(NASDAQ: OWLS) (the \"Company\" or “OwlTing”), a technology company operating as the OwlTing Group, today reported a strong operational performance for its SaaS-based hospitality software service, OwlNest. This business unit achieved a 20% year-over-year revenue increase in the first half of 2025, compared to the same period in 2024, based on internal management accounts, representing strong growth relative to broader market trends observed in the hospitality software sector1.
