Thanks, Rami and welcome everyone. We delivered strong fourth quarter results and full year 2020 results I am incredibly proud of what we have accomplished this year despite the challenging environment.
The pandemic impacted business operations across industries around the globe of course take us all to adapt.
In the retail space supply chain disruptions of our fast tracking of the digital transformation.
To protect business continuity and future proof of operations retailers are expanding their supplier networks and asking trading partners to implement or improved E commerce capabilities.
In addition to changing consumer preferences.
Dynamics resulted in an acceleration in demand for Adi driving strong momentum in fulfillment.
For the full year revenue revenue grew 12% the $312 6 million and recurring revenue grew 13%.
Adjusted EBITDA grew 25% to $87 million.
Our consistent focus on profitability resulted in adjusted EBITDA margins of 28% in 2020 up from 25% in 2019 and 21% in 2018.
In addition to our strong financial performance I'd like to call out several notable highlights.
We achieved 16% year over year organic growth in fulfillment in the fourth quarter of three point increase from the first quarter of 2020.
Volume of drop ship orders filled through our network more than doubled as compared to pre pandemic levels.
We grew net new customer adds by 27% in 2020, which excludes the recent data Maisons acquisition.
The dynamics impacting the retail space drove a steady volume of enablement campaigns throughout the year across various industries.
We engaged with the U S foods, a leading foodservice distributor to automate their supply chain.
Signing on more suppliers to transact Adi with U S foods during the initial weeks of engagement.
Then they have on their own over the last 10 years.
U S foods also leveraged the Sps network, the formed grocery sector partnerships, enabling it to deliver products directly to retailers distribution centers or stores.
We help Drake supermarket.
A leading grocery retailer in Australia to electronically connect with their suppliers through vendor on boarding and directly supplying its 40 stores.
The I provided drakes with the order and the inventory visibility they need to manage the diverse vendor community and keep shelves stocked.
Throughout the pandemic, we helped many retailers expand their multichannel sourcing strategy to meet increasing demand.
Costco for example relied on us to add approximately 200, new vendors to the network in a matter of weeks when the pandemic started in Sps was able to have new vendors up and running to fill costco's orders within hours.
We worked with Walgreens Onboarding, new critical suppliers of essential products, such as face masks with our full service in the same day Onboarding capabilities Sps was able to increase speed to market for a variety of critical products from new suppliers.
We engaged with pet retail brands of parent company to two of the top five pet stores in North America to create one consolidated the di system that can handle Adi transactions for pet value and pet supermarket.
Yeah.
As expansion and growth resulted in operational complexities sps's fulfillment helped to increase efficiency and accuracy for colborne.
Growing retail company, who runs more than 120 grocery convenience the liquor and other retail locations across the Midwest.
We also implemented order fulfillment on.
The automation for Lilly suites of chocolate producer to keep up with growing demand as the companys business more than doubled in two years.
In addition to helping our customers in their digital transformation. We also provide logistical support.
Consumers have embraced buy online pick up in store.
Curbside pickup and drop ship as preferred shopping methods, making order fulfillment more complex.
Currently over 600 retailers fulfill drop ship orders through the Sps network.
To support customers, who book shipments themselves.
Sps introduced shipping solutions like ship station and carrier service.
The brands with ship on behalf of retailers in the E Commerce retail stores Sps Commerce joined forces with our partner ship fusion, who has multiple fully managed and operated fulfillment centers across the U S and Canada.
Giving brands the best tools possible for building a successful E commerce operations.
Yeah.
To expand our leadership position in fulfillment system automation, we acquired data Masons in December of last year to offer unmatched trading partner on system expertise for customers using Microsoft solutions.
And we have numerous partnerships and the Microsoft community that will extend the Sps Commerce is leadership in this market.
Over the years, our acquisitions have solidified our leadership position across key market segments, including Oracle Sage SAP and.
And now Microsoft.
Okay.
As we enter 2021, Sps is well positioned to continue its critical role of driving efficiency on the retail supply chain.
We remain committed to supporting our customers through their digital transformation as we all work together to improve the E commerce experience for trading partners and consumers.
I would like to thank all of our employees for their dedication of the company our customers and our communities.
Before I turn the call over to Kim I would like to highlight the appointment of and some pesky ward to our board of directors.
And joined our board in November of last year she.
