“I am proud that we delivered the strongest year of performance in our company’s history. From a financial perspective, we generated exceptional growth in revenue, earnings, and free cash flow for the quarter and the year,” Casper added.
The company however did not provide the annual guidance for 2021 but noted it will be disclosed later in the day.
