The supplemental operating data includes gross merchandise volumes and should not be considered a substitute for or superior to GAAP results.</font></p>

<p style="line-height:117%;margin:0in 0in .0001pt 5.05pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:9.5pt;line-height:117%;">Additionally, our guidance for Q2 fiscal year 2016 adjusted EBITDA and diluted EPS for, one; acquisition costs, impairment of goodwill and long-lived assets, business realignment expenses, and gains or losses from business dispositions; and two, for stock-based compensation costs, which we estimate to be approximately $3.5 million to $4 million for the second quarter of fiscal year 2016.

<p style="line-height:117%;margin:0in 0in .0001pt 5.05pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:9.5pt;line-height:117%;">Liquidity Services reported Q1 results in line with our GMV guidance and below the guidance range on adjusted EBITDA, due to weaker than anticipated volumes and pricing in our DoD business. Our Q1 results were dampened by sharply lower commodity prices which have adversely affected the pricing and volume of transaction in our DoD scrap and energy marketplaces.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:9.5pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>
<p style="line-height:117%;margin:0in 0in .0001pt 5.05pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:9.5pt;line-height:117%;">We are proud of the high-quality service we continue to provide clients and buyers in every major industry sector. We continue to expand our commercial and municipal government client base as our marketplace and integrated services are highly relevant to organizations seeking to manage total supply chain cost in the current business climate.</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:9.5pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt 5.05pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:9.5pt;">During the quarter, we signed over 30 new commercial accounts based on the strength of our asset management, valuation and sales solutions. Our state and local marketplace also added over 200 new agency clients including continued expansion in the Pacific Northwest and Canada.</font></p>

<p style="line-height:117%;margin:0in 0in .0001pt 5.05pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:9.5pt;line-height:117%;">Our vision is to build a better future for how Surplus assets are managed, valued and sold, which translates into a multi-billion dollar business opportunity. Fueled by this goal, we have continued to advance the design and development of our LiquidityOne platform, services and analytical tools to empower our clients to maximize bottom-line returns and elevate the reverse supply chain into a high-performing business function throughout the globe.</font></p>

<p style="line-height:117%;margin:0in 0in .0001pt 5.05pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:9.5pt;line-height:117%;">We&#146;re also busy engineering a superior buyer experience to make it more convenient to search, find and buy any asset on our marketplaces. We continue to make good progress with this transformational investment program and expect our first marketplace to launch on our new platform this summer.</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:9.5pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>
<p style="line-height:117%;margin:0in 0in .0001pt 5.05pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:9.5pt;line-height:117%;">Additionally, we&#146;ve identified new business opportunities centered on our emerging capabilities and we are continuing to allocate time and investment to bring these to market.

<p style="line-height:117%;margin:0in 0in .0001pt 5.05pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:9.5pt;line-height:117%;">Thanks, Bill. We finished the first quarter of fiscal year 2016 at the midpoint of our guidance in GMV, but below guidance in adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EPS, primarily due to an unanticipated mix shift in property flows and lower than forecasted commodity prices in our DoD scrap business. We saw a strong performance in our state and local government business as we increased our number of sellers and continue to expand into the Western United States and Canada.</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:9.5pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>
<p style="line-height:117%;margin:0in 0in .0001pt 5.05pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:9.5pt;line-height:117%;">Next,&nbsp;I will comment on our first quarter results. Total GMV was $151.4 million. GMV in our GovDeals or state and local government marketplace increased to $52.1 million or 14.6% as we continue to add new clients, bringing total clients to over 8,300, and thus further penetrating the $3 billion state and local government market.</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:9.5pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>
<p style="line-height:117%;margin:0in 0in .0001pt 5.05pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:9.5pt;line-height:117%;">GMV in our DoD marketplaces decreased to $29 million or 42.6% as a result of decreased property flows from the DoD and lower commodity prices particularly in our Scrap business. GMV in our commercial marketplaces decreased to $70.3 million or 52.9% as a result of the sale of the Jacobs Trading Company business, the wind down of the NESA refurbishment business in Canada and reduced product flows in our retail and energy verticals.</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:9.5pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>
<p style="line-height:117%;margin:0in 0in .0001pt 5.05pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:9.5pt;line-height:117%;">Total revenue was $65.9 million. Technology and operations expenses decreased 15.1% to $22.8 million for the first quarter primarily due to decreases in staff and temporary wages, including performance -based compensation, primarily as a result of the sale of the Jacobs Trading business and wind down of the NESA business. As a percentage of revenue, these expenses increased to 34.6% from 21.5%, primarily due to the decrease in revenue discussed above.</font></p>

