Katie Patrick: Thanks, Colin. Good morning, everyone. Thank you all for joining us today. Can I just say what an incredible year ATCO had in 2025. In the face of so much geopolitical and economic uncertainty, we achieved 8% year-over-year earnings growth, with all of our segments delivering growth. I know I've spoken about this before, but I want to take a moment and discuss ATCO's investment portfolio and the strategy we are pursuing that has led to our continued success. Our globally diversified portfolio focuses on the world's most urgent challenges in housing, defense, energy, and our complementary investments that align with our long-term growth plans. Looking at the global landscape today, I think we are incredibly well-positioned to capitalize on core macroeconomic trends. Specifically, we are seeing record demand for our modular housing capabilities, which Adam will touch on later.

Katie Patrick: In defense, we remain leaders serving communities in the North and supporting Canada's defense sector. We are ready to maximize this positive momentum in 2026. Within energy, ATCO's majority ownership of Canadian Utilities provides exposure to both regulated and non-regulated energy assets. Lastly, on investments, we maintain a 40% ownership of Neltume Ports, along with our retail energy business and other complementary investments tied to the essential services space. Combined, these business segments drive growth for our total portfolio, generating stable earnings and dividends for our shareowners. Core to ATCO's portfolio strategy is our focus on a long-term, sustainable dividend and continuing our status as a dividend queen. We think about our dividend resiliency by bifurcating our portfolio to balance yield and long-term growth.

Katie Patrick: To that end, we focus on foundational investments, which you see at the bottom of the triangle on the slide, which drive stable and reliable cash flow and earnings for the entire portfolio. Value investments in the middle, which provide a balance between cash yield and growth. They will have some cyclicality, but generally have the ability to drive better returns. At the top, we have growth investments. These businesses have less ability to contribute to the current dividend due to their need for growth capital, but they provide an opportunity to deliver higher than utility growth while delivering diversification for the overall portfolio. We recently announced another year of increases to our dividend, marking our 33rd year of consecutive dividend increases. Now, moving to our consolidated results for 2025, it's evident that our portfolio strategy that I just spoke to is working.

As we look ahead, our teams remain focused on executing the strong pipeline of opportunities across our operating geographies. In Q2 2026, we will be opening our expanded manufacturing facility in Grimsby, Ontario, doubling our production capacity to support all three markets: industrial, commercial, and residential. In Canada, the latest federal budget includes over CAD 115 billion of planned federal infrastructure investment and over CAD 80 billion of planned defense spending over the next five years, an opportunity for ATCO Structures to capitalize on.

Adam Beattie: Further, these funding commitments align with the broader ATCO portfolio, which, as Katie mentioned, focuses on the essential service space, including housing, defense, and energy. We also see potential with the Trade Diversification Corridors Fund, as large infrastructure build-outs often require temporary and permanent housing accommodations for employees during the construction phase and when facilities become operational. Not to mention the government's priority list of projects of national importance, as seen on this slide, which align with our operating capabilities across the structures and logistics portfolios. Beyond this, there continues to be a significant focus on building additional homes that are not only affordable, but also of high quality and with an expedited delivery objective. As I previously spoke to, our areas of expertise and geographic footprint have us well positioned for these future opportunities.

Adam Beattie: We have evolved our operations through strategic, organic, and inorganic initiatives, diversifying our market-leading position in permanent modular construction for both commercial and residential modular solutions, while continuing to grow and deliver results through our industrial business lines. As modular products gain wider acceptance as a solution to the housing supply shortage, we expect to generate a larger portion of our earnings growth from our permanent modular construction offerings. Although this may change the margin profile of our business, we expect that growth within our permanent modular offerings will drive sustainable earnings for the portfolio going forward. Outside of Canada, we are advantageously positioned to capture new opportunities in other markets, including Australia, Chile, Mexico, and the United States. In 2025, we added a new manufacturing location in Brisbane, Queensland, which allowed us to increase our manufacturing capacity in the region, including continued fleet expansion.

Speaker #9: Moving modular, delivered by ATCO, is a growing and necessary alternative and an accelerator to mainstream construction. With that, I'd like to thank the amazing people within ATCO Structures and Logistics.

Adam Beattie: Moving modular, delivered by ATCO, as a growing and necessary alternative and an accelerator to mainstream construction. With that, I'd like to thank the amazing people within ATCO Structures & Logistics. Their dedication and industry-leading capabilities have been key to our success, and I'll now pass the call back over to Katie.

