Company Overview We are a supplier of protective films, coatings and related services primarily to the automobile aftermarket, new car dealerships and automobile original equipment manufacturers, or OEMs. The majority of our revenue is derived from the sale of our automotive products and related services while the remainder of our revenue is derived from non-automotive products including architectural window film and marine and flat surface protection films. The Company began as a software company designing vehicle patterns used to produce cut-to-fit protective film for headlights and painted surfaces of automobiles. In 2007, we began selling automotive paint protection film products to complement our software business. As paint protection film technology improved and became more durable, awareness and adoption of paint protection film continued to increase, driving significant industry growth over the last several years.
