"Our preliminary financial results show us on track to achieving our goal of positive adjusted EBITDA for the June quarter.

"The improvements are being driven by the work we have put into lowering our operating expenses, in combination with improving aftermarket service margins and a small rebound in product shipments versus the fiscal 2020 fourth quarter," added Mr. Jamison.
