The Company will continue to focus on building operational integrity through improving recurring revenue streams, implementing the localized processing center model, and managing operating expenses.

While I commend our team for the hard work and strong improvements in 2011, we all understand that we have to compound these improvements to scale our business model with the first goal of profitability while also expanding our addressable market with the new opportunities outside of one-time system sales."
