Pedro Malha: Good afternoon, everybody, and thank you for joining us to discuss our second quarter results. Let me start with the quarter at a high level. Overall, this was a mixed quarter. Revenue came in at approximately $72 million at a lower end of our guidance range. Equipment sales remain the biggest headwind as providers continue to take a cautious approach to capital investments. Consumables proved a bit more resilient supported by the continuous growth of our installed base although treatment activity remained below expectations. This overall revenue pressure was evident across both our domestic and international businesses. with international markets remaining a bit more challenging. At the same time, profitability for the quarter was significantly stronger than we expected. Adjusted EBITDA came in at $70 million well above our guidance range and driven by strong gross margins and continued discipline in how we manage the business. In summary, we are not satisfied with our top line performance but the quarter reinforce an important point. Even in a more demanding commercial environment, we are building a stronger company with better margins, greater operating discipline and a more resilient financial model. As importantly, nothing we saw this quarter changed our strategic direction, If anything, it reinforced it. Let me spend a few minutes now on what we are seeing in the market. Because it can provide an important context for both the quarter and the strategic choices we are making. The long term demand for skin health remains healthy. What is changing is how that demand is being distributed. Consumers have more treatment options than ever before and providers are making more selective capital investment decisions as they evaluate a broader range of technologies. We believe that environment rewards companies with trusted brands meaningful innovation, strong clinical evidence and deep provider relationships. And those are the areas where our company is best positioned to compete where we continue to focus our investments. As we said last quarter, market conditions are only a part of this story. Our responsibility is to execute better, and that is exactly where our efforts are focused. We are strengthening our commercial capabilities, improving how we engage with customers and becoming more effective at converting opportunities. Those are the things we can control And that is where our team is focused every day. We also continue to believe strongly in the long term opportunity for this business. For more than 20 years, Hydrofacial has built 1 of the most recognized and clinical validated brands in professional skin health. Today, we serve more than 3.01 thousand providers worldwide. Have a large and growing installed base and generate around 75% of our revenue from recurring consumables. Which together build durable competitive advantage that position us to create long term value. Last quarter, we discussed several of the investments we are making across the business. Including consumable boosters, and the next generation of the HydraFacial device. Today, I want to explain how this work together to support our long term strategy. Our strategy is built around 3 priorities. First, strengthening and growing the core HydraFacial franchise. Second, increasing the value of every system already in the field. And third, leveraging our platform and provider relationships to expand into attractive adjacent categories. Together, these priorities are designed to accelerate sustainable growth by expanding our installed base, increasing treatment utilization, growing recurring revenue, and creating a more diversified business over time. Let me start with the first priority. Strengthen and growing our core HydraFacial franchise. A key part of strengthening the franchise is making the platform accessible to a broader range of providers. As we discussed in prior quarters, capital constraints remain 1 of the most significant barriers to adoption. So to address that, early this month, we introduced in the US a new device rental program designed to lower the upfront investment by providers, and make HydraFacial accessible to more practices. We believe this will expand our addressable market and support growth of our installed base. The financial accounting for the program is similar to our existing sales program, with the revenue for the sales being booked upfront upon shipment Also, the program was built with a third-party financing partner who takes ownership of the devices and administers the program. Part of this strategy of strengthening and growing our core HydraFacial franchise is also the investment we are making in the next generation of HydraFacial platform. As we discussed last quarter, this remains a multi year development program targeting a 2028 launch. Our objective here with the new next generation of the HydraFacial Platform is to deliver a meaningful step forward in clinical outcomes treatment experience, and provide a workflow while also creating a compelling reason for existing customers to upgrade and for new customers to choose HydraFacial. Moving now to our second strategic priority, increasing the value of every system already in the field. Our installed base is 1 of our company's greatest competitive advantages. It gives us long standing relationship with providers around the world and supports a highly recurring revenue model that few companies in our industry can match. As we discussed last quarter, improving utilization remains 1 of the largest and most immediate growth opportunities that we have. So our objective here is very clear. is to help providers perform more treatments. Deliver better clinical outcomes and improve the value of every customer visit. And that is exactly what our investments in clinically validated boosters and treatment enhancements are designed to do. To support that strategy, our next clinically validated booster is expected to launch globally in April. With additional launches planned throughout 2027. Finally, our third strategic priority, which is to use our platform and provider relationships that we have built over the past 2 decades and leverage those to expand into adjacent categories where providers and consumers are increasingly investing. This strategy is intended to diversify our portfolio, create additional growth engines, and to do so by building on capabilities we already have. The skin microneedling device is a good example of that strategy in action. It gives us participation in 1 of the fastest growing categories in aesthetics, and continues to perform well. And recently, we received the FDA clearance for the improvement in the appearance of periorbital wrinkles and more importantly, it also demonstrates our ability to introduce clinically differentiated technology through the provider relationships we already established. Hydroscope is another example. The repositioning and relaunch of Keravive extends our presence into the growing scalp and hair wellness category, while increasing the value of HydraFacial systems already in the field. Following its June relaunch, we are encouraged by how HydraScalp continues to gain traction. Also, as we discussed on our last call, we continue to make progress on our plans to introduce a new device to the U.S. market in 2027. This is not another HydraFacial device. And reflects our broader strategy of building a platform of clinically differentiated skin health solutions that leverages the provider relationships and commercial infrastructure we have spent more than 2 decades building. So before I turn the call over to Mike, let me leave you with 2 observations here. First, we are not satisfied with our current performance. Despite our current business environment remaining challenging improving execution is our responsibility and remains our highest priority. Secondly, we believe our company has exceptional access and a clear path to using them more effectively. The rental program and the continued advancement of our next generation platform demonstrates that the strategy is moving from planning to execution. We know that there is still plenty of work to do. But we are in the process of building a stronger and more diversified company with multiple opportunities for long term growth. And so with that, I will turn the call over to Mike to review the financial results in more detail.

