"The results of the second full quarter since the release of MobiKEY validates the Company's go-to-market strategy and are reflective of this early selling stage", said Andrew White, CEO, Route1. "A number of the units sold in the second quarter were within large corporate accounts with the anticipation of significant growth to the MobiNET subscriber base. As we continue to grow our sales and distribution channels and gain exposure into more and more accounts, it is evident that MobiKEY, powered by MobiNET, gives Route1 a clear competitive advantage. By providing secure identity management, MobiKEY delivers more than an easy-to-use remote computing solution; it supports emergency preparedness/disaster recovery, business continuity, and regulatory/corporate compliance needs."
