Thank you, Brian and thank you all for joining us on today’s call. Earlier today we announced results for our fiscal first quarter, with revenues of $89.1 million, up 22% year-over-year and both adjusted net income and earnings per share at the high-end of our guidance. Our end demand remains robust with strength at hyperscale customers driving a meaningful increase in sequential bookings. We remain restricted in our ability to fulfill all customer orders due to the ongoing supply constraints, which has caused our backlog to reach unprecedented levels. Historically, our backlog has been 5% or less of our reported quarterly revenue. As of the first fiscal quarter, our backlog has grown to $30 million compared to $14 million in the previous quarter and $2 million in the year ago period. While not all backlog represents potential revenues in the following quarter, our end demand remains robust across our business, particularly with the hyperscaler customers, and we are seeing significantly higher levels of visibility. We are starting to see signs from one of our key suppliers that there will be more strength closing out this quarter and continuing to strengthen in the following quarter. Despite the near-term industry supply constraints, our long-term business transformation continues to move forward. During the quarter, our software and subscription customers grew more than 20% sequentially with bookings up two-times. While still off a small base, I'm pleased with the progress we continue to make toward our shift to a more recurring revenue model. Also during the June quarter, we delivered an all-time quarterly revenue record for our recently formed cloud software and analytics group. This group, which represents the acquisitions of Square Box Systems and the CatDV media asset management business benefited from the increased scale of the Quantum global Salesforce and generated a…

Thank you, Jamie. Welcome for everyone who has joined our call today. Our first fiscal quarter 2022 represented another strong quarter of customer demand, demonstrating continued acceleration in our underlying business. As Jamie mentioned, first quarter revenue was $89.1 million, up 22% from the same period last year. Near-term supply shortages continue to present headwinds for our secondary storage systems business during the first fiscal quarter. Revenues from secondary storage were up more than 7% sequentially, but remained restricted by our ability to obtain key components. As Jamie mentioned in his opening remarks, we do expect the supply chain to begin to firm up by the end of this quarter and continue to show improvements into next quarter. Although, it is still too early to understand the rate of improvement, we do believe we will see a demonstrative improvement starting in our fiscal third quarter. Primary storage systems declined sequentially, primarily as a result of the lumpiness of the M&E business during the COVID recovery period. And to a lesser extent, the impact of differing software revenue sold separately on a subscription basis. The slight sequential decrease in devices and media were impacted by supply constraints related to certain products. In line with Jamie's comments, our business has had very limited backlog historically, equaling less than 5% of our reported quarterly revenue. Our backlog grew to $30 million at the end of the June quarter, with a significant order contribution from our hyperscale customers. In comparison, we reported fourth quarter revenues of $92.4 million, with a backlog of $14 million. And in the year ago, period reported revenues of $73.3 million, with a backlog of $2 million. While not all backlog represents potential revenue in the following quarter, when looked that in total, we believe the underlying business trends remain…

Thanks Mike. Demand is strong, evidenced by our growing backlog and continued customer order momentum during the quarter. We're seeing increasing opportunities to penetrate further into Fortune 500 enterprise accounts, with both our software and product solutions. The acquisition of Pivot3's surveillance business offers immediate access to over 500 new customers with whom we expect to see cross-selling opportunities across our portfolio of software and data storage solutions. With a significant milestone of our debt restructuring behind us, our new financial flexibility will allow us to responsibly grow our business. I would like to welcome the new members of the Quantum team from Pivot3 led by Ross Fujii, General Manager of the Strategic Markets Business Unit, the most recently served as Vice President of Engineering and Alliances at SolarWinds and Curt Wittich, who will be heading up Sales. In conclusion, I'm pleased with the execution our team has delivered in a difficult operating environment. The opportunities for long-term growth and transformation towards a more software-centric model remain intact. Quantum's focus remains on establishing and enhancing our position as a global leader in archive storage solutions. With that, we will now take any questions you may have. Operator?

Ladies and gentlemen, we will now have our question-and-answer session. [Operator Instructions] Our first question comes from Craig Ellis with B. Riley Securities. Please proceed with your question.

Yeah. Thanks for taking the question and guys, congratulations on the growth in the backlog. I just wanted to start with a clarification on the dynamics within product revenue in the first quarter and what you're seeing in the second quarter. So, for the first quarter, can you just provide a little bit more color on some of the things that were happening in primary storage since that was down more than what I'd expected? What did you see in government and some of the new customer segments? And then, with the second quarter, as we look ahead, what are some of the gives and takes at the primary and secondary level, then below that within guidance.

