Recent News Highlights the Growing Market for Patriot One Technologies, Inc.’s (TSX.V: PAT) (OTCQB: PTOTF) High Technology Device

  • Company’s PATSCAN™ Cognitive Microwave Radar (CMR) detects concealed weapons and identifies new threats
  • Report: Airport security market $9 billion in 2016, projected compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7%, 2016–2024
  • Martin Cronin, CEO, calls technology “game changing” in deterring violence before it happens

Patriot One Technologies, Inc. (TSX.V: PAT) (OTCQB: PTOTF) offers technology that can help detect and prevent the numerous near-miss attempts at public areas, such as airports. Recently, a bomb in a glass jar was left in Asheville, North Carolina, regional airport (http://dtn.fm/zlOH7). The FBI was called, neutralized the improvised explosive device, and began hunting for the individual or persons who left it.

Airport security cameras had surveillance footage of the man who left it, then they found a branded bag in the woods from a local sporting goods retailer. They eventually tracked the suspect down through purchases of the bomb making equipment there and at other big box stores. They arrested the suspect and he is in custody.

This is only one example of a near-miss from an improvised bomb. These acts are not as rare as you might think. The article points out that, in just the past year:  explosive devices were left in a hotel in Denver; improvised explosives were found in a Target store in Florida; and man-made bombs that exploded — but did not hurt anyone — were found at a medical center in Georgia. The article suggests that such incidents, though increasingly common, don’t often get as much press coverage unless they are linked to foreign terrorists, and hinted at press bias. Just in airports alone, the security market is estimated at $9 billion in 2017 with a 7% CAGR, 2016–2024, by researcher Global Market Insights (http://dtn.fm/dY7mR). But the product can also be used in hotels and other public areas.

Patriot One Technologies is a Vancouver, Canada-based company with a device that has advanced technology that can detect concealed weapons before an incident can occur. It has developed the PATSCAN™ CMR (Cognitive Microwave Radar), designed to deter, detect, and defend against active shooter threats before they happen. Once deployed, it has the ability to learn and identify new threats. The device had been developed through a NATO-funded project at McMaster University. It has already been awarded the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Declaration of Conformity certification. The company’s goal is to become a world class enterprise to increase public safety and deter acts of violence on a worldwide basis.

Martin Cronin, CEO of Patriot One Technologies, said that his firm is now working with the Westgate Resort in Las Vegas to employ one of its systems (http://dtn.fm/q4MMT). “There’s just such a crying need for solutions to mass violence,” he told the Fox Business Network after the shooting at Mandalay Bay. He said that his company’s systems can be placed discreetly — under floorboards, behind walls or above ceilings. Pulses from its CMR can then detect suspicious hotel guests carrying concealed knives, guns or bombs, he said.

Cronin said that his firm offers “game changing” technology that helps in “detecting the presence of threats coming into a facility.” He added that new security measures should not impede free movement and our “fundamental way of life.” He added that Patriot One Technologies offers an “unobtrusive way of detecting concealed weapons when someone passes through a sensor.”

Skinvisible, Inc. (SKVI) Targets Global Skincare Market Projected to Reach $135B by 2021

  • Owns patented Invisicare® polymer delivery system, prescription and over-the-counter skincare products formulated with Invisicare
  • Business model to grow globally by out-licensing its proprietary and patented product line
  • Developed multiple cannabis-based products with CBD from imported hemp (non-psychoactive), and will continue to develop line utilizing CBD and THC from marijuana

Skinvisible, Inc. (OTCQB: SKVI) is targeting a global skincare market projected to reach $135 billion by 2021 (http://dtn.fm/xEK9T). SKVI also sees a worldwide dermatology market now of $80 billion plus a $30 billion worldwide over-the-counter (OTC) market (http://dtn.fm/mBU1s). It has already completed on the development of 40 products, received numerous technology and product patents, and is now ready to monetize its investment. In the US alone, skincare is projected to reach $10.7 billion by 2018 and the global skincare market is seen growing at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 3.8% from 2016-2021 according to MarketResearch.com (http://dtn.fm/2LTwK).

It seeks to maximize profits on already-licensed products and grow by adding more licenses to established manufacturers and marketers. Skinvisible has recently formed commercial subsidiaries, Kintari International Inc., along with Kintari USA Inc. and Kintari Canada, Inc. It formed the subsidiaries to bring its cosmeceutical and select OTC products to market.

