Good afternoon, and welcome to the WesBanco Third Quarter 2023 Earnings Conference Call. All participants will be in listen-only mode. Please note, this event is being recorded. I would now like to turn the conference over to John Iannone, Senior Vice President of Investor Relations. Please go ahead.
Thank you. Good afternoon, and welcome to WesBanco, Inc.'s third quarter 2023 earnings conference call. Leading the call today are Jeff Jackson, President and Chief Executive Officer; and Dan Weiss, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer. Today’s call, an archive of which will be available on our website for one year, contains forward-looking information. Cautionary statements about this information and reconciliations of non-GAAP measures are included in our earnings related materials issued yesterday afternoon, as well as our other SEC filings and investor materials. These materials are available on the Investor Relations section of our website, wesbanco.com. All statements speak only as of October 26, 2023, and WesBanco undertakes no obligation to update them. I would now like to turn the call over to Jeff. Jeff?
Thanks, John, and good afternoon. On today's call, we will review our results for the third quarter of 2023, and provide an update of our operations and current 2023 outlook. Key takeaways from the call today are: Solid financial performance with deposit and loan growth and stable fee income trends; maintain strong capital levels and key credit quality measures, which have remained at low levels and favorable to peer bank averages. We remain focused on disciplined expense management and generating positive operating leverage, while continuing to invest in attractive long-term growth prospects. For the third quarter of 2023, we returned deposit balances to year-end 2022 levels and delivered another quarter of year-over-year loan growth at 10%, while maintaining strong credit quality metrics. Our solid financial results for the quarter reflect the strength of our franchise and the competitiveness of our growth strategies and teams in the current environment. For the quarter ending September 30, 2023, we reported net income of $35 million or $0.59 per share and pre-tax, pre-provision income of $51 million, when excluding after-tax merger and restructuring charges. Our capital position continues to provide financial and operational flexibility as demonstrated by our CET1 ratio of 11%. The key story for the third quarter was the continuation of solid deposit and loan growth while maintaining our strong credit standards. Our key credit quality measures continue to remain at relatively low levels and favorable to all banks with assets between $10 billion and $25 billion. Further, total loans past due, criticized and classified loans, non-performing loans and non-performing assets as percentages of the loan portfolio and total assets have remained low from a historical perspective and within a consistent range over the last several quarters. As we mentioned last quarter, both our commercial and retail teams have and continue to make concerted efforts to help us grow deposit levels. These strong efforts are demonstrated by September 30th deposit levels increasing 1.8% quarter-over-quarter to $13.1 billion. In fact, our deposits are now back to our year-end 2022 level, a remarkable achievement, considering the turmoil across the banking industry earlier this year. Furthermore, our commercial bankers continue to work diligently on deepening our commercial relationships, with focus on loan swaps and deposits. Due to their efforts, we saw a slight uptick in the percentage of commercial deposits as a percentage of our total deposits during the quarter. As an example, a customer in one of our legacy West Virginia markets recently grew its banking relationship with us significantly. Thanks to our focus on building long-term relationships versus simply executing transactions. This customer began with us in 2016 as a small business entity, and over the next few years, grew substantially. Our trusted partnership with this customer has grown to an eight-figure deposit relationship. I am proud of the hard work of all our teams as they help our customers meet their financial goals. We reported total loan growth during the third quarter of 10% year-over-year and 7% quarter-over-quarter annualized, driven by our commercial and residential lending teams. Despite the industry headwinds, our right-sized residential teams continue to find new home purchase and construction loan opportunities. Total commercial loan growth increased 8% year-over-year and 6% sequentially annualized, which continues to be driven by our strong lending teams and loan production offices. I am really excited about our newest LPO in Chattanooga, as they have hit the ground running and are bringing in a number of new C&I relationships. Our commercial loan pipeline as of October 16th was approximately $860 million, a 4% increase from the level of September 30th, as our teams continue to find business opportunities to replenish the pipeline that has been driving our strong loan growth. As I mentioned, our four loan production offices are performing very well and are now contributing approximately 25% to the commercial pipeline. In just three months, our Chattanooga LPO is already 8% of the pipeline. Further, the growth opportunities of our loan production office and lender hiring initiatives, we expect to continue to improve as they gain additional traction. And with a loan-to-deposit ratio of 87%, we have ample lending capacity to continue to support our customers. We continue to make important growth-oriented strategic investments to build upon our successful commercial hiring and LPO initiatives, which supplement our focus on managing costs. During the summer, we introduced our new WesBanco One account which has a set of comprehensive features and tools designed to help our customers through their financial journey with features and digital banking tools to help them reach their financial goals. I am pleased to say that we have seen great adoption by both existing and new customers. In addition to our renewed focus on commercial loan swaps, we have been transforming our treasury management business to more of a sales-oriented organization while equipping it with new products that will enhance our customer relationships. In the next couple of months, we will be rolling out our integrated receivables and payables and purchase card products for our commercial customers. While we provide more details on the 2024 revenue expectations during our January call, we expect these new fee revenue streams to quickly become meaningful from both a more comprehensive customer relationship and bottom-line profitability perspectives. These are examples of our commitment to innovation and investments that serve customers better and drive sustainable growth. I firmly believe in the long-term growth prospects we are building for our customers, communities, employees, and shareholders. I would now like to turn the call over to Dan Weiss, our CFO, for an update on our third quarter financial results and current outlook for the fourth quarter of 2023. Dan?
