• Subsequent to the end of the quarter, Siyata received a $2.2 million purchase order for a US Tier 1 wireless carrier for SD7, VK7 and various accessories

VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / May 16, 2022 / Siyata Mobile Inc. SYTA SYTAW))) (“Siyata“or the”Company“), a global provider of Push-to-Talk over Cellular (PoC) devices and cellular signal booster systems, announced its financial results for the three months ended March 31, 2022.

“During the first quarter, we strengthened the foundation for our North American launch of the SD7, our newest rugged push-to-talk device, and accompanying vehicle kit accessory, the VK7,” said Marc Seelenfreund, founder and CEO of Siyata. “The recent approval of a National Broadband Network for First Responders and certification of SD7, allowing first responders to leverage specialized capabilities designed to meet their needs, is a game-changer and should accelerate sales growth over the next few quarters, as evidenced by the $2.2 million purchase order we recently received for a US Tier 1 wireless carrier.
