VirTra reports Q1 EPS 11c, consensus 12c

Reports Q1 revenue $8.1M, consensus $8.56M. CEO John Givens stated, “The first quarter of 2024, while showing a dip in revenue, marked another period of strategic execution as we continue to build on the transformative groundwork laid over the past two years. The anticipated revenue fluctuation was primarily due to the cyclical nature of budget allocations, often skewed towards year-end, coupled with the impact of the U.S. government’s continuing resolution, and the completion of a large portion of our capital backlog in 2023. We remain optimistic that the integration of new sales strategies and team members will begin to influence our financial results as the year progresses, especially as these initiatives mature and the U.S. government budget resolutions advance, catalyzing purchasing decisions. The forthcoming launch of V-XR is set to broaden the scope of our training solutions, tailored to all agency sizes and budgets. This new platform will also expand our market reach into sectors such as healthcare and education. With V-XR, we are cultivating a frontier for continued growth and reinforcing our position as a leader in producing effective training outcomes… As our strategic initiatives continue to take root throughout 2024, we are well-positioned to capitalize on the opportunities presented by our upcoming technology introductions and growing content library.”
