be326a34120826329cd9 | At the end of June -- July, we hosted our first-ever game release event Enter Your Fantasy World, where we introduced 11 exciting titles across different genres. | BILI | NASDAQ: BILI | Aug 27, 2020, 9:00 p.m. ET | prepared |
b7e622db693ba7942134 | And the fourth point is on the big events in the second half, there could be new variety shows, as well as new events and gala. | BILI | NASDAQ: BILI | Aug 27, 2020, 9:00 p.m. ET | qa |
4f17ed74eca9a3ea3824 | During our 11th anniversary, we introduced a new slogan Bilibili-All the Videos You Like, helping to define our brand proposition and appeal to a wider base. With this vision in mind, we launched a branding campaign series that started with our blockbuster New Year's Eve gala in the first quarter, followed by the Hou Lang, Ru Hai, Xi Xiang Feng trilogy videos, which all have been widely successful, and we are seeing a clear uptick in brand perception and brand awareness across different demographics. | BILI | NASDAQ: BILI | Aug 27, 2020, 9:00 p.m. ET | prepared |
c80dbe8f7c576c8b6dda | However, under this challenging macro environment, we still delivered a pretty good advertising growth rate at 108% year-over-year. [Foreign Speech] So Bilibili has a video platform, we are one of the biggest beneficiary in the overall videolization industry trend. And we have observed that the advertisers' budget has shifted from the traditional portal to the video platforms. [Foreign Speech] As we mentioned earlier, we have invested significantly in expanding our brand awareness and raised our brand influence in the first half. | BILI | NASDAQ: BILI | Aug 27, 2020, 9:00 p.m. ET | qa |
b314827e4edd9eea08ba | With this vision in mind, we launched a branding campaign series that started with our blockbuster New Year's Eve gala in the first quarter, followed by the Hou Lang, Ru Hai, Xi Xiang Feng trilogy videos, which all have been widely successful, and we are seeing a clear uptick in brand perception and brand awareness across different demographics. This strategy is working well for us and we are determined to carry on as we move into the summer peak season. | BILI | NASDAQ: BILI | Aug 27, 2020, 9:00 p.m. ET | prepared |
904b19067287ec025caf | And there are two key factors among the live broadcasting industry. One is the good base of live broadcasting host, and second is a good base of users. And we believe we have these particular audiences for the two factors. We have both the highest quality content creator as, aka, our live broadcasting host, and we also have a very high-quality set of users who love to watch live broadcasting content. [Foreign Speech] So compared to other live broadcasting platforms, you're right about the revenue trajectory, we tend to have more stable growth instead of a sharply increased circle because their platform might pursuing [Phonetic] the signing top content host, which will drive the revenue in a short-term. But the merits of our business model is we tend to have a more stable and sustaining life cycle and our content creator, the live broadcasting hosts life cycle will also tend to be longer period. [Foreign Speech] We're quite confident to become the best platform for video content creators, given that the video equals live broadcasting content on our platform, we're also quite confident that will become one of the most popular live broadcasting platform in the future. | BILI | NASDAQ: BILI | Aug 27, 2020, 9:00 p.m. ET | qa |
cd306aefb9e8120cbfad | And second is, over the years, our ability to operate and sustain our ACG titles have improved significantly. And we're quite confident to continue the success. [Foreign Speech] And for games like Princess Connect!, with such large user base and within the four-month period of operating history, it has been very smooth in terms of operations and technical operations. So, this once again support our testimony that Bilibili is able to operate this genre's game quite well. As for the long life -- the life cycle of this game, we expect it could be something like FGO and to last couple of years. [Foreign Speech] As for our game -- overall game business, currently, we have over 30 games in our pipeline. And those games are not only ACG titles, we have been actively expanding our content offerings across different genres since last year, and we've made a quite good progress on some of the console games, indie games and have received good results. [Foreign Speech] The Fall Guys game that you mentioned is another example of our successful attempt in expanding into new genres. | BILI | NASDAQ: BILI | Aug 27, 2020, 9:00 p.m. ET | qa |
949497b04dfd40f470df | Julio Romero: Got it. So across the board, kind of, dealer and retail did well in June. Brian G. Harris: Yes, June and continued into July. | GFF | NYSE: GFF | Jul 30, 2020, 4:30 p.m. ET | qa |
