ITEM 1. BUSINESS We were formed under the law of Wyoming on November 8, 2019. We changed our domicile to Delaware on March 5, 2021. We are a vertically integrated manufacturing company for photonics-based industrial products and solutions and, since recently acquiring the assets of Control Micro Systems, Inc., have now expanded the market for our laser products into the large, growing pharmaceutical manufacturing vertical, in what we believe is a recession-resistant sector with significant barriers to entry. We are pioneering a new generation of laser blasting technologies focused on disrupting the sandblasting and abrasives blasting markets. We offer a full portfolio of integrated laser blasting solutions for corrosion control, rust removal, de-coating, pre-welding and post-welding, laser cleaning and surface conditioning. Our solutions span use cases throughout product lifecycles, from product fabrication to maintenance and repair, as well as aftermarket operations.
