• As messaged in the Corporation's Q2 2024 earnings release, Q3 2024 operating performance will be sequentially stronger than both Q1 2024 and Q2 2024, driven by several third quarter operational wins, cost control initiatives, and improved performance from Decisive's diversified portfolio of manufacturing businesses, combined with a move into stronger seasonal periods.
• Operating performance is expected to continue improving into Q4 2024 based on enhanced order activity across each of the portfolio businesses, including carryover of orders received in Q3 2024 to be fulfilled in the fourth quarter, and commencement of work under Northside's new contract with a new commercial vehicle customer.
• Further operational wins materializing that will positively impact the first half of 2025 including: significant confirmed orders for Capital I, Hawk, and Unicast on a joint award with an oil and gas customer, confirmed orders for Slimline's larger scale wastewater evaporator, renewed EPA compliance certificates for Blaze King's existing product line up as well as continued progress on regulatory approval of a new product design that utilizes Blaze King's combustion technology styled and sized for sale into the United Kingdom and Europe.
