Management Commentary
"We are very pleased with our results for the first half of our fiscal year 2022 through December 31, 2021, as we continued to see increased demand for our products, which is reflected in our increased revenue," stated, Gary LeCroy, Galaxy's Chief Executive Officer. Despite the three months ended December 31, being traditionally our slowest time of year with schools being closed for the holidays, we generated more revenue than our comparative December 31, 2021 quarter and nearly as much as the previously reported June 30, 2021 quarter."
LeCroy concluded, "We believe we are still in the early stage of a major technology turnover cycle in the K-12 education market, as increased school budgeting is now being spurred by additional federal monies. President Biden has called on Congress to provide at least $130 billion in dedicated funding to schools and $350 billion in state and local relief funds to help school districts close budgets gaps. This commitment at the federal level to get schools the availability of funding should lead to increased opportunities for our in-classroom technology solutions. The way our students learn continues to evolve, and we look forward to being a major participant in it."
Galaxy's Chief Financial Officer, Magen McGahee, stated, "We are proud of our accomplishments to-date, as we have continued to reduce our operating and net losses while we accelerate our revenue growth. We are proving the scalability of our platform and business model with our improving financial condition. We reached a major milestone by crossing over to positive shareholder equity for the first time on our company's history. Our business pipeline remains robust and we are confident in being able deliver against it to be able to further our revenue growth and build shareholder value."
