The topline was driven by growth in North America, partially offset by a decline internationally due to foreign currency headwinds and lower Ukraine revenue.

Products and Systems Integration sales grew by 4%.

Software and Services sales increased by 9%.

The adjusted operating margin was 28.3%, up 160 basis points, driven by higher sales, a favorable mix, and lower direct material costs, partially offset by acquisitions.
