11
00:01:43.290 --> 00:01:55.290
Thanks Morgan thanks everybody for joining us here today, as many of you know tracks is in the business of building products that are tools that help public companies thrive.
12
00:01:55.620 --> 00:02:06.450
We do that through a few different mechanisms we do that through our acquire SAS platform, which is a tool that allows public companies to understand.
13
00:02:06.690 --> 00:02:15.840
A variety of different things about their investors both retail and an institutional and manages a variety of different things that are important.
14
00:02:16.080 --> 00:02:22.830
For public companies employee options warrants that they might have in the company their CAP table in general.
15
00:02:23.160 --> 00:02:38.190
allows them to manage everything that has to do with the day to day activity of being a public company, as it relates to the stock in that company, we then complement that with two other pieces of our business.
16
00:02:38.580 --> 00:02:49.920
We own the largest micro CAP conference in the country, we throw that in person twice a year called ld micro the next one is coming up here and in June.
17
00:02:50.370 --> 00:03:01.920
And then we have the virtual element of that we’ve written some virtual software that allows us to run virtual conferences, not only for ourselves, but we license and.
18
00:03:02.220 --> 00:03:11.850
Our software out to other banks that are out there to run their conferences, so we have many, many different banks that are licensed in our software.
19
00:03:12.120 --> 00:03:23.670
To run their virtual conferences and then around all of this we’ve built investor community, so we, we have a database inside this ecosystem of companies.
20
00:03:23.970 --> 00:03:41.910
That represents a significant amount of shareholders and we’re building Community around those shareholders, giving them news and information and education, so that they can become better investors and better educated in the market itself.
21
00:03:44.250 --> 00:04:00.000
was a banner year for us, we had you know we did $46.1 million in bookings for the year not revenue, but we booked $46 million, where the contracts in 2021.
22
00:04:00.540 --> 00:04:14.220
So it’s a very solid year and we’re accelerating that pace into 2022 we ended the year with around 278 issuers that signed up for this acquire platform where.
23
00:04:14.490 --> 00:04:24.240
reaffirming our guidance for q1 of 11.5 million, which is the number that we gave out recently but we’re increasing our full year revenue guidance.
24
00:04:24.990 --> 00:04:41.040
From 45 to 47 million to 47 to 49 million and we’re comfortable doing that because we’re seeing an acceleration in the bookings that we’re having within the organization.
25
00:04:42.150 --> 00:04:49.950
So now i’d like to turn over the call to Mike Malone our CFO to give you a little bit of an update on where we are with the filing.
26
00:04:50.910 --> 00:04:56.010
Thank you, Chris as many of you know, last week we filed an extension to file our annual report.
27
00:04:56.460 --> 00:05:06.480
The delays, causing the extension or the result of complexities related to the D consolidation of fake token in the fourth quarter specifically procedures related to the review.
28
00:05:06.750 --> 00:05:10.560
and audit of the financial statements that we were required to incorporate within ours.
29
00:05:10.860 --> 00:05:17.370
As well as the valuation of a remaining equity investment within big token have caused overall delays and the completion of our audit work.
30
00:05:17.700 --> 00:05:24.630
we’re working diligently to complete these items accurately and expeditiously as a result of the consolidation of big token.
31
00:05:25.200 --> 00:05:33.210
Our financials will be much easier to understand, going forward, they will be highlighting the true value versus acquire business and with that i’d like to turn the call back to Chris.
32
00:05:33.900 --> 00:05:47.400
Thanks Mike you know there’s no excuse for for us not to have our financials filed on time and we’re doing everything we can work in 24 seven over here to get that done.
33
00:05:47.880 --> 00:05:53.940
You know some of the stuff that we’re working on has been very complex and we hope that.
34
00:05:54.240 --> 00:06:06.270
After big token is separated fully out of the ecosystem of require that this makes it much easier to understand, so acquire and tracks as a business going forward.
35
00:06:06.600 --> 00:06:14.340
So we appreciate your patience, we understand that you know, nobody likes to see things filed late, including us and you know hope to.