Thanks, Jeff, and good afternoon. Our third quarter results continued to demonstrate the strength of our franchise and successful execution of our strategic initiatives, reflecting both solid loan and deposit growth as well as strong capital levels and credit quality. For the quarter ending September 30, 2023, we have reported GAAP net income available to common shareholders of $34.3 million or $0.59 per share and $116.5 million or $1.96 per share year-to-date. Net income available to common shareholders excluding after-tax restructuring and merger-related expenses for the year-to-date period was $119.5 million or $2.01 per diluted share, as compared to $133.7 million or $2.21 per diluted share in the prior year period. The primary driver in reported results year-over-year reflects the impact of the higher interest rate environment and the recording of a provision expense this year as compared to a provision release in the prior year period. Total assets of $17.3 billion as of September 30th included total portfolio loans of $11.3 billion and securities of $3.4 billion. Total portfolio loans grew nearly 8% year-to-date annualized, reflecting the strength of our markets and lending teams combined with our strategic lending initiatives. In addition, roughly 53% of the year-to-date loan growth was funded through reductions in the securities portfolio, which totaled 19.7% of total assets at the end of the quarter. Commercial real estate loan payoffs returned to a more historical quarterly level during the third quarter, totaling approximately $94 million, while C&I line utilization as of the end of the quarter declined 490 basis points year-over-year to 31%. Residential mortgage originations, which were down 30% year-over-year, totaled approximately $165 million in the third quarter, with roughly 55% of the originations sold into the secondary market. The third quarter total deposits increased sequentially to a level consistent with year-end 2022, reflecting the deposit gathering efforts by our retail and commercial teams combined with $64 million of additional brokered deposits. We continued to experience some shift in the mix of our deposits with non-interest bearing demand deposits down 2.7% from the second quarter. However, total demand deposits and non-interest bearing deposits represented 57% and 32% of total deposits, respectively, which remained consistent with the ranges and averages since December of 2019. Furthermore, we utilized our deposit growth to pay down higher-cost Federal Home Loan Bank borrowings, which decreased $255 million sequentially to $1.1 billion. The net interest margin of 3.03% for the third quarter decreased 15 basis points sequentially, primarily due to higher funding costs from increasing deposit costs and continued remix from non-interest bearing deposits into higher tiered money market and certificate of deposit accounts, partially offset by the deployment of excess cash into higher yielding loans and the pay down of higher-cost wholesale borrowings. Total deposit funding costs, including non-interest bearing deposits for the third quarter were 136 basis points, an increase of 33 basis points quarter-over-quarter and 119 basis points year-over-year, representing a beta of 40% on the 300 basis point increase in the Fed funds rate since late September of 2022. Our third quarter loan yield of 5.46% is up 121 basis points year-over-year, also representing a 40% beta as we continue to originate new commercial loans, yielding in the high 7% range, as can be seen on Slide 5 of the supplemental earnings presentation. Since commercial swap fees have become a material component of our fee income, we are now detailing these fees in a new income statement line item titled net swap fee and valuation income, which includes both new swap fees and fair market value adjustments on existing swaps. For the third quarter of 2023, non-interest income of $30.9 million decreased $1.4 million year-over-year, due to a $1.5 million gain on the sale of an underlying equity investment held by WesBanco Community Development Corporation in the prior year period. Excluding this prior year gain on sale, non-interest income would have been essentially flat year-over-year, primarily reflecting the strength in commercial swap fees. Operating expenses continue to reflect nationwide deflationary pressures as well as long-term growth investments including previously completed elements of our strategic loan production office and lender hiring initiatives. Excluding restructuring and merger-related expenses, non-interest expense for the three months ended September 30, 2023, totaled $97.3 million, which increased due to higher salaries and wages, benefits, equipment, and software expense and FDIC insurance. Salaries and wages were higher