Record Bookings & Strong Backlog
Genasys Systems and Solutions in All 50
States
Genasys Inc. (NASDAQ: GNSS), the global leader in Protective
Communications, today provided a recap of the Company’s fiscal year
2024 (FY 2024) business developments that produced record bookings
and strong backlog and discussed Genasys’ fiscal year 2025 (FY
2025) outlook.
Richard Danforth, Chief Executive Officer of Genasys Inc., said,
“In FY 2024, we won a $75 million Puerto Rico dams project award
and secured significant orders from Los Angeles County and the
states of Oregon and New Hampshire. We also reported record
domestic law enforcement orders and a substantial rebound in
international LRAD business. These, and other FY 2024 business
wins, resulted in $111 million in new bookings and a 12-month
backlog of more than $40 million at the September fiscal year
end.
“Our software business starts fiscal 2025 with an ARR of $8.3
million,” continued Mr. Danforth. “Since our early FY 2024
acquisition of Evertel Technologies and its subsequent rebranding,
we have continued to grow Genasys CONNECT to surpass 250 clients
with more than 31,000 active users. These agencies are using
CONNECT to protect more than 50 million people in the U.S.”
Michael Smith, Senior Vice President of Genasys Protect, said,
“Our Genasys Protect suite of ACOUSTICS, ALERT, CONNECT, and EVAC
are proliferating in the U.S. and generating material pipeline and
ARR growth. Of note, the recent use of EVAC by Los Angeles County
first responders and emergency managers was instrumental in keeping
people safe during the Franklin Fire that ravaged Malibu earlier
this month.”
David Schnell, Vice President of Global Hardware Sales, added,
”Renewed LRAD demand from international naval customers and defense
and law enforcement agencies in Africa, the Middle East, and our
APAC region led to an 86% year-over-year increase in international
hardware bookings in FY 2024. Both domestic and international
hardware pipeline and bookings are growing at a steady pace as we
enter calendar 2025.”
Mr. Danforth concluded, “Exiting calendar 2024 with record
bookings and robust backlog, Genasys is incredibly well positioned.
Genasys systems and solutions are now in use in all 50 states. We
have received the $8.0 million deposit for the first group of dams
in Puerto Rico, invoiced to receive the second deposit, and are
aggressively moving to procure, build, and install the
ACOUSTICS-based Early Warning System across all 37 dams for the
PREPA project.
“I want to thank our entire Genasys team for their steadfast
commitment to delivering and supporting world-class Protective
Communications systems and solutions that provide proactive
preparedness, data-driven decision making, secure, inter-agency
collaboration, and multichannel communication that speed emergency
responses and save lives.”
We include in this press release Non-GAAP operational metrics of
backlog and bookings, which we believe provide helpful information
to investors with respect to evaluating the Company’s performance.
Bookings is an internal, operational metric that measures the total
dollar value of customer purchase orders executed in a period,
regardless of the timing of the related revenue recognition.
Backlog is a measure of purchase orders received that are planned
to ship within the next 12 months.
