| So it’s got a great reputation |
| Improving cash performance is a top priority in the fourth quarter and in 2024 |
| This acquisition solidified Vislink's position as the leader in the Airborne Video Downlink or AVDS market, extending our reach across OEMs and end customers, including key players in the emerging drone communications and control networks market |
| We believe this positions us for near-term top line growth ahead of our initial projections |
| Financially, our cost management efforts lowered our breakeven point alongside a noteworthy sequential rebound in total revenue led by core MilGov revenue growth of 34% year-over-year and improved key profitability measures, including a 10.6% increase in quarterly gross profit and a reduction in net loss by about $800,000 in Q3 |
| We’ve also strengthened our software and service sales, enhancing our recurring revenue streams |
| Cliq OFDM transmitter demand remains strong as it enables live broadcasts to capture more dynamic content |
| With a solid sales pipeline and a focus on financial sustainability, we believe we can achieve success in Q4 and throughout 2024 |
| In product innovation, we achieved early success with LiveLink, our cutting edge bonded cellular transmitter |
| Our attachment strategy for software and services diversifies our revenue sources and strengthen our client relationships, ultimately fostering retention and a healthier sales pipeline |
| While it’s early in the partnership, we anticipate strong growth opportunities in our Live Production segment |
| We were only 7.5 weeks into the integration of BMS into our platform, but we are very encouraged about the possibilities to serve a wide audience and grow revenues accordingly |
| When combined with our LinkMatrix solution, it creates an all encompassing workflow management platform, enhancing operational efficiency for customers and generating valuable recurring revenue streams through integrated service level agreements for Vislink |
| We have steadily improved our services revenue throughout the year |
| In summary, the third quarter exemplified our transformation and growth behind our recent acquisition of BMS assets, our robust sales funnel, and improving sales and operations, we believe we are well positioned to continue improving our market position and financial performance |
| This order highlights the enduring value of our wireless camera systems in live event scenarios and demonstrates our ability to capitalize on significant opportunities in this dynamic market |
| They have a great track record and have incumbent customers throughout the world, particularly in EMEA and with federal agencies here in the U.S |
| Our gross profit margin for the third quarter of 2023 was 54%, an improvement from 49% in the third quarter of 2022 |
| The improvement in our gross margin resulted from MilGov mix improvements and cost savings in components |
| Our partnership with FocalPoint VR enhances production quality and generates recurring revenue through an annual service level agreement by facilitating crucial data communication between the race cars and their control systems |
| Again, we're very excited about this combination |
| BMS has a strong position with military and public safety agencies throughout the Middle East |
| So we'll continue to report updates on that, but we're very encouraged by what we see in the early days, and we expect this to be very positive to our results in the future |
| As we secure contracts with prominent law enforcement agencies, we expect our enhanced visibility to further enrich our pipeline across the Americas and globally |
| We believe our strong debt-free balance sheet gives us the flexibility to continue investing in high return on investment opportunities that align with our long-term growth potential |
| As our results show, our MilGov segment has demonstrated consistent growth over the past several quarters and we've successfully established a prominent position in the AVDS market |
| Our momentum buoyed by favorable industry conditions, is expected to further accelerate following our acquisition of important BMS assets |
| So I think as we get a better track record of seeing now this combined BMS-Vislink capability with their incumbency that they have with so many customers, I think we’ll get a better feel and be able to – in the future be able to project that |
| In Q3, we made solid progress in our ongoing transformation, maintaining our strong focus on the growing public safety market |
| It enhances our international presence, particularly in EMEA, and opens opportunities for us to introduce and promote our products within BMS’ traditional networks |

| Through COVID, they ran into some liquidity challenges |
| The cash outflow experience in the third quarter was primarily influenced by lower than expected revenue volume in the second quarter of 2023 |
| Turning to our profitability measures, we recorded an operating loss of $2.3 million compared to $2.8 million in the prior year period |
| EBITDA for the third quarter of 2023 was a loss of $2 million compared to a loss of $2.3 million in the prior year period |
| Additionally, approximately 5 million in shipments from the third quarter were delivered within the final two weeks of the quarter, leading to a deferral of cash collection to the fourth quarter in accordance with our standard net 30 day payment terms |
| Adjusted EBITDA non-GAAP metrics for the third quarter of 2023 was a loss of $1.4 million compared to a loss of $1.9 million in the third quarter of 2022 |
| Total expenses in the third quarter of 2023 were $9.5 million, a 5% decrease from $9.9 million for the same period in 2022 |
| They were uncapitalized and they weren’t able to make it through |
| On the AeroLink, we didn’t have a great quarter on AeroLink, even with our numbers |
| So I'm curious, is the pricing power historically different internationally? Would there be some sort of pressure on margins for more international demand? Mickey Miller I think when you take a look at some of the opportunities that we've looked at, for instance, we announced the ASPIRE order |
| And so we haven't seen pressures on the margins outside the U.S |
