Westell Technologies, Inc., a leading provider of high-performance network infrastructure solutions,  announced results for its fiscal 2021 first quarter ended June 30, 2020 (FY21 1Q). As previously announced, in light of the ongoing proposed reverse/forward split transaction, the Company has decided to forego the quarterly investors call. Information concerning the proposed transaction is set forth in the definitive proxy statement for the Company’s 2020 annual meeting of stockholders, which was filed with the SEC on Schedule 14A on August 11, 2020. Stockholders are urged to read the definitive proxy statement carefully.

“We saw a strong start to the new fiscal year as revenues increased by $1.2 million over the previous quarter, FY20 Q4. Customer orders in the first quarter improved over what we believe was a COVID-19 related slowdown last quarter. Westell’s supply chain delivery also improved and enabled the Company to fill delayed customer orders. The Westell team did a tremendous job of working with our customers and delivering products during difficult circumstances.We also saw new product revenue. The first Crossfire Cellular DAS system, a key part of our new product growth strategy, shipped during the first quarter with revenue of nearly $0.2 million. Additional systems worth approximately $0.4 million in revenue are expected to ship during the second quarter. The first systems are already installed and are providing superior in-building cellular coverage,” said Westell’s President and CEO Tim Duitsman.
