We reported a net income for the quarter of approximately $130,000 or 5% of total revenues. This compares to net income of approximately $28,000 or 1% of total revenues reported for the second quarter of 2020. The company had a net income for the six months ended June 30, 2021 of approximately $251,000, or 5% of total revenues, as compared to the net loss for the six months ended June 30, 2020 of approximately $61,000, or 2% of total revenues.