<p style="line-height:117%;margin:0in 0in .0001pt 5.05pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:9.5pt;line-height:117%;">Sales and marketing expenses decreased 8.9% to $9.5 million for the first quarter, primarily due to decreases in staff wages, including performance -based compensation. As a percentage of revenue, these expenses increased to 14.4% from 8.3%, primarily due to the decrease in revenue.</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:9.5pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>
<p style="line-height:117%;margin:0in 0in .0001pt 5.05pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:9.5pt;line-height:117%;">General and administrative expenses increased 5 .7 % to $10.1 million for the first quarter, which is not significant. As a percentage of revenue, general and administrative expenses increased to 15.3% from 7 .6%, primarily due to the decrease in revenue.</font></p>

Adjusted net income decreased 130.5%(sic) [130.6%] to negative $3.5 million for the first quarter. Adjusted diluted earnings per share decreased 130% to negative $0.11 for the first quarter based on approximately 30.5 million diluted weighted average shares outstanding.</font></p>

We continue to have a strong debt -free balance sheet.</font></p>

<p style="line-height:117%;margin:0in 0in .0001pt 5.05pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:9.5pt;line-height:117%;">Good morning. We remain focused on our 2016 strategic investments in our LiquidityOne transformation initiative to enhance the capabilities of our marketplace platforms, design and build new service offerings, and further our leadership position in how organizations manage and sell assets.</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:9.5pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>
<p style="line-height:110%;margin:0in 0in .0001pt 5.05pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:9.5pt;line-height:110%;">While, we fund and build this next-generation platform and integrate our core business solutions for both full- service and self-service capabilities, we will continue to support our as-is business on legacy systems. We expect to incur increased cost during this phase throughout 2016 and 2017, with project levels varying quarterly. In the second quarter 2016, we anticipate spending to be approximately $2 million in our LiquidityOne program.</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:9.5pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>
<p style="line-height:117%;margin:0in 0in .0001pt 5.05pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:9.5pt;line-height:117%;">Looking ahead, as we stated last quarter, we are resetting portions of our business including our DoD Surplus program to adjust for the new pricing and the continued drop in Scrap commodity prices, in addition to the persistent softness in the energy sector. As these headwinds continue, we expect to have periods of uneven financial performance as we execute our strategy.</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:9.5pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>
<p style="line-height:117%;margin:0in 0in .0001pt 5.05pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:9.5pt;line-height:117%;">As we look specifically to the second quarter, our comparative results reflect sale of the Jacobs Trading subsidiary, and cross currents that many have varying effects on the results. We increased spending in LiquidityOne for integration and development of new commercial capabilities, plus the significant downturn in commodity prices, which have reduced pricing and volume in our energy marketplace and our DoD scrap program, are expected to continue to negatively affect results as evidenced by&#160; January&nbsp;Scrap commodity pricing trends.</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:9.5pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>
<p style="line-height:117%;margin:0in 0in .0001pt 5.05pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:9.5pt;line-height:117%;">We also typically experienced a seasonal low quarter for commercial capital assets. However, we anticipate our second quarter to be positively impacted by seasonality in our retail market and a more favorable mix under our DoD Surplus contract, as we also continue the growth in our state and municipal marketplace.</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:9.5pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>
<p style="line-height:117%;margin:0in 0in .0001pt 5.05pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:9.5pt;line-height:117%;">Management guidance for the next fiscal quarter is as follows. We expect GMV for the second quarter to range from $140 million to $160 million. We expect adjusted EBITDA to range from a negative $3 million to a positive $2 million, and adjusted earnings per diluted share to range from minus $0.11 to breakeven. This guidance assumes that we have an average fully diluted number of shares outstanding for the quarter of 30.5 million.</font></p>

