Today on the program, we look at 3 00:00:06,800 --> 00:00:10,600 Speaker 1: the takeover offer for Manuka Honey Company and Kiwi Icon. 4 00:00:10,840 --> 00:00:15,160 Speaker 1: Comveta shareholders are being asked to vote in coming days 5 00:00:15,200 --> 00:00:18,440 Speaker 1: on a scheme of arrangement whereby they would receive eighty 6 00:00:18,480 --> 00:00:22,319 Speaker 1: cents a share. That's a sixty seven percent premium on 7 00:00:22,360 --> 00:00:25,840 Speaker 1: the last trading day before the scheme was announced. But 8 00:00:25,920 --> 00:00:29,000 Speaker 1: it's no secret that the Manuka Honey industry has got 9 00:00:29,040 --> 00:00:32,680 Speaker 1: its challenges. And in a moment, we'll hear from Bridget Coats, 10 00:00:33,040 --> 00:00:35,440 Speaker 1: the chair of Convetera, as to why she and her 11 00:00:35,479 --> 00:00:38,879 Speaker 1: board think taking the company private with this offer on 12 00:00:38,920 --> 00:00:42,960 Speaker 1: the table is the best way to secure Comveta's future. 13 00:00:43,080 --> 00:00:45,640 Speaker 2: Investing involves the risk you might lose the money you 14 00:00:45,680 --> 00:00:48,959 Speaker 2: start with. We recommend talking to a licensed financial advisor. 15 00:00:49,680 --> 00:00:53,519 Speaker 2: We also recommend reading product disclosure documents before deciding to invest. 16 00:00:53,760 --> 00:00:56,160 Speaker 2: Everything you're about to see and hear is current at 17 00:00:56,160 --> 00:00:57,040 Speaker 2: the time of recording. 18 00:00:57,440 --> 00:00:58,520 Speaker 1: Welcome to Shared Lunch. 19 00:00:58,560 --> 00:01:01,160 Speaker 3: Bridget, good day, good morning, and thank you very much 20 00:01:01,160 --> 00:01:01,600 Speaker 3: for having me. 21 00:01:02,600 --> 00:01:05,920 Speaker 1: Conveta is a household name here in New Zealand and 22 00:01:06,120 --> 00:01:11,280 Speaker 1: probably in Australia too. It's been around for nearly fifty years. 23 00:01:12,280 --> 00:01:15,440 Speaker 1: How has it changed since nineteen seventy four seventy five 24 00:01:15,680 --> 00:01:17,319 Speaker 1: when it first was founded. 25 00:01:17,120 --> 00:01:21,120 Speaker 3: Well in the early days, founded by two apiarists, Alan 26 00:01:21,160 --> 00:01:26,160 Speaker 3: Belgium and Claude Stratford, way back fifty years ago. At 27 00:01:26,160 --> 00:01:29,800 Speaker 3: the time the medicinal qualities and the anti bacteria qualities 28 00:01:29,800 --> 00:01:34,880 Speaker 3: of Manakhani were not known, and during that time they 29 00:01:34,959 --> 00:01:41,240 Speaker 3: gradually built the industry, consolidated their operations which we started 30 00:01:41,280 --> 00:01:46,959 Speaker 3: down in the typical area, and grew the company over 31 00:01:47,120 --> 00:01:51,400 Speaker 3: the fifty year period until today. We're now all over 32 00:01:51,440 --> 00:01:56,360 Speaker 3: the world and it's widely regarded as the premium honey 33 00:01:56,680 --> 00:01:58,520 Speaker 3: that's available worldwide. 34 00:01:59,080 --> 00:02:03,200 Speaker 1: Yes, because you're in Asia, China, North America, Europe, You've 35 00:02:03,200 --> 00:02:05,120 Speaker 1: got operations many places. 36 00:02:05,320 --> 00:02:05,639 Speaker 3: Yes. 37 00:02:05,960 --> 00:02:09,160 Speaker 1: So in terms of where do we stand or would 38 00:02:09,160 --> 00:02:10,960 Speaker 1: we sit in the world in terms of Manuka honey 39 00:02:10,960 --> 00:02:12,000 Speaker 1: from New Zealand. 40 00:02:12,280 --> 00:02:15,320 Speaker 3: Where the market leader, market leader from New Zealand and 41 00:02:15,680 --> 00:02:18,320 Speaker 3: Manca honey from New Zealand is only from New Zealand. 