From recent Form 10 - Q

All significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Operating results for the six months ended September 30, 2016 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2017.

------------------------

Intercompany transactions can be difficult to identify, and so require a system of controls to ensure that each of these items is properly identified and brought to the attention of the corporate accounting staff. The issue is of particular concern when an acquisition has just been completed, since the reporting controls are not yet in place at the new acquiree. If an enterprise resource planning (ERP) system is in place throughout the company, these transactions can typically be identified by flagging a transaction as it is created as being an intercompany item. ---------------------------------------------------------------