Hey, Craig. It’s a Jamie. I think we're seeing two things. Our cloud customers, particularly the 10 largest hyperscalers are doing really well and they're placing increasing orders on us. We're now engaged with six hyperscalers, whether we're in production or going through trials or late stage trials. So, we picked up a lot of momentum there, but we are predominantly selling them tape products, which are the most constraints. Now, our other historic legacy market, where we're the share leader in high-end post-production is media and entertainment now. Media and entertainment, while it's up from a year ago, and you see, our sales are up 22% from a year ago, they're still not at historic levels. So, we don't see people going this summer blockbusters and theaters and major movie production is still hampered by COVID and the Delta variance. So, we see a stronger media and entertainment business, but it is not at historic levels at this point. And I think it's even more trouble that in Europe and Asia than it is in the U.S. So, we have those two factors. If you look at our backlog, they balance each other out and we're selling at historic levels, but the mix is weighted towards hyperscalers, which are most constrained, but we did get news that the constraints we have in our tape components will be improving this quarter. We still gave a conservative estimate, not anticipating it to improve, but as we get into October, November and December, we are seeing -- we're getting indication from our suppliers that we're going to be in a much better position. Now, we're going to convert that into supply commitments. We don't have those commitments yet, but we're getting strong data from our suppliers that while they're not ready to say we'll be at historic levels, they see very significant improvement as we get into the fall and winter. And we should be shipping at much higher levels in that timeframe.

Got it. That's really helpful Jamie, thank you. And then the follow-up is to Mike. Mike, I think I got most of the guidance elements, but if you could provide any color on your expectations around gross margin? And then with respect to the near-term guidance and the full year guidance, you included Pivot3 in the near-term guidance, but didn't include it in the full year guidance. Why was that? And is it reasonable to think that just adjusting for the timing of the deal that the current quarter's revenue would be a reasonable proxy for what you could do going forward, or can some of the synergies that Jamie talked about in his prepared remarks start to hit as we get into fiscal third quarter or fiscal fourth quarter of the year there.

Yeah. So, related to how we've included Pivot3, as we move forward, we'll be integrating that business into Quantum. But in the near-term, we have good enough visibility to call it out in the current quarter, as far as how much we expected to contribute to the current quarter's revenues. So, we've called it out. But when we looked at the full year, we wanted to -- the statement we wanted to make was we were still standing by the full year guidance. And, of course, the range, whether it's 380 to 420 is really going to be dictated by how quickly does these supply constraints come back? How quickly can we ship against the backlog that we have already? So, that was kind of how we treated the Pivot3, as it related to our current quarter guidance and the annual guide.

Got it. And then just stay detailed related to the acquisition. I know it was some cash, some shares. Can you help us with the share elements so that we can get the share count cried in the bottom of our models?

Sure. Well, when you look at -- the total deal was $5 million in cash, $3 million in shares, and we had a little bit of a certain licensing fees that we paid. So that's how we got to the total of $8.9 million and purchase price. And the shares were based on the average price, five days before we closed. When we look at just the total share count, taking everything into account, we know that on a weighted average, we were 57.1 million for the quarter, ended 630 million. On a diluted basis, it was 68.6 million.

Got it. And I'll hop back in the queue. Thanks for the help guys.

Okay. Thanks Craig.

Thank you. Our next question comes from Nehal Chokshi with Northland Capital Markets. Please proceed with your question. Mr. Shops, you may proceed with your question.

Yeah. Sorry. I was on mute there. Nice booking strength and thank you for that clarity and transparency on the backlog and therefore clear booking strength here. So, looking at the guide, certainly implies that you remain supply constraints. The key question is then, given commentary around ongoing strong demand, can you comment on what you expect the bookings Q4 [ph] to look like and thus backlog at the end of September quarter, given, let's say, the midpoint of the current guidance.

Yeah. We would expect at this guidance level of $88 million, that we would continue to build the backlog, but at a much less rights than what we built this quarter.

Okay. And so that then would imply that your bookings would not be as strong in the September quarter as it was in the June quarter. Is that seasonality, or is that something else going on?

