• Net income decreased to $335,000 from $824,000 for the six-month period ended April 30, 2019; and

• The decrease in profitability for the six-month period is attributable primarily to lower revenue from exotic currencies and increased expenses related to the buildout of our infrastructure to support continued growth.

Seasonality is reflected in the timing of when foreign currencies are in greater or lower demand. In a normal operating year there is seasonality to the Company's operations with higher revenues generated from March until September and lower revenues from October to February. This coincides with peak tourism seasons in North America when there are generally more travelers entering and leaving the United States and Canada.
