July 25 -Announces $2.0 Million Private Placement Financing and Retains Echelon Wealth Partners as Financial Advisor. Terms are $0.16 cents with warrants at $0.24 cents. Proceeds for Manufacturing and Production to fulfill obligations with our Fortune 50 Customer and to scale for Cable Industry opportunities, as well as, engineering and product development along with working capital and operating expenses.

Aug. 10 - Applies to Extend Warrants. 6.1M shares set to expire on August 24, 2018 will be extended by two years to August 24, 2020.

Aug. 16 - Receives TSX Venture Exchange Approval for Warrant Amendment.

Aug. 21 - Closes First Tranche of $2 Million Private Placement. $1.7M raised to date from the July 25th announcement.

In the last six months, YFI.V loss valuation by more than 66%. Initially, the FCC approval for EWC5XGWRF1 Power-Optimized Radio Card, the SMTC Canada re-investment, the Artificial Intelligence Radar (A.I.R.), and the Firmware update maintained a consolidation of the stock price. The IEEE paper endorsement which roughly coincided with a third party promotion (unknown to YFI.V) was short-lived. The stock price began to sharply decline thereafter. The subsequent insider purchases did not reverse the trend.

The announcement of the partnership with Wesley Cover Services (WCS) Europe also did nothing to mitigate the price decline. By the time the warrant extensions were made public, YFI.V was trading under $0.20 cents. The appointment of a new board member and the reception of approved vendor status with Mediacom also had little impact. Finally, the financing announcement at $0.16 cents exerted a strong selling pressure on the stock.

Its noteworthy to mention that Echelon Partners (who earlier in the year had a target of $1.25 for YFI.V) was retained as a Financial Advisor.

It is clear that with no sales announcement in the last six months, including no update on Kroger's engagement, YFI.V continues to lose valuation.

Today, the stock reached a 52 week low of $0.125 cents (unfortunately not a typo)! Nonetheless, in the last six months YFI.V's has continued its product development activities and formalized some partnerships. While the lack of sales clouds the horizons, there may be optimized resolutions ahead.

As for now, YFI.V is buffering.
