Transactional sales volume increased by more than 174% in 2021, a strong indication of our expanding geographic footprint as well as the accelerating adoption of electronic payment solutions across the industry. We have grown our business with limited investment delivering exponential growth and positive adjusted EBITDA in four of the last six quarters. Increasingly, cannabis merchants are gravitating towards electronic payment solutions for increased security and convenience for their customers, and our open platform gives merchants choice on how they want to build their processing infrastructure. In addition, there are a number of emerging opportunities in the cannabis market that we are eager to explore and further develop our business.”
