Vislink reported a 26% year-over-year increase in revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, with $24.4 million in revenue.

This system enables improved decision-making through real-time data access, reduced operational costs, and increased agility in responding to market changes. Furthermore, Vislink implemented a restructuring plan to streamline operations and reduce costs, expected to achieve over $6 million in annualized cost savings beginning in Q4 2024.

The company also appointed Joseph Lipowski as Chief Technology Officer, who will lead the product development team and spearhead the Company's next-generation platform for radio-agnostic crewed and uncrewed aerial command, control, and video systems. Vislink introduced the 5G DragonFly V, its miniaturized HEVC 5G transmitter, and launched a new corporate brand identity and website to drive global growth and strengthen market leadership.
