Speaker #2: Thank you, Operator, and good morning, everyone. Q2 was a significant quarter for Medifarm as we achieved positive net income for the first time since 2019, delivered our second consecutive quarter of positive adjusted EBITDA, our strongest since 2019, expanded gross margins, and maintained a strong balance sheet.

Greg Hunter: Thank you, operator, and good morning, everyone. Q2 was a significant quarter for MediPharm as we achieved positive net income for the first time since 2019, delivered our second consecutive quarter of positive adjusted EBITDA, our strongest since 2019, expanded gross margins, and maintained a strong balance sheet. We also announced positive phase II results from the LiBBY clinical trial, which met its primary endpoint with statistically significant improvement in agitation among patients with dementia, providing meaningful validation of our pharmaceutical platform. Turning first to the LiBBY clinical trial. Dementia affects an estimated 55 million people worldwide, and I expect many people listening today have had some personal experience with it through a parent, a grandparent, or someone close to them. The study is a US multi-center, phase II randomized double-blind placebo-controlled clinical trial evaluating MediPharm's proprietary cannabinoid formulation for the treatment of clinically significant agitation in patients with dementia.

Speaker #2: We also announced positive phase two results from the Libby Clinical Trial, which met its primary endpoint with statistically significant improvement in agitation among patients with dementia, providing meaningful validation of our pharmaceutical platform.

Speaker #2: Turning first to the Libby Clinical Trial. Dementia affects an estimated 55 million people worldwide, and I expect many people listening today have had some personal experience with it through a parent, a grandparent, or someone close to them.

Speaker #2: The study is a U.S. multi-center phase two randomized double-blind placebo-controlled clinical trial evaluating Medifarm's proprietary cannabinoid formulation for the treatment of clinically significant agitation in patients with dementia.

Speaker #2: The trial enrolled 120 participants who are eligible for or receiving hospice care and is among the first randomized placebo-controlled studies conducted in this patient population.

Greg Hunter: The trial enrolled 120 participants who are eligible for or receiving hospice care and is among the first randomized placebo-controlled studies conducted in this patient population. Agitation remains one of the most challenging symptoms associated with Alzheimer's disease and other forms of dementia, creating a significant burden for patients, caregivers, and healthcare providers, while safe and effective treatment options remain limited. In July, positive results from the LiBBY trial were presented at the Alzheimer's Association International Conference. The study met its primary endpoint and all key secondary endpoints, demonstrating statistically significant improvement in agitation in patients with dementia, with benefits observed as early as 2 weeks and sustained throughout the 12-week treatment period. Nearly 9 out of 10 treated patients demonstrated overall clinical improvement by week 12. Importantly, the study evaluated MediPharm's proprietary cannabinoid formulation, which was developed and supplied exclusively by MediPharm.

Speaker #2: Medifarm has filed 2 U.S. provisional patent applications covering the formulation and related therapeutic applications. The study was funded by the National Institute on Aging, part of the National Institute of Health and the Alzheimer's Association.

Greg Hunter: MediPharm has filed two US provisional patent applications covering the formulation and related therapeutic applications. The study was funded by the National Institute on Aging, part of the National Institutes of Health and the Alzheimer's Association. It was conducted through the NIH-funded Alzheimer's Clinical Trials Consortium and coordinated by the University of Southern California's USC Epstein Family Alzheimer's Therapeutic Research Institute, the University of Southern California, and Georgetown University. For patients living with dementia, their families, and caregivers, these findings advance clinical research in an area of urgent unmet need. We are grateful to the funding organizations, investigators, study teams, participants, and caregivers who made this work possible and privileged to see our proprietary formulation evaluated by these research institutions.

Speaker #2: While additional clinical development and regulatory work remain, we believe these results represent the strongest clinical validation of Medifarm's pharmaceutical platform to date, and demonstrate our ability to develop proprietary formulations that can be evaluated in rigorous clinical settings.

Greg Hunter: While additional clinical development and regulatory work remain, we believe these results represent the strongest clinical validation of MediPharm's pharmaceutical platform to date and demonstrate our ability to develop proprietary formulations that can be evaluated in rigorous clinical settings. For shareholders, LiBBY reinforces something we have spoken about for many years, MediPharm's value extends beyond today's commercial cannabis markets. We have built a platform capable of participating in regulated pharmaceutical opportunities, and we believe the positive LiBBY results provide further validation of that long-term strategy. We continue to support leading academic and research institutions to advance patient outcomes across a number of additional clinical areas, including supplying active pharmaceutical ingredients and formulations for studies focused on epilepsy, chronic pain, insomnia, and oncology symptom management.