She brings more than 28 years of industry expertise with high growth brands and her leadership roles across retail companies of all sizes bring a unique perspective, and then and one that we are honored to have influencing the future of Sps.
With that I'll turn it over to Kim to discuss our financial results. Thanks, Archie we had a great fourth quarter revenue for the quarter was $83 $3 million of 15% increase over Q4 of last year and represented our eighth consecutive quarter of revenue growth.
Revenue this quarter from 15% year over year.

For the year revenue was $312 $6 million, a 12% increase in recurring revenue grew 13%.
The total number of recurring revenue customers increased 8% year over year to approximately 33150 and wallet share increased 6%.
As a reminder, in December 2020, we announced the acquisition of databases, which added approximately 500 customers to our network.
Given the timing of the transaction the acquisition added approximately $850000 in revenue to our fourth quarter and full year 2020 financial results.
We call the database on recurring revenue mix of approximately 50%.
Adjusted EBITDA grew 25% to $87 million, we ended the year with total cash and investments of $190 million.
Now turning to guidance for the first quarter of 2021, we expect revenue to be in the range of $86 8 million the $87 $8 million.
For the full year, we expect revenue to be in the range of 363 million to $366 million, representing approximately 16% to 17% growth over 2020 for.
For the first quarter of 2021, we expect adjusted EBITDA to be in the range of $23 3 million to $24 million for the full year, we expect adjusted EBITDA to be in the range of 100 million to $102 million, representing 15% of 17% growth over 2020.
For Q1, 2021, we expect fully diluted earnings per share to be in the range of 18 to 19.
Fully diluted weighted average shares outstanding of approximately 37 million shares.
We expect non-GAAP diluted earnings per share to be in the range of 36 to 37 cents.
With stock based compensation of expense of approximately $7 million depreciation expense of approximately 4 million and amortization expense of approximately $2 $7 million.

We expect depreciation expense of approximately $16 million.
And we expect amortization expense for the year to be approximately $10 $5 million.
For the year on you should model approximately 30% effective tax rate calculated on GAAP pretax net earnings.
In summary, the Sps Commerce delivered strong fourth quarter and full year 2020 results with retail dynamics accelerating the shift to E commerce and driving increased demand for <unk>. We are excited about our growth opportunities across a multibillion dollar Tam while we continued to deliver strong operating leverage targeting of long.
Term adjusted EBITDA margin of 35% with that I'd like to open the call to questions.
Thank you as a reminder to ask the question. Please press star followed by the number one on the telephone keypad.
All of your question. Please press the pound key.
Well pause for just a moment to compile the Q&A roster.
Our first question comes from Matt Pfau from William Blair. Please go ahead. Your line is open.
Hey, Thanks for taking my questions guys and congrats on the great results.
Just wanted to ask on the the analytics product I mean, I guess, we can sort of back into the growth growth rate based on your commentary around the the fulfillment product, but it seems like that still hasn't recovered.
Recovered yet.
When do you anticipate that the happen in I guess in terms of the investment and an update in.
Supply chain technology at retailers and suppliers windows analytics get a higher up on that priority list.
Yeah, Thanks, Matt the.
What we've seen is it is of discretionary spend.
Daily value of discretionary spend but unlike fulfillment, where if you're going to do business with the retailers you have no choice, but to use it that's the way you receive your purchase orders, we're seeing some daylight I think it's when.
The suppliers in particular have confidence.
And their level of spend that they have is the biggest the biggest the criteria right now I think there is a growing confidence.
Not feeling completely out of the woods, but again still seeing.
Phenomenal value when people are using it and continue to have.
On the confidence in the long term vision for analytics, but I think it's really around.
When people have complete confidence went through the pandemic.
Got it and does increase and drop shipping or E commerce as the percentage of retail.
<unk> that product one way or the other.
It really doesn't it's it's a higher value.
In the stores, but it is of high value inventory and some of the visibility.
So the shift is not going to make it negative its just a matter of priorities and I would say the fulfillment and drop ship and the other things we talked about them in the fulfillment product have been a higher priority right. Now is retail is made of pretty drastic shift in the last 12 months of of what Theyre doing and how they're doing it.
Great. Thanks, guys appreciate it.
Your next question comes from Jason <unk> from Keybanc Capital. Please go ahead. Your line is open.
Hi, this is actually on for Jason Thanks for taking my questions.
