HOWEVER, EFFECTIVE JANUARY 1, 2023, MANAGEMENT HAS ELECTED TO CHANGE THE BASIS OF ACCOUNTING TO ACCRUAL BASIS IN ACCORDANCE WITH ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES GENERALLY ACCEPTED IN THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA. UNDER ACCRUAL BASIS, REVENUE IS RECOGNIZED WHEN EARNED, RATHER THAN WHEN CASH IS RECEIVED, AND EXPENSES ARE RECOGNIZED WHEN INCURRED, RATHER THAN WHEN CASH IS PAID. THE DECISION TO CHANGE TO ACCRUAL BASIS WAS MADE TO BETTER REFLECT THE FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE AND POSITION OF THE COMPANY, AS ACCRUAL BASIS PROVIDES A MORE COMPREHENSIVE VIEW OF TRANSACTIONS AND EVENTS BY RECOGNIZING REVENUES AND EXPENSES WHEN EARNED OR INCURRED, REGARDLESS OF WHEN CASH IS RECEIVED OR PAID.
