My management team and I remain focused on the wellbeing of our employees and their families as well with supporting our clients and the community.

We will provide transparency around three key initiatives that ensure teams corporate health and position us for the recovery.

First the safety of our people and business continuity second the previously announced decisive actions taken to align the business and our capacity with the near term decrease in activity and third our end market revenue diversification strategy.

This morning, I will start with a high level financial review and outline how we're managing our business through the pandemic. Susan will then detail our first quarter results from financial position after which I'll provide an overview of the market trends and an update on a one team program.

Our first quarter results were noticeably impacted by adverse market conditions consolidated first quarter revenues were $237 million down 12% from a year ago.

Despite lower year over year quarterly revenues of $33 million first quarter gross margin was $57.5 million or 24.3% on par with 24.5% in the prior year corner.

In addition, we were able to generate positive operating cash flow of approximately $1 million and reduce faster DNA expenses by $3.8 million when compared to the first quarter 2019.

Turning to our segment performance mechanical services first quarter revenues were $104.5 million down 14% from the first quarter of 29 team and adjusted EBITDA was $6.6 million a decline at 40% when compared to the same period last year.

After a slow start to the quarter mechanical services experienced increased field work from mid January into March until activity was impacted by the pandemic and the drop in global demand.

While the quarter did not meet our expectations mechanical services saw step change in its midstream work as pipeline operators performed ongoing integrity management programs. As an example team was engaged to supply over 250 Hot Captain Weinstock fittings bring integrity remediation project.

We manufactured in deliberate high quality stated the arc fittings on time and as a result decline awarded US a significant portion of their field activities for the remainder of 2020.

Inspection and heat treating revenues in the first quarter $107.9 million down 15.1% from the first quarter of 2019, and adjusted EBITDA was $3.6 million a decline of 43% from the prior year quarter.

Despite our HTS disappointing quarterly results, primarily in our downstream markets, we saw growth in power and pulp and paper sectors. This is an example of our successful revenue diversification initiative to leverage our skill sets and subject matter expertise across different industries and geographies.

[noise] Quest integrity continued its strong performance like increasing revenues by 16% and improving operating income by 271% over Q1 2019.

During the first quarter West completed its largest stepper LNG reactor turnaround and inspection in the middle East.

Using high resolution ultrasonic technology west inspected the reactors with our proprietary common header delivery system.

Advanced Engineering group performed a fitness for service assessment that enable declined to prioritize repairs and the resumed production quickly and safely.

Overall activity was negatively affected by the unprecedented economic crisis triggered by cold with 19 pandemic.

And volatility in commodity prices, driven by the oil and gas supply and demand imbalance. The first quarter 2020 revenue impact from these events was approximately $23 million.

In addition, the decision by Okay plus in early March to increase production combined with the spread of Corbett 19 into North America created an oversupply, causing oil demand to fall to an all time low.

Many of our clients reprioritized their operations, resulting in scope reductions on certain ongoing work deferrals or suspensions of plant maintenance projects and cuts in capital spend.

In order to proactively address the impact of the Pandemics and the oil and gas supply and demand imbalance. We quickly mobilized for task forces addressing health business continuity client engagement and cost and cash management. Each led by members of my executive team.

First the health task force to health and safety of our employees is our top priority in the pandemic that significantly disrupted the day to day lives with many of our people.

Following the guidelines set fire critical response team, we're taking the necessary precautions to protect our employees worldwide.

Onsite personnel were limited to those that are crucial decline operations and implemented social dispensing protocols, which include working in shifts to minute minimizing the risk of exposure.

The majority of teams end markets cannot be run remotely. Therefore, many of our refinery clients implemented temperature monitoring and screening to safely continue operations.

Along with our clients, we haven't powered our technicians to stop work and report any activities they deem to be unsafe.

Team is also strengthening worksite standards policies and procedures and develop decision, making protocols for both our district and client locations.

We have responded to more than 100 Klein inquiries to provide detailed information about our pandemic response plan, including pp measures and improvements exposure procedures and returned to work directors.

Same procured and distributed critical supplies to over 80 districts globally.

We're also helping our employees and their families by providing guidance on how to minimize the spread of the virus and sharing resources that our employees can utilize at home.

The business continuity task force was established a proactive we monitor fluctuations in our end markets and prepare for multiple scenarios with respect to project activity and our global workforce.

Together with our workforce management and supply chain functions, we accomplished the following.