540cf272b71e05f822ba | We bought CornellCookson, we had talked about the ability to provide the rolling steel doors as part of the warehouse business that was going to grow. | GFF | NYSE: GFF | Jul 30, 2020, 4:30 p.m. ET | qa |
63ee9bb7d1f691953d98 | Timothy Wojs: Okay, great. And then the free cash flow performance in the quarter was really good. How should we think about free cash flow maybe in the fourth quarter? Should you also have a pretty good quarter, just given the demand strength you've seen? Brian G. Harris: Yes. So, our second half of the year, that's our Q3 that we just ended, and our Q4 is our strongest cash flow months, cash generation quarters, I should say. And we continue to expect to increase cash flow into the fourth quarter. | GFF | NYSE: GFF | Jul 30, 2020, 4:30 p.m. ET | qa |
79ef1a6ce6f97099c3fb | These results are a reflection of the strategic actions taken by Griffon starting with the September 2017 announcement regarding the disposition of our Plastics business and the purchase of ClosetMaid, further enhanced by the purchase of CornellCookson in June of 2018, coupled with the home improvement trends that I described. Our pivot out of the capital-intensive, commodity-driven Plastics business into branded domestically manufactured Consumer and Professional Product businesses positioned us for market share gains, as well as revenue, earnings, and cash flow growth. | GFF | NYSE: GFF | Jul 30, 2020, 4:30 p.m. ET | prepared |
4f92a725bf8c4878a815 | Note that our overall guidance, even with the conservative Q4 outlook, is higher than our original guidance for the year of $250 million plus of adjusted EBITDA before unallocated expenses that we provided back in November. Further, our full year fiscal 2020 guidance includes approximately $60 million for capital expenditures, $64 million for depreciation and amortization, $65 million for net interest expense and $45 million for unallocated expenses, with all of these remaining the same as originally communicated during our November 2019 earnings call. | GFF | NYSE: GFF | Jul 30, 2020, 4:30 p.m. ET | prepared |
0270ba07635fffa8939a | Julio Romero: Got it. And could you talk about maybe the sequential trend in CPP? Maybe how that business performed in May and June, and maybe give us a sense of how trends and fill rates are quarter-to-date? Ronald J. Kramer: We continue to see trends improving. The stabilization had happened after the last time we spoke, which was late April, went into May, accelerated into the end of the quarter and continues into July. We expect this is going to continue: the market share gains of the products that we provide, the domestic manufacturingand distribution, and we've been talking for several years that this focus of ours on being able to support the biggest providers of all the products, it's clear that the supply chains are moving to domestically sourced product. We are the leading product, leading market share in every major product category that we sell and we're going to continue to invest in the brands to make sure that we get increased market share as we go forward. | GFF | NYSE: GFF | Jul 30, 2020, 4:30 p.m. ET | qa |
1512efb8f2ec55fef531 | Julio Romero: So on CPP, the strength you're seeing there, can you give us a little more granularity on what products are leading that growth? I know, you've got a very diverse portfolio and you called out outdoor lawn and garden, but you've also got some indoor lines like ClosetMaid, that I assume would have also done well, given everyone's kind of cooped up indoors. So I was hoping you could give us some specific examples of some product lines that are kind of leading that growth. Brian G. Harris: Sure. So, you sort of hit it. We have seen growth in demand of -- in both lawn and garden and the home organization side. Home organization is a -- pretty much a do-it-yourself type item where people can buy the products either at a store or online and install it. Home and garden, of course, is something that's done mostly outside and we are seeing people using their time at home and the fact that they're not spending on other things such as travel or going to restaurants and investing in their homes. And generally speaking, our products are at price points that are affordable. They're not very large ticket items. And that's what's been driving some of that demand. | GFF | NYSE: GFF | Jul 30, 2020, 4:30 p.m. ET | qa |
d62a6025084bee2d20cd | The foundry segment represented 25% of our systems revenue in the quarter. Strength in this segment is related to spending on the 7 and 5-nanometer nodes. | LRCX | NASDAQ: LRCX | Oct 23, 2019, 5:00 p.m. ET | qa |
ec450c13fc88aae9af3a | If you look at the first half of this year, Vivek -- calendar year again. I never really think too much in terms of fiscal calendar year. | LRCX | NASDAQ: LRCX | Oct 23, 2019, 5:00 p.m. ET | prepared |
