spk01: Thank you for standing by, and welcome to the FTC Solar fourth quarter 2023 earnings conference call. All participants are in listen-only mode. After the speaker's presentation, there will be a question and answer session. To ask a question at that time, please press star 11 on your telephone. Please be advised that today's call is being recorded. I will now turn the conference over to your host, Mr. Bill Michalik, Vice President, Investor Relations. Please go ahead.
spk02: Thank you, and welcome, everyone, to FTC Solar's fourth quarter 2023 earnings conference call. Before today's call, you may have reviewed our earnings release and supplemental financial information, which were posted earlier today. If you've not reviewed these documents, they're available on the investor relations section of our website at ftcsolar.com. I'm joined today by Imad Shatila, a member of the board of directors and a company founder, Kathy Bainan, the company's chief financial officer, and Patrick Cook, the company's chief commercial officer. Before we begin, I remind everyone that today's discussion contains forward-looking statements based on our assumptions and beliefs in the current environment and speaks only as of the current date. As such, these forward-looking statements include risks and uncertainties, and actual results and events could differ materially from our current expectations. Please refer to our press release and other SEC filings for more information on the specific risk factors. We assume no obligation to update such information. This is required by law. As you'd expect, we'll discuss both GAAP and non-GAAP financial measures today. Please note that the earnings release issued this afternoon includes a full reconciliation of each non-GAAP financial measure to the nearest applicable GAAP measure. In addition, we'll discuss our backlog and our definition of this metric included in our press release. With that, I'll turn the call over to Ahmad.
spk05: Thanks, Bill, and good afternoon, everyone. I'm joining the call today as the representative of the board as the company progresses through this interim period prior to announcing our next CEO. As discussed on last call, I've been helping facilitate communication between management and the board and monitoring key growth activities and initiatives during this interim period. On today's call, I'll touch on some of the recent progress the team has made and address the CEO search before turning it over to Cathy to review the financials. At a high level, I'd summarize the key takeaways from this call in the following way. One, fourth quarter financial results were in line with our targets. Two, following an 18-month stretch with limited purchase orders, which has led to depressed revenue levels, the company has seen an acceleration in closing purchase orders, which improves visibility and lays the foundation for a second-half revenue recovery. And three, the company is progressing well and improving efficiencies and lowering the break-even revenue level. Based on the management team's current outlook, the company expects to grow revenue in 2024 and transition into profitability on a quarterly basis in the second half of the year. So what are some of the issues the company has faced and what progress has been made recently? First, and most importantly, the company has seen an acceleration of contracted projects or signed purchase orders. From January 2022 through June 2023, while we continued to grow our contracted and awarded projects largely through project awards, we had depressed levels of contracted projects and slower rate of conversion from awarded to contracted projects. That has led to current depressed revenue levels, which we now expect to trough here in the first half of 2024. More recently, the company has been laser focused on customers, spending as much time with them as possible in a cross-functional effort to improve engagement and best support the full range of customer needs. Aside from intense customer focus, the company has also been enhancing its product portfolio. The combination of these efforts has resulted in a significant increase in the rate of contracted projects, about 50 million per month over the past eight months. And it has been accelerating every quarter. This includes greater success in converting previously awarded projects into contracted projects with purchase orders. The sustained booking success we've seen now is the foundation for the revenue recovery that will start in earnest in the second half of this year. Frankly, That rate should be many times larger than $50 million per month, and that's how we're driving it. But we're heading in the right direction and rebuilding. Based on the success, contracted projects are now approximately $415 million of the total backlog. On the backlog, the board has reviewed and is comfortable with the company's $1.7 billion in backlog. However, it has been heavily skewed towards awarded versus contracted historically. resulting in less visibility as to when such awarded but uncontracted projects will convert to purchase orders and revenue. As noted, we have made significant progress recently on having a higher percentage of the backlog be attributable to contracted projects. Backlog also continues to be heavily skewed towards US and 2P projects. The US currently represents 80% of backlog. In terms of technology, about 72% of backlog is 2P, and the remaining 