"Over the past three quarters, we have made significant strides toward our vision of becoming the world's largest OEM and VAR supplier for automated steering and machine control technology in the precision ag industry," said Dave Vaughn, CEO of AgJunction. "Our Novariant acquisition advanced AgJunction to a preeminent position in our industry, combining strong product portfolios and industry-leading intellectual property.

"The integration is progressing as expected and we are well underway in our plan to improve operating efficiencies and reduce costs across our platform. Supporting this progress, we have added exceptional leadership to our existing executive resources that we believe is the right team to drive future success.