Michael Monahan: Thank you, Pedro. In the second quarter, total net sales were $72.1 million down 7.8% versus the prior year. Delivery systems revenue was $18.3 million, down 18.4%, with 7 hundred and 70 systems placed compared to 957 in the prior year. Consumables revenue was $53.9 million down 3.5% driven primarily by lower utilization and a tough prior-year comparison that included booster launches. Our active installed base grew to 36.5 thousand systems globally, up 3.8% year over year and remains the foundation of our recurring revenue. Despite this continued top line pressure, adjusted EBITDA came in above our projections, This was primarily driven by adjusted gross margin expansion disciplined cost management, and timing of R&D investments in commercial initiatives. Sales performance by region is as follows. Americas net sales were $49.9 million down 4.2%. Consumable sales were down 1.4% while delivery systems reflected the broader capital equipment pressure. EMEA net sales were $14.9 million down 19% driven by softness in both equipment and consumables. We have been actively addressing headwinds in the EMEA market. We had personnel shortages in the region along with a shift of timing in distributor orders, which we expect to improve in the second half of the year. APAC net sales were $7.3 million down 5.4%. During the second quarter, we transitioned Australia and New Zealand back to a distributor model from a direct model. We now have the entire APAC region being served by a distributor model. We believe this approach better serves the region going forward. The 2026 financial impact of the Australia New Zealand transition to a distributor model is a reduction of revenue of approximately $1 million. GAAP gross margin was 68.4%, up from 62.8% Adjusted gross margin was 71.8% compared to 65.9% in the prior year. Representing a 590 basis point improvement. The year over year improvement was primarily driven by 3 factors. First, lower cost of goods on equipment due to sell through of trade in units to pressured margins a year ago. Second, lower inventory related charges and continued efficiency in operations as we realized the benefits of tightened inventory purchasing and disciplined cost management. And third, a favorable mix shift towards consumables. GAAP operating expenses were $45.8 million down from $51.8 million reflecting lower personnel costs and improved efficiencies. Within total operating expense, selling and marketing was $21 million G&A was $23.3 million and R&D was $1.4 million We expect R&D to step up in the second half of the year as our innovation initiatives ramp. On a GAAP basis, we generated income from operations of $3 million compared to a loss of $2.7 million in the prior year. Net loss was $2.7 million compared to net income of $19.7 million a year ago. The prior year figure included an $18.1 million net gain related to the exchange and repurchases of our 2026 notes. Adjusted EBITDA was $17 million up from $13.9 million in the prior year and above our guidance range of $11 million to $13 million The year over year increase in adjusted EBITDA was largely driven by operating expense savings from lower selling and marketing expenses and lower professional service fees and G&A. We ended the quarter with approximately $26 million in cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash. This is approximately $1.5 million above our first quarter ending cash position. Our October 2026 convertible maturity is approximately $103 million Based on our current cash position and our expected second half cash needs, we remain confident in our ability to address this maturity. We will continue to evaluate options based on our cash needs and market conditions. As of today, our current plan is to retire the October 2026 maturity with cash on hand at the end of the third quarter. We are lowering our revenue outlook to $280 million to $290 million by reducing the top end of the previous guide reflecting continued pressure on year over year device sales. We are raising our adjusted EBITDA outlook to $39 million to $46 million from $35 million to $45 million previously reflecting the margin strength and cost discipline we delivered in the first half of the year. Our second half guidance reflects increased investment of $4 million in R&D and commercial initiatives versus the first half of the year, As a result, we are projecting our second half adjusted EBITDA to decline relative to the first half. For the third quarter, we expect revenue of $65 million to $70 million and adjusted EBITDA of $5 million to $7 million Finally, I would like to briefly address our NASDAQ listing. As we disclosed, we received notice from Nasdaq that our stock had traded below the dollar minimum bid price requirement for 30 days. As outlined in our preliminary proxy statement filed last Friday, we will be asking stockholders to approve a reverse stock split at a special meeting scheduled for September 22 to remain compliant. The proxy provides a range of potential split ratios and if approved, our board will determine the specific ratio within that range it believes is appropriate based on market conditions and other relevant factors at the time of implementation. For more information, please read the definitive proxy statement that we will file with the SEC. With that, I will turn the call back to Pedro.