Bill, look,&nbsp;I kind of want to just strip out all of the macro headwinds and some of&#160; the one-offs here in the divestitures and focus just on the underlying commercial business for a second. So, maybe really just two questions for me. One, first, can you just talk about which verticals that you&#146;re adding new partners in, since you talked about the 30 new commercial accounts? Just to have an understanding of kind of how the mix shift is evolving and whether or not capital assets versus a more traditional retail vent?</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt 5.05pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:9.5pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>
<p style="line-height:117%;margin:0in 0in .0001pt 5.05pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:9.5pt;line-height:117%;">And then secondarily, as you go through this transition,&nbsp;I know that you&#146;ve talked historically about your energy partners getting excited about being able to see all of the assets in one sort of centralized location, if you will. But can you may be just talk about; if you&#146;ve seen any difficulties in adding buyers or new partners as you kind of work through this? And if you had any client churn as a result of this ongoing process and how people are sort of responding to the fact that you guys are in a transition period right now? Thanks.</font></p>

<p style="line-height:112%;margin:0in 0in .0001pt 5.05pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:9.5pt;line-height:112%;">First, the business is more diversified than it&#146;s ever been. The commercial market is responding to the offerings in retail. The client wins, we referenced include a number of manufacturers who are looking for Liquidity to play a broad role in helping to manage the flow of return goods from the point of sale, as it could be physical stores or from distribution centers that conduct online sales, both in high value home improvement categories and housewares, consumer electronics, those are key opportunities for us. And we think we&#146;ll continue to provide a suite of services for manufacturers that have been very relevant for them as they try to outsource production outside of United States and still have an efficient way to protect their brand with customers after the product hits the point of sale.</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:9.5pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>
<p style="line-height:112%;margin:0in 0in .0001pt 5.05pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:9.5pt;line-height:112%;">We have seen as all of you probably have noted in your coverage, a major change in the macro environment and the energy supply chain, energy prices are near 10-year lows, oil and &#150; that&#146;s driving reassessment of capital expenditures. And undoubtedly that affected results in the December&nbsp;quarter. Having said that, we continue to&#160; add clients in the energy vertical. They&#146;re looking for advice; they&#146;re looking for valuation services. And I think&#160; they&#145;re just into the new normal of where we are with commodity prices. So we think over time, Dan, there will be some activity in the energy vertical and we&#146;re very well positioned to work with these clients, not just in the United States, but globally.</font></p>

<p style="line-height:112%;margin:0in 0in .0001pt 5.05pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:9.5pt;line-height:112%;">On the semiconductor space, it&#146;s an area we continue to expand. We noted on the last call, we&#146;ve had good activity in Asia Pacific region that continues for us. We&#146;re investing in our Asia Pacific sales and account management teams to be a player in the Asia Pacific region. Our healthcare biopharma business is continuing to add new clients, some of these are penetrating existing accounts, in other cases, we&#146;re winning RFP situations. I think when we go to RFP, we&#146;re very well positioned. We have the depth of service and scale that few organizations have, and when that&#146;s evaluated thoughtfully, we&#146;re winning on a consistent basis.</font></p>

