The Company anticipates that its results of operations to be included in the Report will be significantly different from the corresponding period for the last fiscal year, primarily as a result of the inclusion of operating results of Vegas.com, LLC, which the Company acquired on September 24, 2015, and interest expense for a related financing for a full twelve months in 2016 compared to only three months in 2015. Also significant was the Company’s completion of its acquisition of assets of China Branding Group Limited on September 20, 2016, and its entry into a related amendment to a financing agreement. These developments were discussed in detail in the Company’s prior filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
