PCTEL Reports Third Quarter Financial Results


PCTEL, Inc. (Nasdaq: PCTI) announced its results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2021.

Highlights

"Despite the significant supply chain issues that impacted our revenues, we're encouraged that our earnings were within our guidance and our revenue was modestly below guidance," said David Neumann, PCTEL's CEO. "Demand for our products remains strong as evidenced by another sequential increase in orders. We continue to invest in exciting new 5G products, including the Gflextm scanning receiver, new 5G/IoT antenna platforms and industrial IoT devices. The Gflex scanning receiver opens new opportunities in the government signal intelligence market and we believe market demand for our 5G, vehicular and IIoT products will remain high through next year."