Skinvisible is a Nevada-based R&D company focused on the licensing of its topical formulations made with its proprietary polymer-based delivery technology Invisicare®.   Invisicare is a technology with 14 international patents and is designed to improve the delivery of the active ingredients. Invisicare holds active ingredients on the skin for extended time periods and control their release.

Along with dermatology, the company has also seen a growing demand for topically-delivered cannabis. This is evidenced by its recent announcement with Canopy Growth Corporation in Canada.

The Company in a recent 10Q SEC filing (http://dtn.fm/skw4F) indicated it will continue to out-license its patented prescription and OTC products formulated with Invisicare. Its business model is to increase the value of its product pipeline, boost licensing revenues, capitalize on the success of current licensees, and generate revenue from online and retail sales of its cosmeceutical/OTC line.

The filing added that Skinvisible has named David St. James to the board of directors. An inventor and businessman based in Las Vegas, he is deemed qualified in recognition of his technical abilities and management skills.

Liberty Leaf Holdings Ltd. (OTCQB: LIBFF) (CSE: LIB) (FSE: HN3P) Subsidiary Plans to Boost Storage Capacity

  • In new business plan sent to Health Canada, subsidiary North Road Ventures proposes doubling its cannabis product lines, adding oil products (CBD) and boosting by five-fold its storage capacity
  • Statista report projects Canadian marijuana market will reach C$2.8 billion by 2020
  • Company sees cannabis oil products accounting for 50% or more of projected sales

Liberty Leaf Holdings Ltd.’s (OTCQB: LIBFF) (CSE: LIB) (FSE: HN3P) wholly own subsidiary, North Road Ventures, has abridged its application to Health Canada, detailing its plans to double its cannabis product lines, adding cannabis oil products (CBD), and boost by five-fold its vault storage capacity to C$6.25 million. The abridgment comes after talks between the subsidiary and Health Canada about a much-needed alleviation of supply chain issues for other licensed producers.

LIBFF is a Vancouver, Canada-based company with the subsidiary that has a new business plan. It has abridged its Access to Cannabis for Medical Purposes Regulations (ACMPR) application currently in review by Health Canada. Its North Road Ventures subsidiary has revised its application to a distribution-focused strategy, making it unique in the crowded field of cultivation-based applicants.

The application has also been changed to increase by five-fold its vault storage capacity. A new wrinkle is also the doubling of cannabis product lines — particularly cannabis oil products (CBD) — which are expected to account for 50% or more of projected sales.

Earlier, North Road Ventures discussed with Health Canada the abridgment, providing a much-needed solution to fulfill supply to both the recreational and medicinal cannabis markets. The stakes are high; Statista projects that, if marijuana is legalized by 2018, the combined market for dried and oil/extract marijuana will reach C$2.8 billion by 2020 (http://dtn.fm/EA42g).

In a news release, William Rascan, president and CEO of Liberty Leaf, said, “These are very exciting times for Liberty Leaf and North Road Ventures stakeholders. We forecast even greater value to the company with this abridgment and increase in capacity of products available to distribute to legal retailers.”

Cache Elite, Inc. (ILUS) Takes Travel into the Future with TripWitz

  • TripWitz platform is an OTA offering the expertise of actual travel agents
  • Serves hundreds of high-demand destinations around the globe
  • Accepts bitcoin payments

There has never been a smarter way to plan for a vacation than with TripWitz from Cache Elite, Inc. (OTC: ILUS). TripWitz lets tech-savvy Millennials choose their holiday destinations, accommodation, tour packages and lots more online. Those who prefer a personal touch are also accommodated at TripWitz. The platform is supported by human representatives who are always eager to provide guidance and help customers navigate TripWitz’s comprehensive range of world-class hotels, beautiful beaches and amazing locations. To make booking even easier, TripWitz is now accepting payment in bitcoin. At TripWitz, the best elements of the past and the present are combined. With its offering of good old-fashioned human service supported by the latest technology and payment systems, TripWitz from Cache Elite is taking travel into the future.