Pedro Malha: Thanks, Mike. Let me close with 1 final thought. This quarter did not change our view of the business. The market remains demanding, and we know that we need to continue improving on execution. But at the same time, we are making tangible progress against the strategic priorities that we laid out. The rental program is underway HydraScalp has been relaunched. Skin stylist is taking good traction. The development of our next boosters and next generation HydraFacial platform continues to advance and we continue to make progress on our plans to introduce a new device in the US in 2027. All of these are meaningful milestones and they reinforce our conviction that we are building a stronger, more diversified company with multiple drivers of future growth. Operator, you can now open the line for questions.

Operator: Thank you. Ladies and gentlemen, we will now begin the question and answer session. Should you have a question, please press the star followed by the 1 on your touch tone phone. You will hear a prompt that your hand has been raised. Should you wish to decline from the polling process, please press the star, followed by the 2. If you are using a speakerphone, please lift the handset before pressing any keys. 1 moment. Your first question comes from Oliver Chen with TD Cowen. Please go ahead.

Oliver: Hi, Pedro and Mike. Regarding what you are seeing with consumables, being down relative to the active installed base, what is happening there with utilization and or the inventory on the installed base, that you are noticing? And, also, I think you had a tough compare there too. Second question, on the on the convertible note due in October, what do you need for cash in terms of your base level of cash and also things we should know about working capital dynamics and needs there. In terms of the cash flow And finally, regarding the rental program, how do you manage for incrementality and not cannibalization? And what is the thinking that goes through? It sounds like it is going to increase your TAM and there is a reason for people to buy, and a different reason for people to rent. Thank you.

Pedro Malha: Thanks, Oliver. So I will address the consumable dynamics, and then I will go just right in into the rental program. And then I will let Mike address the convertible note, the cash, and the working capital question. So in terms of what we are seeing in consumer dynamics, I do not think that the consumer itself has fundamentally Meaning, people continue to invest in skin health and they could continue to believe in the long term demand for non invasive skin treatments. So that continues to be healthy. What has changed in our view is that consumers now have more choices than they ever did years ago. And they are basically spreading their aesthetic spending across a broader range of treatments. And also, in the same line of thinking providers have to now work harder to keep these patients engaged and keep these consumers engaged and these consumers coming back into their doors. And so that is why we do not look at this simply as a demand issue when it comes to consumer behavior, when it comes to our consumables performance. We see it actually as an opportunity to increase the productivity of every HydraFacial systems that we have in the field. And that is exactly why I discussed, you know, during my prepared remarks, the second pillar of our strategy, which is basically focus on improving, increasing the utilization. We have the boosters, HydraScalp, all of that enhance the utilization. We also are working in better provider education and better protocols. And all of those basically they come with 1 single objective, which is for these providers to perform more treatments. And to be able to personalize those treatments and be able to create a better economic return from every system that they own. So yes, consumables have been under pressure and we think that they have been, you know, under pressure in the near term. But we see this as an execution opportunity for us. And that is exactly where we are investing. In terms of the rental program, you are talking now more at about devices. As I explained, and if we look back, the rental program addresses 1 of our biggest barriers that we have seen in the last quarters. Which is basically the upfront capital commitment from providers. And with this new program that we launched in the US, we are giving qualified US providers another way to access HydraFacial through a much more manageable payment structure. and conditions. I am not gonna go through all the mechanics of the program right here. But the objective and I am sure it is pretty clear. The objective is simple. it is basically to remove a quite meaningful adoption barrier that we have been noticing in the past quarters And when doing that, we the expectation is to expand the installed base. And we do not expect to cannibalize We expect just to bring more providers into the fold giving that we are going to be lifting this barrier. So Mike, Adam, do you want to address the capital questions?

