The LEI is 549300VFT6WAQB4BVB07; the ISIN is not on the record, which lists several US ISINs against the LEI: US09060C1356, US09060C1430 and US09060C6066. The security type is Corporate, the sector is 7372 Services-Prepackaged Software, and the jurisdiction is United States, Delaware. The segment is not on the record. The issuer is listed and not halted.\n\n## The disclosure read\n\nThe record holds 45 filings across 32 filing days in the window 2025-11-08 to 2026-11-08. The median gap between filing days is 7 days, and the latest filing is dated 2026-10-30, 9 days before the record date of 2026-11-08. The latest filing is of type agm_egm. The NASDAQ exchange median is 52 filings, a cadence gap of 6.0 days and a latency of 5.0 days. The sector median for 7372 Services-Prepackaged Software is 62.5 filings, a cadence gap of 5.0 days and a latency of 4.5 days. The issuer's 45 filings are below the exchange median of 52 and below the sector median of 62.5.\n\n## Auditor\n\nThe auditor of record is Bush and Associates CPA, located in Henderson, Nevada. The record shows one auditor change, dated 2026-07-09.\n\n## Events and halts\n\nThe record holds no listing, delisting or name change lines for the issuer. The domicile change is not on the record, as EDGAR states no dated change of state of incorporation on a filing line. The segment move is not on the record, as the exchanges' tier transfers are not EDGAR filings. The halt flag is clear: listed, not halted.\n\n## Orderability\n\nThe outcome is not determinable under acm-68000/us/reasonable-basis-suitability-finra-rule-2111/r1, because the chapter's orderability section, as of 2026-11-04, carries no client categories and so the outcome cannot name its client category.\n\n## Coverage\n\nOne research house is named on the issuer's investor-relations page: Maxim Group.\n\n## Open research\n\nNo openly published research notes are on the record for the issuer.\n\n## Licensed\n\nLicensed research: none loaded. A licensed row is served only to an agent whose firm holds that licence (licensor, entitlement). No licensed row is loaded.\n\n## As-of depth\n\nThe issuer's sealed years are 2021, 2022, 2023, 2024, 2025 and 2026. The market's earliest sealed date is 2021-01-04.
