In addition to our valued shareholders who continue to support our vision, the CEO and the CFO have participated in this placement in the amount of 23% of the total units offered, confirming our commitment and strong belief in the success of GlobeX as its story unfolds. As of the close of this placement, we are in a much stronger position than we were at the time of our IPO.
"Our balance sheet is stronger, the hard work and large expenses of the IPO in addition to our integration and heavy R&D costs are behind us, and we have added strong distribution partners, such as the ones we have just signed up in Canada and the USA. Additionally, our emerging market partners, such as telecom giant America Movil, are starting to ramp up post-COVID-19 and have shown a real commitment to push GlobeX's security solutions to their business clients."