2d1cecd163f9c1d0c710 | And then as a follow-up, I think, Tim in your prepared comments you spoke about how you guys are successfully defended 100% dielectric etch market share. | LRCX | NASDAQ: LRCX | Oct 23, 2019, 5:00 p.m. ET | prepared |
233fbe2f451a08ab577e | And EUV also, we have talked about in the past introduces opportunities for new steps like end processes like atomic layer etching that can be used to help increase quality and productivity of the EUV pattern itself. So I think the way you should think about it is our SAM is expanding, competitively our -- we're gaining share at some of these new layers and we feel we're well set up in both the foundry and logic space going forward as technology transitions. | LRCX | NASDAQ: LRCX | Oct 23, 2019, 5:00 p.m. ET | prepared |
1334f0efdc5a02c98412 | But what we said in the past and I continue to be very comfortable saying today is, I have a hard time envisioning a year when the installed base business doesn't grow, it should grow every single year. Because chamber count grows every year, it's growing this year, even in a depressed memory spending environment and we continue to bring new advanced service offerings to market that we hope enable us to achieve more and more of the customer's opex spend. | LRCX | NASDAQ: LRCX | Oct 23, 2019, 5:00 p.m. ET | prepared |
70c4419a19ac7f3004d4 | But Tim did point out in his remarks, that some of the strengthening in WFE came from local China probably now and nominally somewhat above $6 billion in WFE. And as we look into next year we absolutely think it will grow again next year, but it will ebb and flow, it will -- these big projects can be lumpy at times, and it will go up and it will go down depending on when equipment ships into any one fab projects. | LRCX | NASDAQ: LRCX | Oct 23, 2019, 5:00 p.m. ET | prepared |
126ebb9c50951a6537af | Atif Malik: Hi, thanks for taking my question and good job on the execution. Question on the WFE, Tim, you mentioned WFE going from low $40 billion to mid $40 billion. I want to spend, if the majority of the increase has come from the foundry/logic segment in terms of the revised outlook? Tim Archer: Maybe a few modifications, I mean, clearly, as we've said, we've continued to see strengthening in foundry and logic. So that is a portion of it. The -- some very early indications of NAND spending increase as we now guided for December quarter. And finally, continuing strengthening in the China WFE as we've, kind of, seen increased strength throughout the year. So combination of all those things lead to our upward revision in WFE. | LRCX | NASDAQ: LRCX | Oct 23, 2019, 5:00 p.m. ET | qa |
ca5334b9602a4057b391 | Yes, John, I mean, one thing I would point out to you and if you look over the last two years, you will have seen several quarters where the cash we actually deployed moved down somewhat. That was because in the quarter before that we put one of these accelerated share repurchase programs in place. You have the same phenomenon going on this quarter. So even though the cash that we deployed in terms of open market repurchases wasn't all that significant this quarter, that ASR was still executing buying stock back, and that ASR that's currently out there will complete in the December quarter. So we'll be thinking about what we're going to do incrementally as we go forward. So far, just remind you what we talked about and it's been a while now the last Analyst Day that we're committed to at least 50% of free cash flow returned to shareholders, and obviously if you look at our history, over the last five, six years, we've done a whole lot more than that. | LRCX | NASDAQ: LRCX | Oct 23, 2019, 5:00 p.m. ET | prepared |
145964a3b2c7a4669543 | Also, we continue to spend time in the field with referral partners and business owners working to understand what they may be seeing in the market. | BBSI | NASDAQ: BBSI | Nov 6, 2019, 12:00 p.m. ET | prepared |
8815c1e9824ab814c273 | We're looking at where we optimize the efficiency of capacity utilization against where we need to be to make sure we don't stall pipeline or anything. | BBSI | NASDAQ: BBSI | Nov 6, 2019, 12:00 p.m. ET | qa |
ecb7abbe72a22406d803 | Regarding our outlook for the remainder of the year, we continue to expect gross billings growth for the next rolling 12-month period to be approximately 8%. | BBSI | NASDAQ: BBSI | Nov 6, 2019, 12:00 p.m. ET | prepared |
0263ee692ed0a3cbbee4 | Josh Vogel: Mike, you usually give us some commentary around the average pay and over time trends across your client base. I was wondering if you could share that with us. Michael L. Elich: So, in the quarter, I'll probably defer to the absolutes with Kramer. One of the things that we have seen probably is it relates to growth in same customer sales are still probably coming from wage inflation and, but I'll let Kramer talk to this more of the detail with that. | BBSI | NASDAQ: BBSI | Nov 6, 2019, 12:00 p.m. ET | qa |
