OUTLOOK

D-BOX focuses on two major development areas: the entertainment market and the industrial market which have their respective sub-markets. In light of the business development activities in each of these two markets as well as investments related to new products launched recently or that will soon be launched, D-BOX expects to maintain the upward trend in revenue. In conjunction with the anticipated growth in revenue, D-BOX expects to gradually increase the level of its operating expenses related to sales, marketing research and development that will support the commercialization of new products. In general, the Corporation aims, however, to maintain a positive adjusted EBITDA and intends to manage its operations based on attaining this objective.