Speaker #2: Before reviewing the quarter, I would like to briefly remind you of Medifarm's core differentiators and outline how we're building on that foundation to drive growth in 2026 and beyond.

Greg Hunter: Before reviewing the quarter, I would like to briefly remind you of MediPharm's core differentiators and outline how we're building on that foundation to drive growth in 2026 and beyond. MediPharm is not a single-market or single-product company. We operate across four distinct revenue channels, supported by a regulatory and licensing platform that is both rare and difficult to replicate. Importantly, more than 80% of our revenue is generated from medical channels, where products are prescribed by healthcare practitioners and supplied within regulated medical frameworks. This differentiates MediPharm from many cannabis companies that primarily service recreational markets and further aligns our business with the increasing global focus on physician-led cannabinoid therapies. From a regulatory standpoint, MediPharm holds a unique combination of licenses, which takes years to obtain and millions of CAD to develop.

Speaker #2: This differentiates Medifarm from many cannabis companies that primarily service recreational markets and further aligns our business with the increasing global focus on physician-led cannabinoid therapies.

Speaker #2: From a regulatory standpoint, Medifarm holds a unique combination of licenses, which takes years to obtain and millions of dollars to develop. Notable licenses include a health Canada drug establishment license, EU GMP certification, and Visa GMP certification from Brazil, TGA compliance in Australia, an FDA inspected facility with prior shipments of pharmaceutical-grade APIs into the United States for research and use in clinical studies, and we maintain licenses and registrations that support natural health product development should that pathway evolve in Canada.

Greg Hunter: Notable licenses include a Health Canada Drug Establishment Licence, EU GMP certification, Anvisa GMP certification from Brazil, TGA compliance in Australia, an FDA-inspected facility with prior shipments of pharmaceutical-grade APIs into the United States for research and use in clinical studies, and we maintain licenses and registrations that support natural health product development should that pathway evolve in Canada. As a result, MediPharm is often selected because we are a trusted, compliant, and dependable partner, not because we are the lowest-cost option. In regulated medical and pharmaceutical channels, that distinction matters. Building on what makes MediPharm unique, I would like to expand on our strategy for growth and how it translated into execution in Q2. Our strategy is deliberate, diversified, and disciplined, spanning both organic execution and selective inorganic opportunities.

Speaker #2: As a result, Medifarm is often selected because we are a trusted, compliant, and dependable partner, not because we are the lowest-cost option. In regulated medical and pharmaceutical channels, that distinction matters.

Speaker #2: Building on what makes Medifarm unique, I would like to expand on our strategy for growth and how it translated into execution in the second quarter.

Speaker #2: Our strategy is deliberate, diversified, and disciplined, spanning both organic execution and selective inorganic opportunities. Organically, we are focused on maximizing the value of the platform we have spent years and millions of dollars to build.

Greg Hunter: Organically, we are focused on maximizing the value of the platform we have spent years and millions of CAD to build. Q2 reflected measured progress across our core markets, despite an operating environment where pricing, prescribing behavior, and reimbursement regimes continue to shift. International medical remains a key growth driver for MediPharm. Our strategy continues to focus on expanding our Beacon- and Wildlight-branded product portfolios, which support stronger customer relationships, increased patient adoption, more predictable demand, and an improved margin profile over time. In the quarter, Germany delivered 45% sequential growth, supported by expanded availability of branded flower under the Beacon and Wildlight portfolios. Branded product sales more than doubled during the quarter. The continued growth of MediPharm-branded products is intended to reduce exposure to spot price volatility and improve the sustainability of our economics over time.

Speaker #2: The continued growth of Medifarm branded products is intended to reduce exposure to spot-price volatility and improve the sustainability of our economics over time. At the same time, we remain active in white-label flour opportunities, participating only where margin thresholds and partner quality meet our standards.

