Ajay’s appointment as the next CEO of OSI Systems. Ajay’s extensive
knowledge of our business and his industry expertise make him the
perfect successor. During his tenure, Ajay has led our Security
division through significant growth, adoption of new business
models, timely and targeted investment in emerging technologies,
geographic expansion, acquisitions, and multiple business cycles. I
look forward to working closely with Ajay in my position as
Executive Chairman to support OSI's mission and foster continued
growth and innovation.”

leadership as the founder and CEO of OSI. I am excited to take on
the CEO role at OSI Systems. Having been part of this Company's
journey, I have seen the potential in each of our operating
divisions and the talented individuals who have been key to our
success. I look forward to continuing OSI’s mission.”
Dr. William F. Ballhaus, Jr., OSI’s Lead Independent Director,
stated, “I have worked with Ajay for the past 14 years in my role
on the Board of Directors and have witnessed his focus, dedication,
and growth as a senior executive. He has demonstrated the ability
to face day-to-day business challenges and turn them into
advantages in the marketplace for OSI. His deep understanding of
the Company's operations, culture, and his strategic vision for
serving customer needs throughout the world all position him to
lead OSI into the future. I look forward to Ajay bringing that type
of leadership to all of OSI.”