Speaker #9: Their dedication and industry-leading capabilities have been key to our success. And I'll now pass the call back over to Katie.

Speaker #1: Thank you, Adam. As evidenced in our results this past year, our diversified portfolio of investments continues to deliver a growing earnings profile. With Adam highlighting the growth within structures and its competitive advantages compared to peers, we continue to believe ATCO structures is undervalued by more than $2 billion in the market.

Katie Patrick: Thank you, Adam. As evidenced in our results this past year, our diversified portfolio of investments continues to deliver a growing earnings profile. With Adam highlighting the growth within ATCO Structures and its competitive advantages compared to peers. We continue to believe that the ATCO Structures is undervalued at more than $2 billion.

Operator: I'm so sorry to interrupt again. I'm so sorry. The line just started to corrupt again. I'm going to try to dial out to you so that we can expedite it again. One moment.

Speaker #2: I'm so sorry to interrupt again. I'm so sorry. The line just started to corrupt again. I'm going to try to dial out to you so that we can expedite it again.

Speaker #2: One moment.

Speaker #3: Sorry, you're very hard to hear. Are you on dial-in again?

Katie Patrick: You're very hard to hear. Do you want us to dial in again?

Speaker #2: I'm going to disconnect you, and if you want to try to dial back in, that would be better in case I can't reach you.

Operator: I'm gonna disconnect you, and, if you want to try to dial back in, that would be better in case I can't reach you. Okay, the presenters have rejoined.

Speaker #2: Okay. The presenters have rejoined.

Speaker #1: Thanks. Sorry, everybody. I'm just going to jump off script and highlight my last point, which is that we still think that ATCO Structures has a lot of value yet to come in the market, and you can see on the slide that there could be potentially up to $2 billion of value that we are still missing from that.

Katie Patrick: Thanks. Sorry, everybody. I'm just gonna jump off script and highlight my last point, which is that we still think that ATCO Structures has a lot of value yet to come in the market, and you can see on the slide that, you know, there could be potentially up to CAD 2 billion of value, that we are still missing from that. I think we'll end it there and just turn it over to questions, and hopefully our line will stay connected.

Speaker #1: So I think we'll end it there and just turn it over to questions and hopefully our line will stay

Speaker #4: Yeah. Thank you, Katie. Thank you, Adam.

Colin Jackson: Yeah. Thank you. Thank you, Katie. Adam. Sorry, go ahead, Gaylene.

Speaker #5: And go ahead, Jaylene.

Speaker #2: I was just going to offer our apologies as well. Not sure what the source of the issue was, and I'm sorry to interrupt you, Colin.

Operator: I was just gonna offer our apologies as well. Not sure what the source of the issue was. I'm sorry to interrupt you, Colin. Please proceed.

Please go ahead.

Speaker #2: To withdraw your question, please press star then two. Our first question is from John Mold with TD Colin. Please go ahead.

John Mould: Hi, good morning. Maybe just going back to the broader housing opportunity for Structures. You highlighted CAD 100 billion in federal housing initiatives. Now, how quickly are you hoping to see some of that headline investment, you know, flow into a step up in demand for your housing product, and then a corresponding, you know, increase in your earnings coming from that tailwind, more specifically?

Speaker #5: Hi. Good morning. Maybe just going back to the broader housing opportunity for Structures, you've highlighted the $100 billion of federal housing initiatives. How quickly are you hoping to see some of that headline investment flow into a step-up in demand for your housing product, and then, of course, a corresponding increase in your earnings coming from that tailwind more specifically?

Speaker #4: Yeah, thank you, John. Look, certainly, obviously, a large number around the federal funding commitment to housing. And on top of that is, obviously, an increased private sector momentum.

Adam Beattie: Yeah. Thank you, John. Look, it's certainly obviously a large number around the federal funding commitment to housing, and on top of that is obviously an increased private sector momentum towards looking at modular as a housing and an accelerated or alternative housing solution. We estimate that the modular housing market within Canada specifically, is around 4% to 6% of the total market, and we feel that the percentage of overall modular to service that market will increase as it becomes a more accepted and prioritized solution. We know the housing statistics are around 3.5 million houses per annum over the next 5 years. Realistically, we think it will progressively, these projects have a longer cycle.

Speaker #4: Towards looking at modular as a housing and accelerator or alternative housing solution. So we estimate that the modular housing market within Canada specifically is around 4 to 6 percent of the total market.

