Phunware CEO Mike Snavely commented, "We continue to build on the momentum we began last quarter, driven by several major client renewals in the hospitality and healthcare sectors early in the second quarter. Our software bookings are up nearly 10x over the prior six-month period which is a testament to the effectiveness of our revamped sales team and evolving sales model, which continues to drive a strong pipeline while reducing the length of our sales cycle.
"Our go-forward strategy continues to evolve as we evaluate both the business coming in and the business we are actively pursuing, and we have begun to prudently activate our marketing spend, all designed to continue to encourage our current customers to renew early. We look forward to discussing our continued growth and demonstrate our increasing strength in the market, reminding customers and investors alike that we have long been leaders in this space and that we intend to continue to forge ahead as leaders in the mobile space," Mr. Snavely concluded.