Reports of the death of the travel agent were greatly exaggerated, as many vacationers still prefer to use one. It was thought that the advent of online travel agencies (OTAs) spelt doom for the travel agent, much as VCRs in their heyday were felt to presage the demise of cinema. Despite the adoption of new information technologies, however, the travel industry still has a place for professionals who can respond to clients in a way that no machine can. A major problem with OTAs is that they provide too much information. This can be overwhelming. Although choice is good, too much choice is less so, since it decreases utility and satisfaction, as noted in a Harvard Business Review report (http://dtn.fm/Ra6NT).

Moreover, many OTAs often advertise one price before tacking on fees and other hidden charges or restrictions and blackout dates in the fine print. As a result, although many travelers will look for information on OTA sites, only 13 percent, down from 36 percent in 2015, typically book their reservations on such sites, according to MMGY Global 2016 Portrait of American Travelers. The information overload has taken a toll. The MMGY report shows that Millennials are as likely as anyone to turn to a travel agent. The percentage of travelers under the age of 35 who prefer to book their vacations through a travel agent increased 50 percent between 2014 and 2015. While OTAs have call center reps to assist customers with basic information, these reps, typically, do not have the knowledge to provide the same level of guidance that a travel agent on TripWitz can offer.

TripWitz provides real-time vacation quotes and information on flights and airfare, hotels, villas, ground transportation and recreational activities, just like Expedia. However, travelers also have the option to talk to Certified Designation Specialists who can guide them through the selection and booking process.

TripWitz connects to the global airlines through Google’s ITA Gateway software. Back in 2011, Google paid $700 million for the airline-fare-tracker ITA Software and now makes it available to enterprising outfits like Cache Elite. Using the ITA system, TripWitz can calculate and distribute flight schedule data and seat availability to satisfy millions of queries per second at the lowest possible fares. TripWitz offers coverage of amazing destinations all over the world, including Hawaii and Bermuda, which were untouched by recent hurricanes and tropical storms.

In addition, TripWitz has contracted with several airlines to provide bulk fares, which are negotiated fares and seat allotments available only to travel agents. Bulk fares offer higher commission rates than published fares, yet the traveler still has access to published fares at the rates offered by OTAs, providing much-needed flexibility to TripWitz customers.

Medical Innovation Holdings, Inc. (MIHI) Lowering Cost and Expanding Health Care Access

  • U.S. ranks last in health care access, spending twice as much as other high-income countries
  • 80+ million Americans live in rural areas where health care access is limited
  • MIHI building nationwide telemedicine network to serve underserved Americans

America ranks dead last among 11 developed high-income countries for overall health care performance and nearly last when it comes to health care access, administrative efficiency, and health care outcomes, according to a new report published by the Commonwealth Fund (http://dtn.fm/6dZH7). In excess of $9,000 per capita, the United States spends far more on health care than any country in the world and virtually double what each of the other comparative countries in the report spend, but the U.S. falls abysmally short of the performance achieved by the other high-income countries. The United States of America ranks at the very bottom in health care access and health care outcomes and ranks very poorly in infant mortality and life expectancy at age 60. The really sad part is that the United States has firmly held this expensive last place health care position for at least a decade.

Dramatically impacting health care access, an estimated 80 million Americans live in rural areas where access to medical services is extremely limited. These regions suffer from a chronic shortage of not only primary care physicians but, even more critically, specialty care physicians. Targeting these medically underserved areas, Medical Innovation Holdings, Inc. (OTC: MIHI) intends to deliver much needed medical care while simultaneously developing the foundation of its unique business model.

Utilizing telemedicine to connect specialty physicians to diverse rural areas, MIHI is committed to expanding and disrupting the traditional telemedicine business model, building a national network of physicians and patients, and vertically integrating multiple health care-related products and services across multiple platforms throughout its entire network. The company’s business model provides much needed specialty practice medical services to underserved rural patients in the setting of their primary practice provider. It also provides the rural physician with administrative support, additional income through more product and service offerings, and the ability for the rural practice to grow exponentially while providing access to specialist practitioners.

The telehealth market is projected to grow at a CAGR of 27.5% over the next five years, from 2016 to 2021 (http://dtn.fm/VriD9). The growth of the overall market can be attributed to growth in the geriatric population, dearth of health care professionals worldwide, improvements in telecommunication infrastructure, technological advancements, increasing utilization of connected devices for the management of chronic diseases, and a need for affordable treatment options due to rising health care costs. Medical Innovation Holdings fully intends to fulfill many of these health care needs while capitalizing on the phenomenal compound annual growth.