42 00:02:18,919 --> 00:02:22,360 Speaker 3: So we are the global leader if you think about 43 00:02:22,400 --> 00:02:25,160 Speaker 3: it in those terms. So yes, I mean there are 44 00:02:25,200 --> 00:02:29,919 Speaker 3: other other honey styles and other brands. But of course 45 00:02:30,600 --> 00:02:35,400 Speaker 3: we believe that and our many many customers worldwide believe 46 00:02:35,440 --> 00:02:37,120 Speaker 3: that this is a very special product. 47 00:02:37,720 --> 00:02:40,280 Speaker 1: It's also a challenging product to produce. From what I 48 00:02:40,320 --> 00:02:42,280 Speaker 1: can gather, can you tell us a little bit about 49 00:02:42,280 --> 00:02:45,000 Speaker 1: the fact that it's only a few weeks of the 50 00:02:45,080 --> 00:02:47,560 Speaker 1: year that the bees make the honey, it's in remote 51 00:02:47,560 --> 00:02:51,320 Speaker 1: places for someone to produce it and bring it to market, 52 00:02:51,520 --> 00:02:53,560 Speaker 1: it's quite a bit in it, i'd imagine. 53 00:02:53,120 --> 00:02:56,200 Speaker 3: Oh, there is a lot and as you can imagine, 54 00:02:56,200 --> 00:02:59,679 Speaker 3: it actually, in common with many other agricultural products, there 55 00:02:59,720 --> 00:03:02,840 Speaker 3: are various things to manage that you know, on the 56 00:03:02,840 --> 00:03:07,920 Speaker 3: supply side, and you can easily exceed the ability of 57 00:03:07,919 --> 00:03:10,680 Speaker 3: the market to absorb the product. If you have an 58 00:03:10,720 --> 00:03:14,200 Speaker 3: extremely strong season, for instance, or if you get a 59 00:03:14,200 --> 00:03:18,680 Speaker 3: lot of apiarists out there thinking that they're going to 60 00:03:18,720 --> 00:03:23,400 Speaker 3: sell sell product, sell Malica honey product to the companies, 61 00:03:23,440 --> 00:03:27,200 Speaker 3: to the export companies, then you can easily get an 62 00:03:27,240 --> 00:03:31,840 Speaker 3: oversupply situation. And that has been our history in the 63 00:03:31,880 --> 00:03:34,000 Speaker 3: last few years and very very much a part of 64 00:03:35,520 --> 00:03:37,720 Speaker 3: where our problems have arisen. 65 00:03:38,360 --> 00:03:41,760 Speaker 1: So if we look then at Manuka honey globally, the 66 00:03:41,920 --> 00:03:46,640 Speaker 1: challenges over supply, pricing and being volatile just took us 67 00:03:46,680 --> 00:03:48,640 Speaker 1: through some of the things that have happened there. 68 00:03:48,920 --> 00:03:53,360 Speaker 3: Yes, we had to an increase in hives to up 69 00:03:53,440 --> 00:03:57,040 Speaker 3: to a million hives from the normal level of approximately 70 00:03:57,080 --> 00:04:00,880 Speaker 3: five hundred thousand, which and that was took place in 71 00:04:00,880 --> 00:04:05,960 Speaker 3: a very rapid time frame, left us left the industry 72 00:04:06,160 --> 00:04:10,360 Speaker 3: not just us, vulnerable to down a pressure on price 73 00:04:11,520 --> 00:04:18,039 Speaker 3: and to what you might describe as excess competition discounting 74 00:04:18,040 --> 00:04:21,720 Speaker 3: in the marketplace, promises about the quality of the of 75 00:04:22,080 --> 00:04:26,320 Speaker 3: the product that weren't correct, you know, just generally sort 76 00:04:26,360 --> 00:04:30,440 Speaker 3: of typical when you get an oversupply situation, everybody tends 77 00:04:30,480 --> 00:04:36,359 Speaker 3: to lose lose their maybe their legitimacy and start to 78 00:04:36,440 --> 00:04:40,680 Speaker 3: really try and move volume because they're stuck with excess inventory, 79 00:04:40,720 --> 00:04:45,040 Speaker 3: and it becomes a bit of a lex discipline. Is 80 00:04:45,400 --> 00:04:47,600 Speaker 3: really really weird, how you describe it. 81 00:04:47,920 --> 00:04:50,320 Speaker 1: So, what are the consequences