In its next Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2024, the Registrant expects that some historical information will be presented as discontinued operations. The primary reasons for the significant changes in revenue, pre-tax income, and pre-tax loss relate to, among other factors: (i) significant costs related to the acquisition of the majority interest in Amplex; (ii) a significant increase in administrative expenses incurred in connection with the disposition of assets involved with the Registrant's former business; and (iii) expenses related to the redomestication of the Registrant from a Canadian holding company incorporated under the laws of British Columbia in 1986 to a Delaware corporation; and (iv) the Registrant's cessation of its historical business and transition into its new business. The Amplex acquisition and the disposition of the Registrant's assets are each more fully discussed in the Registrant's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2024, as amended by an Amendment No. 1 on Form 10-K/A filed on July 29, 2024.</font><font style="color:#000000;white-space:pre-wrap;min-width:fit-content;"> </font></p><p style="font-size:10pt;margin-top:0;font-family:Times New Roman;margin-bottom:0;text-align:left;"><font style="white-space:pre-wrap;min-width:fit-content;">&#160;</font></p></td>
