Summary Third Quarter Results

For the three months ended March 31, 2017, the Company reported a net loss of $2,171,822, or $0.04 loss per common share, as compared to a net loss of $570,449 or $0.02 loss per common share for the three months ended March 31, 2016.  The increase in net loss is primarily due to increases in salaries, wages, benefits and stock-based compensation as a result of the Company’s hiring of additional employees, as well as the appointment of a new BAB member, to support its global growth strategy.