18% being either 1P or a combination of 1P and 2P. The majority of projects added over the last two quarters have been 1P, helping to diversify backlog. Second, the market for 2P trackers have recovered, and we have our strongest and most comprehensive product portfolio to date. In 2022, amid the module shortage, there was about 80% drop in the market for 2P trackers. as more scarce modules were largely allocated to relatively easier project sites, which tended to be 1P. With module availability improved, we're seeing a more normalized market for 2P with a very good pipeline activity. We're also seeing a ramp in interest in our 1P Pioneer tracker, which was certified in the third quarter of last year. Pioneer brings to 1P much of what customers have loved about our 2P technologies. When the company added a 1P tracker alongside our 2P solution and software, we thought of our ability to be truly solution-oriented partner for our customers, and that we could truly be technology agnostic and optimize each individual project site to maximize the benefit to our customers. We now have several examples of projects or portfolios of projects that we have won that have combined both 1P and 2P technologies with many more in the pipelines. Third, we are improving business processes. As Shaker noted on the November call, that while the company has become more efficient and lowered product costs, there were opportunities to accelerate decision making, close gaps within the product portfolio faster, and increase customer interaction. The company, under the leadership of Cathy, Sasan, and Patrick, has been diligently focused on improving business processes across the board. emphasizing customer engagement, customer satisfaction, and purchase orders. Customer visits have increased tenfold and broadened across functions to accelerate the feedback loop on quality, product roadmap, and future needs, and enhance overall customer experience. This is augmented by a newly formed customer advisory board to which we've appointed renewable expert Anthony Carroll as chairman. We've also implemented a net promoter score system to help us better measure and drive engagement in such an action. Fourth, we continue to further improve our cost roadmap to enable higher sustainable long-term gross margins. The company's cost roadmap has historically been hampered by high steel content due to the shift to large format modules, which was exacerbated during the steel price dislocation in 2021. The company has made great strides in optimizing steel content and bringing manufacturing costs in line with those of its leading competitors. This has helped us significantly improve average new product project margins, which has started to show through our financials. In addition, we expect continued cost improvements over the next 18 months as the company continues to work on its design to value and design to manufacturing initiatives, supported by rigorous process and excellent engineering team. We are confident that these improvements and strength of our average new project margins will enable greater than 20% gross margin in the future as our revenue level scales. And finally, our breakeven cost has been greatly improved. Our breakeven revenue level has historically been well over 100 million per quarter. We've now brought that down to what we believe to be approximately 50 to 60 million going forward, depending whether or not we pay a bonus. This reduction has been driven by higher direct margins as well as a reduction in keen focus on OPEX and overhead costs. Our operating expenses in Q4, for example, were the lowest level in nearly two years as we have focused on operational efficiency while maintaining or increasing investment in key areas that support growth and pipeline conversion like a strengthened sales team. So overall, while the near-term depressed revenue level is disappointing, I believe the company is making good progress in repositioning for a strong recovery. The company has an expanding portfolio of excellent tracker solutions that are well regarded in the industry. Customer engagement is the top priority. We're already seeing an improvement in purchase orders that are the foundation for our revenue growth in the future. The market for 2P trackers is improving. We are improving our systems and process across the board, including pricing. We have a product cost structure to enable 20% plus long-term gross margin and company cost structure, which has been reduced to enable quarterly profitability in 2024. We have a lot of things going for us. With a great team, it's really just a matter of getting revenue level up to see the profitability and cash flow potential to start to show through. And the last topic for me is just a quick update on the set of CEO search. As Shaker outlined on the November call, we want to be very deliberate in our approach. We did not want to disrupt the progress on key initiatives of the company and wanted to take our time to find the right CEO. That said, we have started the process and have seen a great deal of interest. The board is focusing the process on highly qualified candidates, both within the industry and adjacent industries, to identify a CEO capable of leading the company for a long tenure. We have a short list of excellent candidates. The board will plan to name a successor at the appropriate time when the process has concluded. With that, I'll turn it over to Kathy.