36
00:06:14.730 --> 00:06:25.290
Have these filed on time in the future and we’ll have you know we’ll have another call once this is done and finished that will outline the exact numbers.
37
00:06:26.190 --> 00:06:38.520
But before we got there, I just want to give you a little bit of a preview into this acquire bookings because we q1 we saw another significant booking period.
38
00:06:39.000 --> 00:06:53.970
We did $15.6 million in bookings in q1, which is a pretty solid number considering you know it’s a little bit down from Q4 we did 16 and a half, but Q4 was an amazing quarter.
39
00:06:54.450 --> 00:07:04.530
This is well above what we had anticipated that we would do for q1 so that’s why we are comfortable and increasing our guidance.
40
00:07:04.830 --> 00:07:11.970
For the year because you know we’re have insight and obviously the, the sooner in the year that we’re closing this business up.
41
00:07:12.390 --> 00:07:24.180
The more impact it has in 2022 so we’re really excited about this and the sales team has grown we’ve hired up around the sales team.
42
00:07:24.600 --> 00:07:30.660
And they have a lot of business in the pipeline So things are things are looking good on the booking side.
43
00:07:31.320 --> 00:07:45.570
We added around 24 new subscribers to the platform in between Q4 and q1 so it’s a you know, the number of subscribers continues to increase, so hopefully we can keep pace with that.
44
00:07:46.380 --> 00:07:59.100
I want to talk a little bit about our share structure we had around 4.5 million warrants that expired in January of this year, so we were able to.
45
00:07:59.760 --> 00:08:16.590
subtract around $4.5 million worth of warrants out of our CAP table so on a fully diluted basis now we’re looking at around 33.4 million shares outstanding for the company if all of those.
46
00:08:16.980 --> 00:08:29.490
warrants came in that make up that share structure, which would be a total of 5.3 million warrants then you’re looking at around $16 million.
47
00:08:29.850 --> 00:08:41.850
That would come into the company in additional cash, so you have in April this month, you have around 1.4 million warrants that expire in April.
48
00:08:42.270 --> 00:08:58.500
And then the next big chunk of warrants expire in October of 3.7 million again collectively if all of those were to get exercise it would generate another $16 million in capital for the company.
49
00:08:59.250 --> 00:09:07.440
As of the end of the year, we had 153 employees within the organization, you know we’re starting to see.
50
00:09:07.830 --> 00:09:22.740
People getting back together we’re starting to get the team back together and we had a an off site and in February, where the entire product team and engineering team spent a week and planning for the year.
51
00:09:23.190 --> 00:09:37.470
And it was a you know it’s great to have everybody back in one location and collaborating with each other, we saw a big increase in the institutional ownership, we had projected around 8.1 million for Q4.
52
00:09:38.670 --> 00:09:47.850
Where we did see that have around 8.1 million shares owned by institutional owners and that’s a significant increase over the.
53
00:09:48.150 --> 00:09:59.730
600,000 shares a little bit more than a year ago, so we’ve seen a constant increase here in the number of institutional shareholders, so we we think that’s fantastic.
54
00:10:00.240 --> 00:10:08.880
We have a couple of new features that we added in the fourth quarter that we’re announcing right now we have a product that’s called the deal Center.
55
00:10:09.270 --> 00:10:20.730
And the deal Center allows the issuers to track the movement of specific financings that they do so historically what’s happened inside of.
56
00:10:21.090 --> 00:10:32.580
financings or any type of stock surveillance is that companies would be focused on 13 X 13 geez that are filed by different hedge funds or different institutional investors.
57
00:10:33.120 --> 00:10:38.310
we’ve built the deal Center as a tool that allows for the.
58
00:10:39.210 --> 00:10:51.150
issuer to track exactly where shares move whenever a transactions being done, whether that’s a common share or a warrant exercise or a convertible debt.
59
00:10:51.510 --> 00:10:59.820
or any type of financing that happens within the organization, you would build that transaction within our system.
