SuperCom (NASDAQ: SPCB) surged 110% after the company announced that it has won a tender with the Israeli government for lease of the Company's proprietary PureHealth Coronavirus(COVID-19) Quarantine Compliance Solution, including the PureCare smartphone and PureTag bracelet, as well as complementary services including installation, training for users, support, monitoring, and reporting.

This nationwide project is expected to commence next week, along with contract signing, for an initial term of 3 months, with an option to be extended for up to 36 months. The project is billed at a per-unit per-day rate is expected to generate approximately $3 million per month in recurring revenues for SuperCom. However, revenue may increase or decrease based on actual usage.

SuperCom formerly completed a successful pilot program in which travelers arriving at Israel's international airport were offered the opportunity to go on home quarantine for 10-14 days with SuperCom's PureCare technology and program. Following high demand – over 91% choosing to opt in for the program – and traveler reported satisfaction, the Israeli Ministry of Health expressed immediate demand for a bracelet-based COVID-19 quarantine solution to support permitting Israel's international airports to open for large numbers of travelers to enter the country on a daily basis.

This further affirms our strategic approach to mitigating the spread of the coronavirus without causing undue intrusion into daily life," commented SuperCom's President and CEO, Ordan Trabelsi.

I would like to thank the great people at SuperCom and our partner companies for their continued hard work and efforts to make this all possible. SuperCom is prepared for the rapid deployment of the Israeli COVID-19 quarantine compliance project and we look forward to continue demonstrating to the world how our large scale, non-invasive technology-driven solution can help in the fight against COVID-19," concluded Ordan.
