Challenges Ahead
- Potential variability in quarterly revenue due to on-going market conditions in the Energy Solutions segment.
- Decrease in revenue for the Intelligent Industrial segment was primarily due to lower demand for our imaging products.
- Historically for our water-related offerings, the first quarter of the fiscal year usually results in less revenue due in part to seasonality of utility-related deployments as well as the municipal government budget cycle, which typically begins in October.
- Lower utilization of the OBX rental fleet.
- Capital expenditure budget of $6 million and does not anticipate significant increases to the rental fleet given current market conditions.