60
00:11:00.270 --> 00:11:13.320
And then the system will then track where those shares move and we’ve built a Ai to understand if those specific institutions or investors are selling their shares over time.
61
00:11:13.680 --> 00:11:24.300
And then we’ve created predictive analytics based on previous habits about what the most likely this investors is likely to do.
62
00:11:24.570 --> 00:11:38.160
So historically we’ve seen that this investor cells after they invest in a transaction we’ve seen that they sell over the first six months or the first 12 months or the first month or so this amount of volume per per quarter.
63
00:11:38.760 --> 00:11:51.570
And then we’re applying that to the entire deal and then allows it allows us, then, to keep track of where exactly everything’s moving now in in addition to.
64
00:11:52.200 --> 00:11:58.170
Just tracking where they’re moving it also helps issuers when they give certain rights.
65
00:11:58.680 --> 00:12:13.650
To specific investors so let’s say you enter into a transaction, but you have a reset clause in either a warrant or reset clause in your convertible debt or in a common stock issuance.
66
00:12:14.190 --> 00:12:23.160
keeping track of all of those different instances and contractual obligations that an issuer has it’s very difficult to do.
67
00:12:23.580 --> 00:12:31.950
We built the system so that it can then track all of these different resets and ratchets that happened within these deals if they do exist.
68
00:12:32.430 --> 00:12:42.870
So that they automatically get brought to the attention of management, while they’re entering into a new transaction and gives them the financial ramifications of having.
69
00:12:43.350 --> 00:12:48.870
reset the price of any of these instruments and any of these securities that are out there.
70
00:12:49.410 --> 00:12:53.310
So this is that we’ve been working on the deal Center for a really long time.
71
00:12:53.640 --> 00:13:05.370
And it is probably one of the coolest things that we’ve ever built it is going to be I believe instrumental and helping public companies understand.
72
00:13:05.730 --> 00:13:15.450
Their CAP tables and where shares are moving, so the team did a fantastic job on on working on this and we look forward to launching it to our clients.
73
00:13:16.140 --> 00:13:26.280
The next thing we did in the fourth quarter was we relaunched the virtual events, one on one platform in our system.
74
00:13:26.730 --> 00:13:33.930
So, historically, we we built the virtual events platform, but the one on one feature was very limited.
75
00:13:34.350 --> 00:13:43.470
Now we’ve expanded on that one on one feature we’ve given it the ability to do all kinds of statistical analysis about who’s visiting what companies.
76
00:13:43.800 --> 00:13:48.660
What how long they’re how long they’re watching presentations how long they’re staying in the presentation.
77
00:13:49.380 --> 00:14:01.410
Is there any type of crossover between the different companies that they’re watching so a lot of tools that are very valuable in understanding.
78
00:14:01.830 --> 00:14:05.430
things about the investors that are watching these events and also.
79
00:14:06.000 --> 00:14:23.220
Other we built in additional functionality, that is very helpful for the organizers of these one on one events so you know, these things are never finished and they’re constantly evolving, but this update was a was a major milestone for our.
80
00:14:23.820 --> 00:14:33.450
Virtual one on one system so we’re excited to launch this as well, so now, you know we’d like to open it up for questions, I know that.
81
00:14:33.870 --> 00:14:44.430
You know some of you wanted us to talk today about our US acquire only operating income numbers but.
82
00:14:45.090 --> 00:14:52.140
Just with where the auditors are with everything getting pushed back because of all this big token stuff we just want to.
83
00:14:52.590 --> 00:15:02.460
Get the go ahead and the approval from the auditors on on the numbers before we share them with you guys I think we’ll have those in short order.
84
00:15:03.000 --> 00:15:07.080
I don’t think it’ll be you know much longer, but I think that.
85
00:15:07.710 --> 00:15:20.670
Instead of trying to show something today that might have some even more even minor modifications on them we don’t want to do that and we want to just you know also add a respect for what daughters are doing.