due to midyear merit increases, and employee benefits expense increased primarily from rising healthcare costs. Equipment and software was up from the continuation of our ATM upgrade project, while other expenses included a one-time $800,000 credit from our payment processing business. Our capital position has remained strong. As demonstrated by regulatory ratios, they are above the applicable well-capitalized standards and favorable tangible equity levels compared to peers. Our tangible common equity to tangible assets as of September 30, 2023 was 7.26%, up 4 basis points year-over-year or 6.33% when including held-to-maturity unrealized losses. We continue to believe that we are well-positioned for any operating environment as we actively manage our liquidity risk to ensure adequate funds to meet changes in loan demand, unexpected outflows in deposits and other borrowings, as well as take advantage of market opportunities as they arise. We will provide our 2024 outlook during our January earnings call. But regarding our current outlook for the remainder of 2023, we are modeling Fed funds to remain unchanged at 5.5% with a couple of rate cuts in the back half of 2024, reflecting the current operating environment of higher funding costs and some deposit mix shift into the higher yielding deposit products, we continue to model some contraction in the fourth quarter net interest margin, but at a lesser rate than the last couple of quarters before beginning to stabilize in 2024. Trust fees and securities brokerage revenue should continue to benefit modestly from organic growth and will be impacted by equity and fixed-income market trends. Electronic banking fees and service charges on deposits will remain in a similar range as the last few quarters and they are subject to overall consumer spending behaviors. Mortgage banking will reflect seasonality and be impacted by industry-wide lower production trends in the current residential lending environment. New commercial swap fee income, which is up more than 150% year-to-date, is still on track to reach approximately $8 million for the year. Our efforts to enhance our treasury management services continue to progress well. We anticipate rolling out new products such as integrated payables and receivables and related cards in the coming months, providing a lift to 2024 fee income. We continue to focus on disciplined expense management to drive positive operating leverage, while also making appropriate growth-oriented investments in support of long-term sustainable revenue growth and shareholder return. In support of this, we have been reviewing a number of initiatives, including an ongoing efficiency review of our retail network to optimize branch-level staffing and reallocate resources into additional revenue-generating hires that should benefit 2024. During the past quarter plus, we've also made efforts to right-size our residential lending operations to better align with industry-wide mortgage lending expectations. Considering the expected higher for longer rate environment, we have reduced the overall staffing of this business with an annual expense savings of approximately $3 million, which should begin to be reflected in the run rate during the fourth quarter. While software and equipment will come in higher due to the upgrade of another 50 ATMs placed into service here in the third quarter, most other expenses should remain in similar ranges to the third quarter, after also adding back the $800,000 one-time credit in other operating expenses. The provision for credit losses under CECL will depend upon changes to the macroeconomic forecast and qualitative factors as well as various credit quality metrics, including potential charge-offs, criticized and classified loan balances, delinquencies, changes in prepayment speeds and future loan growth. And lastly, we currently anticipate our full-year effective tax rate to be between 17% and 18% subject to changes in tax regulations and taxable income levels. Operator, we are now ready to take questions. Would you please review the instructions?
Our first question comes from Casey Whitman of Piper Sandler. Please go ahead.
Maybe I would start just, given the success you have had with the LPOs, do you have longer-term plans to open others and sort of what are some of the markets that might make sense for you to deploy that strategy?
Yes. We are really proud of our success in the LPOs. I would say, we are still looking to fill in more in Tennessee. We still have room to grow our Nashville LPO. Other cities in East Tennessee are very attractive to us. And then I would also say Virginia as well. I think that would be a natural progression from our acquisition role of line.
Any particular markets in Virginia that would interest you the most?
