Management Commentary
"Calendar 2024 was a pivotal year for Boardwalktech as we repositioned our go-to-market strategy, signed early adopters of Unity Central, expanded our Velocity implementation at a top 5 U.S. bank with our partners, launched our first major business processing outsourcing (BPO) client, and closed a $4 million line of credit," said Andrew T. Duncan, Chief Executive Officer of Boardwalktech. "Our 'land and expand' strategy continues to be a key growth driver as evidenced by our 39% compounded annual growth rate over the past 3 years from SaaS license recurring revenues; our pipeline continues to scale with several engagements in the latter stages; major global enterprises have validated our solutions and the value they deliver; and our partners have introduced us to new prospects and markets. We have also already recognized over $0.9 million of savings year-to-date in Fiscal 2025, at the higher end of the $600,000 to $800,000 range we previously disclosed. All of these achievements give us reason to be optimistic about Boardwalktech's prospects in the upcoming year and beyond."
