A year after the release of the armor, the company began expanding outside of Earth and the human race. John began allowing his company to sell to council races, mostly turians. With the gained success, his company gained a rival, Sea Leaf. Sea Leaf sold to species that John refused to; he said that he realized selling to cherovs was wrong.

He often spoke about how missing his daughter grow was his biggest mistake. He also said that he was glad that she became a guard for his company after leaving the Alliance, he felt that it brought them closer together.
