The past year has resulted in tremendous progress, highlighted by the on-time national launch of faidr on February 15th and the subsequent release of key cost-per-install and monthly user metrics that exceeded expectations. The last 120 days have seen an intense all-hands-on-deck effort by the team to optimize the core metrics needed to support a viable business. Although the optimization process will continue in perpetuity, the results we have seen across Q3 and Q4 to date have given us the confidence to provide revenue guidance for the first time. A major milestone for the company. We look forward to providing the details and further growth updates on the webcast.”
