BUSINESS UPDATE
During the second quarter of fiscal 2018, the Company advanced the following initiatives:
- Negotiated the purchase of assets of Spector Logistics Inc., a US-based video installation and support company that provided contract services to Southeastern Pennsylvania Transportation Authority, the 5th largest transit system in the US.
- Launched the G4 716 Network Video Recorder (NVR) for the public transit market. G4 716 NVR is a full-featured IP recorder that records up to sixteen 1080p cameras at 30 frames per second.
- Initiated a national sales campaign for a new Y35 high definition recorder for the school bus market. The Y35 records five cameras and has the ability to push back video upon alarm conditions, such as a vehicle hard deceleration, which allows transportation managers to study poor driving habits and investigate accidents. A driver alarm can also be activated which sends emergency situation video to a command center using Gatekeeper’s enterprise software.
- Released a new version of “Health Check” software, which automatically reports when a Gatekeeper device is not working, or has been vandalized, allowing transportation managers to be proactive in system maintenance, to reduce missing video evidence.
- Continued to advance the 23 installed stop-arm camera systems under evaluation, which involve 1,829 buses owned by various school districts. The Company has five stop-arm camera system installations currently in operation.
Doug Dyment, President and CEO commented, “We are pleased with our advances during the second fiscal quarter of 2018. We are very optimistic about the significant potential in the transit market, and look forward to leveraging our recent acquisition of assets from Spector Logistics Inc. within this industry vertical.”
