DSG derives revenue from four different sources.

Systems Sales Revenue, which consists of the sales price paid by those customers who purchase our TAG system hardware lease our TAG system hardware.

Monthly Service Fees are paid by all customers for the wireless data fee charges required to operate the GPS tracking on the TAG systems.

Monthly Rental Fees are paid by those customers that rent the TAG system hardware. The amount of a customer's monthly payment varies based on the type of equipment rented (a TAG, a TAG and INFINITY 7", or a TAG and INFINITY XL 12").

The market for the TAG System is the worldwide golf cart and Turf equipment fleets. There are 40,000 golf courses around the world with North America being the largest individual market with 20,000. This represents over 3,000,000 vehicles. The golf market has five distinct types of operations. Municipal, Private Country Clubs, Destination Resorts, Public Commercial, Military and University affiliated. VTS has deployed and has case studies developed TAG systems in each of these categories.

Our marketing strategy is focused on building brand awareness, generating quality leads, and providing excellent customer service.

DSG focuses on select global golf markets that offer significant volume opportunities and that value the benefits that our products deliver.

Currently DSG is focused on expanding in Europe, Asia and South Africa. The Company plans to expand next into Australia, New Zealand and Latin America.

DSG has dedicated a team to create specific collateral for this market and has assigned a senior executive to have direct responsibility to manage these relationships.

However, there can be no assurance that even if we do these things, we will be able to compete effectively with the other companies in our industry.

Our Operations Department's main functions are outlined below:

Another benefit of the simplified installation procedure is increased scalability in anticipation of increased number of installs in the future by reducing the skill level and training time requirements for additional contractors.

In addition, DSG began offering the DSG Par 72 Service & Support Plan to guarantee service and support to client courses in the golf business, during fiscal 2016. This program for client courses which guarantees service and support programs within 24 hours of a problem arising.

All hardware development (electronics and mechanical) is generally outsourced, however small projects like mounting solutions or cabling are handled in house.

EV sales in Latin America increased by 90% in 2018 due to growing demand in Mexico, Colombia and Costa Rica. While the Latin American EV market is far smaller than East Asia, Europe and North America, accounting for less than 1% of global EV sales in 2018, it is starting to grow thanks to a handful of incentives and targets. Mexico and Costa Rica, for example, exempt EVs from numerous taxes while Colombia has an ambitious target of 600,000 EVs on its roads by 2030.

The case for EVs is strong in Bermuda, as it is across the Caribbean. With predominantly flat terrain and driving distances that are short enough to eliminate "range anxiety," EVs make perfect sense.

Competition in the EV Market
