Toronto, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - July 18, 2024) - Cybeats Technologies Corp. (CSE: CYBT) (OTCQB: CYBCF) ("Cybeats'' or the "Company"), a company bringing industry-leading cybersecurity technology to the global market, provides an update following its results for fiscal 2023 and its first quarter ending March 31, 2024. Cybeats achieved a year-over-year revenue increase of 693%, and a Q1 2024 revenue increase of 121%, as compared to Q1 2023.

Cybeats experienced significant commercial growth that has continued to validate its technology and approach, and supports its leadership role in the software supply chain security sector. Cybeats closed several new contracts in Q1 and experienced growth from existing client contracts, demonstrating increased product demand. Cybeats has initiated several new pilots in Q2, further expanding its pipeline, and currently sees over 85% of pilots convert into commercial contracts.

"Thanks to some favourable tailwinds and the dedication of our team, we have seen promising results this year. With a commercially validated product suite and significant ARR growth, we have successfully fortified our product-market fit and value proposition. Our year-to-date growth has been bolstered by strong additions to our sales pipeline and driven by an urgent and growing need for our service. The increasing frequency of cyber attacks, heightened regulatory focus on software supply chain security, and the rising demand for software transparency have all contributed to the growth of our market. We remain optimistic about our ability to build on this momentum for the remainder of the year and beyond," Justin Leger, CEO, Cybeats.