The first one of the habits can you just talk about some of your customers that were in verticals that were more challenge such as luxury goods and apparel have you seen any sort of improvement in terms of customer engagement and the willingness to spend towards the end of the quarter and what are your expectations of these verticals in 'twenty and 'twenty one.
Yeah. As you mentioned there are some industries that have been hurt and we're not seeing yet of recovery.
Just to state the obvious if you're.
Selling high end clothing, there's not a lot of events people are going to there's not a lot of.
I'm not putting on a suite very often anymore.
So those those those continue to be hurting and I think they are more on the hunker down mode. At this time I think theres. Other other other verticals that started out very weak and then they they completely turned around and the example is golf wear in April of last year. There was courses were closed.
They just came off.
The busiest summer ever so I think there's been shifts.
Vertical by vertical, but I think some of the high end luxury it's been very slow.
Great. That's helpful. Archie and then just one quick one on churn any change.
During the quarter that's worth mentioning.
And what are your expectations of closures on retail bankruptcies.
The new guidance for 'twenty 'twenty one thank you.
Sure Devin the Chi.
Churn.
The stayed consistent its roughly 13% on on annual basis, we did not see an uptick or an increase in bankruptcies in Q4.
Still to be determined in 2021, if there will be on increase in bankruptcies or not.
Your next question comes from Scott Berg from Needham. Please go ahead. Your line is open.
Okay.
Hi, Archie and Kim Congrats on the great quarter and thanks for taking the questions.
I guess, we'll start off with the first of all thanks for some of the additional disclosures around some of the attraction of the business this year the.
27% increase in net new customers I think is an interesting data point.
I guess as you guys look at that data point were there any differences in the types of customers you are able to attract.
Over the last 910 months of the pandemic versus the business the over the last couple of three years before that.
Yeah.
Yes, I think theres a number of things one I do think we had a lot of success in the community enablement campaigns and that was that was a bright spot.
Thank overall of those Scott one thing we've reflected back on 2020 with drop ship that was clearly a.
A tailwind for us in 2020, but we actually when we look at what's happened to us as a business for 2020.
It's because of the foundation that we've laid over the last three or four years.
We've talked in the past about on our sales restructuring and changes in 17, and 18, which take time to take.
Take hold in the really gained momentum a few years back we announced a new fulfillment product.
That is clearly far and away of the best in the industry and I think Thats, followed with new go to market strategies of 19, I think really took hold we starting to see some really great success in digital marketing, where we've grown that our digital marketing lead generation to what is now a meaningful part of our business and I think that with the different.
Things of that customer success have done.
On to become more customer centric and help customers optimize.
The usage of the Sps product is really what is driving the fulfillment product in 2020 and not the pandemic. Obviously there was some tailwind from the pandemic, but really excited about the investments we've made over the last three or four years.
Sure.
Super helpful. So I guess, a kind of a continuation of that.
The strong changes that were well positioned to benefit from the last nine months.
10 months and take any pandemic impact out of it how do you view pipelines kind of going forward in your opportunity is do you have the same type of opportunity do you think that you've seen over the last 10 or 10 or 11 months with how you set that up or is there any maybe nuanced.
Changes within that.
I think I think in general overall the.
It's set up extremely well.
The only the only big question is as we come out of it I think dropship will continue to be important.
We will continue to grow but I don't think were going to have unprecedented levels of growth as we did this year going forward, but I think what the highlights of what 2020 really highlighted is the Sps clearly plays in.
The brick and mortar the ecommerce and omni channel space.
And we're going to be there for the customer. However, however, and wherever they go so our business might shift back some.
From an overall standpoint, we're a little bit indifferent.
And we're a little bit unique in the industry that we serve the entire picture and I think thats, becoming a huge competitive advantage.
Excellent if I sneak one more on here Kim I don't think I heard you give the organic.
End of <unk> number in the quarter.
Yes.
Yeah, they're the database on the acquisition happened in just it was literally like two weeks.
And in Q4, so theres very nominal impact as it relates to the ARPA of the larger ones the customer of cell.
Data maintenance of added approximately 500 customers and so you see that reflected in the Q4 as well as full year customer count of 33150.
Six one I will jump back in the queue of congrats I guess.
Your next question comes from Joe <unk> from Baird. Please go ahead. Your line is open.
Great Hi, everyone.