86
00:15:21.120 --> 00:15:35.040
Make sure that they’ve given their approval for it and that they’ve given the go ahead to to share that with you and we had hoped to have that to you by today, but unfortunately we don’t.
87
00:15:35.400 --> 00:15:43.140
But, and I, so I know some of the questions that you are going to want to ask are going to be around that specifically.
88
00:15:44.460 --> 00:15:54.060
But, knowing that we don’t have those to share with you today and we just really want you know when we scheduled this call, we had hoped that we would have those numbers ready.
89
00:15:54.510 --> 00:16:07.020
And unfortunately they’re not so, if you have any questions that we can answer related to the things that we’ve already shared then we’ll be happy to answer those questions.
90
00:16:10.890 --> 00:16:20.280
Morgan Fogg: Great Thank you Chris and we do have a couple of questions so we’ll go ahead and start with my Crawford from the Riley Mike if you want to go ahead and perfect, we can see you.
91
00:16:21.930 --> 00:16:22.680
Mike Crawford: Thanks Morgan.
92
00:16:23.760 --> 00:16:25.770
Mike Crawford: Thanks Chris so.
93
00:16:26.070 --> 00:16:26.430
Mike.
94
00:16:27.930 --> 00:16:50.010
Mike Crawford: um well one the 15.6 million is to acquire bookings are fantastic and q1 Ms the second highest ever the trailing 12 months to acquire bookings over 50 million, so what would prevent slacks from generating over 50 million of revenue in 22.
95
00:16:53.250 --> 00:17:02.610
Chris Miglino: We would have to see a significant decline in bookings between now and the end of the year, in order for that to happen, because.
96
00:17:03.180 --> 00:17:13.980
Chris Miglino: We already have a good chunk of that already you know in place, and obviously like I said earlier, if you everything that gets booked in in q1.
97
00:17:14.400 --> 00:17:26.130
Chris Miglino: Has the full year to run versus you know everything, so if q1 and q2 are as strong as we think they’re going to be then that that should not be an issue.
98
00:17:28.650 --> 00:17:30.300
Mike Crawford: Okay um.
99
00:17:31.770 --> 00:17:32.100
I.
100
00:17:34.260 --> 00:17:53.370
Mike Crawford: I guess I heard what you said about not being able to provide just acquire level more supplier level information, so I will ask about that per se, but you did say you added 24 new subscribing companies during the quarter um do you have a sense of repeat.
101
00:17:55.410 --> 00:17:58.290
Mike Crawford: Customers or or churn.
102
00:17:59.070 --> 00:18:12.870
Chris Miglino: yeah so since we took those slides out of the presentation, because they’re part of the financial discussion, but there were still at around an 87% renewal rate on on everything so that states.
103
00:18:14.010 --> 00:18:15.210
Chris Miglino: kind of consistent.
104
00:18:17.010 --> 00:18:26.490
Chris Miglino: So we’re you know we’re right there so we’re seeing continued renewal from a lot of the clients, as well as these new people join it into the platform.
105
00:18:28.170 --> 00:18:30.930
Mike Crawford: And while the.
106
00:18:33.060 --> 00:18:46.680
Mike Crawford: Number of subscribing companies is important, even more important is what kind of digital marketing services they’re they’re buying from from slack so is that a similar renewal rate in companies that have run those campaigns.
107
00:18:47.550 --> 00:18:53.490
Chris Miglino: yeah I don’t have that exact number but we’ll be sure to have that for you in the next presentation, when we.
108
00:18:55.470 --> 00:18:58.350
Chris Miglino: You know, when we do the the final numbers.
109
00:18:59.640 --> 00:19:00.840
Chris Miglino: will make sure we have that for you.
110
00:19:02.370 --> 00:19:12.570
Mike Crawford: And i’ll just test one more that are you allowed to say what your cash and security bounces today or the end of the quarter.
111
00:19:14.460 --> 00:19:33.360
Chris Miglino: I just think that we let’s just wait for that you know with all this stuff with big token like the process of getting this big token stuff on wound from tracks literally pushed the audit by almost four weeks like they were.