The recent editorial “Telemedicine: Reducing the Costs” (http://dtn.fm/05oZN) outlines MIHI’s vastly different approach from a growing field of telemedicine providers by delivering virtual telemedicine with a unique, customized software and hardware platform. Given its mutually beneficial business model and the dire need for health care access in the U.S., Medical Innovation Holdings could greatly contribute to getting the country out of last place in health care and back to healing America.

Moxian, Inc. (NASDAQ: MOXC) Shifts Focus to Larger China Retailers to Gain Market Share

  • New strategy in China is targeted to gain share in online-to-offline (O2O) market, grow processing fees, and boost revenues from converting its platforms to paid
  • Crystal Equity Research has set a $5.25 price on MOXC stock and projects sales of $2.3 million by FY2018 with gross profit of $1.7 million
  • China Daily reports retail sales in China grew 10.4% YOY to $2.55 trillion in 1H2017

Moxian, Inc. (NASDAQ: MOXC) is now focusing on larger retailers ($2-$4 million in annual sales) to grow its Moxian+ Merchant App in the Online-To-Offline (O2O) market, setting its sights on more business subscribers, increased commission revenues on sales processed by its UnionPay mobile module, and selling subscriber merchants sophisticated data on consumers.

The new strategy is part of MOXC’s shift towards gaining more market share in China with its paid platforms Moxian+ Merchant App and Moxian+ User App, for consumers. Smaller retailers are attracted to larger volume networks, such as Alibaba’s Taobao platform. Instead, MOXC sees the benefit of faster growth by targeting larger retailers in China.

MOXC is a Shenzhen, China-based development-stage company working to convert its formerly-free platforms into paid apps that generate revenues from subscriptions, advertising, marketing, and fees earned from payments processed by its UnionPay module.

Crystal Equity Research has set a $5.25 price on MOXC stock and projects its sales will reach $2.3 million by FY2018 with a gross profit of $1.7 million (http://dtn.fm/tR8Vq). China Daily reports that first half 2017 retail sales grew 10.4% YOY to $2.55 trillion in 1H2017 (http://dtn.fm/e5gIL).

MOXC’s strategy shift is also repositioning its sales managers to work with independent agents by market. Within four years, the company anticipates building networks with 500-1,000 agents in each market. The goal is lower SG&A expenses and better align expenses to revenue streams from new customers, the report said.

Previously, MOXC’s strategy was to pursue smaller retailers. But a lot of O2O competition for that business is a factor — making it inefficient and costly for MOXC to grow market share. By targeting larger retailers, MOXC now sees opportunity to process more sales and earn more revenue as a percentage of those sales. The company can also charge larger retailers fees by offering additional data that targets the Chinese digital consumer market.

LottoGopher Holdings Inc. (OTCQB: LTTGF) (CSE: LOTO) (FRA: 2LG) Provides the Pleasure of Playing the Lottery from Home

  • Increases choices by allowing electronic payment for lottery tickets
  • Improves consumer experience: play online from home
  • Expansive market: half of adult Americans play the lottery

If you’re tired of standing in line to play Powerball, Mega Millions or SuperLotto Plus, then you should consider signing up for an account with LottoGopher Holdings Inc. (OTCQB: LTTGF) (CSE: LOTO) (FRA: 2LG). A paid subscription account with the lottery messenger service allows users the convenience of ordering tickets from the safety and comfort of their homes or offices. No more standing in line on rainy days; no more tussling with unruly fellow customers; a LottoGopher account lets you purchase a lottery ticket without hassle…and at the same price you always pay. As the U.S. economy moves increasingly away from cash, LottoGopher is poised to make its business model part of that cashless world. This Los Angeles, California-based innovator is giving the U.S. lotteries business a ticket to win big as adoption of its technology grows.

