Companion
Animal Market

Over
the last several decades, we believe the animal health market and industry has a strong component in the overall U.S. economy and is
more resistant to economic cycles. The veterinary sector is an attractive area to participate in the growth of the broader healthcare
industry without reimbursement risk. The American Pet Products Association (APPA) 2021-2022 National Pet Owners Survey indicates that
$123.6 billion was spent on pets in the U. S. in 2021. Vet Care and product sales constitute about $34.3 billion of the market. The growth
in the U.S. companion animal market has been continuing to increase due to the increase in the number of pet-owning households.

The
APPA 2021-2022 National Pet Owners Survey indicates U.S. pet ownership reached record levels in 2022. Specifically, 70% of all U.S. households
owned a pet in 2022. That’s 90.5 million pet-owning households, up from 84.6 million in 2018. In 2022, dogs and cats were the most
popular pet species, owned by 69% and 45% of U.S. households, respectively. APPA also reported that there were 69.0 million dogs and
45.3 million cats in the U.S. APPA reported that 3.5% of U.S. households owned horses in 2022. According to the American Horse Council,
the total number of horses owned by U.S. households was 7.2 million.
