Keeping People Safe from Civil Unrest and Wildfires

As we enter the second half of 2024, geo-political tensions and a very active wildfire season are increasing demand for Genasys Protective Communications solutions. 

Growth in our software business continues as we landed Genasys Protect contracts from public safety agencies in 13 states between April 1 and June 30. With San Diego County’s May launch, more than 25 million California residents are now covered by Genasys EVAC. EVAC is currently the primary system for quickly disseminating critical public safety information to more than 70% of California.  

Domestic and international LRAD orders are rebounding with recent defense orders from the U.S. Navy, Middle East and Europe. The Puerto Rico dams project received its final oversight approval in late June and is on track to get underway this summer.  The US Army program of record to augment Common Remotely Operated Weapon Stations (CROWS) is active in the early stages of procurement planning.  Finally, a number of law enforcement and other LRAD and ACOUSTICS business opportunities are progressing. 

In June, we welcomed Bill Dodd, retiring California State Senator, and Craig Fugate, former Administrator of FEMA (Federal Emergency Management Agency) to the Board of Directors. Their impact is expected to be material as we position Genasys for significant revenue growth next fiscal year and beyond. 

I invite you to read the rest of our newsletter to learn more about Genasys and our progress in enhancing safety and resilience.