spk00: Thanks, Ahmad, and good afternoon, everyone. I'll provide some additional color on our fourth quarter performance and our outlook. Beginning with the discussion of the fourth quarter, revenue came in at $23.2 million, which was at the midpoint of our target range. This revenue level represents a decrease of 24.1% relative to last quarter and 11.5% relative to the year-ago quarter. Gas gross profit was $.7 million, or 3% of revenue, compared to gross profit of $3.4 million, or 11.1% of revenue, in the prior quarter. On a non-GAAP basis, gross profit was $1.1 million or 4.8% of revenue. While down sequentially from a normalized 9.5% in Q3 on lower revenue and cost absorption, the fourth quarter margin represents our fourth consecutive quarter of positive gross margin and was toward the high end of our guidance range. We continue to believe that we have significant margin upside when our revenue level recovers. Our GAAP operating expenses were $12.4 million. On a non-GAAP basis, excluding stock-based compensation and certain other costs, operating expenses were $10.8 million, which includes a $3.1 million credit loss provision relating to a specific customer account that was not included in our guidance ranges. Excluding this charge, our non-GAAP operating expenses would have been $7.8 million below or better than our guidance range and representing the lowest level in more than two years as we have diligently looked for efficiencies across the company while continuing to invest strategically in areas that support growth. That normalized $7.8 million would compare to a normalized $9.2 million in the prior quarter and $10 million in the year-ago quarter. GAAP net loss was $11.2 million, or $0.09 per share, compared to a loss of $16.9 million, or $0.14 per share, in the prior quarter and a net loss of $20.5 million, or $0.20 per share, in the year-ago quarter. Adjusted EBITDA loss, which excludes approximately $1.1 million, including stock-based compensation expense and other non-cash items, was $10.1 million, compared to losses of $9.7 million in the prior quarter and $11 million in the year-ago quarter. Excluding the $3.1 million charge, adjusted EBITDA loss would have been $7 million, better than the midpoint of our guidance. To touch briefly on annual results, full year 2023 revenue was $127 million, representing a 3.2% increase versus 2022. The increase was primarily attributable to higher product volume and ASPs, partially offset by a decline in logistics revenue and ASPs. GAAP gross profit was $8.3 million, or 6.5% of revenue, compared to gross loss of $27.2 million, or negative 22.1% of revenue, in the prior year. On a non-GAAP basis, gross profit was $10.6 million, or 8.4% of revenue, compared to a gross loss of $23.3 million, or 18.9% of revenue, in the prior year. The company's product cost reduction efforts, including its design-to-value initiative to improve product direct margins, is the primary driver of the significant year-over-year improvement. GAAP operating expenses were $59.1 million on a non-GAAP basis. OPEX was $43.9 million, which includes approximately $7.4 million in credit loss provision. Excluding this amount, our operating expenses would have been $36.5 million. This compares to $41.5 million on a similar basis in the prior year. Gap net loss was $50.3 million compared to $99.6 million in 2022. Adjusted EBITDA loss, which excludes stock-based compensation expense and other non-cash items, was $34.1 million compared to a loss of $66.4 million in 2022. Finally, regarding liquidity, we ended the quarter with $25.2 million in cash on the balance sheet. Our receivables are about five times our payables, and based on expected timing of payments and deposits, we expect cash to be about flat sequentially in Q1. We continue to hold no debt on the balance sheet, and have about $65 million remaining under the ATN program at the end of the quarter. As previewed on the last call, we did not utilize the ATM in Q4, and we similarly don't plan to utilize it in Q1. With all these factors and the expected customer deposits, we will tightly manage those deposits and supplier payments. Our backlog has now grown to $1.7 billion, with approximately $213 million added since November 8th. With that, let us turn our focus to the outlook. Based on our current view, we expect first quarter revenue to be down sequentially and represent the trough in the revenue for the year. Specifically, our targets for the first quarter call for the following. Revenue between $10 million and $15 million, non-GAAP growth loss between $3.8 million and $1.8 million, or between negative 38% and 12% of revenue. As you might expect, the percentage ranges vary more greatly at these lower revenue levels. Non-GAAP operating expenses between $8 million and $8.9 million. And finally, adjusted EBITDA loss between $12.6 million and $9.8 million. Beyond Q1, we expect to see sequential revenue growth for the remainder of the year, with revenue being weighted towards the second half. We expect to be approximately break-even on an adjusted EBITDA basis in the third quarter, before moving squarely profitable in the fourth quarter. With that, we conclude our prepared remarks, and I will turn it over to the operator for any questions. Operator?
spk01: Thank you. Again, ladies and gentlemen, if you'd like to ask a question, please press star 11 on your telephone. Again, to ask a question, please press star 11. One moment for our first question. Our first question comes from the line of Philip Shin of Roth. Your line is open.
