$3million in cash and inventory on hand at the end of March which
means the company is perfectly poised to ride out the COVID19 new
economy”. He continues, “As a diversified company we have multiple
business segments that are benefiting from the new work from
home (WFH) and shop from
home (SFH) paradigm shift that employers,
businesses and governments have instituted due to the Coronavirus.
We are fortunate to be experiencing a major surge in our AR
Ecommerce division to the point where we are hiring additional
personnel to handle the incoming orders. Also, we are in the market
and experiencing a lot of interest in our new Virtual Conference
offering which we believe will lead to meaningful new contract
revenue in the short term”.
Monthly highlights:
- Sales have surged for the month of March
to record breaking revenue of over $1mill for the
month.
- AR is right smack in the middle of
the SFH and WFH paradigm
shift.
- New Acquisition of Virtual Conference Training Platform with
Zoom integration and AR driving new business opportunities.
Expected closing on or around April 15th.

surging from the shop from home (SFH) new normal, new hires needed
to keep up with demand.