I'm wondering when you think about all of the different lead Gen mechanisms you have at your disposal al can you, maybe characterize which could be I guess more incrementally important in 2021, So I would imagine all of our contributing but is there any of that may be has the potential to drive an outsized kind of.
Could you share and for your growth in 2021.
Yes, I think.
It's a hard question on the fact that I think there's things that are becoming increasingly more important.
The the.
Retail enablement campaigns are on.
Clearly, our most important net new business.
The driver, but marketing and channel marketing has grown extremely well on channel continues to be extremely important and will become even more important with with the database on acquisitions. So on a relative standpoint, I think the I hate to say it but it's all all three are important.
To us the long term viability of the business is always adding net new customers.
And then a meaningful part of our sales in any given year on.
Our.
Continued growth within our customer base, but that's all that's all predicated.
Predicated on continuing to add new customers, which we did an excellent job of that in 2020.
That's helpful Archie.
Just just on I suppose the channel piece, specifically and I know one of the drivers of the database and the acquisition was the exposure to Microsoft, but yes. As you go ERP by ERP cloud migrations are happening with more regularity or at least you know all of the ERP vendors our advocate.
That does happens what's the right timeline to consider a ERP cloud migration happens.
In the next quarter or two do you tend to see the related decisions on thinking up order automation in a SaaS delivery mode to match. The ERP does that come with some lag or is there any way to think about potential benefits accruing to Sps.
Yes, there is a slight lag well there's two ways. We're part of an ERP sales there are times when we're just bundled right at the at the front end.
The.
That the happens and then Theres other times, where they make the ERP decision.
The implementation for Sps is not as long as the ERP. So once the kick that off.
Then they bring in Sps commerce, what's what's really exciting where we are now as of businesses. There is oftentimes where there's.
234, erp's or different channel partners that are all buying for our suppliers' business.
And we're in three or four beds.
So I think but typically we will be more often than not a slight laggard in that and it's a natural if you're going to if you're going to move from a.
Promise space legacy ERP software system to cloud based you are going to move to a cloud based SaaS for your <unk> as well and obviously, we are well positioned for that and Thats. One of the things. We're really excited about with the date of Maisons is I think it's going to be really.
We will not have to do the heavy lifting of moving them.
We believe we will will trail behind Microsoft who is doing an excellent job of moving customers to the cloud.
Okay. That's helpful. Thank you very much.
Your next question comes from Tom Roderick from Stifel. Please go ahead. Your line is open.
Great Hi, Kim Hi, Archie happy New year, Thanks for taking my questions.
Archie I'm going to go back to the vertical.
On the vertical question earlier I mean, there was a question around some of the luxury goods on the high end stuff and things that we're we think I'm going to ask you to spend that one around a little bit and and perhaps highlight didn't the changing nature of the supply chains and how certain verticals you might've seen benefits from I couldn't help but notice of number of examples this quarter.
Last quarter on on foods, and grocery and convenience maybe you can talk a little bit about the dynamic of what's happening with where goods are coming from other getting hung up and then how they are ultimately getting to the consumer that might be driving the enablement campaigns additive products like curbside pick up things like that just the way customers.
It might be changing the role with you on the way that they lean on yet.
Yes, I think one of the things we saw in 2020.
He is suppliers.
On the suppliers in some verticals just didn't have inventory to be able to supply their retailers and therefore retailers really needed to be thoughtful and add new suppliers as alternatives and that's where we were really well set up with our existing especially with our existing partners like of Costco like of lob laws like of Walgreens, where we can onboard suppliers extreme.
Quickly on.
Obviously, if you don't have a partner like Sps Commerce, you can add suppliers, but then the product is going to be.
Youre going on you're going to end up E mailing out of purchase order theres not going to be of barcode label on the package because you havent enabled the Adi.
And your whole distribution center is going to get more efficient at a time when it's already on their stress. So we did see that book.
Pocket, where.
There were retailers looking for alternative sources.
The or alternative sources that was particularly.
In the Q2 period, probably not as much in the Q4 period, I mean that still happens.
But that was really highlighted to our customers there.
Grocery I think we've always had a decent practice in grocery, but I think again one of the things Thats happened.
In some of the reorganization of the Dan just tested with the sales organization was really aligned people of the different territories and I put different focus on on things and I think I think some of those well not some of those they are definitely those restructurings on the.
And whatnot are really starting to pay dividends and efficiency.
