Gregory A. Mark, Hubwoo Chairman and CEO commented: "Hubwoo remains focused on profitability as we transition away from the dependency on legacy partnerships of its past. Building a new sales lead engine and converting leads into revenue continues to take time as we remain commited to our customer base who are running legacy SAP applications. We trust that in time, new revenue streams will be generated by executing on new partnerships such as the one we just announced with GEP."
