The decrease in total revenues for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 is mainly due to the decline in demand for the Company’s products and services resulting from changes in the overall market.

Total cost of revenues decreased by $675,680 and $314,022, or approximately 70.63% and 23.35%, as compared to the corresponding periods in 2018. The decrease in cost of revenues was primarily due to the decrease in revenues.