Transition most non bill employees to operate remotely and implemented a work from home protocol to minimize risk exposure.

Limited traveling instituted shelter in place directors ordered excess reserves of manufacturing materials to mitigate supply chain disruptions and finally executed companywide cost measures.

James Global workforce management function allows us to sexually coordinate and forecast employee utilization communicate more effectively with our on site field technicians and provide ongoing logistical support to respond and mobilized on this dynamic environment.

With clients frequent changes to project scopes, our workforce management function has been diligently managing job requirements and the furlough scheduling.

The skip to ensure the capacity of our resource pool is balanced with our clients needs.

As a result, despite the slowdown in activity, we have been able to maintain our high technician utilization rates ranging between 85 and 90%.

I mentioned earlier that our clients are reevaluating their 2020 project schedule and capital spending plans, we establish the sales inclined engagement task force to proactively connect with each client define creative cost effective solutions to their pressing challenges for example, after a recent refinery explore.

Again, our nested crew recommended quest integritys unmanned aerial system, the safely capture images and data of the damage structures equipment and components.

Client engagement task Force is also looking beyond our current footprint and service offerings to support new industries by leveraging the skill sets of our technicians and advanced technologies. We are focused on diversifying into markets in industries that are experiencing less disruption.

Prioritizing those products and services that can best support the midstream power renewables utilities infrastructure and process related industries, we will leverage the strength of our three segments engineering and manufacturing capabilities and integrated solutions to lead the recovery.

Finally, our cost and cash management task force immediately implemented decisive aggressive actions to ensure that costs remain aligned with the reduced activity levels. These specific actions included reducing director executive and employee compensation.

Enacting furloughs and restricting unbilled time.

Executing a reduction in force, eliminating all non essential spend and working with our supply chain partners to reduce costs. These quick and decisive actions implemented during the last few weeks of March delivered more than $5 million of savings on the first quarter.

While we remain mindful of capital investments may be required to create competitive advantages from a cash perspective, we are laser focused on cash flow improvements, which include collections billing capex management and inventory reductions.

We will leverage the forecast forces through the recovery phase in order to prepare for prepare our workforce and best positioned team for the future I will now turn it over to Susan for a detailed financial review and then share more about our market trends and one team progress Susan Thank you, Dan Marino and good more.

Turning everyone is they Marino mentioned first quarter consolidated revenues of $237 million were down 12% from the first quarter 2019.

Its integrity increased revenues by 16% over the prior year, which was offset by revenue declines, a 14% and 15% and our mechanical services.

Section heat treating segments, respectively, Cobot, 19, pandemic and oil and gas supply and demand imbalance in fact that our revenues by approximately $23 million also contributing to the lower revenue was unseasonably warm weather in North America, and a delayed ramp up of activity following extended.

Your holiday.

After a slow start in January our international operations rebounded until mid February.

Several projects in Asia Pacific, United Kingdom, and the Central European Mark markets were delayed and subsequently deferred due to the pandemic.

Consolidated gross margin was $57.5 million or 24.3% compared with 24.5% and the same quarter a year ago.

The revenue decline, we generated favorable fall through due to the progress of the one team program and the implementation of our decisive cost cutting actions.

First quarter 2020 cost savings benefits of one team approximated $6.6 million.

On a segment basis for gross margin mechanical services decreased 22%.

On a 14% revenue decline.

Section and heat treating was down 17% on a 15% revenue decrease inquest increased 28% on a 16% revenue improvement.

Now moving to ask you name.

We continue to realize year over year reductions on estimate expense sure our cost management actions, including expansion of the one team program.

Total SDMA cost for the first quarter 2020 decreased $3.8 million or 4.7% from the first quarter 2019 $78.4 million.

Merely due to overall reduced compensation and travel costs on a sequential basis SDMA was down $1.3 million from $79.7 million in the fourth quarter 2019.

Cobot 19, the oil and gas supply and demand that balance and the impact to our stock price were deemed to be a triggering event requiring us to perform an interim goodwill impairment assessment. The results of the assessment an indicator the goodwill impairment had occurred in the IP segment under U.S. GAAP accounting rules, we recognize.

A noncash pretax goodwill impairment charge of under $91.8 million during the first quarter 2020. This had no other impact on the company's ongoing operation.

First quarter reported a net loss.

Under $99.7 million as compared to a loss of $24.2 million in the prior year quarter. Adjusted net loss non-GAAP major was $18 million or 59 cents adjusted net loss per diluted share for the first quarter 2020 compared to an adjusted net loss of nine.