f95c4b068fb6b466ff41 | So we're tapping a market that allows us to, one, create an experience, we're also getting our brand out in front of us without being -- go on TV and media wise. But we're creating environments to build relationships with our referral channels and then ultimately to begin to expand and create avenues where the brand of BBSI and mybbsi are being seen by those people that might be our audience either today or in the future and creating more of a curiosity approach. | BBSI | NASDAQ: BBSI | Nov 6, 2019, 12:00 p.m. ET | prepared |
1c0c42705c5ab8159f29 | And I would probably -- what I meant was the way the channel works is if you look at first meeting to second meeting to third meeting to fourth meeting, there's -- the fall off happens differently. When we finally get to the ultimate yield of the ultimate --- of the first pipeline that we see to the end, it's pretty much in line with what we see and in California as well and it's pretty consistent across all states, but how it happens is different. | BBSI | NASDAQ: BBSI | Nov 6, 2019, 12:00 p.m. ET | prepared |
fe8203d64188ba39a68e | Jeff Martin: I was wondering if you could comment on the implied Q4 guide relative to your updated guidance of $6.05 for the year. What implied down year-over-year, I know there are some things going on with payroll taxes, but I think it'd be helpful to kind of get some insight from you in an open format here on that. Gary Kramer: Yeah. So if you think back for Q4 of '18, we have, call it, two non-recurring, so we had a change in estimate for workers' comp which was like $2.3 million. So when we're giving any forecast for the forward look, we don't forecast for any change in estimate. So that's one of the puts and then the other one was in Q4 of '18, we were estimating that we were going to have a payroll tax that was going to be due that ended up not being due. So, we took down that accrual in Q4 of '18. So you've got, call it, two credits from '18 that don't repeat in '19. So if you normalize for those, we still are getting to earnings growth for Q4 of '19. | BBSI | NASDAQ: BBSI | Nov 6, 2019, 12:00 p.m. ET | qa |
a1e560d6a6cf35bb90ee | Jeff Martin: Right. All right. Okay, last question. Some of your peers have had issues with underwriting healthcare insurance. Just want to clarify that you have no exposure to underwriting healthcare and some of the similar issues that others are having. Gary Kramer: Yeah. So we do not offer healthcare to our clients, as you're seeing with some of our peers that they can be difficult risk to underwrite and we don't really feel the need for it in our value prop. When we think about the risk we do take, call that, workers' comp and for that risk, we have a very methodical process for how we bring clients on, for how we work with the clients to align better for how we can work with them to mitigate risk and we feel like, really we can make that a better underwriting decision as opposed to the healthcare side, which is more of a challenging risk that it's more difficult to mitigate. | BBSI | NASDAQ: BBSI | Nov 6, 2019, 12:00 p.m. ET | qa |
d6c6b97307b0e5c05b2a | Yeah. Okay, and then lastly for me, if there's any update on any possible news with the home centers here in the US, that would great. | CSTE | NASDAQ: CSTE | Aug 7, 2019, 8:30 a.m. ET | qa |
a20a821cbae6f0bf1352 | To that point, in Australia, constant currency sales were down 12%. The decline was attributable to continued competition, mainly from Chinese manufacturers as I just mentioned. | CSTE | NASDAQ: CSTE | Aug 7, 2019, 8:30 a.m. ET | prepared |
ed0c1d9cc76e012f5bb3 | Maybe one -- other one while you're looking at that. The IKEA business has obviously been a lot of volatility -- a source of a lot of volatility. | CSTE | NASDAQ: CSTE | Aug 7, 2019, 8:30 a.m. ET | qa |
af9cea7a064cc287de7c | Dillard Watt: Yeah. Okay, and then lastly for me, if there's any update on any possible news with the home centers here in the US, that would great. Yuval Dagim: So, no formal news at the moment. We are still working on this relationship -- this relationship, I think it's going well so far, but not to the point that we can advise the market on a new deal or that -- or the full agreement on those relationship, but there was still keeping positive on this opportunity. | CSTE | NASDAQ: CSTE | Aug 7, 2019, 8:30 a.m. ET | qa |
371e1bd9e122eb84074f | Dillard Watt: So it's fair to say then that the acceleration in the core business came from more the K&B [Phonetic] type side of the business. Yuval Dagim: Yeah, for sure. I mean, in the US, we saw a decline in IKEA this quarter as well, but the core business grew 12% and it came from K&B, in our retail side of the business and from [Phonetic] the new building, but not from their big books. | CSTE | NASDAQ: CSTE | Aug 7, 2019, 8:30 a.m. ET | qa |
