Items reported in this filing:
Item 7.01: Regulation FD Disclosure
Item 7.01: Regulation FD Disclosure
Today, Mr. Ambrose, President & CEO of Data I/O, met with Open Systems Media at ARM Tech Con, to discuss the SentriX strategy and rollout. In a wide ranging interview, Ambrose disclosed that the Company placed another SentriX system in Q3 to a partner in the USA. He also disclosed that the Company had a sharp increase in bookings during the month of September and the first weeks of October. Finally, he commented on the Company’s strong cash position at the end of the third quarter, which we believe provides the ability to internally finance the SentriX ramp.
