After many years of being a research company, it is with great pleasure that I can announce our first commercial contract that will generate revenues for the company going forward. Our research and development service being utilized by Xpention is a business unit of the Company that we expect great things out of both now and in the future. We expect many more of these type and scope of contracts that should provide the Company with sustainable revenues and the organic growth our business plan outlines."