spk06: Hi, everyone. Thanks for taking my questions. A couple of years ago, your business customer wins and momentum were rising pretty quickly in an oligopolistic market. I believe the JNCO and Long G module UFLPA detentions really hurt you guys. That said, these module vendors have been cleared and are shipping actively into the U.S. and have been for some time. Why haven't you been able to ramp your revenues with them? Were there previously awarded orders, for example, that you ended up losing to others? Can you give us some color on what's happening as these guys ramp up, although on your side, you're not able to ramp up as quickly? Thanks.
spk09: No, Phil, thanks for the question. I mean, I think we haven't seen any material contract cancellations, you know, really first and foremost. And the second part is, you know, we're seeing the ramp back in 2P, you know, with these contracts and the orders that are moving from our backlog into our, you know, into POs and revenue. That ramp's just been, quite frankly, a little bit slower than what, you know, anybody was expecting.
spk06: Okay. Thanks, Patrick. You know, shifting over to, I think you guys said of the $1.7 billion of backlog, maybe $450 million or ish, you know, roughly that number is contracted. Can you kind of correct that figure? And then also, how much is expected to be delivered in 24? So if you just look at the contracted volumes, how much is set up for 24? Thanks.
spk09: yeah so let me clarify the uh kind of 1.7 billion so 415 uh million of the 1.7 has has purchase orders uh some of those have uh defined schedules and some of those uh schedules are working through with the customers and you know kathy we're not giving quarterly kind of breakdown of guidance on where that 415 is ultimately going to uh going to play out
spk06: Right. Can you give it by year, though, if not quarterly? Like how much of that 415 is in 24 versus 25 or beyond?
spk00: You know, we're not giving the full year guidance, but that, you know, those are, you know, starting to move. And if you look at kind of how we have laid it out, we've given you what our Q1 guidance is. We showed you that we're moving to breakeven in Q3 and that we'll be profitable in Q4. So I think if you kind of model that out, that gives you a baseline of what's coming through in 2024, and the rest will be coming in beyond that.
spk06: Okay. All right. I see the sequential growth. I just don't know what is the rate of growth. So it's a little bit tough to get, I guess, with the breakeven and profitability in Q4. That helps. You know, execution has been tough, I know. Some of our recent checks suggest you may need to win back the trust of customers. How do you go about doing that? I know it's one step at a time in execution improvement, but have you guys thought through or can you communicate what that plan might be? Thanks.
spk05: Yeah, thank you, Phil. This is Ahmad. You're correct. We had missteps in the past. That's why we are where we are. But the team has done an amazing job over the last eight months. Actually, even the prior management teams, they really have worked very hard to correct a lot of issues in the past. And by having intense external focus, upgrading the quality systems, improving our cost roadmap, broadening our portfolio so that the sales teams, when they go meet customers, they have more than just 2P to sell. And even in the 2P product, there was not enough variety in it, what we're finding. And that portfolio got improved a lot over the last couple of years, and we continue to improve it now. And because of that, we're able to really book $50 million a month. That's a significant number, like $150 million a quarter. And that's how the team is correcting itself.
spk06: Okay. Thank you for the color, Ahmad, Patrick, Kathy. I'll pass it on.
spk05: Thank you.
spk01: Thank you. One moment, please. Our next question comes from the line of Pavel Malchanov of Raymond James. Your line is open.
spk03: Yeah, thanks for taking the question. So you've clearly been taking quite a bit of corporate costs out of the system. That Q1 run rate of between $8 and $9 million in NUMGAP operating expenses is Is that kind of the steady state for the rest of the year, or does it have further room to decline?
spk05: I'll start with this, and Kathy, you can add. The answer is this is the run rate. We might increase it in the second half of the year a little bit, Pavel. The team is trying to invest in sales and engineering. I think we cut a lot of the overhead, the things that we didn't need, as much, but you can expect that that's the run rate and it might increase a little bit in the second half of the year because we want to add more salespeople. We want to add more engineering.
spk00: Yeah, and I would just add on to that that, you know, we have really worked on this diligently, and we do keep, you know, a very laser focus on our operating expenses and just continue to drive it, right? So we control the things we can control, and so we've really managed that. We have improved our processes and systems to really continue that control and have that monitoring, you know, through good metrics and strong reviews on a period-over-period basis.
