He said that Bel Fuse had revamped its finance structure, increased its investor outreach from two to three conferences per year to 13 to 14 in 2022, and implemented its first stock buyback. Tuweiq also described the company's focus on long design cycle businesses such as defense and commercial aerospace. In a separate NASDAQ Amplify Spotlight and an interview with TD Ameritrade (Schwab Network), Tuweiq discussed Bel Fuse's 75-year history, its global operations with 7,000 employees, and its presence in end markets including commercial air, defense, e-mobility, and data centers.

Tuweiq stated that the company was seeing strong demand in commercial air, defense, and e-mobility, and described AI as a "new theme" that would create demand for data center and networking products. He also said that supply chain issues were easing, though some concerns remained around certain components, and that the company had not yet seen a recession despite predictions.