Despite the widespread adoption of electronic payments, the typical lotto player generally needs to pay for his ticket with cash if he lives in the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, the U.S. Virgin Islands or any of the 44 states that are members of the Multi-State Lottery Association (MUSL). Six (6) states (Alabama, Alaska, Hawaii, Mississippi, Nevada, and Utah) have no lotteries. A number of jurisdictions, such as Arkansas, New Mexico, South Carolina, Tennessee, Washington, DC and Wisconsin, only permit cash sales of lotto tickets. In some other states (Connecticut, Iowa, Kansas, Louisiana, Minnesota, Nebraska, New York, North Dakota, Pennsylvania, South Dakota, Washington), although debit cards are allowed by state law, it’s up to the retailer whether to take them or not.

Paying for a lotto ticket with a credit card, although generally frowned upon, is allowed by at least twenty (20) of the forty-seven (47) jurisdictions that are part of the MUSL: Arizona, California, Delaware, Idaho, Illinois, Indiana, Kansas, Louisiana, Maine, Michigan, Minnesota, Nebraska, New York, Ohio, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, South Dakota, Vermont, and Washington. In California, credit card payments are only accepted at designated gas pumps with lottery ticket sale options. In the world of sweepstakes, cash remains king.

And its dominion is extensive; in the U.S., $80 billion is spent on lotteries every year. With about half of adult Americans (approximately 120 million) playing the lottery on a regular basis, according to Gallup (http://dtn.fm/4ngZu), LottoGopher’s target market is just as expansive. At present, the company’s service is only available in California, where residents spent about $6.3 billion on various lotteries, but LottoGopher plans to offer its daily, monthly and annual subscriptions to customers in at least twenty-two (22) other states over the next few years. LottoGopher’s lottery messenger service provides its subscribers with the security of ordering and managing the legal purchase of state lottery tickets online using debit and credit cards. The service allows users to keep track of tickets and winnings and gives them exclusive access to strategies, alerts, and lottery news. Account holders can play alone with a single ticket or join online public or private groups to pool winnings. LottoGopher’s support systems include an automated email follow-up system to capture, score and remarket to email address leads, a social media listening and outreach feature and utilization of Google Analytics tools.

To scale up operations rapidly, LottoGopher has joined forces with Lottoland, the world leader in online lottery. Since launching in 2013, Lottoland has climbed to €300 million in annual sales and now has six (6) million customers on its books. It’s a partnership that is quite likely to hit the jackpot.

ChineseInvestors.com, Inc. (CIIX) On Target for Impressive Gains in CBD Healthcare Markets

  • CIIX reported nearly 76 percent revenue growth for full year fiscal 2017
  • Price target of $3.75 reflects investment potential of cannabis initiatives
  • Recent launch of cryptocurrency daily Chinese video newscast from NYSE first of its kind
  • CBD industry is expected to grow to $2.1 million in consumer sales by 2020 with $450 million coming from hemp-based sources.

ChineseInvestors.com, Inc. (OTCQB: CIIX), a leading financial information website for Chinese-speaking investors in the United States, China and Canada, continues to innovate and create exceptional value opportunities with the launch of a CBD skincare line in China and a cryptocurrency daily Chinese video newscast from the NYSE. Notably, SeeThruEquity has updated and maintained its target price of $3.75 on shares of ChineseInvestors.com, Inc.’s stock.

Among the reported highlights is the company’s revenue growth of 75.9% over 2016, with revenues dramatically increasing in both its investor relations and subscription services segments (http://dtn.fm/j6BZV). CIIX’s business strategy of targeting the emerging cannabidiol (CBD) health products market includes bringing a new website online for its subsidiary ChineseCBDoil.com (http://dtn.fm/y7S5i). This website offers the world’s first “CBD health products online store in the Chinese language.” At the same time, CIIX launched a Chinese language Yelp-style mobile application that contains a location-enabled database of recreational and medical marijuana dispensaries, as well as a platform to review and discuss various cannabis and CBD products.

The company’s wholly owned foreign subsidiary CBD Biotechnology recently completed the record filing process with the China Food & Drug Administration for its first retail line of hemp-infused skin care products. With this essential regulatory milestone met and several products designed and manufactured, ChineseInvestors.com is ready to promote and sell its CBD Hemp Oil and CBD infused skin care products in China, Alan Klitenic, CIIX director of investor relations said in a SmallCapVoice interview (http://dtn.fm/IdN8E).

Adding to the company’s robust growth pattern, the launch this week of the first cryptocurrency daily video newscast in the Chinese language from the NYSE is generating attention. Titled “Bitcoin Multimillionaire,” the video newscast aims to provide information and analysis regarding all aspects of the emerging digital currency world.

