Bull points

- revenues were hosted at $120 million as compared to a prior year of $122 million on a combined company basis, and that represents a decline of 1.6% year on year. However, it also represents sequential growth of just over 15.5% on Q1. And for those of you who have been tracking the company, we'll see that that's about five percentage points ahead of prior year on a combined company basis, so momentum building.
- breadth and the scale and the diversity of the combined Informatech target play the loudest. And therefore, we have been investing in and focusing more of our resources, our marketing resources, our sales resources, our customer success, and indeed even our product management to better serve and address the needs of these customers.
Bear points