spk03: You mentioned that bulk of the backlog and new additions are domestic. If we go back a few years, you were making a strong effort to diversify into Australia, parts of Africa, and so forth. Given the amount of headcount that you've cut, are you able to to play in these overseas geographies?
spk05: The answer is yes, Pavel Dezamad. Absolutely, we can. Some of the overhead we cut is because we learned that we don't need it. And we might need to add a little bit more salespeople, more effective salespeople in various regions. Let me go back also to a prior question. We cut OPEX because it's not because we want to be a company that is smaller in revenue. We're trying to be efficient. We're not going to scale the company to be a $30 million a quarter company. We do not believe that. We're booking at $50 million a month. I recognize that we cannot be $50 million in revenue a month soon, but as long as we continue that trend, and it's accelerating, actually. In Q3, Q4 is better than Q3, and so far in Q1, it's better than Q4. one day the revenue can expand. So we actually want to set the company for nice growth and high profitability while being efficient. We have enough resources to be in the 50 to 75 million booking a month. I think if we want to grow to 150, then we might add more people and expand internationally more aggressively. I hope that gives you some color.
spk03: Yeah, and then maybe just following up on the international aspect, last August you announced a good-sized deal with a developer in Italy and Spain, and I think the plan was to start delivering late 23 and kind of continue through 24. Is that timetable still correct?
spk09: Yeah, you know, from those projects, that was the announcement we did with 5E, the 350-megawatt portfolio. You know, we're looking still at the majority of that revenue to be delivered, you know, kind of in 2024 and, like we said, into 2025. We saw a couple project delays in small nature in 2023, but, you know, largely the portfolio is still intact.
spk03: All right. Thanks very much.
spk01: Thank you. Thank you. Our next question comes from the line of Jeff Osborne of TD Cowan. Your line is open.
spk07: Hey, good evening. A couple questions on my side. I was wondering, Ahmad, if you could just address, you know, in looking back, the awarded backlog conversion into the contracted under the prior management team, you know, as you diagnose why that was a challenge, is there a way of framing that?
spk05: Yeah, Jeff, first of all, I want to thank the prior management team to really growing the business to that level. I think, you know, a lot of it had to do that we needed everyone to be on the road, also to help customers move the awarded to contracted. And adding more sales people. getting stuff done internally, and that's what it is really. It's a lot of blocking and tackling. And I think we learned our lessons, and now we're going to intensify that activity, Jeff.
spk07: Good to hear. And then you made some comments that I just wanted to tie into the financials as well, but you made reference to using more steel than your peers. and then a 12 to 18-month sort of design to value and redesign of the portfolio to use less steel, if I heard you right, to get to the 20% gross margin level. Is the comment about the 50 to 60 million in revenue in the third quarter, depending on the bonus payment schedule, does that assume that you hit a 20% gross margin, or do you hit 20% after that 18-month time period?
spk05: You know, I could We do not hit 20% gross margin in Q3 because we have absorption issues. So the way I look at it is direct margin. And the answer is we are on a good path. Already at this moment, we are competitive on steel content. Maybe with a little bit better scale, we can negotiate better with steel manufacturers. I think maybe that's an area we can improve or some of our logistics and supply chain networks in certain international areas we can improve. I think to get to 20% gross margin, we need more than $50 million. How much, Kathy, do you think we need to be at? Like $100 million a quarter? Yeah. I would say we need to be at $105 million a quarter, and we'll get to 20% gross margin. Yes, $105 million. Okay?
spk07: Got it. Thanks for being precise. Last question is just as it relates to the IRA. Is there any credits assumed in the guidance for Q1, or how do we think about that for the outlook for the year?
spk00: No, we have not assumed the credits into our guidance. You know, we are utilizing our facility at Alta Steel, so we have capacity to, you know, manufacture domestic content and provide that to our customers as needed. But we have not put that into our forecasted, you know.
spk07: Perfect. That's all I have. Thank you, Kathy.
spk01: Thank you. Thank you, Jeff. Thank you. One moment, please. Our next question comes from the line of Donovan Schaefer of Northland Capital Markets. Your line is open.
spk08: Hey, guys. Thanks for taking the questions. So, Ahmad, first I just want to clarify with your comment around, you know, you're being at a rate, you have a monthly sort of run rate, I guess, right now of booking $50 million per month or adding that to the backlog. Do you mean $50 million that goes into that PO bucket, you know, a purchase order that's contracted? Or is it some of that, does that include awards or projects that go into the awarded bucket? And if it's not one or the other, can you give any kind of rough, you know, if it's not 100% one or 100% the other, can you give some rough sense of what kind of a mix we're talking there?