then for the industry with 82 00:04:50,760 --> 00:04:52,760 Speaker 1: this sort of thing, because it's been a few years 83 00:04:52,800 --> 00:04:55,840 Speaker 1: that this has sort of been happening, hasn't it. 84 00:04:56,080 --> 00:05:00,960 Speaker 3: Yes, it has, but things have fortunately changed significantly and 85 00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:04,119 Speaker 3: we're now back down to a more normal, high level, 86 00:05:04,520 --> 00:05:09,560 Speaker 3: more sustainable our prices have adjusted downwards but are stabilizing 87 00:05:10,160 --> 00:05:14,720 Speaker 3: so unit these things do go and go on cycles, 88 00:05:14,800 --> 00:05:19,360 Speaker 3: and so one has to if you're running a company 89 00:05:19,400 --> 00:05:21,720 Speaker 3: like Conveter, you have to be very very conscious of 90 00:05:21,760 --> 00:05:28,200 Speaker 3: the cycles and adjusting to your strategies to suit the 91 00:05:28,240 --> 00:05:29,480 Speaker 3: different phases of the cycle. 92 00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:33,960 Speaker 1: Yes, because Commuta has had significant financial pressure over the 93 00:05:34,000 --> 00:05:37,960 Speaker 1: last little while, and obviously that's why the board and 94 00:05:38,000 --> 00:05:40,680 Speaker 1: the management are thinking now that you know, we need 95 00:05:40,720 --> 00:05:43,040 Speaker 1: to think of something else in terms of the future 96 00:05:43,040 --> 00:05:46,240 Speaker 1: of the company. And obviously with scheme of arrangement for 97 00:05:46,279 --> 00:05:50,800 Speaker 1: shareholders thinking about the vote coming up. What has the 98 00:05:52,760 --> 00:05:56,200 Speaker 1: management and board done to try and improve the situation 99 00:05:56,480 --> 00:05:59,800 Speaker 1: financially to so that you know you can survive, that 100 00:05:59,839 --> 00:06:01,719 Speaker 1: you can keep trading. 101 00:06:01,920 --> 00:06:05,880 Speaker 3: Yes, we started, I think two and a half years 102 00:06:05,920 --> 00:06:11,280 Speaker 3: ago seeking ways of recapitalizing the company. There were a 103 00:06:11,360 --> 00:06:14,080 Speaker 3: number of approaches. Some would some were debt based, some 104 00:06:14,120 --> 00:06:18,920 Speaker 3: were equity based, some were take private options such as 105 00:06:18,960 --> 00:06:21,599 Speaker 3: the one that has that that's in front of us 106 00:06:21,640 --> 00:06:26,520 Speaker 3: at the moment, uh and we have been working extremely 107 00:06:26,560 --> 00:06:29,440 Speaker 3: hard to find ways of strengthening up the balance sheet, 108 00:06:29,480 --> 00:06:35,360 Speaker 3: positioning the company for growth, being being restructuring the company 109 00:06:35,720 --> 00:06:41,280 Speaker 3: taking cost out, reducing staff, which we have done significantly globally, 110 00:06:42,120 --> 00:06:47,719 Speaker 3: and getting ourselves into a fighting fit situation. But having 111 00:06:48,000 --> 00:06:51,200 Speaker 3: having done all that and said all that, the situation 112 00:06:51,360 --> 00:06:54,159 Speaker 3: is still not where it needs to be right. 113 00:06:54,279 --> 00:06:56,440 Speaker 1: So as much as if it's many, if it's were 114 00:06:56,440 --> 00:07:00,120 Speaker 1: put into the reset, it can't actually be everything to 115 00:07:00,560 --> 00:07:03,200 Speaker 1: solve the issues we have. 116 00:07:03,880 --> 00:07:08,479 Speaker 3: That's true, and the necessity is that we bring fresh 117 00:07:08,480 --> 00:07:11,200 Speaker 3: capital into the company to strengthen up the balance sheet 118 00:07:11,280 --> 00:07:15,960 Speaker 3: position the company for growth, and that is what the 119 00:07:16,120 --> 00:07:18,080 Speaker 3: scheme