I mean, part of the strength that we saw this quarter was really the hyperscalers are placing big orders that go beyond the quarter. So, part of that is just getting in the queue that they're already in the queue. So, it's not necessarily indicative of lower demand per se.

Understood. Okay. And then, the software and subscription customers that grew more than 20% sequentially and then the bookings were up 2X. So that basically implies that you're getting more -- not only gross profit dollars, but actually revenue dollars per customer that converts from a CapEx to a subscription. Is that …

On average bigger deals. Yeah.

Okay. All right. And presumably, most of the software and subscription is going to be hitting primary storage, or is it evenly distributed between primary and secondary storage?

Yeah. Definitely today it's weighted very heavily towards primary, because that's the StorNext product that is selling as subscription. As we moved forward, and we move forward with a cold storage software as a service, we'll see more on the secondary side, but that is yet to be released.

Okay. All right. And seeing other software and subscription transition stories where it does actually impact the product revenue negatively. And it certainly seems like that could be the case with respect to primary storage. Yet, on the other hand here you are saying that look, it's actually growing, not only in gross profit dollars, but revenue dollars. So, can you just really say what's the bridge between the primary storage security decline versus you seeing the increase and naturally revenue dollars as these customers transitioned to software and subscription?

Yeah. I think what we're seeing -- we're really in the early stages of the transition. So, we did -- as in our prepared remarks, we noted that our revenue was impacted slightly by the subscription revenue, because it gets deferred -- it gets preferred out. So, we saw a little bit of -- I would expect to your early part of that question, that as it gets more scale, we'll have -- we'll see more [technical difficulty]

I'm not too sure if it's my connection. But you guys just cutting out. Can you hear me now?

Yeah. It's probably my connection. So, just finish my question -- answer and then I'll pass on the mic.

Okay.

So, it’s -- I mean, just to repeat my -- the response, yes, you would expect your revenue to be under pressure as you transition to a subscription model, recurring revenue subscription model. And we're seeing that, but it's still because we're at the very early stages, it's not -- it doesn't have a material impact on us at this point. So, we would expect as we get further into the transition to see more of that impact, but today it still is not at the level that it's significant.

Got it. Thank you very much.

Okay. Thanks, Nehal.

Thank you. Our next question comes from George Iwanyc with Oppenheimer. Please proceed with your question.

Thank you for taking my questions. So, maybe digging into the near-term guidance just a little bit more. So, if you normalize for the $2 million you expect for the three-year is still kind of pulling back, how much of that is the software transition? And then, is it still primarily primary storage and you’re better than near-term headwinds that you're projecting for?

Yeah. It’s Jamie. Hey, George. Almost off of the pullback is just not being able to get taped material. So, we can -- we could sell at historic or beyond historic levels. I mean, we are closing the contracts. It's just -- we have a higher mix of tape than primary, but it still meets all our sales objectives. I mean our sales team is meeting or beating their plans. We're just very restricted on how much tape libraries we can ship because we are missing a key component. So, we guided based on little or no improvement and actually some pullback in ability to get supplied this quarter. And then again, anticipating improvements in our fiscal Q3, but anticipating no improvements in this quarter. And if there are significant improvements, we'll probably get back on the phone and give some visibility there. But right now, we're modeling no improvements and even some more deterioration.

Okay. So, maybe with the positives you're seeing from the sales team, can you give us a sense of how you feel about the solution selling -- seller strategy at this point? How much activity do you have with, like the larger 500K plus deals? How much multi-product selling are you seeing right now?

Yeah. I mean, a couple updates and then we started with a single hyperscaler and we had ambitions of closing multiple. And at this point, I would say of the world's seven largest, we have six of them that are either customers deep -- actually they're all customers. And there are different levels of production purchasing. So, I would say we are hands down the share leader in the top 10 hyperscalers. When it comes to cold storage, we simply are ahead of everyone by a lot in that space. Now, our second ambition after winning the majority of hyperscaler business was can we press down into the webscalers? The companies that are big web properties, think of them the likes of an Instagram or a TikTok, those elk of companies. We found out probably about two to three weeks ago, we were awarded our first webscaler win to exabyte slightly over $5 million. So, we've now feel comfortable that our ambition to close webscalers, we've now closed one of the world's largest, and we have others in the queue. We have a product coming out later this month that clearly targets the webscalers and the Fortune 2000. And that will make -- that selling motion much more packaged and repeat. In addition of our six large hyperscalers, five of them have bought our software, monitoring software, storage software, data management software. So, I think that's going really well for us. We still remain the share leader in high-end post-production. It's just -- there's just less movie and television making them there at one time was. I think that'll come back, but right now it will remain COVID impacted. Now to balance that we had an ambition in video surveillance and we found the fastest way to gain share there…

