“Cybersecurity has never been more relevant – to business leaders, state heads and consumers. Exclusive Networks has a mission to drive the transition to a totally trusted digital future. Our IPO is a natural step in our evolution and will accelerate our simple, proven strategy: to extend our international reach, expand our services offering and add value to our existing customer and vendor relationships. It will also enable us to continue acquiring companies that complement our culture, capabilities and reach.

We will continue investing in our talented cybersecurity specialist teams, who are the key to our success. I would like to personally thank not just our people, but also the vendors and channel partners we work with every day. None of this would be possible without their commitment to innovation, which has driven Exclusive Networks’ growth from a small private company two decades ago to the global cybersecurity specialist we are today – and a 36% gross sales CAGR since 2013. We plan to continue to capture the long-term growth drivers in the cyber market, and our IPO is an important step for us to achieve that goal.”
