Management Commentary
“Our team continues its excellent execution by driving sales in our wheelchair vehicle sales and service business. These results are a testament to the increasing success of our brands and the successful delivery of our growth plan by our management team,” said Hal Compton, CEO of HASCO Medical. “This year we are anxious to launch the new Ford Explorer based BraunAbility MXV Sport Utility wheelchair accessible SUV and the Chevrolet Suburban based Mobility SVM SUV. These vehicles represent a paradigm shift in the wheelchair accessible vehicle market and Ride-Away® and Mobility Freedom are positioned with trained Mobility Consultants to deliver on customer expectations. I see these vehicles as increasing the accessible market.”

“Our new Commercial Sales Department has already seen success in 2015 with a series of wins in our Boston, Mid-Atlantic and South Florida markets. The new Ford Transit and Dodge ProMaster vehicles are reinvigorating a market that is looking to replace aging Ford E Series vehicles.”

“We are eager to grand open our Parkville, Maryland location on April 17th and 18th, and our new Miami location is currently under construction and we expect it to be complete by Q2 2015.”

“This year represents a number of unique opportunities with vehicle introductions, new Commercial Sales division and store openings. These drivers will enhance our sales and bottom line by better meeting the needs of our customers.”