bb754046324d92af1311 | All in all, it was -- in the past, it was our focus -- sorry, our guess of the market share in our view and I think it's -- it's too early to say whether say in a different position. Now, definitely what I can say is that we are more -- way more confident that we can capture the opportunity that that we've seen in the market in the US, and we're definitely going to see growth coming from the US business over the next quarters. | CSTE | NASDAQ: CSTE | Aug 7, 2019, 8:30 a.m. ET | qa |
4f7197acf5719fe976b8 | Dillard Watt: Thanks. Good morning, gentlemen. I want a follow up and ask a follow up on the India and Turkey and other countries that you're seeing import into the US. Is that a -- are you seeing similar -- either landed prices or retail or however you want to measure the price point, is it still -- is it still a pricing headwind that you were -- you had experience in the past with the Chinese competition that was pretty disruptive to the business? Yuval Dagim: Hi, Dillard, it's it's Yuval. I think it's pretty much the same. We are -- from the data that we have, we are experiencing probably the similar price points coming from different locations. I guess, -- the change from China to India is actually in the same segment with the same prices. So obviously, average price, so it's -- it has -- these are accuracy measurement, but all in all I think normal I think, you'll see the same -- same behavior in the market. There's no shortfall of the low cost manufacturing slabs or sources in the US and again, I think it's -- it's mostly what we are doing internally in our business to capture the opportunity rather than less of competition. | CSTE | NASDAQ: CSTE | Aug 7, 2019, 8:30 a.m. ET | qa |
08c4ed42b0d3f37c18ae | Dillard Watt: Okay. And then I hate to belabor the point too much here on the various low cost competition, but if it's coming in now to Canada, Australia, does they have benefit -- a little bit of some mix of hindsight and experience from what has occurred in the US, -- what might be the strategy to offset some of the volume pressures in those other countries at the same time that you're having some macro pressures there. Yuval Dagim: I think what we're experiencing is more competition in Australia and Canada, mostly in the commercial area with the high rise building and multi-units. This is where -- it's more price sensitive and we see more competition coming. It's only partial or part of our portfolio in those countries and I think we continue to build on our very strong Caesarstone brand in those countries we are very strong with, consumers and the K&B shops. And I think we'll continue to work on, on the demand throughout coming in this -- in this market. | CSTE | NASDAQ: CSTE | Aug 7, 2019, 8:30 a.m. ET | qa |

814fb9dbf5c4fe116b24 | Andrew Garth Schmidt: Understood. Okay. That's good context. And then just my follow-up, maybe I'll ask it. There's a -- obviously, a lot of news about M&A out there. Dan, I was hoping to get your view about just philosophically, how you feel about scale acquisitions versus capabilities? Just philosophically, just interested to kind of get your viewpoint on just the M&A front? Dan Henry: My viewpoint in terms of what are we looking to grow through acquisitions or just like -- I'm not real clear what you're asking. | GDOT | NYSE: GDOT | Nov 4, 2020, 5:00 p.m. ET | qa |
f61c72ee12f4bc399e40 | Andrew William Jeffrey: I'm also Skeptical often OK. Dan Henry: I know how you make your living. I know. Absolutely. The economics on this product are going to be stronger than, I think, any product that we have at Green Dot currently. And now 6% and 7% cash back rewards, those returns are funded by the merchants who are issuing those reward programs. So those won't come as a cost to us. So it's really about how we can be creative and designing really value which opportunities, propositions for the consumer that they love and embrace, and we still preserve the very good economics on our product. | GDOT | NYSE: GDOT | Nov 4, 2020, 5:00 p.m. ET | qa |