Michael Monahan: Sure. Hi, Oliver. The forecast, the midpoint of our forecast is assumes that we will end the year roughly with about $100 million in cash That would exclude any kind of unforeseen items that we do not have in the in the model, but we feel pretty comfortable kind of with that level, and that gives us enough cushion in our view. Heading into 2027 to kind of manage the business and meet the working capital needs. Thank you. Best regards.

Operator: All right. Thank you. Your next question comes from Susan Anderson with Canaccord Genuity. Please go ahead.

Susan: Hi. Thanks for taking my questions. I guess maybe I was just kind of first looking for some color just around the consumer behavior you are seeing out there. The consumables now down 2 quarters in a row. Are you seeing consumers maybe extend the time frame between treatments or maybe foregoing a treatment, or is it more just that they are, you know, not trading up and adding consumables to, their treatments that they are getting done. Thanks.

Pedro Malha: Sure. As I explained, yes, all of them have definitely more choices for the consumables. For the consumers to come in. Which is great, which means that the segment is healthy, continues to have innovation, and consumers continue to spend money in the category. And that is all the levers that we need We just need to position ourselves better to take advantage of that willingness to spend in aesthetics. All the things that I referred, all the initiatives, all the strategies, that we are putting basically into place speak to that. Right? The boosters basically all the investment that we are doing in the boosters is there to increase the treatment frequency. The relaunch of PedroScout is there to create additional recurring revenue from the same devices on the same practices. The relaunch of the skin stylist, basically we put that there and we are putting a lot of focus because we want to leverage the relationship into a fast category that we currently have which is microneedling. So all of that is actually targeted to take advantage of that healthy spend that we see happening. Okay, great. And then maybe if you could just talk a little bit about just the competitive landscape that you are seeing out there. I think last quarter, you mentioned that it was intensifying. I guess, are you still seeing a pretty intense competitive landscape from other competitors out there? Thanks. Sure, Susan. Not so different from what I said last quarter. Basically, indeed, the market has become more competitive and some competitors are using pricing and other commercial incentives more aggressively. We have seen this throughout the year. Nothing new here. But our focus is rather on showing these providers where we can differentiate HydraFacial, where we can differentiate SkinStylus and so forth. And where are the economics of our treatment come in and where we can create value to their practice. So short answer, no, no change from last quarter and what we discussed, but these are the undercurrent dynamics that we have been noticing in the market. Okay. Great. Thanks so much. Good luck the rest of the year. Thank you.

Operator: Your next question comes from John-Paul Wollam with ROTH Capital Partners. Please go ahead.

JP: Great. Hi, guys. I appreciate you taking my questions. If I could maybe just start, you know, hoping that you could give us an update on sort of the new Syndeo equipment and where payback periods are? I know you opened up the rental program, but just for those providers who are still making the full investment where do payback periods sit today, and how is that in influencing your thoughts about, you know, the pricing for the eventual new equipment in 2028?

Pedro Malha: So I can speak a little bit. I will touch on the new Syndeo. In terms of innovation road map. And, Mike, you can share some of these numbers. Just to round down the answer. Here. In terms of the next gen HydraFacial, as we have been discussing, in the past quarters, this continues to be a program that has a 2028 launch target. And the objective and where the team has been working and moving forward is to bring to market a meaningful step of innovation. In terms of clinical outcomes, of the overall experience, in terms of provider workflow, and basically giving the existing providers that have HydraFacial now a pretty compelling reason to upgrade and, obviously, bring new providers into the fold with a strong reason to choose HydraFacial. Versus other procedures. it is a bit too early to discuss more details on specifically the features that we are working on and or the economics behind it. But and obviously, we will provide all the details as the program progresses. But we feel very encouraged by the development. And the gate cycle of the process. That we are currently doing.

