"We continue building on our strategies of growing our medical business and globalization to meet our customers’ needs regionally – in the United States, Mexico and China."
Nortech Systems' improved profitability for the quarter was mainly the result of the revenue increase and contributions from its China operations, which is positively contributing in 2017 compared with start-up expenses last year.