is intended to do. 120 00:07:18,160 --> 00:07:23,280 Speaker 1: Of course, also looking at the scheme, that is before 121 00:07:23,360 --> 00:07:27,320 Speaker 1: shareholders obviously before they make any decision that they want 122 00:07:27,360 --> 00:07:29,640 Speaker 1: to know what is happening with the trading. You did 123 00:07:29,680 --> 00:07:32,760 Speaker 1: put out a quarter one update to the market a 124 00:07:32,760 --> 00:07:35,440 Speaker 1: few days ago. Now, can you just took me through 125 00:07:36,240 --> 00:07:39,120 Speaker 1: how things are fearing at the moment. Yes. 126 00:07:39,960 --> 00:07:43,520 Speaker 3: As part of the scheme documents, we did have an 127 00:07:43,560 --> 00:07:47,920 Speaker 3: independent reviewer, Grant Samuel, look at the company. Provided a 128 00:07:48,040 --> 00:07:51,320 Speaker 3: lot of information for shareholders which is included in the 129 00:07:51,520 --> 00:07:57,120 Speaker 3: scheme documents and can be there's endless information there the 130 00:07:57,120 --> 00:08:01,040 Speaker 3: shareholders to absorb, which assessed both the trading conditions, the 131 00:08:01,240 --> 00:08:07,840 Speaker 3: balance situation, debt requirements, etc. And gave shareholders the ability 132 00:08:07,880 --> 00:08:11,800 Speaker 3: to make the decision. And this is of course what 133 00:08:11,840 --> 00:08:16,400 Speaker 3: we are asking shareholders now to read these documents, consider 134 00:08:16,480 --> 00:08:20,760 Speaker 3: the situation, consider their own personal circumstances, and vote. 135 00:08:21,080 --> 00:08:24,640 Speaker 1: So with that quarter one update, you talked about the 136 00:08:24,680 --> 00:08:27,920 Speaker 1: fact that there had been a slight sort of uptake 137 00:08:27,960 --> 00:08:31,440 Speaker 1: in terms of sales. I think it's kind of sounded 138 00:08:31,440 --> 00:08:34,760 Speaker 1: a little bit mixed, because obviously the different markets have 139 00:08:34,840 --> 00:08:38,480 Speaker 1: their own indiosyncrasies, but you're sort of confident that things 140 00:08:38,520 --> 00:08:41,280 Speaker 1: are I don't know if stabilizing the right word, but 141 00:08:41,320 --> 00:08:45,280 Speaker 1: it wasn't as perhaps as dire as maybe had been 142 00:08:45,320 --> 00:08:45,880 Speaker 1: in the past. 143 00:08:46,679 --> 00:08:49,720 Speaker 3: The key message from the announcement was that we're trading 144 00:08:49,840 --> 00:08:54,839 Speaker 3: in line with information that was given in the scheme arrangements. 145 00:08:55,040 --> 00:08:58,280 Speaker 3: We have put a forecast into the document. In fact, 146 00:08:58,320 --> 00:09:01,840 Speaker 3: there's a forecast for both the current year and the 147 00:09:01,880 --> 00:09:02,360 Speaker 3: next year. 148 00:09:02,559 --> 00:09:04,840 Speaker 1: So if we look at the Grant Samuel, the Independent 149 00:09:05,360 --> 00:09:11,120 Speaker 1: Advisor's recommendation, it took the offer on the table. First off, 150 00:09:11,160 --> 00:09:13,680 Speaker 1: I'll say the offer on the table from Florenz. The 151 00:09:13,679 --> 00:09:16,000 Speaker 1: bidder is eighty cents per share. 152 00:09:16,080 --> 00:09:16,320 Speaker 3: Right. 153 00:09:17,080 --> 00:09:20,320 Speaker 1: The Grant Samuel report tooks about a range of between 154 00:09:20,360 --> 00:09:24,080 Speaker 1: seventy and ninety two. So you're thinking that it's sort 155 00:09:24,080 --> 00:09:27,640 Speaker 1: of at the eighty cents is close to the midpoint 156 00:09:27,720 --> 00:09:30,200 Speaker 1: of that range as the advisor is talking about. 157 00:09:30,200 --> 00:09:34,120 Speaker 3: Right, Yes, exactly right. And you know, we are very 158 00:09:34,120 --> 00:09:39,600 Speaker 3: conscious that schaholders have different different preferences. Some require liquidity. 