Erik Woodring: Thanks so much for taking my question, Nick, and congrats on the Mission 1 launch. I know for a few quarters you'd been teasing the new camera launches. Obviously big to get those out. I was just wondering, if we take a step back, I think you probably have the broadest lineup of cameras in GoPro history, ranging not just within the action camera market, ranging from the Hero all the way up to the Mission 1 Pro, and soon the Mission 1 Pro ILS. Just what do you think it takes to get sell-through back into positive territory now that you have all these product launches, and what would you say is kind of the biggest impediment to that at the moment? Then a quick follow-up, please. Thank you.

Nicholas Woodman: Thanks, Erik. I think awareness driving is critical. We do have the most compelling products that we've had in the history of the company. After developing and launching those comes the job of driving awareness. So we're in the process of doing that, and of course, the rave reviews help a ton. Most importantly is the success that our customers are having with our products and their endorsement through their own socially shared content. There's a very positive swell of support for GoPro and our products thanks to these new launches. There's a lot of love out there, and you need only go and read what owners are saying about their Mission cameras to see how excited they are about them. Of course, that's inspiring others to go out and buy them as well.

Nicholas Woodman: Thanks, Erik. I think awareness driving is critical. We do have the most compelling products that we've had in the history of the company. After developing and launching those comes the job of driving awareness. So we're in the process of doing that, and of course, the rave reviews help a ton.

Speaker #3: And, of course, that's inspiring others to go out and buy them as well. And there's a lot of anticipation for our interchangeable lens Mission One camera.

Nicholas Woodman: There's a lot of anticipation for our interchangeable-lens Mission One camera, the Mission One Pro ILS, that's coming out in September. That actually garnered as much, if not more, enthusiasm from everyone when we debuted the cameras as the Mission One and Mission One Pro camera did. The idea of having an interchangeable-lens GoPro has really sparked the imagination of creators and really hits a nerve with the more, or I should say, hits the mark with the more pro-minded users in our community. Importantly, has the potential to expand GoPro's share in the prosumer and pro market, attracting creators who maybe haven't considered using a GoPro before because we just didn't have the right camera for them.

Speaker #3: And importantly, has the potential to expand GoPro's share in the prosumer and pro market, attracting creators who maybe haven't considered using a GoPro before because we just didn't have the right camera for them, but now with an interchangeable lens system, we know that there's an enormous amount of enthusiasm amongst professional creators because of the added creative versatility and potential that an interchangeable lens camera provides.

Nicholas Woodman: But now with an interchangeable-lens system, we know that there's an enormous amount of enthusiasm amongst professional creators because of the added creative versatility and potential that an interchangeable-lens camera provides. In addition to all that, it's continuing to roll the products out globally. We still don't have full distribution. We still are getting our new cameras into retailers around the world. We have pretty good distribution, but not full representation. So that's also going to help as well. But things are looking good in terms of people's regard for the new line of GoPros and continued launches later this year.

Erik Woodring: Okay. I appreciate all that. Thank you, Nick. Then maybe as just a follow-up for Brian Tratt, I know last quarter, because you were doing some of the strategic review, you had withdrawn your forward-looking guidance.

Speaker #1: Thanks, guys.

Speaker #4: Yeah, thanks, Eric. I think, as you can imagine, we withdrew guidance as we're going through our strategic process, and for that reason, we really can't add extra color on top of our prepared remarks.

Brian Tratt: Yeah, thanks, Erik. I think as you can imagine, we withdrew guidance as we are going through our strategic process, and for that reason, we really cannot add extra color on top of our prepared remarks. So we will have to leave it there for this call.
