Please go ahead. Thank you very much, Aisha. First of all, before I begin, I would like to thank our incredible community of institutional retail investors. You've all been standing by me and this incredible business we've built through every single high and every single low. Your belief has not only endured, but it has also fueled everything we have and we will build. Thank you. I would like to quickly give you an update as to where we are with Gorilla Technology as a company today, but more importantly, talk to you about how we have evolved as a business starting from 2022 all the way up until 2024, going into 2025. In 2022, we were largely a regional player. We had limited global reach and an overcomplicated capital structure and a business that was technically promising, but commercially constrained as well at the same time. Fast forward to today, what you're seeing is a radically transformed globalization built for scale, sustainability, and dominance in some of the fastest growing markets on the planet. Now, in 2023, we began our shift. We doubled down on our global expansion. We cleaned up the business, rebuilt the leadership team, stabilized our operations, and began unlocking national-level opportunities. Now, our revenue, as you all know, jumped by about 189% to about $64.7 million. We also turned a prior year with net loss of $87 million into a meaningful net profit. 2024 is when the engine truly fired. We delivered about $74 million plus in revenue, exceeding guidance and reinforcing the strength of our global sales execution. Our net income, excluding one-off non-cash items, was to about $21 million plus, and that was surpassing guidance by 253% plus. That was purely driven by disciplined cost control and sharp operational focus. Our adjusted EBITDA reached about $20 million plus, outperforming estimates by a little over 70% plus, and that shows operational efficiency and a scalable business model. More importantly, if you look at our operating income, excluding exceptional items, we climbed to a little over $19 million. That exceeded the guidance by well over 40%, highlighting also robust performance across the business. What was also very notable to learn, which I am sure the market has already realized, is that we beat market expectations on adjusted EPS by a little over 470%, reflecting our strong underlying profitability of the business. These are not just paper gains. These are hard-earned results, delivering world-held fixed security across five different continents, securing sovereign-level infrastructure projects, and scaling long-term recurring revenue streams. Here is the question we keep hearing, especially from skeptics and other naysayers, if I may. How is Gorilla signing multi-billion dollar deals? How are we building a $6 billion pipeline? Is that even real? These are questions I've been faced on a daily basis. Let me be clear. We're not out there cold pitching. These are inbound opportunities that are coming to us because the market is finally catching up to what we have built. Whether it's governments, strategic funds, global partners, they're seeking out to lead their national digital transformation programs, and they're seeking us. When you deliver on the ground, like what we've done in Taiwan, Thailand, Latin America, United Kingdom, more troubles. When you're recognized by someone like Global Edge Fund as the exclusive AI and digital infrastructure partner, doors open. When a major platform such as One Amazon selects Gorilla AI Stack to support their mission-critical operations to create a tokenized nature capital, you do not have to convince anyone that we're real. The work speaks for itself. Yes, we have nearly $2 billion plus in signed contracts or contracts won to date. These are not theoretical. They are structured commercial agreements with detailed scope, phased delivery schedules, and monetization milestones. The remaining $4.6 billion pipeline is not fluff. It includes late-stage contracts, formal MoUs, transitioning into final terms, and more importantly, government-backed frameworks with long-term commercial scope. Now, I want to address a very, very common misunderstanding. Just because an MoU is signed or even a contract is secured, it does not mean the revenue falls from the tree the next day. This is not a plug and play. We're not selling pre-packaged software over the checkout counter, and we're definitely not selling taco trucks. What we are doing is far more ambitious, and we are far more complex. Before the first dollar is earned, I need to educate everybody as to how this goes by. Things we need to do, we must, first of all, understand the client's national priorities, map the real-world complexity of legacy infrastructure, scope and architect future state environments, become what we call build trust as a strategic partner, not just as a transactional vendor, engage in solution design, proof of concept validation, architecture planning, compliance alignment, and finally, most importantly, we have to work with multiple global partners, often under sovereign-level scrutiny. Only then do we move into delivery, and delivery at a national scale takes time. Why? Because when you're digitizing an energy grid or reimagining national cybersecurity infrastructure or building the smart ecosystem across thousands of institutions, speed without structure is failure. When I say we are signing long-term deals, it's not to impress the market today. It is to build a 5, 10, 15, 20, a 30-year revenue base so that when Bruce, Raj, and I can stand in front of the market, our investors and analysts will say with conviction, "We know what we're delivering. We know where the revenue is coming from. And more importantly, we're building something that lasts." This is not just a business growth we're talking about. This is category leadership. Finally, before I hand it over, let me say this. We're just getting started, not just globally, but also in the United States. We're expanding