Customer Concentration

The Company did not have any customers during the years ended December 31, 2025 or 2024 that accounted for more than 10% of revenue. Substantially all revenue comes from contracts with customers for press release distribution and related products, investor relations website hosting and data feeds, events and webcast offerings, and subscriptions to its incident hotline; customers consist of public corporate issuers and professional firms such as investor and public relations firms, which diversifies credit risk on trade receivables.
