In light of the business development activities in each of these two markets, D-BOX anticipates that the upward trend in revenues should be sustained despite remaining subject to a certain level of volatility. In combination with this expected growth of revenues over the next few quarters, D-BOX also forecasts to gradually increase the level of its operating expenses. The Corporation aims to maintain a positive adjusted EBITDA and intends to manage its operations based on attaining this objective.
