The company noted that it has continued to invest in its intellectual property portfolio during the year, making progress on its software and image display projects, which will come into play in the near future.
"It has been a strong year for Polarean, and we have achieved some significant milestones during the period," said Chief Executive Richard Hullihen. "We look forward to further positive updates throughout the rest of the year."
