Coda Octopus (NASDAQ: CODA) is expected to drive future revenue growth over the next 2-3 years through several key initiatives and market trends:

1. Expansion of the Diver Augmented Vision Display (DAVD) Program: The DAVD system is a significant growth area for Coda Octopus. The company has seen successful deliveries to the U.S. Navy and has secured new orders from a major European Navy, with management anticipating DAVD product line revenue to reach approximately $4 million in fiscal year 2025, a substantial increase from $1.2 million in fiscal year 2024.
2. Strategic Mergers and Acquisitions (M&A): The acquisition of Precision Acoustics in October 2024 has already contributed significantly to Coda Octopus's revenue, diversifying its revenue streams and expanding its addressable markets. The company has indicated that M&A remains a core strategic priority for future growth.
3. Increased Engagement in the Global Defense Sector: Coda Octopus is actively pursuing and experiencing expanding opportunities within the defense sector, including direct engagement with the U.S. Department of Defense. The company has ongoing proposals for integrated DAVD and Echoscope technologies and is benefiting from increased defense spending commitments, particularly in Europe.
