Management Comments
Commenting on the fiscal third quarter ended June 30, 2024, Brian Haugli, President and Chief Executive Officer of SideChannel, said, "This is our second consecutive quarter of positive cash flow from operations. The expense reductions we implemented over one year ago, combined with our consistent revenue growth have put us in positive cash flow territory." Haugli continued, "We have begun using a portion of our quarterly cash flow to fund investments in our sales and marketing team, including additional emphasis on Enclave. We are eager to communicate how our novel approach to microsegmentation is proving to be a significantly cost-effective alternative to using hardware."