112
00:19:34.440 --> 00:19:51.990
Chris Miglino: It was in depth, we were waiting, you know we don’t control big token any longer, and we needed information from big token where you know pushing hard to not to be to not need to wait for information from big token and and.
113
00:19:53.550 --> 00:20:06.570
Chris Miglino: So it’s just it’s been a big overhang on getting all that done so not that we don’t know what that number is it’s just that we’d rather share it when we have everything finished, if you don’t mind.
114
00:20:08.010 --> 00:20:19.860
Mike Crawford: Okay, and then i’m almost done, first I want, I want to thank you guys for hosting our be round with securities virtually sports investor day to day, and the one on one platform work rate.
115
00:20:20.970 --> 00:20:21.540
Mike Crawford: and
116
00:20:24.000 --> 00:20:43.500
Mike Crawford: Just final question for me is regarding big tote and you have converted your securities into preferred with where you can hold a maximum of 4.9% of the common any given time, so what.
117
00:20:45.330 --> 00:20:54.900
Mike Crawford: Steps need to occur for you to be able to sell some of the common that you hold and big token that’s My final question, thank you.
118
00:20:55.920 --> 00:21:05.070
Chris Miglino: So they need to file an eight K about their merger and they need to file their 10 K once they’re eight K and they’re 10 K are.
119
00:21:06.900 --> 00:21:26.730
Chris Miglino: Our file, then we would be able to participate, just like everybody else in the in the market, but, as you can imagine, this is, you know the valuation of that piece of the business is something that’s been you know of issue right So if you just take it at the at its face value.
120
00:21:27.930 --> 00:21:38.370
Chris Miglino: it’s worth 190 $4 million for tracks, but you know, in order to realize that the price would have to stay here, and it would take us.
121
00:21:38.910 --> 00:21:52.470
Chris Miglino: 70 years at at the existing volume to realize that value so as you can imagine, this type of putting that type of asset on the books.
122
00:21:53.130 --> 00:22:00.660
Chris Miglino: Is you know could continue to create dramatic swings in the operating results for acquire.
123
00:22:01.590 --> 00:22:16.920
Chris Miglino: So you know if the stock was up 194 million and then down and other 50 million and then up 20 million, I mean it, it would create unrealistic numbers inside the acquiring tracks p&l.
124
00:22:17.910 --> 00:22:32.880
Chris Miglino: So with that’s, that is what we’re you know contending with is to you know provide realistic expectations about the true value of of that asset, so that it doesn’t.
125
00:22:34.110 --> 00:22:34.860
Chris Miglino: mask.
126
00:22:35.940 --> 00:22:40.350
Chris Miglino: The real value that’s acquire is generating for its investors.
127
00:22:42.150 --> 00:22:43.350
Mike Crawford: All right, thank you very much.
128
00:22:44.430 --> 00:22:45.000
Chris Miglino: Thanks Mike.
129
00:22:46.560 --> 00:22:52.440
Morgan Fogg: Thank you Mike up next we have john hickman from lautenberg if you want to unmute.
130
00:22:55.170 --> 00:23:05.910
Jon Hickman: Okay, thanks for taking my call or my questions of what happened, could you talk about the q3 bookings from last year seems like they were down.
131
00:23:07.980 --> 00:23:14.460
Jon Hickman: kind of bucking the trend there for the rest of the year was there something special about that quarter.
132
00:23:16.260 --> 00:23:18.210
Chris Miglino: i’m now, it was just.
133
00:23:19.620 --> 00:23:31.800
Chris Miglino: I think that quarter, we just had a you know a little bit of a pause in the summertime because it’s a little harder to get CEOs and and had people on the phone in July and August.
134
00:23:32.400 --> 00:23:44.760
Chris Miglino: So I think we, we saw maybe a little bit of seasonality there on closing up those transactions and then I think you you saw that come back you know into into.
