FREMONT, Calif, Aug. 21, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Actelis Networks, Inc. (NASDAQ:ASNS) ("Actelis" or the "Company"), a market leader in cyber-hardened, rapid deployment networking solutions for IoT and broadband applications, today announced that it has started the process of an operational restructuring to reach increased efficiency in delivering customer value and improve market focus, while reducing expenses. The initiative targets a reduction of approximately 20% of the Company's expenses and is expected to be implemented gradually through the end of 2025, while strengthening the sales focus and customer delivery.
"We are working to increase our customer focus while becoming more efficient in how we invest our resources" , said Tuvia Barlev, Chairman and CEO of Actelis. "We are planning to maximize efficiency by leveraging AI, outsourcing , offshoring to lower cost geographies, and automation. As part of this, we plan to minimize our spending on facilities and G&A, while introducing an optimized organizational structure, integrating new hires in key positions and reducing management overhead. In parallel, we are laser focused on enhancing our growth and delivery to customers by directing more sales and marketing resources to higher growth verticals and geographies. We are committed to creating maximum shareholder and stakeholder value."
Key Components of the Reorganization will include:
Technology-Enabled Activity Optimization: The Company is working to accelerate sales, R&D, and operational tasks, alongside adjusting team setups in R&D, sales, operations and G&A using AI and automation tools. Once implemented, these changes will enhance delivery and growth while maintaining operational capabilities and reducing costs.
Improving Operational Efficiency: The Company plans on conducting a series of operational efficiency improvements including office consolidation, outsourcing of certain activities, and expanding offshore partnerships in lower cost geographies. Actelis aim to optimize its real estate footprint while maintaining its market presence, alongside leveraging cost-effective on-shore and off-shore capabilities for select operational functions without compromising quality or security standards.
Moving Towards More Software, Less Hardware: Actelis is planning to gradually focus on software (SW) development in network management and cyber security, and less on in-house hardware (HW) development. Necessary HW development and manufacturing will gradually be transitioned to offshore partners in lower cost geographies.
Focusing and Strengthening Sales: Following the hiring of the Company's new Chief Revenue Officer with a specific focus on US Federal and Local Government, and the hire of our new Director of Federal Sales, Actelis is planning to continue investing and strengthening its sales force in areas where revenue growth is imminent and profitability is highest
The optimization plan is expected to be implemented by the end of 2025, ensuring no disruption to customer service and ongoing sales. This measured approach allows the Company to maintain operational continuity while capturing such efficiency gains. Actelis remains committed to its core mission of delivering innovative, secure networking solutions for critical infrastructure applications while building a more efficient operational foundation and excelling at delivering maximum customer value.