<p style="line-height:117%;margin:0in 0in .0001pt 5.05pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:9.5pt;line-height:117%;">I think the automotive market is another area we&#146;re seeing new client wins, both in and outside of the United States. There are supply chains that are repositioning as product lines change, as end -consumer markets change, and we&#146;re helping on some very significant transactions. That will be multi-year projects in the automotive space. So it&#146;s really across the board.</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:9.5pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>
<p style="line-height:122%;margin:0in 0in .0001pt 5.05pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:9.5pt;line-height:122%;">On the buyer side, we&#146;re all about making it easy and convenient for buyers to engage with their platforms on multiple devices to find through a consistent taxonomy, what they&#146;re looking for and to conveniently settle their transactions with us.</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:9.5pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>
<p style="line-height:117%;margin:0in 0in .0001pt 5.05pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:9.5pt;line-height:117%;">So the front-end investment on the marketplace is unfolding. We will launch our first marketplace on the new Liquidity One platform this summer. We&#146;ll have additional enhancements to that platform and sort of a waterfall approach to the next marketplace introductions thereafter. We&#146;re also investing in our ERP and financial settlement back-end systems to make that scalable and secure for global commerce transactions, multinational transactions. So, we think the investment we&#146;re making in the platform will be critical to sustaining our innovation and market leadership in this large global reverse supply chain industry.</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:9.5pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>
<p style="line-height:117%;margin:0in 0in .0001pt 5.05pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:9.5pt;line-height:117%;">We&#160; have invited clients to participate in that process. We think that that voice of customers is important to the design and engineering of new products and services. We think people are enthusiastic about these investments we&#146;re making. But they&#145;re not simplistic; it&#146;s a complex engineering set of projects. And that&#146;s why we think it enhances our competitive advantage over time. But it does require a long -term outlook, and that&#146;s the way we&#146;ve always approached our business since we opened our doors.</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:9.5pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>
<p style="line-height:117%;margin:0in 0in .0001pt 5.05pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:9.5pt;line-height:117%;">So,&nbsp;I think we&#146;re seeing good receptivity both on the client side and on the buyer side. And we&#146;re excited about the first installments of the LiquidityOne investment as we approach the summer.</font></p>

And then on the buyer side, any churn would probably be sort of during your waterfall implementation of the new platform starting this summer and it doesn&#146;t sound like you&#146;re forecasting any real impact from churn from the new platform implementation? </font></p>

I think the business is clearly affected year-over-year by &#150; where we are in certain industry verticals. I think we mentioned our DoD scrap business has seen really kind of an acceleration of commodity price declines as we move through the end of last quarter, even into the current quarter in January. And the energy business is down significantly year-over-year, just because of the sentiment of being unclear as to where our price is going to settle out in the energy supply chain and when do you want to make the bet to start repurposing assets and converting some of these assets to cash. So, those are probably the biggest things we&#146;ve seen in the commercial business affecting near-term results.</font></p>

More specifically, if you are developing a pipeline either of currently inactive clients or new partners who are, for lack of a better term, teed up to rejoin or join the marketplaces when they roll out beginning this summer? Thanks.</font></p>

<p style="line-height:117%;margin:0in 0in .0001pt 5.05pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:9.5pt;line-height:117%;">Sure. I think part of the business is making sure that you have a long-term view. And the infrastructure required&#160; to sustain a global growth business is really what drives our investment decisions on, how we staff and manage the organization. Clearly, in certain areas, we are bearing the full cost today on the P&amp;L of activities that are not reflected on the top-line.</font></p>

That&#146;s a significant investment.</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:9.5pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>
<p style="line-height:117%;margin:0in 0in .0001pt 5.05pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:9.5pt;line-height:117%;">Two points there, one: we would expect to have significant process innovation and simplification as we emerge from our transformation program, and two: we will have opportunities for efficiencies on the front&#150;end and the back-end of our business in so many ways, marketing to buyers, serving clients, how we track and manage data, provide that data internally and externally. And so there is a payout for us. But we have to continue to fund high - quality teams to make those new products and services come to life.</font></p>

<p style="line-height:117%;margin:0in 0in .0001pt 5.05pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:9.5pt;line-height:117%;">For individual programs, we&#146;re always looking to manage things efficiently. And so, with respect to programs that have change of scope, for example our DoD Surplus program, we will always make adjustments over time to reflect what we think is the new scope of work.</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:9.5pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

We think we&#146;re well positioned to reap returns from this effort and investment. And new services and new capabilities are part of that investment process. And we&#146;re excited to bring those to market.</font></p>

Some of those key client wins, these are very large clients, very large projects. So those result in multi-million dollar project, GMV opportunities. And those are some things that are less dependent on what we plan advantage in our organization more on how these clients unwind facilities, resolve human capital decisions or exiting business, merger integration decisions. But we think our guidance adequately captures the range of outcomes and we stand by that.</font></p>

