Many industries have been hit by inflation where it hurts the most, our pockets. Inflation is raising the price of goods and services including food, housing, transportation, and medical care.
PAR Technology dealt with a “challenging” third quarter, but the firm is making “progress” on new product development and in adding incremental business in specific hospitality-business lines, Ronald Casciano, president and CEO, said in the news release.
“In our government business we have identified additional opportunities with specific ISR (Intelligence, Surveillance & Reconnaissance) programs as demonstrated by the recently awarded $85 million U.S. Army contract. However, the timing of revenue from these contracts is often difficult to predict, as evidenced by the 17 percent drop in contract revenue for the quarter compared to same period last year. We expect improving business conditions into calendar year 2014, and we continue to invest in products and services that offer long-term organic growth opportunities that are consistent with our business strategy,” Casciano said.
Shares of PAR Technology were trading up 2 cents per share at $5.53 per share early this afternoon, according to Yahoo Finance.
Based in New Hartford, PAR provides hardware and software to the hospitality industry. Products from PAR also can be found in retailers, cinemas, cruise lines, stadiums, and food-service companies. PAR’s government business provides computer-based system design, engineering, and technical services to the U.S. Department of Defense and various federal agencies.
