Management Commentary
"In the fiscal third quarter we continued to face reduced web traffic as a result of the ongoing advertising ban implemented by Meta and Google, but we believe that we have begun to turn the corner in recent weeks," said Byrna CEO Bryan Ganz. "While Meta's stance remains unchanged for the time being, we have received permission from Google to advertise on YouTube, and the initial results have been encouraging. Our new partnership with Sean Hannity has also provided a demonstrable increase in web traffic over the last few weeks, which we expect to positively influence our performance in the fiscal fourth quarter and going forward. By engaging in high-value collaborations and exploring alternative advertising opportunities, we are now back on the right path to regaining our website traffic, which will lead to improved sales results over time. Despite the temporary marketing challenges, we are making substantial progress with our internal operations and remain confident that Byrna is well-positioned for long-term, sustainable growth."
Conference Call
Byrna plans to report its full financial results for the fiscal third quarter in October, which will be accompanied by a conference call to discuss the results and address questions from investors and analysts. The conference call details will be announced prior to the event.
