It continues to leverage its expertise from over 50 years of developing mission critical products. The Company is diversifying its platform and product mix to sustain long-term growth and I’m excited to be joining the organization at such an inflection point in their development. I am eager to work with the Board, as well as Richard Fitzgerald, Bill Hogenauer, Stanley Youtt and the Ranor team, to leverage our manufacturing and human capital to deliver exceptional solutions to customers and superior returns to shareholders. I look forward to meeting our shareholders, providing an update on our progress and answering any questions on the upcoming quarterly conference call in August.”