And our focus so I think that's one of the things thats happened as well.
Yes, that's true.
Really helpful and canton.
On the Crazy thing happened in the middle of the pandemic you guys you guys grew.
Grew faster than maybe you would've expected. So now sitting here a year later, how do you think about the sales capacity you need the support the go to market motion as you start to look at some of the acceleration potential in and the demand out there with the pipeline being what it is.
Yes, I think as we sit today, we have we have invested in the sales organization over the last few quarters.
So we feel really good about the sales capacity of.
The sales organization going into 2021.
Mainly because of some hiring we did in the back half of 2020, and I think that one of the things that the sales organization is very very good at is promoting from within which creates opportunities for people and then also training. So that we can get people up and running especially when they're moving from a more junior roll to a more.
Our senior role within the organization they already know the Sps Commerce broke so.
So that organization is.
Really really well managed from that standpoint, but feel really good about the.
Sales capacity as we sit today.
Great. Thank you guys I'll jump back in the queue congratulations thank.
Thank you.
Your next question comes from Mark Chapelle from Benchmark. Please go ahead. Your line is open.
Hi, Thank you for taking my question and nice job on the quarter and year. So first.
First question of you Charlie just building on an earlier question. If I recall correctly did of Maisons had a relatively high percentage of on premise revenue has been their mix and now that you've had a month or two to get a better handle on their business. I was wondering if you can just comment a little bit on how long you think it'll take two.
Migrate the bulk of that on premise base too to your product and recurring subscriptions.
Yeah, I think as we look at the data Maisons business first off.
Every day I look at of the business gets better and better.
Primarily because the people at the database since I think the strength of that team we're extremely impressed with.
But I think when we look at the transformation from on per annum to a SaaS model, where they are really utilizing our retail network.
We're gonna trail, Microsoft So in other words, when a Microsoft customer most of the premise.
<unk> cloud based that's going to be the that's going to be the transformation point as opposed to us pounding on the customer trying to convince them and sell them to do that I think that's going to happen over a period of years.
But I think there'll be Microsoft has a history of doing extremely great job at this I mean, all of US I think for the most part had on Prem email five years ago on I don't think anybody has on Prem email anymore. So you look at what Microsoft has done as a business and this is a focus area for them. So.
I think it's we're playing a follow on.
Microsoft role here, which is of good spot to be.
Okay. Great. Thanks, that's helpful. And then one follow on question and again building on an earlier question here.
The potential for retail or bankruptcies was something that was a real concern for the company throughout the last year.
And just based on what you saw in the quarter I mean is that concern of abated somewhat.
The real.
So we did not see an increase in bankruptcies and keep our and do keep in mind that in Q4, obviously was the holiday season as well so.
So we don't think we're necessarily out of the ones of that yet.
Pleased that we didn't see that in Q4.
Still.
To be determined as it relates to 2021, if the if we see an increase from bankruptcies or not.
Great. Thank you.
Your next question comes from Jeff Van <unk> from Craig Hallum Capital. Please go ahead. Your line is open.
Great. Thanks, guys. This is rudy on for Jeff.
Archie I was curious you know I know, it's been about two months now on day to Maisons.
Just curious what the progress has been thus far than really anything that you guys have learned or discovered that maybe you didn't know going into that deal.
Couple of realized so far.
You know because we competed against day to Maisons, because we partnered with day to Maisons.
Because we knew of the people I mean, some of the some of the relationships go back.
Literally 10 years.
The war on a lot of surprises I will tell you the only the only surprise, which I mentioned earlier I think this is an extremely talented team.
The debt, we picked up and so really excited about about that that would be the only piece of that myself personally of.
I've seen the team on what they can do and I think I think it's been.
Culturally a good fit I think.
The I know the Sps commerce employees have been thrilled with.
With the acquisition the sales force was extremely excited about the acquisition and I think the databases.
Oaks have embraced it and feel really good about everything that's going on there.
Great. That's helpful. And then I guess with respect to sort of as most you know the the 'twenty 'twenty cohort of customers that you guys brought on.
Obviously, a very very strong year from retailers in a very dynamic environment.
You know with their suppliers, but I'm curious just as you compare it to call. It the cohorts over the last couple of years, just what kind of changes have you seen with respect of verticals. The solutions you might be displacing the number of connections that they have just curious whats different in sort of that 2020 cohort versus years past.