$1.8 million worth 66 cents adjusted net loss per diluted share for the same quarter. In 2019 significant Q1, 2000 2020 adjustments included non cash goodwill impairment charge as well, it's $2.7 million and one team and other professional costs one point.

$3 million and nonrecurring legal cost.

Consolidated adjusted EBITDA was a lots of $3.9 million in the first quarter 2020, which was down from 3.8 billion dollar profit recorded in the first quarter of 2019 now turning specifically to our segment performance mechanical services segment delivered first quarter 2020 revenue.

$104.5 million down 14% from $121.5 million in the first quarter 2019.

Adjusted EBITDA was $6.6 million down from $11 million earned in the same period last year.

Inspection and heat treating segment reported first quarter 2020 revenues of $107.9 million down, 15% when compared to $127.1 million posted in the same period last year first quarter adjusted EBITDA was $3.6 million down from 6.3 million.

Callers in the prior year quarter, despite lower revenues in the fall through to EBTDA was fairly limited up 14%. This was largely the result at the effectiveness of the cost control action.

Yes integrity revenues of $24.4 million were up 16% over the prior year period of $21 million first quarter, adjusted EBITDA was $7 million or 173% higher than the last years quarter.

Our effective tax rate was approximately 9.3% compared to 1.4% in the first quarter 2019 or normalized effective tax rate is approximately 25% to 30%.

Company has domestic federal tax net operating losses of approximately $105 million, which are available to offset our future domestic federal taxable income during the quarter. We benefited from the cares act in carry back federal net operating losses in the prior years instead of carrying the losses forward, which accelerates a tax benefit.

And recovery of refunds.

In the first quarter team generated $917000 of operating cash flow.

Representing a decline of approximately $6.7 million over the same period in 2019 capital expenditures for the first quarter 2020 or $8.3 million.

Fourth the company's commitment commitment to free cash flow generation, we have lowered our 2020 annual capital expenditures plan by more than 30% our forecasted capital expenditures for 2020.

Approximately $20 million will be utilized venture funding of sustainable and safe operation for those projects that offer the highest rate of return.

Our cash and cash equivalents at the end of the first quarter was $20.5 million compared to $12.2 million at the end of the fourth quarter 2019 via the Undrawn borrowing base under our existing credit facility was approximately $100 million going into the second quarter.

We're in compliance with our bank covenants at March 31, 2020, or senior secured leverage ratio to ended the quarter was that 2.27 times.

We are pleased to have completed the credit facility Amendment and extension in the second quarter. The amended credit facility matures January 15, 2022 and provides us the additional covenant flexibility to operate through this recovery period, we believe that our liquidity resources are sufficient to meet our working capital needs and cash rich.

Firemen.

Financial priorities continue to be to conserve cash pay down debt and protect our balance sheet.

In closing we are prepared to take additional actions to further reduce our cost structure and asset base as market conditions warrant. Although our primary focus is cost and cash management, we will continue to evaluate future opportunities that deliver positive returns on investment or operational efficiency that completes the financial.

I'll review I will now turn the call back over Dan Marino. Thank you Susan before we take your questions I will provide an overview of the current market conditions and review some of our anticipated restructuring actions as we prepare for the recovery.

Despite the OPUC plus announcement in April to cut production output crude oil prices remained weak as a result of the shelter in place directives that were implemented to contain the spread of Colgate 19.

The demand destruction created by the pandemic occurred much faster than some supply could be reduced.

Triggering a rapid increase in crude inventory volumes.

According to data reduced demand for refined products caused refinery utilization rates have declined to 2008 levels.

Utilization rates have declined further in the second quarter, but we do expect to see a gradual recovery through the second half of the year.

Team would typically benefit for a period of 12 to 18 months following a utilization rate drop.

However, the pandemic and current market dynamics have delayed the demand growth for our products and services.

Before I share tier teams near term midterm and long term objectives I want to reiterate that no one can predict with any certainty the scale or length of disruption from covert 19, or how deep and severe the economic accounts impacts will be.

Our near term objective was to aggressively reduce our variable cost structure to align with the lower activity levels. We remain prepared to take additional actions as warranted to respond to the evolving business environment.

We believe the current market dynamics present, three near term opportunities for team first pure play refiners need to remain operational while they evaluate maintenance projects and ongoing regulatory compliance requirements second integrated clients will leverage their downstream businesses.

