This should result in a net benefit of approximately $2.7 million in fiscal year 2025 to net income and cash flow.<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">Most importantly, the company has come to a transition point regarding the elimination of the overhang in our shareholder equity associated with our prior acquisitions, as shown in the table below.
