Special Notes:

It is anticipated that revenues and expenses may vary, perhaps materially, from quarter to quarter due to several factors, including changes in product mix, costs related to planned increase in market share, global expansion costs and ongoing corporate development initiatives.  Although revenues may fluctuate from quarter to quarter, and such fluctuations may be material, management expects that revenues will increase year over year.

There are no known trends or seasonal impacts on the Company’s business although seasonal trends may develop as the Company grows.

 

Appointment of Ralph Garcea as Chair of the Board

The Company also announces that the Board of Directors has appointed Ralph Garcea to the role of Chairman, separating the role of CEO and Chair into two independent functions, adhering to best practices and improving its corporate governance.

Derek Spratt, Chief Executive Officer of the Company stated “The appointment of Ralph Garcea to the role of Chair of the Board is indicative of our firm and resolute belief in adhering to the best practices in corporate governance.