To mitigate the impact of lower oil prices on their consolidated results and third given the oversupply production increasing inventory levels. There is significant demand for transport and storage of both crude and petroleum products.

As shelter in place protocols are gradually lifted we expect gasoline and diesel demand to drive the recovery both of which according to data made up more than 70% of us production in 2019.

From a mid term perspective, we anticipate onstream and call of activity to lead the recovery followed by nested operations and later in the year projects and turnarounds, we maintain strong contact with our furlough technicians continue to provide them with health benefits and plan to ensure their certification.

Levels are preserved in order to quickly restart operations.

Teams scalable operating model and the depth and breadth of our products and services portfolio allows us to flex with business demands.

Order to deliver additional structural and permanent cost reductions, we have expanded and accelerated the next phase of the one team program.

This one team to not is a dedicated 10 to 12 weeks sprint accelerating initiatives that will further optimize the organization.

We estimate the one team to an up and other cost reduction actions will deliver between $20 million to $25 million of savings in the second quarter.

The long term fundamentals for our products and services remains strong as part of the critical in essential services network and in close collaboration with our clients team supports the performance efficiency and longevity of aging assets and ensures compliance with federal state and industry standards and regulator.

Okay.

I want to reiterate four of our competitive advantages first our scalable and agile structure increases our ability to flex with market demands, allowing us to be more responsive make well informed decisions and execute efficiently.

Second the operations planning capability of our workforce management function allows us to optimize the utilization of our resources globally.

Third our diverse blue chip client base and maturing sales and account management function provide a strong foundation to grow revenues and create value from our integrated solutions and fourth our innovative technology and industry, leading digital applications support our clients as they seek differentiate.

Good and cost effective solutions for their complex asset management challenges technology and digital applications also our clients to manage risk and minimize exposure of personnel in a post pandemic recovery.

As previously mentioned, we remain focused on managing what is in our control given the difficult but necessary cost actions implemented late in the first quarter.

We expect Q1 will mark the lowest quarterly year in terms of gross margin.

And adjusted EBITDA.

Looking forward, we anticipate our second quarter 2020 revenues to be approximately 35% to 40% below Q2 2019.

Also quest is experiencing lumpiness in the second quarter due to continued travel related restrictions and extended quarantine periods.

As a result of the full implementation of our cost and cash actions, we expect second quarter gross margin improvement when compared to Q1 2020, as well as positive adjusted EBITDA and free cash flow.

On a full year basis, we anticipate age to 2020 revenues to be higher than each one.

30% Capex reduction when compared to 29 team and positive free cash flow.

In closing we are confident team is well positioned to lead during this challenging environment and benefit through the recovery our experienced and knowledgeable leadership teams are executing on our near term midterm and long term strategies with comprehensive Playbooks, we would like to thank our shareholders for their support in patients.

And all our employees and their families for their commitment and dedication to team during this difficult period I.

I would like to especially thanks teams technicians on the front lines, who have continued to provide essential and exceptional services to our valued clients.

Our continued success as a direct result of their hard work and we look forward to building on this success in the second half of 2020 and beyond.

Operator, I'll now turn it over to you for the question and answer session.

Thank you as a reminder to ask a question you'll need to press star one on your telephone to withdraw your question because the pankey. Please standby will be compared to kinda give us the.

First question comes from Adam Sandler My with Thompson Davis. Your line is now open.

Thanks, Good morning.

Good morning, Hey, and Marino can you walk us through just trends in kind of April versus May versus June and kind of the latest on what do you have for how things might look in the back half.

Core demand.

Sorry, what was the last part that you said core demand I'm, just thinking about core demand.

Yeah, Okay. So.

Basically if we look into April may and then coming out in June if we take a look at Q2.

We do expect.

April and may to be our slowest.

Few months of the year.

We've seen obviously quite a bit of impact due to the demand side of core services, especially on the refining.

Some pipeline side on the flip side petrochemical.

Is starting to probably see the first parts of the recovery as shelter in places and consumer demand increases.

Coming into the second half of the year as I said in the script the prepared remarks.

We expect Onstream call Wild type work to to be first on the recovery.

Followed by nested, we see our nested business returning by the end of June and into July of this summer demand.

Increases obviously.

And then going into the second half of the year, although there are still variability on some projects and turnarounds, we're getting a lot better.

Visibility on on the timing of those turnarounds and obviously, they're going to be stronger than the first half, but but we do see a good project turnaround.