b6878870f2653bda1e05 | Andrew Garth Schmidt: First question on new customer acquisition. So now that we have couple quarters post stimulus under our belt, wonder if you could talk about what you're seeing in terms of organic account growth in the quarter, for lack of a better kind of meaning. Are you seeing an elevated level of net new adds from non stimulus, non unemployment benefit customers? And any help there would be much appreciated. Dan Henry: It's a good question, Andrew. I think it's hard to really pull apart of what a stimulus and what is stimulus. I can say that we have seen an elevated amount of new customers coming into the system. And again, sort of hard to dissect whether they're coming in for non stimulus versus stimulus reasons. But yes, across Q2 and Q3, we saw a significant amount of new acquisition, both in retail and then the strength of the direct business, which is in part the better marketing efforts we have and the better cost per funded, but also in large part to additional stimulus funds and just the attractiveness of our products given this digital acceleration. | GDOT | NYSE: GDOT | Nov 4, 2020, 5:00 p.m. ET | qa |
9a232ee8bd11b459cd89 | Robert Paul Napoli: Thank you. Good afternoon. Bob. Lot going on. Just maybe a first question, just on direct deposit. And I mean the -- your prior roles. I mean, direct deposit was a big focus. I know it's a big focus here. The penetration rate currently is about 40% on direct deposit accounts. Is there a strategy around building the direct deposit customer base at a faster rate? If so, what is it and what kind of a penetration rate or other metrics would you judge with the success of that program on? Dan Henry: Yes, Bob, I think your question, I think, illustrates the knowledge and awareness of like from what we do. The direct deposit customer is extremely valuable customer. So as we -- when we launch our challenger Bank initiative early next year, we will be very focused on driving that direct deposit growth with that product. So in terms of any sort of metrics or levels of success, can't give those to you at this point? But yes, it's going to be a cornerstone to our strategy and our focus on growth. | GDOT | NYSE: GDOT | Nov 4, 2020, 5:00 p.m. ET | qa |

bdc1c3f5f50afc16f370 | Yarden Amsalem: I guess, relatedly, if [Indecipherable] prices remains strong through the end of the year, do you expect conversion rates can actually improve in 3Q and 4Q? James P. Hallett: Yeah, conversion rates are well above historic norms. And I would be excited just to maintain those conversion rates as we get through the fourth quarter. Would we take an increase? Indeed, we would. But I'm not sure how much higher the conversion rates can go than where they are right now. | KAR | NYSE: KAR | Aug 5, 2020, 8:30 a.m. ET | qa |
92cffa55a91361265c8a | Ryan Brinkman: Hi, thanks for taking my question and thanks for the additional disclosure on the intra-quarter trend in volume too which was helpful this quarter. Are you able to comment on the trend subsequent to the quarter in July? Are volumes set to exceed the 8% year-over-year growth in June? James P. Hallett: Yeah, Ryan, good morning, and welcome, and thank you for your question. Listen, we're obviously very, very pleased with the results that we saw in June. I would tell you, as we go through July, prices remained strong, conversion rates remained strong and we expect the business to continue to do well in -- as we go into the third quarter. | KAR | NYSE: KAR | Aug 5, 2020, 8:30 a.m. ET | qa |
81c9009857b0da6484ae | I did want to follow up on that last question on TradeRev that you mentioned in your prepared remarks about, I guess, discrepancy in recovery between Canada and the U.S. Could you maybe talk about what you saw as Canada started to improve or maybe break out when TradeRev in the U.S. start really to pick up? Just some more intra-quarter detail would be helpful as we, kind of, can then use that to look at performance in the back half. | KAR | NYSE: KAR | Aug 5, 2020, 8:30 a.m. ET | qa |
a9bb04590bf0e155b0f1 | Ryan Brinkman: Okay and then just last quick question... Eric Loughmiller: If I could, because a lot of investors ask us this. We expect very strong off-lease returns, whether it be through deferrals, but there is also a large number of lease maturities in the second half going back and looking at 2017 lease originations. We expect rental car to be a contributor to our industry. We are doing very well on repossessions. But it will grow because they've been lighter. Dealer consignment -- while July was very good for us, consolidated dealer consignment was up quite a bit year-over-year. That's the area -- with the retailers being so light on inventory, they're retailing more trades that could be tight, but we think that it will grow year-over-year for us. So that -- I just wanted to give a summary walking through the different segments. I do think, though, that the next six months have more visibility. It's still pretty murky looking into 2021 beyond the off-lease area where we know there's a lot of lease returns. How that will do is highly dependent on unemployment figures in the economy. | KAR | NYSE: KAR | Aug 5, 2020, 8:30 a.m. ET | qa |
