"We are very pleased to see the increase in the Q3 sales order bookings, which is the largest order bookings quarter since mid-2013," said Ronald A. Woessner, COPsync's chief executive officer. "We expect to see the results of these strong order bookings reflected in top-line revenue in the near and medium term. We are also pleased to see the increase in the company's recurring software license fees, which are the bedrock of the company's business model and foundational to the company's future success, and the recurring software license fees gross margins.
