Note 9—Industry Risk and Concentration
 
The Company develops genetic risk assessment tests and performs research for its own benefit. As of September 30, 2015, the Company sells five genetic risk assessment tests. Commercial success of the Company’s genetic risk assessment tests will depend on their success as being deemed to be scientifically credible and cost-effective by consumers and the marketing success of the Company and its collaborative partners.
 
Research in the field of disease predisposing genes and genetic markers is intense and highly competitive. The Company has many competitors in the United States and abroad that have considerably greater financial, technical, marketing, and other resources available. If the Company does not discover disease predisposing genes or genetic markers and develop risk assessment tests and launch such services or products before its competitors, then the potential for significant revenues may be reduced or eliminated.
 
During the three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, approximately 45% and 48%, respectively, of the Company’s revenue came from sales through the Merchant Network and Channel Partner Agreement with Amway Global, and 14% and 30%, respectively, of the Company’s revenue came from sales through ABG’s promotional product bundle program.