I would say, Northern Virginia being probably our top market. And then, we have looked at Richmond before and that potentially could be one down the road.
Okay. Thank you. And then last one for me. Just unpacking that margin guide you just gave. Sounded like, hopefully, will bottom in the fourth quarter and then maybe stabilize. I guess my question would be, what would it take to start to see the margin grind higher? Do we need rates to go down? Do we just need time? Sort of what's your bigger picture thoughts on that?
Yes, Casey. In my prepared comments, I mentioned that we do expect a slight contraction in margins in the fourth quarter, likely around half of what we experienced between the second and third quarters, which was 15 basis points. So we’re anticipating roughly half of that in the fourth quarter. Looking ahead, considering our rate expectations and the potential for rate cuts in the latter half of the year, we expect margins to remain fairly flat over the next couple of quarters. The anticipated rate cuts are likely to trigger the positive momentum needed for margins to start improving.
The next question comes from Daniel Tamayo of Raymond James.
I'm having some audio issues, just want to make sure you guys can hear me okay.
Good afternoon, Daniel. We can hear you.
Just kind of continuing on the margin, but just looking specifically at the CDs that are on the book, that are still relatively low cost. Just wondering if you can give us an idea of when those mature over the next few quarters?
Yes, Danny. Overall, about half of the CD book was added in the last few quarters, largely due to the 4.5%, 7-month CD special. We anticipate much of this will mature relatively soon, likely more in the first quarter, and we expect it to mature at a similar pace. For the upcoming year, we expect around 80% of the CD book to mature, with a turnover rate of approximately 2.88%. This current yield of 2.88% is expected to remain as we plan to keep the 7-month CD special at the 4.5% rate in the near term, and we generally foresee that customers will transition to and remain in that product.
And then does your guidance on the margin assume any incremental change in the level of borrowings you have or just how you're thinking about that?
Yes. I would say wholesale borrowings are relatively stable. We have approximately $260 million in brokered deposits, which we expect to mostly roll off by late spring, with about $50 million anticipated to roll off in the fourth quarter. Regarding our margin outlook, I noted in the last call that in the second quarter, we saw about $200 million shift from non-interest bearing deposits to interest bearing. This quarter, that amount was around $115 million, which is roughly half. Based on that, we anticipate that about half of the $115 million will also shift from non-interest bearing to interest bearing. Additionally, we observed significant growth in our CD book, which exceeded our projections, but we still expect there to be some growth in CDs. However, I would estimate that the growth we saw in CDs from the second quarter to the third quarter will continue at about half that rate into the fourth quarter.
Yes. I would just also add, as you saw, we had pretty good success growing our deposits and funding our loan growth along with, as you know, we get about $100 million a quarter off our securities. So, I would think going forward, all the brokered deposits would just runoff. I don't see a need for us to be in that market.
I was considering the 1.2 billion from FHLB, and I assume that it will primarily remain on the balance sheet.
Yes. That's our current modeling, but we've mentioned before that we have a commercial deposit campaign which will depend on how successful our deposit growth is over the next quarter or two.
And loan growth. Depending on deposit loan growth, that could go probably down.
The next question comes from Manuel Navas of D.A. Davidson.
Roughly, what has been the lift at your commercial lenders kind of since the incentive structure has been changed for deposit growth? I know you brought it up as a percentage of the whole deposit book. But do you kind of look at the commercial deposits group, but do you kind of look at it just for the lenders themselves?
We do. I'm trying to understand. Can you restate that question? I'm sorry; I didn't exactly understand what you're asking.
How much of the deposit growth has come specifically from the commercial lenders? I think you changed the incentive structure this year. Not just this quarter, but for the entire year, how much of the deposit growth is attributed to them alone?
Yes. I would say, Manuel, approximately 75% of deposit growth has come from the commercial side, particularly that market product has been incredibly successful.
Yes. And as we said, that change in incentives as we hadn't had in our history of our bank, has really made a big difference. And we've also really started monitoring it and really talking about it throughout the company, and really have a big deposit campaign going on right now that's moving in the right positive direction. So, we really feel good about growing deposits going forward as we showed this quarter. And once again, that would eliminate us for brokered deposits and could really help us on the NIM going forward.
Would you say that deposit growth is a wildcard that could improve your margin outlook?
