Letter to shareholders from Buck Marshall, President and Chief Executive Officer
Dear Fellow Shareholders,
As I reflect on my first two weeks as CEO and President of Mission Ready Solutions, I thought it important to address our shareholders in a more casual format than that of a formal news release. My intent, when relevant and necessary, is to communicate with our shareholders on a more frequent cadence, independent of the Company’s ongoing disclosure obligations.
Though I must still adhere to the applicable rules and regulations, my hope is to share my excitement for Mission Ready Solutions, our employees, and our investors. During my first week, I traveled to meet, in person, almost all of our employees. Through these face to face conversations, I have gained valuable insights into the daily challenges they face and the dedication they have for the company. This dedication is exciting to me as I know our future success will depend on the will of our employees to accomplish the tasks ahead.
Further to the numerous sizeable contracts – and follow-on purchase orders – that we’ve recently announced, I would like to add that Protecting Those Who Protect Us is more than merely a slogan, it is a guiding principle. Our Mission Statement is to produce and provide military, fire, rescue and law enforcement with the products and knowledge required to fulfill their unique duties. We accomplish this mission by delivering outstanding products, extensive customer service, continuous education and advanced problem solving to our customers.
Additionally, I think it is important to discuss the current projects we are undertaking as a team. This includes a core system upgrade which will allow our team to work more efficiently and will eliminate barriers so that each member is unencumbered and empowered to excel in their respective roles. This software will unite our sales team, our financial team and our leadership team in real time. This will be invaluable for us as we make critical decisions on an array of fluid issues.
Lastly, I want to thank our employees and investors for your continued support, unwavering dedication and steadfast resolve to push forward during times of both turbulence and celebration. I am confident in my ability to apply structure to our financial position which will equip us to capture revenue opportunities with laser focus. We are building the framework to be competitive on any contract or opportunity going forward. We have turned the corner and the future is bright!
Sincerely,
Buck Marshall
President & CEO
