Mr. Wagenhals further noted that "what is most exciting for the Company is that we are seeing record-breaking triple digit growth quarter-over-quarter in EBITDA and Gross Profit Margin. This growth is driven in significant part by the Company reaching scale with respect to its operations as our capital expenditures, staffing and resources come online." Mr. Wagenhals concluded that "we have record breaking demand for all our products within the US markets, with demand reasonably anticipated industry wide to grow with the rapid pace of new gun ownership and the election outcome.
