They are delighted with their achievements this quarter, which included excellent sales, profits, EPS, and operational cash flow. The high application-driven requirement for their Bluetooth scanners continues to drive overall sales. The application partners’ clients may be more efficient and productive owing to the Bluetooth scanners.
They implemented a number of strategic steps to enhance their inventory in 2020 and over the last nine months. In the midst of continuous industry-wide electronic component shortages and delays, the goal was to be able to provide services to their application partners. They are committed to resolving delivery and supply challenges so that they may continue to serve their clients.