Adam Beattie: We estimate that the modular housing market within Canada specifically, is around 4% to 6% of the total market, and we feel that the percentage of overall modular to service that market will increase as it becomes a more accepted and prioritized solution. We know the housing statistics are around 3.5 million houses per annum over the next 5 years. Realistically, we think it will progressively, these projects have a longer cycle.

Speaker #4: And we feel that the percentage of overall modular to service that market will increase, as it becomes a more accepted and prioritized solution. And we know the housing statistics are around 3.5 million houses per annum over the next five years.

Speaker #4: So, realistically, we think these projects will have a progressively longer cycle. So we realistically think that by the middle of this year, we'll see a lot more momentum in terms of housing prioritization or modular projects being released.

Adam Beattie: We realistically think by the middle of this year, we'll see a lot more momentum in terms of housing prioritization on modular projects being released. We've already seen the federal government release a number of RFPs around housing solutions that specifically reference modular modern methods of construction, of which modular is a key component on. We think certainly this year we'll start seeing momentum gain and likely that will increase into the future years.

Speaker #4: We've already seen the federal government release a number of RFPs around housing solutions that specifically reference modular modern methods of construction of which modular is a key component on.

Speaker #4: So, we think certainly this year we'll start seeing momentum gain, and likely that will increase into the future years.

Speaker #5: Okay. Thanks for that. And then maybe turning to Frontech, I appreciate that it's integrated into the broader and structures and logistics business, but it did slip into negative earnings again in Q4 25.

John Mould: Okay, thanks for that. Maybe turning to Frontec, I appreciate that it's integrated into the broader and Structures & Logistics business, but it did slip into negative earnings again in Q4 2025. How should we think about the earnings power of the Frontec segment going forward?

Speaker #5: How should we think about the earnings power of the Frontex segment going forward?

Speaker #1: Yeah, I mean, like John, I think it's Frontech, had some challenge contracts that we have now resolved over the past year and a half.

Katie Patrick: Yeah, I mean, thanks, John. I think it's, you know, Frontec, you know, had some challenge contracts that we have now resolved over the past year and a half. I think generally speaking, there's a bit of seasonality within the Frontec businesses, particularly around the camps. You'll see lower occupancy level in the camps during that Q4 often. There was nothing unexpected about the results in the Q4. Generally speaking, you know, they have stabilized their earnings profile on a yearly basis. I think, you know, we are very positive around the momentum behind some of the defense spending that we're seeing, and they could definitely benefit from some of that in their forward outlook.

Speaker #1: So I think generally speaking, there's a bit of seasonality within the Frontex businesses. Particularly around the camps. So you'll see lower occupancy level in the camps during that fourth quarter often.

Speaker #1: So there was nothing unexpected about the results in the fourth quarter. But, generally speaking, they have stabilized their earnings profile on a yearly basis.

Katie Patrick: Generally speaking, you know, they have stabilized their earnings profile on a yearly basis. I think, you know, we are very positive around the momentum behind some of the defense spending that we're seeing, and they could definitely benefit from some of that in their forward outlook.

Speaker #1: And I think we are very positive around the momentum behind some of the defense spending. That we're seeing. And so they could definitely benefit from some of that in their forward outlook.

Speaker #5: Okay, thanks for that. I'll get back in the queue.

Colin Jackson: Okay, thanks for that. I'll get back in the queue.

John Mould: Okay, thanks for that. I'll get back in the queue.

Speaker #2: The next question is from Mark Jarvey with CIBC Capital Markets. Please go ahead.

Operator: The next question is from Mark Jarvi with CIBC Capital Markets. Please go ahead.

Speaker #6: Yeah, thanks. Adam, I think in your comments, you were implying that modular might have slightly lower margins—maybe I misunderstood that. But can you clarify that?

Mark Jarvi: Yeah, thanks. Adam, I think in your comments, you were implying that modular might have slightly lower margins. maybe I misunderstood that, but you clarify that. Then was the message though, that with top line growth, even if the business mix was a little bit more lower margin in 2026, you'd still see positive earnings growth in Structures and Logistics?

Speaker #6: And then was the message though that with top line growth, even if the business mix was a little bit more lower margin, in 26, you'd still see positive earnings growth in structures and logistics?

Adam Beattie: yes. Simple answer. Hi, Mark.

Speaker #4: Yes. Simple answer. Hi, Mark. Yes. The margin is lighter on permanent modular construction. The cycle's slower, but yes, we still foresee growth across the year.

