Richard Soloway, Chairman and President stated, “Increasing demand for ‘Connected Home’ and school security products are helping to drive improved financial performance, contributing to top- and bottom-line Q2 results not seen in five years. In addition, our subscription-based service product lines, which deliver recurring revenue income streams, continue to show impressive and accelerating growth. Our iBridge™ Connected Home, iSee Video™ remote video and StarLink™ wireless communicator product lines are all vibrantly growing in activations and market penetration and we are capitalizing on the increasing consumer interest in broadband, internet-based, remote control home automation. We are making steady progress in educating and training our dealer network, and as consumer demand for these connected solutions increases, our dealers are increasingly turning to NAPCO for solutions.”
“Simultaneously, 2013 saw the unfortunate, seemingly all too frequent, occurrence of shooting events and violent attacks in schools, universities and colleges, as well as public venues such as malls and workplaces,” continued Mr. Soloway. “It has been NAPCO Security Technologies’ mission to play a leadership role in providing effective product locking, access control, and surveillance solutions to this pressing problem. During Q2, we continued the execution of Project LocDown™, a cross-divisional initiative which uniquely positions Marks USA LocDown™ intruder locks, Alarm Lock’s Networx™ wireless locks and Continental Access Control’s card access systems in providing a totally integrated access control and lock-down solution, to address active-shooter threats in the educational community. We have experienced a strong acceleration in sales to the education vertical market.”
Mr. Soloway concluded, “The building blocks for aggressive, sustainable growth, going forward, are in place at NAPCO to maintain our leadership position in mature markets as well as establish ourselves as key players with outstanding products in new ones. With a balanced product portfolio consisting of multiple recurring revenue sources, Connected Home services, and a formidable presence in high gross margin, commercial security solutions, addressing rapidly growing sectors such as education, the Company is well-positioned for substantive future growth, and we believe the best is yet to come.”