<p style="line-height:117%;margin:0in 0in .0001pt 5.05pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:9.5pt;line-height:117%;">In terms of how we operationalize LiquidityOne,&nbsp;I think we&#146;ll be able to introduce new lines of business and new self-service capabilities that will just be another pathway for clients to work with us. And to leverage our buyer network, our marketing and merchandising skills and the valuation services that we provide. So that&#146;s something that we&#146;re planning to manage.</font></p>

<p style="line-height:117%;margin:0in 0in .0001pt 5.05pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:9.5pt;line-height:117%;">Hi, good morning, this is Matt Gall filling in for Gary. Just had a couple quick questions. The first one just regarding the tax rate,&nbsp;I think it was addressed in the release this morning kind of the range could vary from 30% to 40%, this quarter just slightly below that. What would cause any up -tick on that tax rate periodically as you look out over the next couple of quarters?</font></p>

<p style="line-height:117%;margin:0in 0in .0001pt 5.05pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:9.5pt;line-height:117%;">Well look, this is Jorge. You can imagine the tax rate is dependent on a lot of variables. What we would expect going forward is a tax rate similar to our first quarter tax rate of just under 30%. So looking forward that&#146;s what I would assume for the time being. As we see mix -changes or adjustments between foreign and domestic taxes, we would adjust accordingly. But the 29% to 30% is what you should look forward to this year through the end of this fiscal year.</font></p>

<p style="line-height:117%;margin:0in 0in .0001pt 5.05pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:9.5pt;line-height:117%;">Okay, thanks, that&#146;s helpful. And then, one other just quick more macro question. Bill, you had mentioned retail vertical might see a seasonal bump here in Q2. And in the release you had mentioned some of the increased adoption for your returns management services. Could you just maybe expand on what you&#146;re seeing in the retail channels and what your retail clients are looking for and how that plays out as far as longer-term trend as you build-out those services?</font></p>

<p style="line-height:117%;margin:0in 0in .0001pt 5.05pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:9.5pt;line-height:117%;">So,&nbsp;I think we observe macro trends in growth of online, retail and omni-channel retail. The increased complexity there requires help in the reverse supply chain. And what clients are wanting is a scale level so that we can help them track and manage products across all of their locations, provide the pre and post sell logistics, gathering assets physically being able to assess value, refurbish assets and also be able to take those for the right sales channel for maximum value.</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>
<p style="line-height:117%;margin:0in 0in .0001pt 5.05pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:9.5pt;line-height:117%;">I think that&#146;s where we provide the full one-stop shop solution for large manufacturers who are typically controlling their intellectual property, their designs and are looking to limit their investment in, after sales support. So we feel that that&#146;s a growth opportunity. We have a number of really strong case studies and reference clients to grow in that direction. We&#146;re excited about expanding our platform throughout that supply chain.</font></p>

<p style="line-height:117%;margin:0in 0in .0001pt 5.05pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:9.5pt;line-height:117%;">And the opportunity is to reduce complexity and how the vendors in the retail supply chain have to deal with product that&#146;s either returned or unsold or has to be removed from sales channels of their partners and also to protect their brand in that secondary marketplace. So that&#146;s a key trend for us.</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>
<p style="line-height:117%;margin:0in 0in .0001pt 5.05pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:9.5pt;line-height:117%;">I think also the ability to reduce transportation cost, reduce waste is another key driver for why people choose Liquidity Services. I think just the level of reliability; we&#146;re a company that has the ability to deploy multiple pricing models, fully dedicated service teams, to work with clients, just about any environment. And we continue to grow our buyer base.</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>
<p style="line-height:117%;margin:0in 0in .0001pt 5.05pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:9.5pt;line-height:117%;">I mean, we have lots of competitive sales channels to drive recovery for our clients. And that can range anywhere from export markets, B2Bmarkets and even B2C channels. So, we&#146;re well positioned to help that retail supply chain reduce the inefficiency and uncover new avenues of revenue and return.</font></p>