5730f22cec02d2c96f74 | Yarden Amsalem: Okay, thank you. I guess, my second question, can you talk about the trend with online-only revenue per vehicle in the quarter and your expectations for the rest of the year? I mean, do you think ARPU on a consolidated basis can -- will likely remain at current levels, or could it actually trend positively, I guess, toward the second half of 2020? Eric Loughmiller: We are seeing it trend positively month-to-month right now and it's primarily because of ancillary services are continuing to grow. Those were -- ancillary services were the deepest cut in our business. We couldn't do anything to a car, other than sell it early in the quarter and that's coming back. And I think one of the misconceptions I hear from investors is that, as it goes online, you're going to reduce the transaction revenue from selling the vehicle. Well, that just isn't true. Our Simulcast and Simulcast+ products are able to maintain the same auction revenue per transaction that we're getting when we had the physical auction. There is no reductions in the fees and the mix is right. And the other thing that's really powerful, the conversion rates we're getting because of the all-digital platforms is actually driving higher gross profit. That's what's doing it. High conversion rates are really good because we're getting great leverage off of a fixed cost infrastructure in the technology. Jim, do you have anything you want to add? | KAR | NYSE: KAR | Aug 5, 2020, 8:30 a.m. ET | qa |

755557695ba617c33b39 | As we think about the balance of the year in our progress toward normal sales volumes and profitability, we've come to the conclusion the full economics and the sequential improvement will position Enerpac at near parity with our 2019 core sales levels as we exit the fiscal year. Secondly, we fully expect incremental margins to be in the range of 35% to 45% on core sales, and lastly, we will continue to focus on cost control and executing our margin expansion strategy. | EPAC | NYSE: EPAC | Mar 24, 2021, 11:00 a.m. ET | prepared |

a566f0997687dce2bde3 | Joe Grabowski: Great. Okay. That's really helpful color. Thank you. And I guess my follow-up question. I'll kind of stick with the same math. If I look at EBITDA second half versus first half, rough math, it implies about a 17% EBITDA margin in the second half versus an 11% on the first half. So pretty healthy incremental sequentially. Maybe just talk about some of the cost headwinds and the cost tailwind that are may be helping or hurting second half to first half to drive that EBITDA margin improvement? Rick Dillon: Sure. I think the -- as we've been saying I think the biggest tailwind will be improving product volume. And so that's going to be the biggest driver to that improvement first half to second half. You'll see about the -- see incremental bonus expense at some level. And you'll see a little bit of incremental savings. We hope to get the benefit of continued improved utilization less under absorption like you saw in Q2. So I think the biggest -- Q1 to Q2 I think the biggest tailwind will be product volume. You do have a mix play that will be favorable as the product volume kicks out and that's going to be our biggest driver of improvement. | EPAC | NYSE: EPAC | Mar 24, 2021, 11:00 a.m. ET | qa |
3d5c9522ce588ee46c04 | Brendan Popson: Hi. Good morning. Thanks for taking my question. I just wanted to ask with your commentary on the back half of the year. Obviously, Q3 is typically the strongest, but it sounds like you're expecting the recovery -- sequential growth in the Q4. I just want to confirm if that's the case. And then following up on that, you also had a comment that you expect to be at pre-COVID levels at the exit of the year. So I guess outside of any further hiccups, is that looking out beyond FY '21? Is that a good way to think about your revenue potential as we exit the year? Randy Baker: Yes, that's exactly what we were referring is that first of all, the sequential improvement will accelerate. And we're very happy with the inbound orders that we've seen to date in March. And one of the interesting elements that we're watching is that if you recall last year, the big drop-off didn't occur until the last week or so of March. And so the fact that we were already 15% up versus prior year in March is really supporting our projections that it's going to accelerate and we're going to have somewhat of an off-cycle or a typical year, where the third quarter is our peak, followed by the fourth. We believe that that will be -- that cycle will not occur this year that will be sequentially better each month and each quarter. | EPAC | NYSE: EPAC | Mar 24, 2021, 11:00 a.m. ET | qa |

