Management Commentary
Chief Executive Officer Dr.
This impressive list of achievements reflects stellar execution throughout our entire organization and speaks to tremendous growth opportunities as we leverage our unique approach to chemistry as a common value creation platform to drive market share gains through our differentiated solutions. We are excited about the next generation of our JP3 Verax Near InfraRed measurement system, which will scale our Data Analytics segment more quickly and is expected to deliver associated revenue growth of greater than 50% in 2024. We also anticipate sustained growth in reservoir centric and international chemistry revenues as we expand our global footprint."
