Revenues grew 2.5 times faster than operating expenses and increased 828% over the same time last year and 160% over the previous quarter. During the quarter, the Company focused on keeping operating expenses under control; this together with the increased sales resulted in an improvement in EBITDA(1) to -$3,108,448, with the average burn-rate down to just over $1 million per month.