“Many Chinese investors are seeking information and education related to the cryptocurrency sector,” said Warren Wang, founder and CEO of CIIX said in a news release (http://dtn.fm/Fw59W). “Similar to U.S. stocks, as the price of digital currency, such as Bitcoin, continues to increase, Chinese people all over the world are taking notice and seeking access to timely information regarding market trends, news and analysis. We look forward to being the premier source for this information.”

Investors should also watch for CIXX to launch a website to serve the Chinese cryptocurrency investor. The new site, located at newcoin168.com, will seek to “be a leader in digital media and cryptocurrency and blockchain technology education,” providing straight forward explanations on all aspects of the cryptocurrency market while providing strategies and other opportunities to capitalize on this fast-paced financial industry.

Greenkraft, Inc. (GKIT) Keeps On Trucking with Cleaner, Cost Effective Alternative Fuels

  • Demand for alternative fuel vehicles & systems climbing
  • CNG and LPG have smaller carbon footprints
  • Natural gases cost less than gasoline or diesel

As a major player in the clean energy truck market, Greenkraft, Inc. (OTCQB: GKIT) is offering truck fleet operators the rare opportunity to have their cake and eat it too. The California-based manufacturer not only provides alternative fuel automotive products that are more environmentally friendly but they are, also, more cost effective. Utilizing an engine, or commercial truck or alternative fuel system from Greenkraft, fleet owners can play a part in preserving the planet, while boosting their bottom lines. They are already starting to do so. The company has reported increased demand for its trucks and is ramping up its production facilities to turn out more fuel-efficient trucks with varying carrying capacities.

Despite the naysayers, the Paris Climate Accord, signed by 195 nation-states, was recognition that carbon emissions are causing global warming and climate change. The Accord aims to ‘keep the increase in global average temperature to well below 2°C above pre-industrial levels’ and an obvious way to do that is by a reducing or eliminating the use of fossil fuels. However, with regard to the greenhouse gases (GHG) that result when they are burned, fossil fuels are not all the same. Naturally occurring gases, which are components of liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) and compressed natural gas (CNG) have much smaller carbon footprints than either gasoline or diesel.

CNG is mainly methane obtained from natural gas, oil wells and coal beds that has been compressed to a pressure around 200 times normal atmospheric pressure. LPG is mostly propane and butane from gas fields or from oil refining at a pressure of between 5-15 atmospheric pressures. Using the Greenhouse gases, Regulated Emissions, and Energy use in Transportation Model (GREET) framework, the Argonne National Laboratory’s Systems Assessment Group has reported ‘that propane use reduced GHG emissions by nearly 10%’ (http://dtn.fm/3cMlW). And the California Air Resources Board (CARB) has found that a CNG fueled vehicle emits 20 to 29 percent fewer GHG emissions than a comparable gasoline or diesel fueled vehicle.

Natural gases are also less expensive. A study by SoCalGas concluded that vehicles powered by CNG offer substantial advantages over vehicles powered by gasoline or diesel (http://dtn.fm/5jY8v). Researchers compared heavy-duty commercial diesel and natural gas vehicles and provided estimated break-even points, i.e. the prices at which it would be equally cost effective to use either natural gases or diesel. For a transit bus, the oil price would have to fall to $31 per barrel; for a short- haul heavy-duty truck, it would need to drop to $28 a barrel, while for a refuse hauler, the oil price would have to sink to $22 a barrel.

With the global alternative fuel market set to grow to $614 billion by 2022, Greenkraft is planning to expand its output by the construction of a larger manufacturing facility. In March, the company announced the debut of the Greenkraft truck at the WWETT Show 2017 held on February 22 – February 25 at the Indiana Convention Center. The truck’s coming out generated a lot of excitement, particularly since it allowed the Greenkraft brand to be introduced to the septic tank sector of the trucking industry.

George Gemayel, CEO of Greenkraft, Inc. had this to say, “The debut of our trucks at the WWETT Show was a huge success as everyone was amazed at how the Greenkraft truck looked. In addition, this opens up an entire new market for Greenkraft since we had not previously focused on the septic tank industry; but now it can produce millions of new revenue dollars for the Company in the coming years.”
