Unprecedented Backlog Growth

We remain committed to closing the gap between our fundamental performance and our shareholder value."

Shareholder Meeting & Future Outlook

Management will provide a comprehensive financial update and a multi-year growth roadmap during the Annual Shareholder Meeting on Thursday, March 19, 2026. The company expects to provide updated 2026 revenue guidance that reflects the full-year impact of this acquisition.