Michael Monahan: Mike, you wanna Sure. Hi, JP. Typically, we tell consumer and providers that the payback can be roughly around 9 months? That obviously depends on how many treatments and the volume that you do. The more treatments that a provider is able to do, the faster the payback is. But, generally, that is the overall number that we give. Okay.

JP: And then a follow-up, Mike, maybe more for you. But, you know, on the last call, I think we sort of talked about Q1 gross margin maybe kind of being the high for the year. Just curious, you broke down a little bit of where the strength in 2Q is coming from. But just if there is any more detail there and then about how you kind of expect gross margin to run through the back half of the year, it would be appreciated. And, really, the question then is sort of the you know, the implication for EBITDA on the back half. You have done obviously such a great job of managing costs that the question really is sort of you know, what why is that stepping down? And is that baking in a little bit of conservatism?

Michael Monahan: Yeah. Thanks, JP. So overall, just to kind of speak to the midpoint of our guide. So the first half of the year, adjusted gross margin was 72%. Is what we did. You know, the midpoint of our guide kind of assumes that there is a step-down on adjusted gross margin into kind of the 68% range. And the real reason for that is a couple of things. 1 is we expect an increased mix of equipment revenue in the back half of the year. When you look at the percentage of the revenue mix, it leaned more heavily towards consumables. In the first half of the year. And as we introduce the rental program and some of the other initiatives around the device sales, we expect that to shift a bit. So we are expecting gross margin to feel a little pressure there. The second piece coming through there is actually within the equipment mix. So we modeled in an increased percentage of Syndeo machines. Versus the first half of the year, and that is largely due to the rental program To qualify for the rental program, it is only for the Syndeo devices that we have, and they tend to have a higher cost of goods than some of our other devices. So overall, those are kind of the 2 big drivers kind of pressuring kind of margin. On the back half, again, just to speak to the midpoint, so the first half of the year, adjusted EBITDA was a little over $25 million The midpoint of our guide would assume a little bit less than $17 million of adjusted EBITDA in the back half of the year. And, you know, that is gonna be driven by 3 things. Primarily. The first is the lower adjusted gross margin that we just kind of walked through the key drivers of that. The second is there is timing of R&D and commercial marketing expenses that are more back end weighted this year. Than they have been in the past. And so we have those moving into the back. And then the last piece of it is we have some general operating expenses that we had lower expenses than what I would call normal. A simple example is kind of our bad debt expense was running very, very low in the first half of the year, and we are projecting that to go back to more normalized levels in the back half of the year. So you know, as you look at the overall kind of forecast towards the midpoint, it ends up being those 2 key factors, the higher operating expenses and lower adjusted gross margin. Got it. Very helpful detail. Best of luck going forward, guys. Thank you.

Operator: Your next question comes from Sydney Wagner with Jefferies. Please go ahead.

Cindy: Hi. Thanks for taking our question. So when you think about the adjacent categories, how much of the opportunity comes from acquiring new customers versus increasing penetration within your existing provider base? And then, I guess, just also wondering if there is any further detail that you can share on the new device that is coming as well. Thank you.

Pedro Malha: Hey, Cindy. So in terms of where we think we are gonna get the biggest share actually is gonna come from both. We have an incredible large install base. it is actually 1 of our biggest and most valuable assets that we have. And so any product that we relaunch or launch is definitely gonna be primarily target into that extensive install base. Because that is an automatic channel that we have and an automatic lift that we can that we can explore. In terms of more details into the strategic partnership, so last quarter, basically, we discussed how we our intention to expanding to an adjacent category. And the most important update that we are ready to give is that we are indeed progressing in that area. And the goal is to bring a device to market next year. And the objective for us as we have been working throughout this project is to basically broaden the set of solutions and the set of procedures that we can offer to this extensive provider network that I just mentioned And again, leverage the infrastructure that we have. Right now, as we stand, we are not in the position to discuss the specifics of the technology itself. But definitely, we will share more as we get closer to concluding this project. Any follow-up questions? Alright. We are done.