Greg Hunter: At the same time, we remain active in white label flower opportunities, participating only where margin thresholds and partner quality meet our standards. Australia remains a key market for MediPharm. As market dynamics continue to evolve, we have adapted to both pricing pressure and changes in prescribing behavior by maintaining the premium positioning of Beacon while expanding Wildlight into the value segment. This dual-brand strategy allows us to participate across a broader portion of the market while preserving brand integrity, customer loyalty, and long-term value. During the H1 of the year, we focused on portfolio optimization and aligning our product offering with changing patient demand. We are pursuing targeted geographic expansion in regulated medical markets such as France, Brazil, New Zealand, and the UK, where we have had recent success and our licensing and pharma-grade credentials deliver a competitive advantage.

Speaker #2: We are pursuing targeted geographic expansion and regulated medical markets such as France, Brazil, New Zealand, and the UK, where we have had recent success and our licensing and pharma-grade credentials deliver a competitive advantage.

Speaker #2: Following our first shipment of medical cannabis oil to France in Q4 2025, we delivered a second purchase order in the quarter. As France transitions from a national pilot program to a permanent pharmaceutical-based medical cannabis framework, we believe Medifarm is well positioned.

Greg Hunter: Following our first shipment of medical cannabis oil to France in Q4 2025, we delivered a second purchase order in the quarter. As France transitions from a national pilot program to a permanent pharmaceutical-based medical cannabis framework, we believe MediPharm is well-positioned. The French system restricts medical cannabis to non-combustible forms and requires pharmaceutical-grade manufacturing standards supported by extensive regulatory dossiers, areas that align well with MediPharm's proven capabilities. In Brazil, we commenced manufacturing activities for an initial purchase order received in Q1 and expect to ship the order in the H2 of the year. This will be our first commercial shipment to this customer and an important step in expanding our presence in the Brazilian medical market. Following the successful launch of our Beacon brand in New Zealand in Q1, we received replenishment orders and expect to ship them in the back half of the year.

Speaker #2: The French system restricts medical cannabis to non-combustible forms and requires pharmaceutical-grade manufacturing standards supported by extensive regulatory dossiers. Areas that align well with Medifarm's proving capabilities.

Speaker #2: This will be our first commercial shipment to this customer, and an important step in expanding our presence in the Brazilian medical market. Following the successful launch of our beacon brand in New Zealand in Q1, we received replenishment orders and expect to ship them in the back half of the year.

Speaker #2: This allows us to leverage the beacon brands, which has been established with patients in neighboring Australia, for more than 5 years. We continue to invest in non-smokable and pharmaceutical-grade formats, including oils and inhalation technologies, which align with tightening regulatory expectations and patient demand while differentiating Medifarm from commodity suppliers.

We continue to invest in non-smokable and pharmaceutical-grade formats, including oils and inhalation technologies, which align with tightening regulatory expectations and patient demand, while differentiating MediPharm from commodity suppliers. During the quarter, we submitted a regulatory dossier related to our metered-dose inhaler, supporting potential future entry into additional regulated markets. These efforts reflect continued demand for precisely dosed, smoke-free formats in medical channels. In domestic medical, our growth strategy is centered on protecting and optimizing a high-value regulated patient base. We remain focused on continuity of care, service quality, and reliability, particularly for veteran patients, where trust and consistency matter most.

Speaker #2: In domestic medical, our growth strategy is centered on protecting and optimizing a high-value regulated patient base. We remain focused on continuity of care, service quality, and reliability, particularly for veteran patients, where trust and consistency matter most.

Speaker #2: While veteran reimbursement changes implemented by veteran affairs Canada in the quarter negatively impacted revenue, our approach to mitigating this impact is grounded in operational discipline, including cost control, procurement efficiency, and thoughtful product mix management, while continuing to prioritize patient outcomes.

Greg Hunter: While veteran reimbursement changes implemented by Veterans Affairs Canada in the quarter negatively impacted revenue, our approach to mitigating this impact is grounded in operational discipline, including cost control, procurement efficiency, and thoughtful product mix management while continuing to prioritize patient outcomes. We continue to service more patients by expanding third-party medical partnerships and platform listings, increasing access to MediPharm products beyond our own channels, and broadening SKU availability where it makes economic sense. Our clinic platform, Harvest Medicine, continues to provide capital-efficient patient access, supporting engagement, education, and retention. In adult use and wellness, MediPharm's strategy remains intentionally focused, selective, and margin-driven. We continue to defend our number 2 leadership position in premium oils, where MediPharm has built brand recognition and product credibility. Rather than chasing volume, we are prioritizing disciplined pricing, mix optimization, and cost efficiency, protecting contribution margin in a competitive environment.