I think overall, it's generally the same I think we've had more.
Customers taken from competitors I think when we look at our new business. This year, there was a slightly higher percentage from net.
Net new logos, which I think of us.
As a positive as I think the grocery was the grocery was strong E. Commerce is extremely strong but those are things that follow the reach of it if you follow the retail relative to retail.
I think our position in E commerce.
Probably a little bit over weighted compared to the industry, but a lot of these trends we do follow the industry.
<unk> slightly stronger on the E Com I think one of the things with the E Commerce.
People are realizing suppliers and retailers that it's not on E. Comm game, it's not of brick and mortar game, it's not an omni channel game you got to play all of the games.
And that's that feeds right into our hands.
Got it very helpful I'll jump back in the queue. Thanks.
Your next question comes from Pat Walraven from JMP Securities. Please go ahead. Your line is open.
Hi, This is Martin on the Pat.
Pat mentioned I'm thinking of my question I'm, just wondering could you give us an update on the cash.
The opportunity for more.
And how should we think of that.
As a percentage revenue you're already there.
And that kind of momentum.
Net.
Yeah.
You're cutting out a little bit was the question around the international opportunity.
Okay, Yeah, when we see the international opportunity obviously.
Ill.
When we think about it we think about it in different different areas, we think of North America as as a as one so just I'm not going to discuss Canada. When we look at the different international opportunities, Australia did well, we were a little higher in clothing and fashion there than we are.
In the U S. So I would say it underperformed the U S, but it had a strong year.
She on and it's.
We got some traction in obviously grocery and some others. So I think that bodes really well for that.
Asia continues to be part of really the North American supply chain, we continue to see reasonable progress there even with the trade war on everything else that didn't seem to have.
A meaningful impact plus or minus and then Europe, we primarily focused on Europe on analytics and as we've seen the analytics product.
Slowed down.
So that area of that from a geography was weaker and that will fall back with analytics remember in 2019 exiting 2019 coming into 2020, we were extremely bullish on analytics in particular in Europe coming off of small base, but it had super strong growth. So that was a that was a week.
The area.
Following the analytics.
That's very helpful. Thank you so much.
As a reminder, if you'd like to ask the question. Please press star followed by the number one on your telephone keypad.
Your next question comes from the whole taxi from North.
The capital markets. Please go ahead your line is open.
Thinks and.
Congratulations on the really strong finish the calendar 'twenty, even excluding debt of Maisons.
So excluding the out of Nathans, I think youre guiding to about 11% year of career growth for calendar 'twenty one.
The versus exiting calendar 'twenty at about 14% screened out of the Maisons. So what's built into the expectation of diesel.
The rating growth here.
So what are the 'twenty 'twenty one guidance incorporates as the combined company. So obviously databases is included in there as well.
It takes into account what we've seen in 2020, so we certainly do have some strong.
The momentum that we saw on fulfillment.
It does take into account the fact that there still is some uncertainty as it relates to bankruptcies and we've talked a little bit about that on this on this call on debt Thats still to be determined if we're going to see an uptick there or not and it also takes into account the comment that Archie had made that we expect drop ship to remains strong, but not necessarily at that same level.
That's out of that increase that we saw in 2020, so as it relates to E. Commerce, we expect E commerce will be a higher percentage of business than it was pre pandemic.
But some of the increase that occurred in 2020 that level of our piece of that increase we don't expect to.
At that level.
Okay, Great. That's helpful and then do.
Do you mind, the giving some color as far as the disaggregation between customer growth versus the <unk> per customer growth. The that's built into the 11% growth for calendar 'twenty, one excluding debt it makes sense.
Sure well, we guide to total GAAP revenue and then each quarter when we announced the results. We then provide the level of how much of the customer growth on how much of that average recurring revenue per recurring revenue customer.
On a similar to prior years, we do expect the nice healthy mix of the bolus.
To drive the our overall recurring revenue growth.
Okay and then.
Mentioned, the 500 customers from debt it makes sense, but I think when you did the acquisition you said that they were gonna be bringing 450. So is it correct to say the data Maisons added 50 customers on the last two weeks of the quarter and if so.
Did that surprise you.
No.
The acquisition brought the same amount the the number was around 500.
Okay alright, thank you.
We have no further questions just spoke of.
Today's conference call. Thank you for your participation you may now disconnect.