Adam Beattie: yes. Simple answer. Hi, Mark.

Mark Jarvi: Yeah.

Adam Beattie: Yes, the margin is lighter on permanent modular construction. The cycle's slower, but yes, we still foresee growth across the year.

Mark Jarvi: How does the margin compare versus where the business has been in the last several quarters? Then, I guess, top line growth, is there still the opportunity to drive double-digit top line growth in 26 and 27?

Speaker #6: How does the margin compare versus where the business has been in the last several quarters? And then, I guess, top-line growth—is there still the opportunity to drive double-digit top-line growth in '26 and '27?

Adam Beattie: Certainly the opportunity's there. I think if I look at relative to starting of last year, I think the momentum behind core industries or markets that we are well positioned in show a lot of tailwinds behind what will roll out. Sometimes these federal funding plans take a little bit of a time to hit the road, but certainly the commitments that we're seeing and the, in my history in the industry, the notification and the specific call-out of modular in multiple jurisdictions across multiple market segments is very encouraging.

Speaker #4: Certainly, the opportunity's there. I think if I look at it relative to the start of last year, the momentum behind core industries or markets that we are well positioned in shows a lot of tailwinds behind what will roll out.

Speaker #4: So sometimes these federal funding plans take a little bit of time to hit the road. But certainly, the commitments that we're seeing, and in my history in the industry, the notification and the specific callout of jurisdictions across multiple market segments is very encouraging.

Speaker #6: And then just in terms of margin expectation for 2026, what might it be on a blended basis versus 2025?

Mark Jarvi: Just in terms of margin expectation for 2026, what might it be on a blended basis versus 2025?

Speaker #4: We don't provide guidance, but I think you can see our momentum that we've had over the last few years should give you some good indication there.

Adam Beattie: We don't provide guidance, but I think you can see our momentum that we've had over the last few years should give you some good indication there.

Speaker #6: Okay. Thanks.

Mark Jarvi: Okay, thanks.

Speaker #2: The next question is from Maurice Choi with RBC. Please go ahead.

Operator: The next question is from Maurice Choy with RBC. Please go ahead.

Speaker #5: Thanks, Ann. Good morning, everyone. I just wanted to touch on the global workforce housing business. The number of units there came down below 2,000 in Q4, versus about 2,400 over the last nine months in 2025, sort of the first nine months.

Maurice Choy: Thanks. Good morning, everyone. I just want to touch on the global workforce housing business. Number of units there came down below 2,000 in Q4 versus about 2,400 over the last nine months in 2025, sort of the first nine months. You mentioned that this reduction in the fleet is partly because some of these units are underutilized. Could you just elaborate a little bit more what drove you to that position? Take one step further, is there more to come? You know, you've obviously got a good cash flow generation here at XC. You've made that clear on your slide. Doesn't feel like this is a funding reason for why these decisions are being made.

Speaker #5: You mentioned that this reduction in fleet is partly because some of these units are underutilized. Could you just elaborate a little bit more what drove you to that position?

Maurice Choy: Could you just elaborate a little bit more what drove you to that position? Take one step further, is there more to come? You know, you've obviously got a good cash flow generation here at XC. You've made that clear on your slide. Doesn't feel like this is a funding reason for why these decisions are being made.

Speaker #5: And take one step further, is there more to come? You've obviously got a good cash flow generation here, XCU. You've made that clear on your slide.

Speaker #5: So it doesn't feel like this is a funding reason for why these dispositions are being made.

Speaker #4: Yeah, definitely. Not to hear from you, Maurice. If you look at the workforce housing market, it does—when you see that product move, it comes back in large chunks and goes out in large chunks.

Adam Beattie: Yeah, definitely. Nice to hear from you, Maurice. If you look at the workforce housing market, when you see that product move, it comes back in large chunks and goes out in large chunks. What we do is we strategically position the scale or the size of our fleets in response to those short-term cycle ebbs and flows. What I think you'll see moving into this year is that we're actually currently in the process of quite a big addition to our workforce housing fleet, because we see some quite good market sentiment around the opportunities that will particularly be coming forward in Canada, in probably the middle back half of this year, and also in Australia.

Speaker #4: So what we do is we strategically position the scale or the size of our fleets in response to those short-term cycle ebbs and flows.