All right. Just maybe one last question of looking at new opportunities. In your software subscription transition, you talked about potentially getting to a thousand customers in FY 2023. Do you feel you're on pace for that? And it's like ransomware was another area that I felt like there was an opportunity. I imagine the supply constraints are probably still -- none of being your ability to like full fledge go after that opportunity.

Let's choose the two out. I still think there's a strong ransomware opportunity for us. We actually have a very specific physical product that we're building for that. We have it in limited productions with a few hyperscalers who really need it. But we're going to make that more widely available towards the end of the year, but we're actually building some extremely unique intellectual property around rans of -- really physical ransomware protection. So, I feel really good about that piece and I think that's going to be really strong for us. You had another part of your question.

Yeah. You feel like you're on pace adding software and subscription customers.

Yeah. I think we're -- our baseline goal was 500 customers and my stretch goal is a thousand. I think we're on pace for the 500. I still think a thousands of stretch. And what we're going to need to do is move more of our products to subscription. Our CatDV product is not on subscription yet. DXi is not on subscription yet. And so, we've got to transform a few more products into the subscription model. And I think if we do that relatively quickly, I think, we'll get closer to that thousand number. And it's just a function of getting a sense of how willing are customers to move to the new model. So far, it's been pretty fluid with the StorNext transformation and the active scale transformation. And we just got to bring more of our products over to that model and I'm pushing our general managers to move to the subscription models more quickly.

Thank you.

Yeah.

Thank you. Our next question comes from Bruce Goldfarb with Lake Street Capital Markets. Please proceed with your question.

Hi. Thank you for taking my questions. Congratulations on your results. First one, in regard to a component shortage issues, do you anticipate any contract changes in terms of price or terms with your suppliers to try to alleviate some of the shortages?

No. This supplier had some price changes earlier in the year and they -- their products pretty structured in how they go about it. So, I don't see price changes. We've offered things like, hey, if we offered more money, could we move further up in the queue? Could we purchase more supply? I mean, obviously, you're going to ask all those questions. Is there -- would you get -- if you had most favored -- if you provided the best pricing, would you get the best supply continuity? And we tried all those ankles, but they're on allocation and it's not really a function of price. It's just a function of them getting these chips made in the volumes and need to make that, and you can spend more money, but it can't get people with COVID into factories faster, and there's a COVID outbreak in a factory. You can write all the checks you want and it does get a different result.

And then -- thank you. And then, do you get any difficulty in integrating Pivot3?

I don't. I think the sales synergy has been pretty great. What I mean by that is, if you look at our current customers, they're large government customers, large sports franchises, large entertainment companies, large banks and retail companies, all of whom use surveillance, right? There's surveillance in every stadium that we do, media and entertainment work with, the auto racing, sports team. And so, we are seeing really good synergy where we go to a sports team and say, look, we've been helping you with your production video for 20 years. Would you also trust us with your video surveillance? And that synergy is playing out really well. Whether it's theme parks, critical facilities, also our university work, as well as our work with national laboratories. I mean, they're all places that are heavy users of surveillance. So, I think the selling synergy is playing out in real-time. There is some integration work with IT system. We're in the middle of an ERP upgrade. So, we want to get our new ERP in place before we integrate some of these older ERP systems that we've required. And I think, it will take some work, but I don't -- I wouldn't characterize it as difficulty. I think it's going to be pretty straightforward. It also helps having been that -- I was the Chief Operating Officer responsible for supply chain support. I ran sales, sales engineering. And so, I just happened to have that unique insight that makes us one somewhat easier. Curt Wittich who run sales for that organization had been with Pivot3 for nine years. So, we just had a lot of insight into how that company runs and it certainly made the diligence quite a bit easier having worked there.

Great. Thank you. That’s all I had and congrats on all the progress.

Thank you.

Thank you. Our next question comes from David Duley with Steelhead Securities. Please proceed with your questions.

Yeah. Thanks for taking my questions. A couple of them. Could you just perhaps try to take a guess at what you thought the impact was of the supply constraints either in your June quarter or your September quarter?