Absolutely, it could. Yes, it depends on our loan production and loan growth, but yes. As you saw this quarter, we reduced some of our FHLB borrowings because of it. So that could continue.
And the loan growth that you're getting and the pipeline is nice and strong. How sensitive are you to kind of macro conditions there? Or do you feel like you're just gaining market share and still being selective anyways?
I feel like we're gaining market share, but we're still maintaining our conservative credit standards. We have not changed any credit standards. We have always been conservative related to that. And so for us, it's really about hiring. We've got a lot of new people, new commercial lenders that are bringing in their solid credit customers. And so that's what we are seeing. And then plus with the expansion of our new markets, that's where we are getting the growth. We have not changed any credit standards. We are still being obviously, extremely careful as it relates to hospitality and then office. And so, a lot of it is coming through C&I new relationships.
The next question comes from Russell Gunther of Stephens. Please go ahead.
Good afternoon guys. I wanted to follow-up on the expense conversation, Dan. I appreciate the puts and takes. It sounds like we end the year in a pretty similar place from a quarterly perspective, as we finished this quarter, thinking about the one-time credit, bringing in the cost saves from the mortgage rationalization. And then I think I heard you guys mention continued investment, but also some further rationalization. So I think we have talked about a core growth rate on expenses in the low single digits in the past. I mean, is that the right way to think about it going forward as you balance efficiencies and further investment?
I believe that thinking in terms of low to mid-single digits is appropriate. We will keep investing, and if those investments lead to slightly higher expenses but also result in better returns on equity, we would proceed with that strategy. Specifically, looking at the fourth quarter and starting from the third quarter figure of $97.3 million, I would incorporate the $800,000 one-time credit that impacted other operating expenses. Regarding salaries, we have midyear merit increases for hourly employees that have not yet fully influenced the third quarter figures, and these take effect in August, leading to some natural uptick. However, as mentioned earlier, we also have offsets in this area, so salaries are expected to remain relatively flat. Additionally, we are investing in a completely new ATM fleet, having deployed 50 in the third quarter and planning to add 33 more in the fourth quarter. I would estimate that the related software and equipment expenses could rise by around $400,000 when building from third quarter figures. Considering these factors and the $800,000 credit, I would view this as contributing roughly $1.2 million to the third quarter's run rate.
Okay. I guess, just a follow-up to that would be, should I be thinking about expense savings from the mortgage vertical is hitting that fourth quarter? Is that more of a '24 impact?
Yes. That's fourth quarter.
Yes.
Okay, thank you for the clarification. My final question pertains to the uptick in criticized and classified assets. While it appears unchanged year-over-year and other leading credit indicators remain benign, could you provide some insight on the migration this quarter?
Sure. It was a few projects, CRE projects, different industries, different areas that just ticked into the C&C. Once again, we remain in very good shape, better than our peers and feel really good. Obviously, it fluctuates quarter-to-quarter or so, but it was just a few transactions.
Yes. I would say almost the outlier would have been the first and second quarter coming in at only right around 1.6% of total loans.
The next question comes from Dave Bishop of Hovde Group.
In terms of going back to loan growth, obviously year-over-year in that double-digit range 10%, ticked down this quarter, I think 6% and change. Do you think mid-single digits is sort of the new environment, the new norm in terms of what the market gives you even with some of the lift outs, do you think you can still be in sort of that high-single-digit, maybe low-double-digit growth rate?
We always target mid to upper-single-digit. I think one of the things if you look at, we had a higher number of payoffs in third quarter than we did in second quarter. So I think we would have been very similar loan growth, had we not had the higher payoffs. I do believe that adding all the new talent we have, increasing the LPOs, I think, does give us some momentum. We did that kind of mid to upper-single-digit growth. But it's an interesting environment today and I'm not going to commit to either number, but that's kind of what we target as mid to upper and we feel really good where we sit today.
Great job on increasing the swap fees. I'm curious about where you think those could go, both in absolute terms and as a percentage of total fee income.
Sure. As I mentioned last year, we generated $4 million in swap fees and we're on track to double that this year. We expect to keep growing this as we expand our lender base and provide ongoing training on swaps. Our goal is to target swap fees to reach 30% of total revenue. While this is a long-term objective, we believe it's one of several strategies to achieve that target.
