Seckin Arikan, Chairman of the Board, Route Mobile and CEO, Proximus Global, commented, “Our performance this quarter reflects solid profitable growth. Despite a transitional period in parts of the portfolio, disciplined execution drove solid margin expansion thanks to strong seasonal contributions across regions. I would like to congratulate Mr. Agnihotri on his appointment as CEO and am confident his industry experience will drive our continued growth. I also extend sincere thanks to Mr. Gupta for his leadership in shaping Route Mobile’s success and look forward to benefiting from his continued expertise as Managing Director and Advisor to the Board. As we advance our strategy, we remain committed to building a scalable, differentiated business supported by a solid pipeline and the strengths of Proximus Global.”
Rajdipkumar Gupta, MD, Route Mobile, added, “Q3 25-26 saw slightly downward revenue as we managed a transitional period in certain segments of our business. More importantly, our gross margins have strengthened considerably, driven by new customer additions in higher-margin segments, demonstrating the effectiveness of our portfolio optimization strategy. I am grateful to our teams across geographies for their dedication and agility in executing this strategic shift while delivering consistent service quality to our customers.”