Yeah. I think that the easiest way to characterize that, Dave, is when you look at our backlog, the $30 million of backlog that we carried out of the quarter, roughly a third of that had -- we had the parts, we could have shipped within the quarter. And then two-thirds of it is, is next quarter and beyond. So that's probably the easiest way to characterize that.

So, then, roughly 10 million bucks.

Yeah. Yeah.

Okay. And I guess when the supply is available to shift your -- all of your systems, would you expect this backlog to decline, or are you kind of in a new model where you're going to have better -- this facility, this business.

Go ahead, Mike.

No, go ahead, Jamie. You can.

Look, I think we expect the backlog in our traditional hardware based products to go back to the sub-$5 million level where it's insignificant. We don't talk about it. What we want to talk about is backlog in the form of RPO, TCV, and ARR. That's the backlog we want to talk about. We don't want to talk about, hey, I just can't ship tape libraries because I'm missing a component. So, I think the way we talk about just physical hardware backlog, which is essentially what we've got here, that will go back down to $2 million to $3 million level. And the backlog we want to grow is, again, our software subscription, which isn't really backlog. It's more RPO, ARR and a ratable revenue, deferred revenue. That's really what we want to build, not a hardware backlog.

Okay. And then, could you perhaps give us your kind of goals in the surveillance business now that you've got a platform and 500 customers, and you're doing $2 million a quarter, let's say, as your run rate. What kind of expectations can we have for this business over the next two to three years? It kind of double in size, or how should we think about the growth trajectory of the surveillance business for you guys?

Yeah. We do view it as growth business. Surveillance is a business that's growing it north of 20% CAGR per year. It's just -- we're putting more cameras, more higher fidelity cameras, more cameras with analytics, more cameras with facial recognition, more cameras with license plate recognition, using license plate recognition for billing purposes and drive throughs. And there's just many, many more applications and they all just consume more storage, consume more compute power. And we have a converged platform that does compute analytics and storage. And that's -- it's a hyper-converged platform which allows us to not just do storage, but actually do the analytics work, the GPU work, the computing work, as well as the storage work. And we view that as all growth and we're chasing growth there. We've got a strong brand. We've got a product that's been in the market for 15 years, very stable, 500 customers that include the world's biggest casinos, the world's biggest natural gas pipelines, the world's largest police departments, prison systems, some of the biggest smart city projects, large military and government installations. It really has a marquee customer base and we absolutely plan to grow that. And we plan to grow it globally. We do have the ability to sell Pivot3 a software-only, so we can be competitive in markets like India and China, where you really do want to separate the hardware and the software for both geopolitical reasons, but also pricing reasons using localized hardware. And I think we're really well-positioned for that. We have an amazing partnership with Lenovo who can help us do business in geographies like India and China. They can handle the hardware portions where we handle the software portions. So, I think we're really positioned to grow. We brought 10 very successful sales reps over with us in the acquisition. So, now we've got almost -- just shy of 15 surveillance specialists, that work around the world. And they're going to overlay the 200-plus sales people that we have today. So, I think there's a lot of synergies, both in our install base, and I think there's a huge amount of new customers that are coming in through partnerships like we have with Lenovo, as well as all of our security integrators. So, yeah, it's a growth business for us. It's always been a growth business. We were a little slow to build our organic technology and we had an opportunity to take years up our development by buying a stable, mature platform that was ready to go. So, it really worked out for us. So, yes, I think it's a business that in two to three years, we can more than double.

And just a final, Mike, question on gross margins in the back half of the year. It sounds like a conservative guidance in the September quarter. But the December quarter, I would guess you'll get to see a lot of -- the backlog move through into the sales funnel. What's the implications for gross margins I guess when that happens?

Yeah. I think we've got two factors, right? As the secondary business grows, and it's driven by the hyperscaler business, that's going to be gross margin headwind. And as we grow the primary business and grow the subscription revenue, recurring revenue, that will improve the margins. So, maybe they'll offset, as we go forward in the near-term. So, I'd expect plus or minus to be at the current level, maybe a little bit better, but only marginally.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Thanks, Dave.

Our next question comes from Steve Busch with Everglades Resources. Please proceed with your questions.