Yes. And I would just add, this quarter with swap fees including fair value adjustments coming in at $3.8 million, that was pretty remarkable. It certainly exceeded some expectations there. But just want to point out that $1.3 million there is a fair market value adjustment and typically that's something that is tough to model and not something that we do model typically. So we obviously saw a 75 basis point kind of rate increase from second quarter to third quarter in 5- and 10-year, and that's what really drove the $1.3 million positive fair value adjustment. So as we look forward into the fourth quarter and beyond, that may or may not be there in future quarters.
The next question comes from Karl Shepard of RBC Capital Markets.
I wanted to follow-up on some of the commentary on the treasury products. You guys sound like you're pretty bullish maybe about the fee revenue opportunity there next year. But curious, are you assuming any deposit or funding benefits from rolling those out across your lender base?
Yes. We are very bullish about the treasury management products. We're just starting to roll them out in the fourth quarter. We expect to see a nice benefit in next year in 2024. But that's one of the reasons we're rolling them out. And with our focus on C&I lending, we do believe that that's going to drive some nice deposit growth for us. We've also, as I believe I've mentioned, really retooled our treasury team, turning them more into a sales function, before I think it was a little bit more of a support function. And so, we've kind of reorganized that. And so we do believe that, that should give us some nice deposit lift next year.
And then as a follow-up, we talked about loan growth a little bit, but I'm just curious if you could parse out what the contribution you expect from some of the newer lenders and LPOs is. Is that, what's driving the loan growth or is it really broader than that? Thank you.
I think it's broader than that. I do believe the LPOs, as I mentioned are 25% of the current pipeline. So I do believe they will drive more of the growth, but I believe it's the whole company, right? So we've seen nice CRE growth through that group. And other areas, other markets are driving nice loan growth as well. But I do believe the LPOs are kind of an accelerant to our loan growth and should contribute pretty solidly next year.
The next question comes from Daniel Cardenas of Janney Montgomery Scott.
So I noticed your securities portfolio has kind of been declining here over the last several quarters. Just wanted to get a sense of what kind of maturities we can see here in Q4 and how are those proceeds going to be put to work now that your securities to asset number is sub 20%?
Yes. Great question, Dan. So, and Jeff kind of alluded to this earlier that we expect and we've been seeing the securities portfolio kick off about $100 million per quarter. And I would say that's probably 50% maturity, 50% just amortizing securities, cash flows from principal and interest payments. But we've obviously had held a little heavier security portfolio in the past, particularly as we had quite a bit of stimulus deposits come in, and generally a little heavier than our peers. But today, in this environment, we are looking at holding securities longer term in the high teens as a percentage of total assets, so somewhere between in that 17% to 19% range is kind of our longer-term target. That provides us plenty of liquidity, but also provides us an opportunity to reinvest in higher yielding loans. So today, I would say, we're going to continue to work the portfolio down towards that target. And basically, we are reinvesting each quarter $100 million that's yielding 2.5% into loans that are yielding 8% plus. So we would like that math as well.
And then if you can remind me in the loan portfolio, do you have any SNC exposure?
We do not. We do not participate in any SNCs that I'm aware of.
The last question is a follow-up from Manuel Navas of D.A. Davidson. Please go ahead.
I wanted to follow up on the hospitality loan that had a specific reserve created for it. I'd like to hear more about that.
Sure. It is a loan we have had on the books for a while. It is hospitality in Downtown Baltimore, near the Inner Harbor. And it has really struggled since COVID. We have had it, obviously reserved for. But, we had an appraisal come in right near the end of the quarter that created us to take an additional reserve on it, about $2.8 million. We are working with the borrower. They are committed to the project. But at this point, that was what increased our reserve this quarter.
What's the total loan at this point? And what's the total reserves on it?
Yes. The loan balance is $12 million. Net of reserve is $9 million.
This concludes our question-and-answer session. I would like to turn the conference back over to Jeff Jackson for any closing remarks.
Thank you for joining us today. During the third quarter, we generated solid deposit and loan growth, and maintained strong capital levels and credit quality. We remain well-capitalized with solid liquidity and a strong balance sheet with capacity to fund loan growth and focus on strengthening our diversified earnings streams for long-term success with new capabilities and strategies. We look forward to speaking with you in the near future at one of our upcoming investor events. Please have a good day. Thank you.
The conference has now concluded. Thank you for attending today's presentation and you may now disconnect.