spk05: Yes, it's 100% POs, purchase orders, contracted. The awarded is higher than that.
spk08: Okay, fantastic. Okay. And then for accounts receivable, yeah, I think in the past, so that's come down a bit, but not a lot, just on a quarter-over-quarter basis. And given the fairly low level of revenues in Q3 and Q4, yeah, I would have expected it to maybe come down a bit more. And I think in the past, you've maybe even talked about improving those collections as a way of providing some of the nearer-term funding. So just wondering if we can get an update there. You know, it looks like there was, you know, I think Kathy mentioned that some of that was written down, but are there other amounts in the accounts receivable that are past, you know, 90 days or could be coming under pressure for additional write-downs? Just any updates or clarification that would be helpful.
spk00: Yeah, sure, Donovan. No, I'm not anticipating any other write-downs in the accounts receivable balance.
spk08: Okay. And then... Just, let's see, talking about Q1 as the trough, you know, on the Q3 call, I think I looked back at the transcript and, you know, Patrick made the comment that you were expecting to improve revenue performance in the first quarter. And obviously with the guidance that's come out, you know, that hasn't played out as expected. So what is it that gives you that, you know, what gives you confidence this time around, I guess, that Q1 will be the trough, and you'll see that additional growth in Q2, Q3 that gets you to the break even. What do you see now that's different?
spk05: Thank you, Donovan. This is Ahmad again. What we see is more contracted than before. That's what we see. I mean, let me make a statement about infrastructure projects. By default, they are never on time. But we do not want to use that excuse. Our problem is we're a smaller company. And because of that, we get a lot of whiplash because we're smaller and subscale. And as we increase our bookings all the time and get to hopefully $150 million a month, then our forecasting will become much, much better. So that's our issue. But what happened since last time is we have a lot more contracted than before. So we are more confident right now than the last time that we did the forecast.
spk08: Okay, thank you. That's helpful. All right, I'll take the rest of my questions offline.
spk05: Thank you, Donovan.
spk01: Thank you. Again, ladies and gentlemen, if you'd like to ask a question, please press star 11 on your telephone. Again, to ask a question, please press star 11. One moment. Our next question comes from the line of Amit Dayal of HC Wainwright. Your line is open.
spk04: Thank you, Graf and everyone. Most of my questions have been asked, but I just wanted to touch on the backlog number. In the footnotes in the press release, you indicate some of the backlog is verbal. I just wanted to understand what the extent of the backlog in that number is from the verbal side of things.
spk09: and what are the triggers that you know convert this backlog into contracted orders yeah we didn't break it out by um you know what's verbal and what's not i mean i think the disclosure we put in here was really more tied to the purchase orders and uh for 15 million of the 1.7 has you know purchase orders associated with it um you know the way we look at kind of the rest of the backlog is through LOIs or verbal agreements in which we check with their customers on a monthly and quarterly basis to make sure these projects are progressing. A lot of it is just candidly working with the customers to define the delivery schedules they're getting modeled. Some of these projects we talked about in previous quarters are 2025 NTP-type projects. better out into the future as well. So there's a little bit of mix and breakdown as it relates to that.
spk04: Okay, thank you for that. And maybe just the last one for me. You know, as you sort of get into a recovery phase, you know, revenue starts climbing, et cetera, you know, to the $50 million plus levels, how do you feel with respect to your working capital situation to sort of meet that level of demand, you know, with what your balance sheet looks like right now?
spk00: Yeah, I think that we're, you know, we're managing our working capital and I think we have sufficient working capital to meet the ramps that we have, that we see in the back half of the year. You know, we really look at managing the cash. We look at the fact that we have no debt and we look at the fact that, you know, we have significantly more receivables than we have payables and we continue to manage that. Our project we look at from a cash flow positive approach in terms of deposits that we receive from customers. So it really helps us to manage through the working capital needs.
spk04: All right, guys. Thank you. That's all I have. Appreciate it. Thank you.
spk01: Thank you. I'm showing no further questions at this time. Ladies and gentlemen, this does conclude today's conference. Thank you all for participating. You may now disconnect. Have a great day.
