Thanks for your feedback, we really appreciate it. As with all publishing companies, Future has experienced the need to transition into a digital media business. We've successfully done this and it's been testament to the handwork of the team. Our digital brands are flourishing and the business is moving in some incredibly exciting directions. Obviously, with this evolution comes a great amount of change, both to work processes and the products we offer. Through staff conferences, town halls and regular updates, we like to keep our staff informed and engaged in these decisions during the process. We're proud of the heritage of our brands and we have great people. We also need to remain forward focused and the people in the business need to reflect this. Our people have got us to where we are today and our teams' passions constantly reflect and align with our audiences' passions.