very rapidly, and this is not just about business development, but it's also about engineering, policy engagement, and partnerships that will place Gorilla at the heart of the AI infrastructure narrative in the United States. Now, this is not speculative tech hype. This is infrastructure, policy, AI, and execution at scale. More importantly, as we now take you through our business strategy, technology roadmap, and financial, I ask you to look beyond the noise. See Gorilla for what it is. It's a company with a proven model, real profitability, global reach, and a pipeline that is not built on hype but built on delivery, trust, and unmatched execution capability. Here are a few things I want to leave you with. We're not here to compete for space, but we're here to define. Define that particular space or define it, as if I may say it. We're not here following a category, but we're trying to build one. More importantly, the market is just beginning to realize that. Now, I will hand it over to Bruce. Bruce, do you want to take them through the numbers behind our momentum? Thank you. Yes, sure. Thank you, Jay. Thank you, everyone. The first thing before I dive in is I want to say that we've shared today the abridged financials. There will be a 20F filing, which is our year-end full financial filing that will be coming up in a matter of a week or two. Stay on the lookout for that. That will have all the details behind this. To reiterate just the key numbers, I'll walk through the income statement and go through those. First is the revenue, as we mentioned, delivered $74.67 million. We're quite thrilled with this as it's a 15% increase over last year. This is really due to performance from some of the large contracts that we had announced earlier, 2023, and also some onboarding of new clients or new contracts from repeat clients. The gross profit was 49.96%. This was a decline from last year due to a change in the mix. What we saw was basically in 2023, a very high margin focus on high-margin services. We think that that was basically a one-off. Going forward, we expect the gross margin to stay around this level, so 45%-low 50% range. We think that this is the margin that the business is able to generate at scale going forward. As we scroll down to the cost items, you can see that basically the SG&A and the R&D spend were down last in 2024. That reflects a right-sizing of the business, some structured layoffs that we took in 2023 and 2024, really to get the business down to cut some of the fat and get some muscle mass. We're starting to hire again and to rebuild in some key areas, especially with the senior team. In the second half of last year and then in the beginning of this year, we have been building up in the finance team, technology team, operations. Also on the cost side, we saw a foreign exchange loss of about $27.5 million. That is primarily due to the impact of the one-off devaluation that we saw in Egypt in March of 2024. Now, this is a provision that we've taken to be sort of max conservative. There is the potential for a reversal or a decrease in the provision as, first of all, the exchange rate could settle down or reverse. Secondly, as there is the potential for compensation from clients for some of the exchange rate losses. For now, we have booked the maximum provision, and we await further developments. The other big impact here, as we mentioned at the bottom of the press release, was in terms of the conversion of the preferred shares and the exercise of the warrants. Basically, this is a non-cash loss of $59.54 million. I want to emphasize that this is on paper, right? It does not change any of the operating results, and it does not change any of the cash items. It is a charge that we have to take because it reflects the difference between the prevailing share price and either the exercise price of the warrants or the conversion price of the preferred shares. That is a charge that we took, but also that is a charge that we will not take in the future because all of the preferred shares were converted into ordinary shares, and then almost all of the warrants were converted into ordinary shares last year. We have a very small amount of warrants that we hope will be converted this year. That was a brief tour of the profit and loss. In terms of the cash flow, last year, we saw a significant outflow from operations of cash flow operations of $34 million. That was financed by basically raising money from the market in the first part of 2024. That decrease in cash flow was due to a build in the contract assets, i.e., unbilled revenue. This is basically because we perform work, and then as we perform work and recognize revenue, we waited to bill it. We believe that the unbilled revenue has peaked at the end of 2024 because we're billing actively to our main customers now in terms of sending the invoices and moving it into the accounts receivable column. We also expect that this year will be cash flow positive from operations because of that, right? The unbilled revenue won't expand dramatically. We're sending bills to customers and collecting them or awaiting collection in the next week or two. In terms of where we are with the balance sheet, the unrestricted cash balance is $21.7 million at the end of the year. That is up from $5.3 million at the end of 2023. That's obviously a dramatic improvement. That came partly from the reduction in the restricted cash balance. Restricted cash ended the year at $15.77 million. That was down from $41.47 million. That basically is because we had several guarantees to clients where we delivered a certain milestone. We reached a certain milestone, and we were able to unlock those guarantees and turn them from restricted cash into unrestricted cash. Some of that cash was put to work either in some hardware prepayments or in other uses for the business. Also, part of that freeing up of cash, part of that increase in cash was used to pay down debt. We finished at $21.42 