On a corporate note, the company is on a solid financial footing going into 2013 due in large part to prudent cash management, to funding of research by our industry partners and to the raising of over $3.5 million through equity financings. We also added a very seasoned financial and biotech business expert to our Board of Directors and recently expanded our in-house science team to position us to enter into additional industry collaborations in 2013.
In conclusion, although 2012 was a tough year in general in the world financial markets and for many established and emerging companies, biOasis was recognized as a TSX 2012 Venture 50 company. The biOasis team had a plan entering into 2012: to affirm our technology and to engage industry - and to that end, we've achieved the objectives that have resulted in a significant increase in shareholder value.
On behalf of the biOasis board of directors and our team, we thank our investors for their on-going support and we look forward to reporting on our accomplishments in 2013.