159 00:09:40,120 --> 00:09:42,600 Speaker 3: It's been quite difficult to get liquidity in the company, yes, 160 00:09:42,800 --> 00:09:45,000 Speaker 3: because it has been trading at a very low level. 161 00:09:45,000 --> 00:09:47,720 Speaker 3: As you know, before the offer it was forty seven cents. 162 00:09:48,679 --> 00:09:53,520 Speaker 1: If the scheme were not to be successful, what where 163 00:09:53,520 --> 00:09:54,959 Speaker 1: does that leave Conveter. 164 00:09:56,559 --> 00:10:01,160 Speaker 3: With a balance sheet situation that needs addressing. That's the 165 00:10:01,200 --> 00:10:02,719 Speaker 3: long and the short of it. That we still have 166 00:10:03,480 --> 00:10:07,280 Speaker 3: the let's say, the situation that led us to recommending 167 00:10:07,320 --> 00:10:10,959 Speaker 3: this to shareholders is still the same as it was before. 168 00:10:11,040 --> 00:10:15,600 Speaker 3: So we would need to find quickly ways of addressing 169 00:10:15,679 --> 00:10:17,800 Speaker 3: the balance sheet weaknesses that we have. 170 00:10:18,720 --> 00:10:19,640 Speaker 1: Do you think you could. 171 00:10:20,480 --> 00:10:23,080 Speaker 3: It's the responsibility of the board to do absolutely everything 172 00:10:23,120 --> 00:10:24,000 Speaker 3: that it possibly can. 173 00:10:24,360 --> 00:10:27,240 Speaker 1: So it sound like quite heard, although. 174 00:10:27,520 --> 00:10:31,480 Speaker 3: You know, if there's things were easy, it would have 175 00:10:31,520 --> 00:10:32,640 Speaker 3: happened before now. 176 00:10:32,800 --> 00:10:36,560 Speaker 1: So yeah, exactly. So this is the offer that's on 177 00:10:36,600 --> 00:10:43,199 Speaker 1: the table from Florenes is the only credible, superior offer 178 00:10:43,240 --> 00:10:46,079 Speaker 1: that you that that shaholders really can consider it this time. 179 00:10:46,640 --> 00:10:51,320 Speaker 3: Yes, we have not had any offer from other bidders 180 00:10:51,360 --> 00:10:55,880 Speaker 3: of any kind, shareholders or non shareholders. As I say, 181 00:10:56,240 --> 00:10:59,560 Speaker 3: in the past, we have had three or four other 182 00:10:59,600 --> 00:11:05,880 Speaker 3: bidders who've looked at the company and considered offering to 183 00:11:05,920 --> 00:11:11,400 Speaker 3: buy part or all of the company, and for one 184 00:11:11,440 --> 00:11:15,040 Speaker 3: reason and another they have not proceded. So that is 185 00:11:15,800 --> 00:11:18,800 Speaker 3: that we have Florence. Their Florends offer is the only 186 00:11:19,640 --> 00:11:21,520 Speaker 3: offer on the table at the moment, correct. 187 00:11:21,679 --> 00:11:25,240 Speaker 1: So if we look at Florenz, then it's as I 188 00:11:25,320 --> 00:11:28,160 Speaker 1: understand it, a number of companies and brands in the 189 00:11:28,200 --> 00:11:31,640 Speaker 1: health and wellness kind of or arena. It's private. And 190 00:11:31,760 --> 00:11:35,600 Speaker 1: they even have a Minuca honey brand, we'd a spoon 191 00:11:35,640 --> 00:11:39,600 Speaker 1: I think, which is an organic one. So whyhere does 192 00:11:39,640 --> 00:11:43,120 Speaker 1: the board see Conveter going If this is successful, this 193 00:11:43,240 --> 00:11:46,960 Speaker 1: is this vote, and Florence does take over for eighty 194 00:11:47,000 --> 00:11:50,000 Speaker 1: cents a share, what future do you think it will 195 00:11:50,040 --> 00:11:52,280 Speaker 1: have for Conveter and under that arrangement? 