Speaker #2: We are selectively innovating in adjacent non-smokable formats, including extract drops and differentiated formulations, where we can leverage existing capabilities. Distribution efforts are focused on markets and listings that meet return thresholds.

Greg Hunter: We are selectively innovating in adjacent non-smokable formats, including extract drops and differentiated formulations where we can leverage existing capabilities. Distribution efforts are focused on markets and listings that meet return thresholds. In pharma and B2B, we continue to leverage our Drug Establishment Licence, clinical trial experience, and our extensive manufacturing capabilities to support long-term pharmaceutical optionality and contract manufacturing opportunities. Across all organic initiatives, the consistent theme is regulatory alignment, margin quality, and repeatability, not short-term volume. In addition to organic growth, we view selective M&A as a complementary tool to strengthen and accelerate our strategy where there is a clear strategic fit. Our focus remains on opportunities that enhance our platform, expand our capabilities, and create long-term shareholder value as the industry continues to consolidate.

Greg Hunter: We remain disciplined in our approach, focusing on opportunities that align with our regulatory strength, strengthen our position in regulated medical markets, and improve the quality and sustainability of earnings. With a strong balance sheet, liquidity, and minimal debt, we have the flexibility to pursue attractive opportunities when the economics and integration profile are compelling while maintaining our commitment to financial discipline. Taken together, our organic and inorganic strategies are designed to build on MediPharm's differentiated platform, deepen our presence in regulated medical markets, and position the company to benefit as global medical markets continue to mature and consolidate.

Speaker #2: Turning to the P&L performance for the second quarter. Revenue was 10 million and increased 11% sequentially from 9 million in Q1, largely driven by our German business, which grew 45% sequentially.

Greg Hunter: Revenue was CAD 10 million and increased 11% sequentially from CAD 9 million in Q1, largely driven by our German business, which grew 45% sequentially. International medical cannabis revenue was CAD 5.8 million, representing approximately 58% of total revenue for the quarter, and grew 26% sequentially from CAD 4.6 million in Q1. Canadian medical cannabis revenue was CAD 2.3 million in Q2 compared with CAD 3 million in Q1. The decline was driven by the reimbursement changes, as discussed previously. Canadian adult use and wellness revenue was CAD 1.5 million and grew 34% from CAD 1.1 million in Q1, driven by seasonal patterns and broader market trends. Gross profit was CAD 4.3 million or 43% and grew 30% from Q1 and 13% versus prior year. Our gross profit margin remains among the highest gross margins the company has achieved. Gross margin performance reflects disciplined product mix management, branded international sales, and continued cost control.

Operator, I'll now open the line for questions.

Speaker #2: Operator, I'll now open the line for questions.

Speaker #1: We will now take questions from the web. Our first question comes from Nestor, and it reads, "The growth in Germany appears strong. Are there any headwinds expected in the future quarters that would challenge this sustained growth?"

Operator: We'll now take questions from the web. Our first question comes from Nestor, and it reads: The growth in Germany appears strong. Are there any headwinds expected in the future quarters that would challenge this sustained growth?

Speaker #2: Hi. Thanks, Nestor, for the question. Let me start a bit broader with Germany. So Germany remains one of our most important growth markets, and as you heard in our prepared remarks, it was a significant contributor to our Q2 performance.

Greg Hunter: Hi. Thanks, Nestor, for the question. Let me start a bit broader with Germany. Germany remains one of our most important growth markets, and as you heard in our prepared remarks, was a significant contributor to our Q2 performance. During the quarter, German revenue increased 45% sequentially and 33% year-over-year, making it one of our best international geographies for the quarter. Yeah, we are seeing increased competition in Germany and creating some pricing pressure. I think probably the bigger one is regulators are starting to take a closer look at the market, particularly within the GMP supply chain compliance requirements. We view this as a competitive advantage to MediPharm. Those developments support our long-term strategy because as we've talked about, our business is built and founded upon EU GMP and pharmaceutical manufacturing compliance. Regulatory is in our DNA.

Speaker #2: So during the quarter, German revenue increased 45% sequentially and 33% year over year, making it one of our best international geographies for the quarter.

