    1. With your U.S. business growing at 44% and maintaining a Rule of 68, which you state is among the best, why not consider lowering margins to expand your client base and accelerate growth even further, especially when focusing on a smaller number of dominating partners may limit overall market penetration?

    2. Despite a 13% year-over-year growth, international government revenue declined 5% sequentially; what factors contributed to this decline, and what strategies are you implementing to address challenges in the international government segment?

    3. Given that revenue from strategic commercial contracts is expected to decline to between $6 million and $7.5 million in Q4 2024 from $20 million in Q4 2023, how significant is the impact on overall revenue, and what measures are you taking to mitigate this anticipated reduction?

    4. With adjusted expenses increasing by 6% sequentially and 14% year-over-year due to investments in AIP and technical talent, how do you balance the need for continued investment in AI capabilities with maintaining profitability and operating margins?

    5. As you focus on a smaller number of the world's best partners dominating with your product, rather than expanding to a larger client base, how do you mitigate risks associated with revenue concentration, especially if one of these key clients reduces their spending or switches to a competitor?
