EASTON, PA / ACCESS Newswire / March 31, 2025 / Paragon Technologies, Inc. (OTC PINK:PGNT), a diversified holding company, today announced its financial results for the full year ended December 31, 2024.

"Paragon generated a return for shareholders comparable to last year despite the drag of significant legal costs in both 2024 and 2023 related to litigation initiated by the company's former Chairman and CEO and legal costs associated with the Ocean Power Technologies pursuit. Legal expense in 2024 totaled $896,392 versus $1,963,842 in 2023. From an operating perspective, our distribution business, SED, continues to build momentum and our automation business, SI Systems, provided results consistent with the prior year but still below historical results and our expectations," said Sam Weiser, interim CEO of Paragon Technologies. "With the benefit of input from our new independent directors, we continue to evaluate Paragon's portfolio of assets to optimize operational efficiency, drive revenue growth and strategically manage asset allocation to support our subsidiary operations while divesting non-profitable, non-strategic assets and considering strategic acquisitions."

Mr. Weiser highlighted the company's strategic shift, commenting, "Paragon Technologies today is focused on becoming an operationally focused, growth-driven business. Over the past four months, we've begun transforming Paragon Technologies. The board has reinforced its commitment to robust corporate governance by adopting new committee charters, adopting enhanced corporate policies and separating the CEO and Chairman roles. The addition of these three highly qualified, independent directors to our board in December 2024, each bringing diverse expertise in finance, strategy, and operations, signifies dedication to our vision and creation of long-term shareholder value. Collectively, we continue to carefully consider and implement initiatives aligned with our overarching strategic vision to create shareholder value through sustainable and responsible growth. We look forward to sharing our comprehensive growth strategy in the coming weeks."
