During the investor conferenece call Michael Berger stated “We believe the improved speed and ease of use of the Focus Premium scanner coupled with stream our new mobile scanning application are key differentiating features that compare favorably against our competitors products. These two repressed product lines represent 75% of our historical hardware revenue. In the second quarter shipments of our scan arm and our laser tracker product lines were sourced from Sanmina, Thailand facility. We continue to be pleased with Sanmina’s quality levels as well as their ability to meet required volumes.
At the end of the second quarter and consistent with our plans, we completed the move of our laser scanner product line to Sanmina. As a result, our manufacturing actual outsource initiative is now largely complete. We continue to believe in the long term financial and operational benefits of this transition. And while the timing of the previously mentioned $12 million in annualized savings is delayed, due to the ongoing disruptions in supply chain, we’re beginning to have line of sight to have phased shifting of supply chain partners to Southeast Asia that will allow us to begin seeing savings in 2023.”
