CEO

I am pleased with the progress we made in the second half of year 20 with two consecutive quarters of growth in revenues and profits. We have made significant progress in building the robotic division to be the growth engine of BOSS. We saw its initial yield in the fourth quarter revenues as the robotic business became the primary growth factor. Our robotic division provides downstream automation mainly for mold producers, starting at the mold injection process, through the quality inspection, assembly, and packing of the molds. Our robotic system reduces the workforce, shortens the production cycle, and improves quality controls. Those are the critical factors for proving ROI. The Robotic Division mission is to be a leading provider of robotic systems for mold producers, mainly in North America. To execute this mission, we established sales and technical support in the USA, and we made good progress in improving production efficiency at our development and production center in Israel. Yet, we have a lot to improve, and I am on it personally. Supply Chain Division Its revenues reduced by 5% in year 20, primarily related to India's market, but thanks to increase in North America sales and improved gross profit margins, the operating income of year 20 amounted to $1.1 million, roughly the same as it was in year 19. RFID division. Its revenues for year 20 decreased by 7% due to the COVID. But thanks to cost reduction and improved gross profit margin, the operating profit of year 20 increased to approximately $1 million versus operating loss of $100,000 in year 19. That completes my review, and now I will take your questions.