You mentioned both inflationary pressures and sort of normalizing behavior compared to the COVID impact from last year for the declines there. I'm just wondering if the read through there is that competition from sort of more operators in the market was not a factor there or just less of a factor. And maybe you can just as a follow up, also touch on the delay in the licensing for Spin and whether last quarter you talked about you're still able to operate in as you were previously with regulator knowledge. I'm wondering if that took place throughout the entire period from last quarter to now or if there's any change to that. Thanks. Thanks a lot. Neal Menashe: OK. So I'll take that. So yes, with Canada, as with all other markets, we operate in, there is competition. There's competition in all our markets. So for us is Canada is we're the same company as we were a year ago. Canada is all about, obviously, gaming now regulated in Ontario with Betway went last week and then Spin going next week. So up to now they've been operating on the old software and they've now moved over. And Betway in the last seven to eight days is in line with our expectations. So Spin's going next week. So we've learned a lot from Betway and then we can implement that into Spin. | SGHC | NYSE: SGHC | Aug 11, 2022, 8:30 a.m. ET | qa |

ae04bbaa9f5bebdfa419 | Yes. The pipeline we've been working has been relatively fluid for us. When we look really across the segment, most predominantly it's the other independent channels, so other independent firms where we're seeing most inflows of advisors coming into the what on reorganization. And I think what's resonating there is really the overarching package that we've assembled here, a competitive technology, payout grids, overarching product and open architecture, development on our advisory programs that we've been working on for the past several quarters, but it's really resonating around additional support models with advanced sales support through our Wealth Solutions Group, the materiality of our practice development team as well as field support that we have embedded out there. We've done a lot over the course of 2020 to still maintain service levels and support models in light of COVID-19, evaluating the situation and doing a variety of different types virtual opportunities, including the migration of our in-person conference to a virtual-based conference that had a lot of success associated with it. | WDR | NYSE: WDR | Jul 28, 2020, 10:00 a.m. ET | qa |

97d58c15b91bd2c5d0e9 | The second was also weather patterns in the West, specifically the Pacific Northwest that impacted fruit. So those are two areas of commodities or ingredients where we've seen inflation come through, particularly in the second half of our fiscal year. Transportation, due to the volatility and tightness of supply chain, continues to be real not only from a labor standpoint but also from a unit standpoint, and just an overall sort of backlog in the system that has persisted throughout the entire pandemic. And then on the packaging front, packaging continues to have the implications of just ongoing pricing pressures that continue candidly from the weather disruption that occurred in the winter time frame in Texas due to the freeze. And so as a result of this persistent inflation, we continue to manage through very effectively, not only through our supply chain and relationships with our suppliers and the great work by our teams, but we've got to acknowledge this inflation in our P&L and we need to recover it. | SJM | NYSE: SJM | Aug 26, 2021, 9:00 a.m. ET | prepared |

We have a number of other initiatives that we're doing and I'll let Frank talk about them in a second, but I will talk about the real estate first, and the real estate, we opened 56 stores this year and closed 20 some, I think for a net gain with 35, over half of those stores were Free People Movement stores, so rather small but highly productive. | URBN | NASDAQ: URBN | Nov 22, 2021, 5:15 p.m. ET | prepared |
e2f9efc1d7a848b5da24 | So I could tell you coming into the third quarter, we were certainly lighter than we would have liked to have been in almost all the apparel categories in all brands. I think both Urban and Anthropologie were more significantly impacted by this because their inventory volumes were a little bit lower than where Free People was running due to obviously the significantly strong Free People comp and not to say that Free People wasn't impacted as well. | URBN | NASDAQ: URBN | Nov 22, 2021, 5:15 p.m. ET | prepared |
bdad7e2a9a3509670707 | Well, as you know, over the last six, seven years we have consistently talked about keeping our inventory as lean as possible, testing and learning and going back in quickly and buying more of certain items or things that are like the certain items that are selling and replenishing that way. Right now, we don't have the choice of doing that because supply chain is anywhere from four to six weeks longer than it was two years ago. | URBN | NASDAQ: URBN | Nov 22, 2021, 5:15 p.m. ET | prepared |
