About Backlog and Other Operating Metrics
* Total pipeline, as used in this release, refers to the aggregate value of proposals and quotations submitted by Rimon and Tiltan to customers that have not yet been approved, awarded, or converted into binding purchase orders or contracts as of the date indicated.
