Financial Metrics
The filing text does not provide a clear value for revenue, profit, cash flow, margins, debt, or liquidity. This report is strictly a notification of corporate governance changes and contains no financial performance data.
Material Changes
The primary material change reported is the resignation of two Additional Directors:

Both individuals tendered their resignations effective April 18, 2020, and the Board of Directors accepted these resignations at a meeting held on that date.
Outlook, Management Commentary, and Risks