135
00:23:45.750 --> 00:23:57.420
Chris Miglino: October November, December into the into the fourth quarter last year and I think that’s why I saw a big jump also in the number in the fourth quarter, where we had our largest quarter ever.
136
00:23:58.500 --> 00:23:59.190
Chris Miglino: In bookings.
137
00:23:59.640 --> 00:24:02.520
Jon Hickman: And then going back to your slide about warrants.
138
00:24:03.930 --> 00:24:07.200
Jon Hickman: what’s the exercise price for the warrants that expire in April.
139
00:24:08.850 --> 00:24:14.310
Chris Miglino: Most of them are $3 and the but the bulk of them are at at $3.
140
00:24:14.910 --> 00:24:17.010
Jon Hickman: And the ones in the fall.
141
00:24:18.360 --> 00:24:19.650
Chris Miglino: The ones in the fall.
142
00:24:22.110 --> 00:24:32.130
Chris Miglino: I can get that tea I think it’s around 375 I believe the if you looked at the average of those it’s around 375 Mike Mike do you know the answer to that.
143
00:24:34.740 --> 00:24:36.480
Michael Malone: i’m just pulling it up right now, but I think.
144
00:24:36.690 --> 00:24:40.050
Michael Malone: to your point, Chris it’s about three it’s 375 on average.
145
00:24:40.290 --> 00:24:44.850
Jon Hickman: So theoretically those well technically they’re in the money right now.
146
00:24:45.870 --> 00:24:52.860
Jon Hickman: And if the stock price stays the same people would exercise rather than let those go okay.
147
00:24:56.100 --> 00:24:57.150
Jon Hickman: let’s see.
148
00:25:03.150 --> 00:25:04.110
Jon Hickman: I think.
149
00:25:05.220 --> 00:25:10.080
Jon Hickman: The rest of my questions were answered except the ones that you can’t answer today.
150
00:25:12.600 --> 00:25:14.220
Jon Hickman: i’ll just pass it on to the next.
151
00:25:14.250 --> 00:25:15.570
Jon Hickman: questioner okay.
152
00:25:16.290 --> 00:25:17.160
Chris Miglino: Thank you very much john.
153
00:25:18.300 --> 00:25:22.980
Morgan Fogg: Thanks john up next we have Jimmy calorie from Dawson James.
154
00:25:24.540 --> 00:25:25.380
James Mcilree: yeah thanks a lot.
155
00:25:26.580 --> 00:25:30.300
James Mcilree: Chris can you talk a little bit about the the bookings.
156
00:25:31.830 --> 00:25:46.470
James Mcilree: The the increase in the past couple of quarters you suggested that part of it is seasonal but is there something else going on, is there a function of how the market is moving or salesforce increase or or something else what’s.
157
00:25:47.070 --> 00:25:47.730
Chris Miglino: yeah good.
158
00:25:47.970 --> 00:25:58.710
Chris Miglino: driver yeah when we when we had a hit in the market over the first quarter here, we saw an increase in the number of companies that were interested in our services.
159
00:25:59.760 --> 00:26:01.950
Chris Miglino: So those definitely you know.
160
00:26:03.630 --> 00:26:19.440
Chris Miglino: We didn’t know what that would look like because we only been in the market, during a uptrend and and not a downtrend, so I think that we’re finding that both stocks moving up and also moving down are.
161
00:26:20.880 --> 00:26:31.290
Chris Miglino: You know, driving sales for the company, so when you’re you know when you have stuff coming down everybody wants to know who’s selling their stock who’s holding the major positions.
162
00:26:32.580 --> 00:26:40.860
Chris Miglino: So we’ve you know we’ve gotten a lot of new business because of that and we’ve also increased our our.
163
00:26:41.460 --> 00:26:48.480
Chris Miglino: Analysts team, we have hired a head of capital markets, that is, you know, working with all of our customers to.
164
00:26:48.900 --> 00:26:58.500
Chris Miglino: help them understand what’s going on within their individual stocks and and helping them leverage the pot of the platform to its fullest extent.
