Management Commentary
Matt Darin, Chief Executive Officer, stated:

“…One of the key drivers behind our shift towards focusing on sustainable, profitable organic growth [is] by maintaining share in challenged markets and growing share where we see strategic opportunity. One example is in our international business, which was a highlight this quarter, as it grew 82% year-over-year and 17% quarter over quarter to $30 million dollars. By design, our global presence offers a diversification of revenue streams that mitigates concentration risk.”