Speaker #2: So yeah, we are seeing increased competition in Germany, and creating some pricing pressure. I think probably the bigger one is regulators are starting to take a closer look at the market, particularly within the GMP supply chain compliance requirements.

Speaker #2: And we view this as a competitive advantage to Medifarm. Those developments support our long-term strategy because as we've talked about, our business is built and founded upon EU GMP and pharmaceutical manufacturing compliance.

Speaker #2: So regulatory is in our DNA, and so with our established relationships, our regulatory credentials, we believe this increased regulatory scrutiny will become a competitive advantage for Medifarm.

Greg Hunter: With our established relationships, our regulatory credentials, we believe this increased regulatory scrutiny will become a competitive advantage for MediPharm. The other thing I'd add is within Germany, as we talked about in prepared remarks, is our branded strategy where we're increasing our business on both our Beacon Medical and our Wildlight branded products, while also participating in the white label market as well. In addition with flagship partners like we've talked about in the past with STADA, focusing on non-combustible products such as oils and other differentiated formats. We're still bullish and optimistic that Germany will continue to be a long-term growth opportunity for MediPharm.

Speaker #2: The other thing I'd add is within Germany, as we talked about in prepared remarks, is our branded strategy where we're increasing our business on both our beacon medical and our wildlife branded products.

Speaker #2: While also participating in the white label market as well. And in addition, with flagship partners like we've talked about in the past with Stata, focusing on non-combustible products such as oils and other differentiated formats.

Speaker #2: So we're still bullish and optimistic that Germany will continue to be a long-term growth opportunity for Medifarm.

Speaker #1: Our next question reads, "What specific measures are you introducing to absorb the VAX reimbursement changes?"

Operator: Our next question reads: What specific measures are you introducing to absorb the VAC reimbursement changes?

Speaker #2: Yeah. Thanks for the question. So maybe if I just back up on the reimbursement changes. So veterans affairs Canada implemented changes to the medical cannabis reimbursement that took place effective April 1, where it reduced the maximum reimbursable amount from 850 a gram to $6 per gram.

Greg Hunter: Yeah. Thanks for the question. So maybe if I just back up on the reimbursement changes. Veterans Affairs Canada implemented changes to the medical cannabis reimbursement that took place effective 1 April, where it reduced the maximum reimbursable amount from CAD 8.50 a gram to CAD 6 per gram. So a 30% reduction. This impacts our Canadian direct-to-patient medical channel, where veterans have predominantly been the larger portion of that business. These changes were expected and are in line with our expectations. So we did see a step down in revenue in that segment of our business for the quarter, in line with expectations, as I said. But importantly, we've been able to mitigate a lot of those impacts through a combination of initiatives that we've implemented, whether it be cost reduction initiatives, supply chain efficiencies, portfolio optimization.

Speaker #2: So a 30% reduction. And so this impacts our Canadian direct-to-patient medical channel where veterans have predominantly been the larger portion of that business. So these changes were expected, and are in line with our expectations.

Speaker #2: So we did see a step-down in revenue in that segment of our business for the quarter, in line with expectations as I said. But importantly, we've been able to mitigate a lot of those impacts through a combination of initiatives that we've implemented, whether it be cost reduction initiatives, supply chain efficiencies, portfolio optimization, but the key thing here is we've been able to maintain the high level of service that is critical for these for our patients and particularly our veterans.

Greg Hunter: But the key thing here is we've been able to maintain the high level of service that is critical for our patients and particularly our veterans. I think that mitigation is demonstrated in the results. We still delivered 11% sequential revenue growth. We delivered positive net income, a second consecutive quarter of positive adjusted EBITDA. So despite these changes, which were in line with expectations, we were able to mitigate that and continue to deliver improved results.

Speaker #2: And I think that mitigation is demonstrated in the results. We still delivered 11% sequential revenue growth. We delivered positive net income a second consecutive quarter of positive adjusted EBITDA.

Speaker #2: So despite these changes, which were in line with expectations, we were able to mitigate that and continue to deliver improved results.

Speaker #1: And our third question reads, "Can you add more detail on the Libby study now that the top-line result has been presented?"

Operator: And our third question reads: can you add more detail on the LiBBY study now that the top-line results have been presented?

