This Go IPO deal is the biggest achievement since the business' inception and underscores the immense value our consulting business presents. Additionally, we have an incremental three Go IPO deals that are slated to close over the next several months, and with an optimistic outlook on the U.S. IPO market for Japanese companies, we look forward to the completion of these deals that are set to further strengthen our financial results. We also shifted toward proposing multi-year software licensing agreements to our customers starting in 2024, and these agreements corresponded to increased revenues in our Software Related Business. 2024 is set to be the strongest year in HeartCore history, and we remain committed to retaining this upward trend for future quarters and years ahead.
