The Company has worked with multiple business brokers and contacts within their business network to identify potential acquisitions. Due to our success in completing seven acquisitions over the previous four years and given our executive officers’ and key managers’ networks of contacts in the It, telecom, cybersecurity, and defense sectors, we believe that we are well positioned to continue to execute our business strategy given a pipeline of identified and acquisition targets. Because of our executive officers’ and key managers’ prior experience growing businesses organically, we believe that we are well positioned to grow our existing business via internal growth as well. The Company has developed a qualified business opportunity (the 「Opportunity Pipeline」). Although there CAN be no assurance that the Opportunity Pipeline CAN be converted to revenues, the Company expects that the total value of the Opportunity Pipeline to be approximately $55000萬. The Opportunity Pipeline represents the revenue opportunity for the Company from potential future contracts obtained through organic growth from qualified customers based on the expected base year contract value plus the value of all option periods.