Speaker #2: Yeah. Yeah, certainly. So thanks for the question on Libby. So obviously, we're very excited with the Libby trial. Just to back up again and remind folks, so Libby was a phase two randomized double-blind placebo-controlled study that evaluated our proprietary cannabinoid formulation that was developed by Medifarm and manufactured by Medifarm for patients with advanced dementia.

Greg Hunter: Yeah. Certainly. Thanks for the question on LiBBY. So obviously, we're very excited with the LiBBY trial. Just to back up again and remind folks, so LiBBY was a phase II randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study that evaluated our proprietary cannabinoid formulation that was developed by MediPharm and manufactured by MediPharm for patients with advanced dementia and agitation. As we said in the prepared remarks, the LiBBY team presented their results at the Alzheimer's Association International Conference in July, showing that it met primary endpoint and all secondary endpoints, which is really exciting news. As we said, we have filed two US provisional patents related to both the formulation and the therapeutic applications.

Speaker #2: And agitation. And as we said in the prepared remarks, the Libby team presented their results at the Alzheimer's Conference in July, showing that it met primary endpoint and all secondary endpoints.

Speaker #2: Which is really exciting news. And as we said, we have filed two US provisional patents related to both the formulation and the therapeutic applications.

Speaker #2: And this just further validates, again, what we talked about is our pharmaceutical platform, the quality standards that we can meet where we participate in pharmaceutical markets and our ability to ship product into the US through a sophisticated and regulated supply chain for clinical trial.

Greg Hunter: This just further validates, again, what we talked about is our pharmaceutical platform, the quality standards that we can meet, where we participate in pharmaceutical markets, and our ability to ship product into the US through a sophisticated and regulated supply chain for clinical trial. It is still very early days. Again, these results were just presented in mid-July. We look forward to continuing to partner and work with the LiBBY team as we look to advance here. We will keep investors updated as we continue to advance this opportunity. I will take the opportunity to mention that we also participate in 10 other clinical trials that we have disclosed as well across many different indications. Again, we are optimistic about potential results here.

Speaker #2: And so it's still very early days. Again, these results were just presented in mid-July. So we look forward to continuing to partner and work with the Libby team as we look to advance here.

Speaker #2: And we'll keep investors updated as we continue to advance this opportunity. And we also I'll take the opportunity to mention that we also participate in 10 other clinical trials that we've disclosed as well across many different indications.

Speaker #2: So again, we're optimistic about potential results here.

Speaker #1: And we have no further questions. This will conclude our Q&A session. I would like to turn the call back to Greg Hunter for closing remarks.

Operator: We have no further questions. This will conclude our Q&A session. I would like to turn the call back to Greg Hunter for closing remarks.

Speaker #2: Yeah. Thanks. So maybe just in closing, just reiterate a couple of the key points we talked about in our prepared remarks. So obviously, it was an exciting quarter.

Greg Hunter: Yeah, thanks. Maybe just in closing, just reiterate a couple of the key points that we talked about in our prepared remarks. Obviously, it was an exciting quarter for MediPharm, not just financially, because it was, again, our strongest adjusted EBITDA since 2019, the second consecutive quarter of positive EBITDA, and our first quarter of positive net income since 2019. International continues to be a very large portion of our business, over 50%. As I said in prepared remarks as well, 80% of our revenue comes from the medical channels that require a healthcare practitioner prescription. These are the more regulated markets, which benefits MediPharm. We closed with a strong balance sheet, which gives us flexibility with over CAD 10 million in cash. With that, I would like to thank everybody for joining, and look forward to providing you with updates next quarter. Thanks, everyone.

Speaker #2: For Medifarm, not just financially because it was, again, our strongest adjusted EBITDA since 2019. The second consecutive quarter of positive EBITDA. And our first quarter of positive net income since 2019.

Speaker #2: International continues to be a very large portion of our business, over 50%. And as I said, in prepared remarks as well, 80% of our revenue comes from the medical channels that require a healthcare practitioner prescriptions.

Speaker #2: So which are the more regulated markets which benefit Medifarm. And we closed with a strong balance sheet which gives us flexibility. It's over 10 million in cash.

Speaker #2: So with that, I'd like to thank everybody for joining. And look forward to providing you with updates next quarter. Thanks, everyone.

Operator: This concludes today's conference call. Thank you for your participation. You may now disconnect.