196 00:11:53,760 --> 00:11:56,079 Speaker 3: So first, first of all, the intention is that they 197 00:11:56,160 --> 00:11:59,640 Speaker 3: that Florenz should take the company private. So there that 198 00:11:59,720 --> 00:12:02,079 Speaker 3: would one hundred percent owned by them. But one thing 199 00:12:02,120 --> 00:12:04,360 Speaker 3: I think we can be certain of is that, you know, 200 00:12:04,440 --> 00:12:09,000 Speaker 3: Manica Converter, as the market leader in Manakahney, has a 201 00:12:09,080 --> 00:12:12,719 Speaker 3: very strong market position, a very attractive market position in it. 202 00:12:12,920 --> 00:12:16,559 Speaker 3: So one would imagine that they would that. As far 203 00:12:16,600 --> 00:12:23,040 Speaker 3: as customers and and our current home employees, I think 204 00:12:23,040 --> 00:12:26,680 Speaker 3: they can be confident about the future. Although, as I say, 205 00:12:26,679 --> 00:12:31,040 Speaker 3: that is entirely up to up to Florens and how 206 00:12:31,080 --> 00:12:33,760 Speaker 3: they how they see it in the longer term. 207 00:12:34,280 --> 00:12:36,920 Speaker 1: But in terms of the brand, I mean it's still 208 00:12:37,080 --> 00:12:39,839 Speaker 1: New Zealand owned. Is that something that was important? 209 00:12:42,120 --> 00:12:44,520 Speaker 3: Yes, I mean we at the end of the day, 210 00:12:44,559 --> 00:12:48,080 Speaker 3: we're responsible to shareholders and we're maximizing shareholder value and 211 00:12:50,080 --> 00:12:53,079 Speaker 3: that is the primary driver for the board. 212 00:12:53,520 --> 00:12:57,600 Speaker 1: This is a pretty critical decision for Conveter shareholders, whether 213 00:12:57,640 --> 00:13:00,319 Speaker 1: they vote, whether they decide to vote that the there's 214 00:13:00,360 --> 00:13:01,320 Speaker 1: a bit at stake here. 215 00:13:01,520 --> 00:13:02,440 Speaker 3: Yes, what do. 216 00:13:02,360 --> 00:13:07,640 Speaker 1: You say to longtime loyal investors who have been watching 217 00:13:07,720 --> 00:13:10,520 Speaker 1: the stock for a while, have you know, perhaps made 218 00:13:10,559 --> 00:13:13,040 Speaker 1: losses and the like. What do you say to them? 219 00:13:13,960 --> 00:13:16,800 Speaker 3: I would like to give them an assurance that the 220 00:13:16,800 --> 00:13:20,280 Speaker 3: board has done absolutely every single possible thing it could 221 00:13:20,320 --> 00:13:24,040 Speaker 3: have done. To address the situation. The situation has arisen 222 00:13:24,640 --> 00:13:27,199 Speaker 3: in large part because of what's happened in the industry 223 00:13:28,040 --> 00:13:30,840 Speaker 3: and with some of the precious globally, and in some 224 00:13:31,040 --> 00:13:34,520 Speaker 3: measure because of the boards not reacting quickly enough to 225 00:13:34,679 --> 00:13:39,120 Speaker 3: the situation as it changed. So certainly, except our fair 226 00:13:39,160 --> 00:13:43,199 Speaker 3: share of our responsibility for that rich what does. 227 00:13:43,040 --> 00:13:44,920 Speaker 1: The scheme offer shareholders? 228 00:13:44,920 --> 00:13:48,199 Speaker 3: In a nutshell, the shareholders are being offered an alternative 229 00:13:48,760 --> 00:13:51,520 Speaker 3: for their the value of their shares being paid eighty 230 00:13:51,600 --> 00:13:54,199 Speaker 3: cents a share. Should the scheme be approved, of course 231 00:13:54,600 --> 00:13:58,960 Speaker 3: by a seventy five percent majority, they will receive that 232 00:13:59,080 --> 00:14:03,959 Speaker 3: money and they will be and there she Is will 233 00:14:04,000 --> 00:14:08,240 Speaker 3: be removed from the market, and if they choose not to, 234 00:14:09,240 --> 00:14:14,079 Speaker 3: then we will continue operations and we will be working 235 00:14:14,080 --> 00:14:16,400 Speaker 3: hard as the board to find fine alternatives. 236 00:14:16,920 --> 00:14:19,760 Speaker 1: Thank you Bridget for joining us today.
