  • “we will no longer be providing forward-looking guidance and are withdrawing our full year guidance at this time.”

“Given the macro challenges in the consumer electronics sector and the strategic process we've initiated to evaluate opportunities for the sale of the company, we will no longer be providing forward-looking guidance and are withdrawing our full year guidance at this time.” Speaker 3, CFO
