Software now available to compare current law vs. proposed tax changes to aid in future tax planning

FORT LAUDERDALE, Nov. 23, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Corvee, a software and solutions company which serves tax and accounting firms, today announces the company’s tax planning software has been updated to include proposed tax changes in the event President-elect Joe Biden is able to pass his proposed changes to tax policy. The software will show the current law vs. proposed tax changes to help in future tax planning.

Corvee recently released the ability for tax and accounting firms to compare what their clients will pay and can save in taxes for 2021 under current law vs. Biden’s proposed policy all within their Tax Planning software. The new tax comparison tool also allows adding tax planning strategies unique to each scenario to be able to develop a proactive and strategic tax plan and be the trusted advisor clients need.

Some of Biden’s proposed tax changes added to the software include:

• Updating the corporate tax rate to 28%
• Updating the top individual income tax rate to 39.6%
• Updating the rate paid on investment income to same as wages if earnings equal more than $1 million
• Elimination of the Social Security tax cap for individuals earning over $400K
• Phasing out the Section 199A deduction for income above $400K

“With the results of the election, there will be tax implications that we want all tax and accounting firms to have access to so they can prepare clients for the proposed changes,” states Andrew Argue, CEO of Corvee. “With the uncertainty and unease for many due to the proposed tax changes, this is the perfect opportunity for accountants to be strategic and trusted advisors to their clients. We have added these capabilities to our software to ensure accountants and tax planners can run scenarios based on current and proposed law, and determine which tax planning strategies make sense to take for 2020 and 2021 regardless of if the law changes or not.”

Corvee Tax Planning is a first-of-its-kind software that allows accounting and tax professionals to collect vital information via custom individual and business questionnaires, analyze estimated tax savings across thousands of strategy combinations, multiple entities and multiple years and prepare tax plan proposals and plans for their clients – all within a matter of minutes.

“We have been working on an EV strategy for the rideshare space and car sharing space for a while now,” commented Ramy El-Batrawi, CEO. “We are excited that we are finally launching the first 40 EV vehicles in December. Working with a few partners in this space has allowed us to fulfill a goal the company had. With funding and infrastructure coming in from our partners, we were able to make great strides both in the technology and the deployment of the vehicles.”

“We are launching two different strategies to fulfill our goal with EV vehicles. One will be a true Car Share starting in LA and will continue to expand through the country. The Car Share portion of EV will be subsidized by our partner and guaranteeing a profitable venture for the company. We should see revenues from this program hitting this quarter. The second phase of the EV strategy is with the new functionalities of the new app which includes unlocking and starting the car through the app. The problem we are solving for actual renter of vehicles for the gig economy space is the limited Distance an EV before recharging and the time to recharge a vehicle makes it not feasible for gig workers to rent EV vehicles. Our strategy will be to have EV vehicles available across the city, when a driver runs low on their battery, they can simply swap up vehicles using their app and continue driving without delay. We feel this strategy will allow the expansion to EV vehicles where driver can save money on gas, one of the biggest costs and become part of green economy. We are planning to test the model in December as well,” CEO Ramy El-Batrawi added.

REDWOOD CITY, Calif., Nov. 23, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Sumo Logic, (Nasdaq: SUMO), the pioneer in continuous intelligence, today released exclusive findings from its highly-anticipated fifth annual report. ”The Continuous Intelligence Report: The State of Modern Applications, DevSecOps and the Impact of COVID-19” provides an inside look into the state of the modern application technology stack, including changing trends in cloud and application adoption and usage by customers, and the impact of COVID-19 as an accelerant for digital transformation efforts.

“This year was unlike any other that we have witnessed with a significant shift in organizations’ technology priorities, in part as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic,” said Bruno Kurtic, founding VP of strategy and solutions at Sumo Logic. “This continued acceleration to digital further fueled key trends including multi-cloud adoption, an expanding threat landscape, and the need for improved collaboration across DevSecOps, as companies quickly made changes to adapt to new business demands. The need for continuous intelligence is even more critical as digital businesses require real-time analytics in order to deliver high performance, highly scalable, always-on digital services to speed decision making and drive the best customer experiences.”

”The Continuous Intelligence Report: The State of Modern applications, DevSecOps and the Impact of COVID-19” now it its 5th year, provides data-driven insights, best practices and trends by analyzing technology adoption among more than 2,100 Sumo Logic customers who run massive mission-critical modern applications on cloud platforms like AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud Platform as well as hybrid cloud infrastructure. Key findings from the report include:

Multi-cloud adoption accelerates during COVID-19 pandemic

Amidst the COVID-19 pandemic, the adoption of modern cloud services has surged. As businesses faced upheaval, many have turned to these platforms to support new and changing ways of doing business.

• Multi-cloud adoption grew by 70% year over year, outpacing previous 12 months that saw 50% growth.
• Enterprises are increasingly turning to modern cloud platforms such as Amazon Web Services (AWS), Microsoft Azure, and Google Cloud Platform (GCP), to deliver high quality and secure applications to their customers.

Modern cloud architectures become a reality

As more enterprises become dependent on the cloud, they’re shifting to a more “modern architecture.” This transition focuses on an application stack that consists of new tiers, technologies, and microservices.

• The typical AWS application has as many as 26 services (up from 15 last year) and is deployed across two or more regions and two or more accounts.
• Over 40 percent of Sumo Logic’s AWS customers are using container orchestration.
• Kubernetes is fast becoming the default app platform, with over 85% of businesses choosing Kubernetes to build and operate applications across multiple clouds.
• Additionally, serverless architecture is continuing to grow, and AWS Lambda adoption is now at 37 percent.