Speaker #4: So what I think you'll see moving into this year is that we're actually currently in the process of quite a big addition to our workforce housing fleet because we see some quite good market sentiment around the opportunities that will particularly be coming forward in Canada, in probably the middle back half of this year, and also in Australia.

Speaker #4: So you'll probably see in 2026 a bit of a rebuild and reposition locationally of where that workforce housing asset is. And we're very good at just keeping responsive to the market in those situations as it moves.

Adam Beattie: You'll probably see in 2026 a bit of a rebuild and reposition locationally of where that workforce housing asset is, and we're very good at just keeping responsive to the market in those situations as it moves.

Speaker #5: Understood. And if I could just touch on an L2A ports, a little bit of a good quarter here. 10 million bucks, which really is solid versus the 4 to 6 million that we generally expect from the business.

Maurice Choy: Understood. If I could just, you know, touch on Neltume Ports, a little bit of a good quarter here, CAD 10 million, which really is solid versus the CAD 4 to 6 million that we generally expect from the business. Just wondering if the positive momentum you've seen in Q4 is, you know, a sustainable step change, or, you know, is there something to read from this Guatemala stake acquisition that you've acquired?

Speaker #5: Just wondering, if the positive momentum you've seen in Q4 is a sustainable step change or is there something to read from this Guatemala stake acquisition that you've acquired?

Speaker #1: Yeah. So thanks, Maurice. I think the one thing to point out in L2A is having a lot of positive momentum where we're making new investments.

Katie Patrick: Yeah. Thanks, Maurice. You know, I think the one thing to point out, Neltume Ports is having a lot of positive momentum. We're making new investments. You know, our Vancouver, Washington port is well underway. The smaller acquisition in Guatemala is positive news. I would just point out, you know, we're pretty explicit in our disclosure that in the quarter we did have CAD 4 million of non-recurring items. We undertook a salvage operation in Uruguay that had some beneficial earnings uptick for the quarter, but not necessarily something that will be repeatable on a quarter-on-quarter basis.

Speaker #1: Our Vancouver, Washington port is well underway, and the smaller acquisition in Guatemala is positive news. I would just point out we're pretty explicit in the disclosure that, in the quarter, we did have $4 million of non-recurring items.

Katie Patrick: We undertook a salvage operation in Uruguay that had some beneficial earnings uptick for the quarter, but not necessarily something that will be repeatable on a quarter-on-quarter basis.

Speaker #1: We undertook a salvage operation in Uruguay that had some beneficial earnings uptick for the quarter. But not necessarily something that will be repeatable on a quarter-on-quarter basis.

Speaker #5: Understood. And I guess just to wrap it all up, it sounds like, given your strong cash flow generation, a lot of your multi-year outlook in terms of cash deployment—is it fair to say that substantially all of that is going to go to S&L, or are you shoring it up for other opportunities?

Maurice Choy: Understood. I guess just to wrap it all up, it sounds like given your strong cash flow generation, a lot of your multi-year outlook in terms of cash deployment, is it fair to say that substantially all of that is going to go to SNL, or are we shoring it up for other opportunities?

Speaker #1: I mean, I think we will definitely look to deploy the capital to the best use that we see available at the time. Right now, as Adam spoke about, we have a lot of positive momentum in places that we could deploy capital in the Structures business.

Katie Patrick: I mean, I think we'll, we will definitely, we'll look to deploy the capital to the best use that we see available at the time. Right now, as Adam spoke about, we have a lot of positive momentum and places that we could deploy capital in the Structures business. Equally, there could be opportunities that come up in some of our complementary investments or through our Ports investments. We will, you know, make those decisions as we move forward. You know, as with historically, Structures and Logistics does take, you know, a decent amount of that capital, and that's great because they've given some great growth.

Speaker #1: But equally, there could be opportunities that come up in some of our complementary investments or through our ports investments. So we will make those decisions as we move forward.

Katie Patrick: We will, you know, make those decisions as we move forward. You know, as with historically, Structures and Logistics does take, you know, a decent amount of that capital, and that's great because they've given some great growth.

Speaker #1: But as with historically, structures and logistics does take a decent amount of that capital, and that's great because they've given some great growth.

Speaker #5: Understood. Thank you.

Maurice Choy: Understood. Thank you.

Speaker #2: The next question is from Ben Thum with BMO. Please go ahead.

Operator: The next question is from Ben Tham with BMO. Please go ahead.

