Management Commentary: "2022 was a great year for SuperCom. We extended our business across Europeby winning significant new contracts, typically awarded through a competitive RFP process. We won the largest industry award of the year, valued at $33 million in Romania, and other new projects in Finland, Sweden, and Croatia. In 2022, our revenue from Europe reached $9.6 million, representing 230% YoY growth. We've also been working hard to increase our business presence in the U.S., where we have continued to make progress towards our goals by launching our new proprietary PureOne product and by securing multiple project wins in California, Idaho, Texas, and Wyoming," commented Ordan Trabelsi, President and CEO of SuperCom. "We grew our teams in the recent couple years to strengthen our sales and R&D initiatives in preparation for wider market expansion and larger projects. Consequently, our strategic plan yielded positive results already in the third and fourth quarters, as evidenced by the impressive YoY revenue growth of 102% and 69%, respectively. Furthermore, we were proud to return to positive EBITDA and achieve EBITDA of $0.4 million and $0.77 million in these two quarters, which resulted from targeted spending and high YoY increases in revenue." "SuperCom is highly regarded in the IoT tracking space. Many of these projects are for juvenile and domestic violence offenders, where SuperCom's proprietary technology, scalable infrastructure, and rehabilitative features stand out. Once we launch one successful project with a client, we can easily add more project types, leveraging our infrastructure to provide more value and deepen the customer relationship. Additionally, our ability to customize our solutions to address our client's specific needs while delivering outstanding results has also built SuperCom's reputation." "We have full confidence in our ability to consistently secure a robust pipeline of new projects and wins in the market. To put things into perspective, while the global electronic monitoring market growth was approximately 10% in 2022, SuperCom IoT revenues achieved a staggering 76% growth during the same period. This growth is a testament to the fact that the market prefers our solution over the alternatives. As we continue to gain market share and expand our presence, displacing legacy industry leaders time and time again, we improve our positioning towards future success. We plan to maintain our technology leadership and sales momentum and to grow and build on the growing reputation for excellence that SuperCom has achieved globally," concluded Mr. Trabelsi.
