SuperCom Expands into 20th New U.S. State with New Electronic Monitoring Contract in Illinois

County Sheriff's Office to Deploy SuperCom's PureOne GPS Technology for Newly Established Work-Release Program

NEW YORK, Sept. 8, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- SuperCom (NASDAQ: SPCB), a global provider of secure solutions for the e-Government, IoT, and Cybersecurity sectors, today announced that it has secured a direct county-level electronic monitoring contract in Illinois to support a county sheriff's office in launching its newly established work-release program. The agency selected SuperCom's PureOne GPS technology to monitor participants while they are outside the county jail as part of the program. This contract marks SuperCom's first in the state of Illinois and expands the Company's U.S. footprint to 20 new states since mid-2024.

Training and deployment are scheduled to commence in October 2026, with PureOne serving as the program's electronic monitoring platform from launch. The contract was awarded following standard field tests and will follow a recurring revenue model.

"We are pleased to launch a new county program with a sheriff's office in Illinois, expanding our U.S. footprint into another new state while supporting a newly established program," commented Ordan Trabelsi, President and CEO of SuperCom. "This contract adds a new state to our footprint and demonstrates that PureOne can serve both as a compelling replacement for legacy systems and as a technology foundation for agencies seeking to introduce electronic monitoring programs for the first time."

"Our U.S. expansion has continued to advance on multiple fronts," Trabelsi continued. "Across more than 45 new electronic monitoring contracts secured in the U.S. since mid-2024, we have entered new states, built deeper positions within existing markets, displaced incumbent systems and supported new program launches. This breadth, together with our success across Europe, where we achieved more than 20 national project wins, reflects the versatility of our technology and execution capabilities. SuperCom's financial results further demonstrate the scalability of our business model: our electronic monitoring business expanded at a compound annual rate of approximately 30% over the four-year period ending in 2025, while our EBITDA¹ increased at a compound annual rate of approximately 47% over the same period. In the second quarter of 2026, our EBITDA grew approximately 58% year-over-year. We remain focused on building on this foundation as we pursue our mission to revolutionize public safety through electronic monitoring technology and complementary services."
