       Registration Statement on Form 10 filed July 2, 2020

       Unaudited Pro Forma Combined Financial Statements, page 63

   1.                                                   Refer to the
explanations for the pro forma balance sheet adjustments (D) and (E). It
                                                        appears that you have
recorded right of use assets and related operating lease liabilities for
                                                        the two facilities in
the amounts of $24.9 million and $369,000, which aggregate to
                                                        approximately $25.3
million. It is unclear whether the $369,000 amount has been
                                                        reflected on the
balance sheet as we note only the $24.9 million adjustment to right of use
                                                        assets and an aggregate
of $24.9 million to current and non-current lease liabilities.
                                                        Please advise or revise
your disclosures.
   2.                                                   Refer to the second
paragraph under the discussion of pro forma adjustment (H). Please
                                                        clarify whether or not
the $2.7 million of total incremental compensation expense has
                                                        been reflected in the
pro forma statement of income (loss). We are unable to determine if
                                                        this amount also
relates to the $1.3 million of estimated incremental compensation

         expense disclosed in the first paragraph of pro forma adjustment (H).
We further note
         expense amounts reflected in pro forma adjustments (E), (F), (G) and
the first paragraph
         of (H) aggregate to $2.2 million which is shown as the total pro forma
adjustment amount
         for the line item, general and administrative expense. It is unclear
of your discussion of
         the $2.7 million incremental compensation expense and its reflection,
if at all, in the pro
         forma statements of income (loss). Please advise and clarify your
disclosures accordingly.

3.       We note your discussion of operating expenses excludes a discussion of
the impairment
         charges for goodwill in both fiscal years 2020 and 2019, and instead
the reference is to the
         description above, presumably under Fiscal 2020 Highlights on page 73.
Given the
         significance of the fiscal year 2020 impairment charge, please expand
here to include a
         brief discussion of the charge in each period, such as the reasons for
the impairment, and
         provide a cross reference to the "MD&A Critical Accounting Policies"
section for a more
         detailed discussion.

4.       Refer to the opinion paragraph. Please have the auditors revise the
last sentence that their
         audit opinion covers the results of operations and cash flows for each
of the three years in
         the period ended April 30, 2020. The current disclosure says for each
of the two years in
         the period ended April 30, 2020.

        We remind you that the company and its management are responsible for
the accuracy
and adequacy of their disclosures, notwithstanding any review, comments,
action, or absence of
action by the staff.
