Notwithstanding that, the Company generated healthy margins in the quarter and is managing expenses to produce strong bottom line results. We are very pleased with the contribution from LCF and see a compelling acquisition environment to further build out the platform that we have established in Canada. We continue to strategically balance the need for sales with the gross margin that is attainable in a more competitive market, all while preparing for an exciting future with robotics automation.”