165
00:26:58.920 --> 00:27:13.800
Chris Miglino: So that they get the most out of it, so is the increase in in bookings due to a you know this, the market moving one way or another, I think it has an impact, I think that.
166
00:27:14.670 --> 00:27:31.050
Chris Miglino: But also we’ve hired a lot of new sales people that are now hitting their stride they were new in the middle of last year, and are are now all contributing into the process so.
167
00:27:32.160 --> 00:27:43.620
Chris Miglino: You know they’re no longer in the training process they’ve been here at least six months, plus and have a detailed understanding of of everything and are doing a fantastic job in in talking to all types of companies.
168
00:27:45.240 --> 00:27:50.250
Chris Miglino: So I think that that’s why we’re seeing this continued increase in sales.
169
00:27:51.660 --> 00:27:56.910
James Mcilree: And can you share with us how many sales people you had at the middle of last year versus what you have now.
170
00:27:57.840 --> 00:28:00.270
Chris Miglino: yeah at the middle of last year, I think.
171
00:28:02.190 --> 00:28:03.360
Chris Miglino: I think we had.
172
00:28:05.520 --> 00:28:06.420
Chris Miglino: Like five.
173
00:28:07.920 --> 00:28:10.560
Chris Miglino: And we’ve added an additional.
174
00:28:13.170 --> 00:28:25.860
Chris Miglino: we’ve added an additional five so we’re close up to around 10 sales people in that in that is, including all of us, you know that that sell so.
175
00:28:29.010 --> 00:28:35.850
Chris Miglino: And those you know those additional sales, people are are bringing in deals now and they’re starting to contribute to the process.
176
00:28:37.830 --> 00:28:47.310
James Mcilree: And is that salesforce is that going to be added to either significantly or modestly over the next 12 months.
177
00:28:47.880 --> 00:28:58.950
Chris Miglino: I think everybody that we are have either hired or are in discussions to hire right now is that’s it and we’re going to stay put with that.
178
00:28:59.730 --> 00:29:11.460
Chris Miglino: For probably a 12 month period, unless there’s somebody amazing that that comes to our attention, but I think at this at this point where you know we’re sat on what we’re going to do.
179
00:29:13.620 --> 00:29:17.880
James Mcilree: Right and my last one is, can you talk a little bit about.
180
00:29:18.930 --> 00:29:29.700
James Mcilree: listed versus non listed business i’m not sure if you can talk about revenue, but if you can that’d be great if you can then how about bookings listed versus non listed bookings.
181
00:29:30.000 --> 00:29:34.350
Chris Miglino: Well, our goal is to increase the number of.
182
00:29:36.000 --> 00:29:50.340
Chris Miglino: listed companies significantly this this year that’s one of our key mandates for the year, so the the team is spending a lot of time calling on you know listed companies, but by no means are we.
183
00:29:51.690 --> 00:30:03.060
Chris Miglino: You know, are we shy or having are adverse to working with the smaller companies that that were out there we’ve been a smaller company ourselves, and we understand what it’s like.
184
00:30:03.510 --> 00:30:16.650
Chris Miglino: To be there and we’ve you know we built this platform, because of the things that we needed as a small public company, so I don’t have the exact numbers for you here, but when we do our.
185
00:30:17.670 --> 00:30:19.980
Chris Miglino: presentation will have the exact numbers for you.
186
00:30:23.940 --> 00:30:30.120
Chris Miglino: Unless like unless unless Mike has that at his fingertips Mike do you happen to have that, by any chance.
187
00:30:30.270 --> 00:30:38.970
Michael Malone: You know I don’t I don’t have the actual number, but I do know, Chris is, as you were saying that you know there’s been a there’s there’s certainly has been an uptick in in the.
188
00:30:39.450 --> 00:30:54.090
Michael Malone: percentage of our overall bookings coming from listed companies in the in the in the in the first quarter, you know I think it’s around closer to 30 30% 35% of the total, but I will get you the get you the exact numbers.
189
00:30:57.030 --> 00:31:00.150
