Q3 2025 was a busy quarter once again for us here at illumynt. In addition to naming a new CEO, we executed on a number of initiatives that are propelling our organization forward.

More importantly we executed three different large-scale data center decommission projects with almost no material ending up as scrap. All of the AI-focused enterprise equipment and components recovered from the decommissions were resold at top market value. We head into Q4 with high expectations and our eyes wide open.
