"The results for the quarter are trending in the right direction, extremely encouraging and are starting to reflect the scale of our operations and what should be expected in terms of metrics from the NaaS business model", said Jim Bailey, CFO of NuRAN Wireless. "Looking forward, we expect our SG&A to remain relatively flat while we drive towards positive EBITDA. We finalized two major financings at the start of Q3 representing a turning point for NuRAN as we anxiously add new sites to build scale. We look to replicate the proven site economics in Cameroon by deploying sites in inventory, with low incremental spend required, in Cameroon and DRC. We'll also use these funds to build critical mass in new recently signed countries working with our strategic partners and new investors and lenders to continue to extend communications in hard-to-reach rural locations".

NuRAN Wireless的CFO Jim Bailey表示:「本季度的業績走勢符合預期,非常令人鼓舞,並開始反映出我們的業務規模和NaaS商業模式的指標應該達到的水平。展望未來,我們預計SG&A費用將保持相對穩定,同時我們將朝着實現正面EBITDA的目標努力。我們在第三季度初完成了兩項重大融資,這是NuRAN的一個轉折點,我們將急切地增加新站點以擴大規模。我們計劃在喀麥隆部署存貨中的站點,幾乎不需要額外的支出,並擴大在喀麥隆和剛果民主共和國部署站點的規模。我們還將利用這些資金與我們的戰略合作伙伴、新投資者和貸款人一起在新簽署合約的國家建立關鍵的媒體傳播,以繼續延伸到偏遠地區的通信。」