Security landscape dramatically shifts during COVID-19 pandemic

The security threat landscape has changed since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, requiring a more rigorous and adaptive security processes and solutions. Securing cloud workloads requires adoption of both cloud-native security technologies and consuming available cloud data sources.

• AWS customers adopted CloudTrail (60 percent), VPC Flow Logs (34 percent), and GuardDuty (22 percent) to meet this need. Additionally, the patterns of attack have changed throughout the course of the pandemic. The largest jump in attack origin came from Russia and India.
• Based on Sumo Logic’s Global Intelligence for AWS, AWS regional centers in the U.S. and E.U. are top targets for attackers.

The WFH era reinforces the need for DevSecOps to break the silos

The continued expectations for DevOps to improve the release and updates of apps and services has challenged siloed teams – given their remote working situations. It’s important that distributed development teams leverage analytics and insights to optimize the entire end-to-end software development and delivery process and improve the continuous intelligence of their organizations.

As the modern application stack continues to be reshaped by multi-cloud, open source technologies, and factors from extenuating circumstances like COVID-19, companies need a strategy to address this growing complexity. The answer lies in continuous intelligence, a new category of software that leverages real-time analytics and insights from a single, cloud-native platform across multiple use cases to speed decision-making, and drive world-class customer experiences. Sumo Logic’s Continuous Intelligence Platform™ provides this as a cloud-native delivered as a service.

Report Methodology

”The Continuous Intelligence Report: The State of Modern applications, DevSecOps and the Impact of COVID-19” is developed using data from more than 2,100 Sumo Logic customers running applications across all major cloud platforms and on-premise environments. All individual customer data is anonymized. Customers use Sumo Logic to manage production applications and underlying infrastructure. Hence, this report provides a snapshot of the production application state. Given the large sample size of enterprises, the data in this report is a reflection of the overall industry trends.

Dear APRU stakeholders:

Happy Thanksgiving. I am thankful for the opportunities we are now navigating at the year’s end, and as a new one begins. This year has taught us how to persevere through very difficult circumstances and I feel that our new initiatives are going to pay big dividends in the coming months and years.

The most important new developments have been the ongoing expansions and sales of Element C – expanding now in the Midwest, Upper Midwest and throughout Florida and other South Eastern states with distribution arranged though Southern Eagle Distributing, Inc. and our North Dakota partners, as well as in Virginia with Botanaway. We own Element Brands outright, and Apple Rush in 16 states through distributors and brick and mortar stores, and Internationally for Apple Rush Sparkling Drinks. We have a deal in place to get the 50 state rights but 2020 was not the time to conclude that and it is pending until more normal times to expand. We can sell, have and will continue to sell Apple Rush Drinks online nationally.

We have unfilled orders for Apple Rush that we will now focus on filling as quickly as we can. To that end, we are working on multiple new runs of Apple Rush 8 oz cans, and have a sufficient amount of aluminum cans now on hand and purchased to fill all of our existing orders and replenish inventories as needed. We have secured craft level batch production capabilities in Florida and will soon announce a new production facility in the Midwest.

We see growth in the Midwest being stronger and organic. We all know the products taste great and others are learning that too over time. We are responding to the customer demand that frankly we had expected earlier, but was not seen before now.

We know the consumer demand is real and we are happy to be able to share that with you. We are in the preparing to put Apple Rush sparkling juices back on the Amazon Platform and utilizing the success of Element C to regain entry back at retail with our new packaging. We are responding.

We are also selling Mistyk Cleaner and sanitizer products and anticipate that to continue as we expand the uses for the filling lines and equipment we have. We will be using the bottling line to run new Kratom products we have developed over the last couple of years that are seeing strong acceptance in the market.

Throughout 2020, financials have been posted timely and professionally. We remain committed to exchange uplisting in the future, and we anticipate that will require audits that will occur in time. This was not the year for such expenses or the time to alter the capital structure of the company. We have commitment from investors and for that I am grateful.

Investors should know that since taking over the APRU Brands, securing ownership, and defending the trademark, now working on re-establishment of the Hard Rush co-owned trademark (which is also delayed and requiring a legal action that is underway), growing production and the portfolio of APRU Brand’s products, adding valuable distribution, reducing the outstanding shares by billions of shares, buying the Mistyk Brand and helping with filling the need for hand sanitizers, management is busy working on the current chapter of growth.

Make no mistake these efforts are working and as a public company we are on track to have the company’s value restored by the end of this year or early in 2021. The challenges of 2020 were not normal and “a pivot” was required and disclosed through many press releases highlight the company changes. We look forward to canning, bottling, selling and distribution Sparkling Juice Drinks nationally and to the faster grown of all lines including Element C, Element K and the future launch of Element S as well. There will be continued efforts to reduce trading shares in 2021 as well.

I never could have predicted 2020, but I am grateful because we are more nimble and responsive and know where to go when thinks return to normal. I am committed to making growth and sales continue to happen. APRU is making steady progress and the trend is going to continue and will be accelerating. Success is our only goal and that still means getting to the “$100,000,000.00″ in annual sales I have mentioned pro forma.

The brands are strong, the products are good, safe, and taste great too, and moreover the product mix is varied. We expect several important tweets to be made at the time of completion in the coming months on Twitter at https://twitter.com/RealAPRU_NEWS

Let’s Go APRU,
