Closing Comments
==> picture [12 x 14] intentionally omitted <==
-
Steady progress over last 4 years
-
COVID-19 has impacted revenue in FY2021 but with the longer-term demand for 5G, business is still expected to grow
Over the last decade Rakon has built a strong position within the frequency control and timing industry and established an enviable ecosystem of customer relationships that should see your company perform well into the future