Hello, Jamie and Mike. And thank you for taking my call. Just want to say, hey, thanks for all your hard work. The last couple of years has been good to see Quantum's improvements. And so, my first kind of question on the component supplier, are they going to be able to keep up with any future growth that we have in that business, if they even just get back to the historical levels?

Yeah. They'll need to get to historic levels and beyond historic levels. Historically, they've always been able to do. The way we've worked with this supplier is they have a depot and we literally have never hit the bottom of the depot. We literally draw as much as we want from the depot. And we give them visibility. We give them forecasts. And it's been pretty rare almost -- when we've been drawing from this depot for over 20 years and we just have never drawn from it and hit the bottom. And now, that depot is routinely empty. So that tells me if they're able to get back to normal, they usually carry enough headroom and excess inventory that it can handle, when we get large orders or get growth. And I think they should be able to return to that. I don't know how quickly. I think it might be another few quarters until the depot just is overstock. But I think we'll see -- we're getting very strong words from them that they're going to see quite a bit of strengthening coming into the fall. And again, we're waiting on the numerical component commitments that they're going to make. But they're indicating to us that they'll be able to deliver much higher levels than we're getting today.

Okay. So, we don't need a second source, and there's the one anyway.

Yeah. There's no second source for this one.

Right. And so, is there a problem? You kind of mentioned, is it COVID-related?

Yeah. I mean, it's a single source supplier and when they -- and a lot of these components are made in Asia, when they have a COVID outbreak, they send everyone home. And those are mandated by the government. And so, you don't have the choice like Amazon does here to say, hey, even if people get COVID, we're going to keep shipping and keep people on the factories. Some governments say, look, we're just not going to give you that option. If there's a COVID outbreak, everyone has to go home for two weeks and you've got a factory that's an idol. And that -- that's really been the core issue. And so, it's a single supplier in a single country and it's a pretty rigid model.

Right. Okay. Thank you for that. So, I'm looking at your slide today. I think it's slide five of our presentation, which is very similar to the May Investor slide -- page 14, where it lists a bunch of the -- I'm assuming those are all customers, correct? In the May presentation, it's titled hyperscale and webscale for data archives, AWS, Microsoft, Google, Apple, Facebook, et cetera.

I think that's describing the elk of customers, but not meant to be an indication that those are Quantum customers. That's the type of -- in that category, but many of those are our customers as well.

Correct. Okay. So, are we able to do any kind of ransom -- you were discussing the ransomware, products with -- a little while ago. Are we growing with them? Are we partner with any companies to bring out, like say an AWS, all their customers for ransomware.

Yeah. The solution that we're going to be bringing the market, think of it towards the end of the year, was co-designed with one of the hyperscalers.

Okay. That's good to know. And what would you say the overall market, two, three years out for that kind of product is sizable?

The short answer is we don't know. Like I said, it's a product that we haven't brought to market yet. It's a product that no one else has in the market. I think we all know that the security and anti-ransomware market is large. What percentage of that market our products going to address is just yet to be seen. So, we just need a little time in market to understand, how it rests and remain. It's a different approach than anyone's taken before. It is completely unhackable because it's just literally -- the data is physically turned off and not on a network. There's just no way to get to it. No matter how many hackers are present or infiltrated the system, it's just literally -- unless you break into the building, you can't get us the data and that's just a different approach. And it's going to be interesting to see how it resonates. We've been talking to analysts and they're giving us a lot of really positive feedback about both the anti-ransomware and the cold storage as a service. And we are going to combine them. So that when you buy our cold storage solution, you can get it with the anti-ransomware package, which basically puts your data onto cold storage then fully disconnects it from any network where no robot or no technology could ever get to that data. So, we feel that combined package is going to be really compelling, but again, no one has anything like that on the market. We're excited about it, but I think we need a few quarters of sales to get a sense of how it resonates.

Right. Okay. Sounds good to me. All right. Thank you very much for your efforts.

Thank you. There are no further questions at this time. I'd like to turn the floor back over to management for any closing remarks.

Thanks everyone for joining us on today's call. I hope within the next several quarters, we won't need to discuss supply constraints anymore. Not feel good. We're getting pretty positive data. That should be behind us pretty soon here. With that, thanks everyone. And Mike will be sending out details about the investor conference in the October timeframe and we'll provide a lot of updates at that time. Thank you.

Ladies and gentlemen, this concludes today's webcast. You may now disconnect your lines at this time. Thank you for your participation and have a great day.