Pick up in the second half of the year again in our core industries.

The one thing that I'll say, Adam is that you know, it's really difficult right now for anybody to paint the market with one brush and what I mean by that is the different divisions.

And different pads on the refining side are recovering at different speeds. So we're seeing some good recovery right now going into June and in the West Division driven by California.

We we still see slow recovery in the Rockies area for example, but the east side is starting to open.

Texas Gulf in Louisiana, Gulf, we feel that they've troughed and we should start to see an improvement coming out of that area.

So it it is becoming a a region by region or pad by pad type business going forward.

Again, because we have the three legged stool of our segments our mechanical services.

Well to play in the Onstream business very well, we've got a good nested footprint that is getting back to work, we're starting to see the.

Potential recovery going into the second half all of that considered obviously I'm not factoring in any coal bid.

Shelter in place.

Ramp up or anything but continuing on the current path. That's how we see the core business and things evolving into the second half of the year internationally.

Europe is probably the laggard in terms of.

Utilization increases.

Middle East, we do see has remained fairly strong.

I had to put some shelters in place, but things are starting to open up there a little bit as well.

Perfect.

And then Susan just two quick ones for you and then I'll turn it over and I H.T. what's the.

What's the go forward quarterly DNA after the goodwill impairment.

And then curious on your thoughts on corporate cost because they're a little high in Q1 at $21 million, how would you set that for the rest of the year.

Okay well.

With the DNA on Dai Ichi I mean, we would still look it's it can be.

HM.

Lightly.

Lightly on there I'd say that 10, 10% drop over the.

Average quarterly DNA all night.

Okay, and then with respect to the corporate costs.

We are overall on the total company looking at 10% to 15% expectation of it decline in our SDMA.

Corporate.

That has had some fluctuations with respect to.

Services that we've transitioned from consultants the permanent employees and then additionally, looking at some technology and other programs that aren't adjustments that we adjust out for you know the one team program, but again overall, we would expect to see a decline of a 10% to 15.

Uh Huh reduction.

Okay.

Cost as we mentioned on previous calls you know we've had the increases associated with as we're looking at centralizing activities and cost assumptions. So.

We've had the increase overall again, we're going to see that decline going forward in the benefits of that structure change.

Okay. Thanks, I'll turn it over to appreciate it.

Thank you. Our next question comes from Sean Eastman with Keybanc capital markets. Your line is now open.

Hi, everyone. Thanks for taking my questions.

Is there anything to note on the competitive environment here just in terms of pricing behavior.

And for Ms positions.

Through the kind of crisis period and and.

Maybe as we start to see a recovery any kind of shifts and.

Customer requests or anecdotal.

Evidence that perhaps.

Got it can larger scale could come out of this.

Stronger position.

Sure Sean I'll start so basically.

With the reduction in demand.

Obviously, there is there's a significant amount.

Of.

Discussions around.

Competitive pressures and their actions as well as the the client.

Working closely with us and I would break it up into two buckets Theres. The client group that is just wanting a price reduction and then there's the client group that wants to reduce their total cost of ownership which includes.

Things like technologies, combining product lines to increase volume reduce exposure using technology to reduce labor and exposure you know around risk.

Safety et cetera. So.

I'll take them one at a time the first one is the group that's just looking for a straight price reduction.

Obviously, there is safety costs that have increased but we're working with them.

Again, just like on the way up on the pricing and gross margin improvement, we're working with them one on one to to try and minimize any cost or price relief to a short amount of time and I would say three to six months for us to get through this recovery period. So in no.

Cases, right now have we had to go beyond.

We ended the year basically and I think that we've got strong client relationships.

We have our enterprise account group and strong relationship through our sales team. So in that group. So far we've been successful to do that.

The group that's looking at total cost reduction overall of their spend just to be ready for the for the ramp up again, if you will have the increase in utilization and that group. We've been successful assigning project managers, we've been successful at bringing in multiple segments and increase.

Leasing our footprint.

Within that clients to reduce their overall cost and that's headcount cost sharing of resources et cetera, et cetera, so that groups a bit more progressive in terms of looking at overall cost reductions not just pricing only.

What I would say within that group as well is a lot of our digital applications and some of our remote robotics are assisting us to just be able to perform services at minimize cost and risk and then from a competition standpoint as you know at least.

Inspection heat treating a mechanical services played very fragmented markets. We've seen a lot of you know.

Competition, taking different actions from the smaller companies.

