[   ]  No

If so:  attach an explanation of the anticipated change, both narratively and quantitatively, and, if appropriate, state the reasons why a reasonable estimate of the results cannot be made.

We expect to report net income of approximately $384,000 for the first quarter of 2020, compared to a net loss of approximately $3.4 million in the first quarter of 2019.  The increase was primarily due to the gain on investment in RMX as a result of their hedging activities.
