"Arht Media delivered strong first quarter results with year-over-year revenue growth of 165 per cent and an improved margin profile, which was driven by increased demand for our holographic technologies across an expanding base of markets, customers and regions," commented Larry O'Reilly, chief executive officer of Arht Media. "During the quarter, we strengthened our balance sheet through the completion of a $7.98-million equity offering. This capital raise also allowed us to focus on executing on our growth strategy and to capitalize on a transformational partnership agreement with the leading global flexible office space provider, WeWork. We view this partnership as a game changing opportunity as we introduce our holographic technology to a new enterprise audience of over 3,500 WeWork members worldwide, make it more convenient for both existing and new clients to access our technology and as a means to drive significant revenue growth as the world's first large-scale HoloPresence network gets rolled out and we are extremely pleased with talent we have added to grow our business."