Meeting two are wanting to drop direct margin than gross margin quickly to others being a lot more controlled and contained like we're doing we don't want to lose the work we've done over the last two years to improve gross margin in three to six months we.

We need to be very calculated and make sure that we're we're managing that and so I think from a competitive standpoint, we're seeing both extremes.

We are.

Doing a significant number of reviews. Our VP is are very involved in approving any pricing that's below thresholds that we don't want to achieve or or or reach so it's a little bit of a mixed bag right now obviously theres a lot of volatility because of the environment. We're in.

The other thing that all say is a lot of our larger clients and what we would consider our top 20 integrated and MSC clients are using this opportunity to also consolidate the number of suppliers. They have working for them and thats been very very good.

Discussion, that's where we start looking at longer term partnerships and and we get held accountable for our execution and they achieve better better service and safety and obviously technology. So thats a little bit of a long answer to your question, but Q2 is been a very volatile.

Ill.

Quarter by weakened by month, and again, it's hard to paint to everything with one brush. So those are the three buckets that.

What I would I would answer your question.

Got it.

And then I just wondered in light of the pretty aggressive cost actions accelerating to the one team initiatives.

Around as challenging environment just.

How you would frame.

The margins in a recovery scenario to the extent, we're starting to merge back toward a more normalized operating environment. In 2021, just how much kind of margin flow through incremental margin you could get.

Postoperative.

Cost actions weve taken in the second quarter.

The idea on how to frame that would be helpful.

Sure. So I think the first thing is we're not providing right now.

The Q2 call, we're going to have a lot better visibility on the second half than the recovery yet so I'm going to limit my answer on this one but I will provide a little bit of color overall, our leadership team for the last couple of years has been dealing with restructuring and cost reductions and we've continued to.

Deliver quarter by quarter on the commitments that that we've made what we did once the pandemic and the the demand reduced.

As we looked at what we had pushed out to 2021.

And when I said, we accelerated that to one team. It's a lot of our centralized initiatives relooking at our district and division footprint, both domestically and internationally and doing a full review of our underperforming businesses. So we we accelerated some of those because it was a good cash.

Catalyst period to take action.

The savings that we're looking at right now.

Which I mentioned and Susan highlighted as well, it's about a 50 50 split between.

Thanks Gene a.

As well you know versus let's call it indirect and variable.

And we expect between 40 and 45% of those costs to be permanent going forward. Okay. In terms of the overall impact for the year of the costs are our variable costs.

Through furloughs.

Supply chain and other other measures salary reductions et cetera.

A lot of that stuff, we're going to be reviewing it quarter by quarter, and we're not going to take any movement upwards, obviously or add cost until we have a good handle on the stability of the recovery. We have we're prepared to take additional actions.

As or if it goes lower but we do we are starting to see our billable hours increasing in through June.

Like I like I said to Adam maybe and April were the troughs.

But overall I feel that the organization and I have full confidence that they acted quickly. They followed the action plans and trackers and one thing that they've shown over the last two years is the ability to execute once a plan is put in place both on the way down.

Now as well as on the way up and then obviously, we continue to keep a very structured approach on that but but are you know I would say, 40% to 45% will be a permanent.

Cost removal and the rest are variable.

Okay. Thanks, very much I'll turn it over.

Thank you.

As a reminder to ask a question you will need to press star one on your telephone.

Next question comes from Stefan US Christ, Let's CJ Securities. Your line is now open.

Good morning, and thank you for the time.

Since we're just talking about the cost savings just wanted to clarify where the 20 to 25 million in Q2 is that inclusive of the 5 million from Q1 present in additional.

And is that about a run rate of what we should see or is there potential for further costco.

The 20 to 25 years is.

Additional in.

Second quarter on but it would include any of that comp reductions or anything that started in the last week at March essentially so it's just the comparative on the reduction in Q2.

Going forward again, we are looking and will continually recalibrate cost reductions and where we.

Need to make adjustments so that could.

Good.

Adjust out over the next few quarters, but I think for now, but 20 to 25, good range and again looking at it overall, 10%, 15% reduction with SDMA cod.

Got it thank you.

And then I just wanted to ask about the credit facility. So you talked about covenant.

Changes in the capacity was reduced to 200 million are there any other major changes the covenants that we should know though.

So yeah with respect to the covenants.

We did have a net leverage ratio that is being waves from Q2 through the ended the year and it comes back in effect in Q1 2021 on Additionally, there are reductions on to that.