Ben Tham: Thanks. Good morning. I wanted to go back to the housing angle and the module structure opportunity for you. Can you comment on directly the earnings trend in that area of growth? What percent of SNL earnings do you think it could make up the next 5 years? Maybe just very high level, the competitive dynamics of that segmented market.

Speaker #6: Thanks, Morgan. I wanted to go back to the housing angle and the modular structure opportunity for you. Can you comment on direction of the earnings trend in that area of growth?

Ben Pham: Thanks. Good morning. I wanted to go back to the housing angle and the module structure opportunity for you. Can you comment on directly the earnings trend in that area of growth? What percent of SNL earnings do you think it could make up the next 5 years? Maybe just very high level, the competitive dynamics of that segmented market.

Speaker #6: What percent of S&L earnings do you think it could make up the next five years? And then maybe just very high level to competitive dynamics of that segment of the market.

Speaker #4: Yeah, I won't give a breakdown in terms of the percentage there, Ben, for the future. But certainly, the competitive dynamics in the market—we think we're very well placed.

Adam Beattie: I won't give a breakdown in terms of the percentage there, Ben, for the future. Certainly the competitive dynamics in the market, we think we're very well placed. Well, we are the largest modular housing manufacturer within Canada. We've probably got the most active projects of any competitor in that field. We have the most diverse product offerings, and we have manufacturing now located in multiple provinces. Our ability to deliver housing solutions both across the full nation and across a diversity of product mix that service the housing demand is quite extensive. We feel that our footprint is very advantageous. We think our project delivery models are very strong, and we think it's a good basis for future growth.

Speaker #4: We're probably well, we are the largest modular housing manufacturer within Canada. We've probably got the most active project of projects of any competitor in that field.

Speaker #4: We have the most diverse product offerings, and we have manufacturing now located in multiple provinces. So, our ability to deliver housing solutions both across the full nation and across a diversity of product mix that service the housing demand is quite extensive.

Adam Beattie: Our ability to deliver housing solutions both across the full nation and across a diversity of product mix that service the housing demand is quite extensive. We feel that our footprint is very advantageous. We think our project delivery models are very strong, and we think it's a good basis for future growth.

Speaker #4: And so we feel that our footprint is very advantageous. We think our project delivery models are very strong, and we think it's a good basis for future growth—and not only that, but that's long-term future growth as well, as we see some of the housing commitments.

Adam Beattie: Not only, and that's long-term future growth as well as we see some of the housing commitments are a number of years look ahead in terms of how that'll be solutioned.

Speaker #4: So a number of years look ahead in terms of how that'll be solutioned.

Speaker #6: Okay. Got it. And maybe my follow-up to stay at the same topic. There's been articles around the Canadian forces in Canada needing a housing.

Ben Tham: Okay, got it. My follow-up to stay the same topic, there's been articles around the Canadian Forces in Canada needing in-housing. Is that just limited to the federal agency on that opportunity, or can ATCO participate some way through housing or maintenance services?

Ben Pham: Okay, got it. My follow-up to stay the same topic, there's been articles around the Canadian Forces in Canada needing in-housing. Is that just limited to the federal agency on that opportunity, or can ATCO participate some way through housing or maintenance services?

Speaker #6: Is that just limited to the federal agency on that opportunity, or is Connecticut participate some way through housing or maintenance services?

Speaker #4: That's a significant opportunity if you look at that. That's $3.7 billion of housing commitments. In their releases, they've specifically called out modern methods of construction or modular specifically.

Adam Beattie: That's, it's a significant opportunity. If you look at that's CAD 3.7 billion of housing commitments. In their releases, they've specifically called out modern methods of construction, modular specifically. We do think that's a significant opportunity for us, that announcement yesterday or the day before. That'll certainly be a target and something that we'll be looking at pursuing, and we think we've got a lot of potential to be a viable provider of those solutions. Modular will be, we believe, a core component of that solution, hopefully.

Speaker #4: So, we do think that that's a significant opportunity for us—that announcement yesterday or the day before. So, that'll certainly be a target, and something that we'll be looking at pursuing.

Speaker #4: And we think we've got a lot of potential to be a viable provider of those solutions. And modular will be we believe will be a core component of that solution.

Speaker #4: Hopefully.

Speaker #6: Okay. Understood. Thank you.

Ben Tham: Okay, understood. Thank you.

Ben Pham: Okay, understood. Thank you.

Speaker #2: This concludes the question and answer session. I'd like to turn the conference back over to Mr. Colin Jackson for any closing remarks.
