"Our first half results show that our structural transformation is delivering measurable progress," said Arthur Giterman, Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer. "Despite a challenging demand environment across the education technology sector, we expanded gross margins, reduced operating expenses by 35%, narrowed net loss by 30%, improved Adjusted EBITDA by 52%, and significantly reduced operating cash usage. We remain focused on disciplined execution, liquidity management, and continued growth in our SaaS and services businesses."
