The Company was targeted by external fraud during the 2022 Financial Year and the 2023 Financial Year. Perpetrators included an organized criminal group operating within the hospitality industry, contributing to an increase in the recorded deficit in the Company’s restricted funds.

The company ensured that no customer or member transaction has ever been impacted as a result of the restricted cash deficit.

In order to ensure the responsible deployment of capital, the Company reduced payroll obligations in Q1 and Q2 by 25% through an adjustment of its staffing.
