As an innovative pharmaceutical research and development company, IVIEW has not generated revenues from sales yet as our products are in the development stage without any approved products on the market. We have received some income from ERC and selling NOL in prior years (from Pennsylvania before moving to New Jersey in 2021), however our operation is primarily funded by stockholders including investors.
