It

Hi'

"I was reminded of this in my end-of-year clear-out, when I found a glossy brochure from a public affairs company (euphemism for lobbyist) soon after the 2010 election. It tried to identify future prime ministers among the new intake of MPs, but it did a poor job of it, partly because it made no attempt to be systematic. [From The Independent.]

Does the pronoun "it" (used 4 times in the sentence) refer to the "glossy brochure from a public affairs company"?

Thank you.
