The Company primarily offers health maintenance organization (“HMO”), participating provider organization (“PPO”) and indemnity plans for dental care services and vision benefit plans to employer groups of all sizes and individuals. The condensed consolidated interim financial statements included in this report have been prepared by the Company without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”). In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation are reflected in the interim financial statements.
