Q3 2022 Financial Results
Revenue for the third quarter ended September 30, 2022, was $2.8 million, up 15% over the year-ago period. Revenue increases were driven by improvements in sales to VA hospitals and clinics.

Direct operating costs in the third quarter were $345,972, increasing 51% over the year-ago period, driven by higher sales and the initiation of online advertising to support the July 2022 launch of the Company's new direct to consumer eCommerce Website. Selling and marketing expenses in the third quarter of 2022 increased to $332,696, from $75,389 from the same period in the prior year due to the addition of new personnel and higher sales commissions paid on the increase in sales.