Operator: I Your next question comes from Bruce Jackson with The Benchmark Company. Please go ahead.

Bruce: Hi. Thanks for taking my question. I wanted to ask a little bit more about the booster you plan to launch during the fourth quarter. Is it going to be targeted to any particular market segment? So for example, the medical or the aesthetic segment and will it be out in time for the holidays?

Pedro Malha: Yeah, Bruce. So the target date is Q4. it is gonna be a clinically validated booster. Which is gonna be aligned with the new strategy that we are putting behind every single booster that we are gonna put investment dollars behind from going forward. Everything is going according to plan. it is tracking. That is what we are comfortable to share right now. We are expecting the same level of performance and commercial behavior as we had with Hydralock as an example. Which was again another booster that has good traction to it. This is just the beginning and we will be launching more clinically backed boosters next week as well. Part of the booster development and innovation roadmap. Okay.

Bruce: And then 1 follow-up In 2027, what do you anticipate in terms of the launch cadence? So it is gonna be like 1 every 6 months 1 big 1 for the year, How are you thinking about that?

Pedro Malha: 2 boosters. that is the plan as we stand right now. Again, we are being very diligent and I will say good stewards of capital when it comes to boosters We are going to only launch boosters that are clinically backed and can provide clinical outcomes. Okay. that is it for me. Thank you.

Operator: Thank you. Your next question comes from Olivia Tong Cheang with Raymond James. Please go ahead.

Martin Metella: Hi. Good afternoon. This is Martin on for Olivia. I just want to quickly touch on the rental program and get an idea of what was the impetus of it. Was this sort of a request from potential or existing providers? Is this something that other competitors are doing?

Pedro Malha: What we have been doing is looking at challenges in terms of being able to expand our device footprint. We went through a strategic analysis of the market, and we identified pretty clearly that the ability to finance or the ability to qualify for financing continues to be 1 of the major barriers of a large number of providers in The US. So the team went to work. And we built a rental program and model that will definitely ease that barrier of entry and allow these providers to have and to operate the HydraFacial machine in their practice. So basically we saw the program, and we stood up a model that addresses in our view, will substantially fix that problem. Great. Thank you very much. Thank you.

Operator: Your next question comes from Navann Ty Dietschi with BNP Paribas. Please go ahead.

Navin: Hi. Thanks for taking my question. My first 1 is we have seen the neurotoxin market improving sequentially this quarter. So do you expect some improvement in the aesthetics capital equipment environment to follow with a lag, or is that too early?

Pedro Malha: So as I mentioned that is a good question. As I mentioned in the beginning, we continue to see the market as a healthy category. Aesthetics continues to grow, people continue to dedicate some discretionary spending into aesthetics. And a lot of these categories are actually growing. Toxins is 1 of them. So we see this as an opportunity. What we are doing is catering and building strategies that can take advantage of that spend. And so all the strategies that I just discussed speak exactly to that objective. Thank you. And maybe if you can discuss some early progress or examples on increasing the productivity of the HydraFacial installed base?

Navin: Thank you.

Pedro Malha: I am sorry. Can you can you just repeat your question? Just kind of broke up a little bit.

Navin: If you could discuss some early progress or example on increasing the productivity of the HydraFacial installed base.

Pedro Malha: Sure. So I can definitely start with commercial with commercial excellence. Again, this is an area that we keep investing in. That is 1. The other is we are launching the boosters speaking right into the utilization of the devices. that is another. And so again, we are very focused on making more out of every single machine that is out there in the field. Yeah.

Michael Monahan: Hi, Navann, I could add 1 thing I would just add. I think we can point to in terms of progress in Q2 was around skin stylists. So here was a product that we have that we began really focusing on the sales team refocus their efforts in order to sell into the existing base. And while it is, you know, a small revenue stream for us, it grew you know, nearly 50% year over year in the second quarter when the sales and marketing team reshifted the focus there. So I just point that out, not that it material impact on the overall p and l, in the second quarter, but it is an example of Salesforce execution and partnership in marketing where, you know, the team was really able to drive results. Thank you. This is helpful, both.

Operator: Thank you. Ladies and gentlemen, at this time, there are no further questions. And this concludes today's conference call. Thank you for participating. You may now disconnect.
