“Throughout the second half of CY 2021 we have continued to see demand improvement as the economy has reopened and businesses are returning to pre-pandemic operations,” said Saagar Govil, Cemtrex CEO. “In response we are investing in sales and marketing staff across the board to grow our business and increased R&D spend to drive innovation. We expect these investments to drive top line growth over the next two to three years. Additionally, we continue to evaluate acquisition opportunities for strategic growth. Operationally we are advancing our product development and pipelines across all our brands."
“This year we made substantial progress in our product roadmap by releasing a brand new NDAA compliant state-of-the-art camera line, a new high end sever line, as well as some exciting products like our 360-degree multisensor camera and thermal kiosk camera. Vicon will be launching a proprietary AI based analytics solution next year as well as major improvements to its core software platform Valerus. We remain positive on our outlook for Vicon as the Security Technology market continues to improve and with on-going investment into the product roadmap and business we expect ongoing momentum with our internationally recognized brand."
“In the first quarter of 2021, we announced the next generation SmartDesk, the SmartDesk Connect. The product is an evolution of original patented SmartDesk, providing many of the same features but also allowing users to use their own laptop instead of a built-in PC. SmartDesk has experienced some supply chain and delivery issues over the last two quarters resulting in limited product deliveries of SmartDesk Connect. However, we expect these issues to resolve in CY21 Q4 and we plan to ramp up our sales and marketing efforts thereafter."
“Bravo Strong has continued with the development of our first VR game and expects a beta release of StarForceVR in Oculus Quest App Lab in CY22 Q1. StarForce VR is a first-person shooter experience that is based off the popular sci-fi series, Star Force, by BV Larson and we expect interest for this game based on this bestselling author’s series."
“Looking ahead we are highly committed on executing our development roadmap of next generation high tech products in IoT, AR & VR, as well as in Artificial Intelligence and Machine Vision for security applications. Our positive outlook for 2022 is driven by a focus on innovation and product development, and by the achievements of our operating brands. We expect an improvement in our business as the pandemic recedes and with our operational investments are well positioned for long term growth,” concluded Govil.
