    1. Given the relatively low average daily volume of around 850 contracts per day in your European index options, what is your conviction level that this long-term investment will pay off, and what milestones are you targeting to validate this strategy?

    2. Despite returning $150 million in capital during the quarter, your cash balance has increased to about $600 million and net leverage continues to decrease. Is this buildup of cash driven by potential M&A opportunities, and how does this align with your shift away from M&A towards organic growth and returning capital to shareholders?

    3. With the significant growth of Cboe Global Cloud outside the U.S., can you elaborate on how meaningful its financial contribution is currently, and what initiatives are you undertaking to expand it further as part of your global expansion plans?

    4. As you focus on facilitating global investors' access to U.S. markets, how significant is the import business opportunity, and what challenges do you anticipate in capturing market share internationally, especially given the competitive landscape?

    5. You have stated that you are reallocating resources and changing your capital allocation strategy away from M&A towards organic growth initiatives and returning capital to shareholders. Can you provide more details on how this strategic shift will impact your expense growth, margins, and earnings growth in the near term?
