The fiscal year ended August 31, 2012 saw strong revenue growth in all
segments of the Company's business. Revenues for the year grew by
approximately 141% and for the fourth quarter by 137% compared with the
same periods in 2011. A significant portion of the operating expenses
incurred in the fourth quarter 2012 reflect non-recurring transaction
costs related to the merger reported previously and described below.
Subsequent to the August 31, 2012 year end, on November 16, 2012, the
Company completed a reverse take-over transaction with WESA Group Inc.
("WESA") immediately following which both entities amalgamated. The
foregoing results do not reflect the results of WESA since the merger
was completed after the end of the reporting period. For additional
information on the merger and these financial results, please refer to