million, down from $25.09 million of debt. That is improvement, and we expect further improvement along those lines. To come to the shareholder structure as of today, I mentioned this earlier, but there are no preferred shares. Those were all converted into ordinary shares in 2024. We have about 700,000 shares that can be issued due to private warrants, private warrants whose strike price is $590. We have the publicly traded warrants, GRRRW, which are about 958,000 potential shares. All told, that means that we reduced the fully diluted share count from the middle of last year until now by about 750,000 shares. We have tried to keep a lid on dilution. Coming to a couple of other points for 2024. As I mentioned, we will announce the full financials. It will be a filing of the SEC. We expect to see improvements in the language about material weaknesses and internal controls. Obviously, I do not want to front-run the exact statement, but we have made a lot of progress in the year in terms of internal controls, operations, and serving SOX compliance. We expect to see a much better statement about internal controls. We also expect to announce that we are serving SOX compliance. Actually, that is two years ahead of the requirement that the exchange has for us. I want to turn now to the guidance for 2025. As we mentioned earlier in the year, the guidance is $100 million-$110 million of revenue. The gross margins are 40%-50%. That is a wide range. It should be closer to the top end of the range than the bottom end of the range. We see 20%-25% EBITDA margins and net margin of 10%-18%. Again, there is a wide range because it depends basically where we book the revenue for tax purposes. We have a lot of confidence in those predictions as well because the backlog at the moment is $93 million. To expand on what Jay was talking about, a backlog for us means revenue where the contract is signed, it is either in the process of being delivered or it is booked to be delivered in 2025. That $93 million is just what's achievable for 2025. We also expect a ramp-up in some of the projects that we have discussed before. For instance, our work with the Taoyuan Police, our work in Santa Marta, and some of the other smart cities in Latin America, which will take us beyond the backlog figure at $93 million into our range of $100 million -$110 million. That is how we get there. I do not yet have the exact amounts and timing for those, but we know that those projects will generate revenue this year. Together, they will get us to the $100 million-$110 million guidance. We anticipate that. Also, we anticipate cash flow operations to be positive due to further reductions in restricted cash collections from customers and also because, as of now, we do not expect significant investment. Last but not least, talking about debt, we own a property in Taipei, which is on the market. The plan is very much that we will repay our debt load with the proceeds from the sale of that property. That will also free up about $5.5 million of cash that is restricted because it is pledged as collateral against the loan. Last but not least, I want to talk a little bit about 2026. As Jay mentioned, a lot of the MOUs, contracts, etc., that we have announced to the market have a revenue impact where we're still figuring out when exactly it starts. It's not press a button and it starts. It could take six months to start. It could take nine months. It could take 12 months. Nonetheless, we are confident that revenues will be in 2026 higher than our guidance for 2025. We also have a backlog of $67 million, which is attributable just to 2026. This is contracts that we already are working on where, looking forward, we can see that we'll deliver this revenue in 2026. We also have funding for our current project portfolio. Growing the business requires putting capital to work in different projects and to service different contracts. If we get more contracts or they become sooner dated, I guess, would be the right way to say it, we will seek to utilize, first, our cash balance, secondly, debt in the form of bank debt, also project-level finance, and last would be equity. If we had an amazing run of converting projects into signed contracts that would be operational this year, then there's a chance we would raise equity. Of course, we would only do that if it was accretive for shareholders by delivering EBITDA and revenue growth to fund exciting projects. Otherwise, we'll stick with the current project portfolio, and then we'll fund it with our own resources. That is all for me. With that, I'd like to turn it over to Jay and Raj Natarajan again. Thank you, Bruce. Hello, everyone. I'd like to take a moment to share a few thoughts from a technological development standpoint so that it helps ground ourselves. At Gorilla, our journey has been very intentional from being a software company to purpose-built appliances company and now on to delivering comprehensive solution-based software. Each evolution brought us closer to our customer, deepening our understanding of their challenges and allowing us to control more of the value chain. Initially, we specialized in powerful AI software, but software alone left our customers facing hardware incompatibilities, integration headaches, infrastructure gaps, and unpredictable performance. Recognizing this, we shifted our approach. At the top of 2024, we transitioned into creating purpose-built appliances, pairing our AI with optimized hardware. This gave our customers reliable performance, enhanced security, and faster realization of value. Yet, we knew our customers needed even more. Today, we deliver complete outcome-focused solutions, fully integrated systems designed to solve end-to-end challenges, not just isolated components. The One Amazon project illustrates this perfectly. We did not simply go in offering AI software or standalone appliances. Instead, we are designing and deploying an integrated solution, combining infrastructure, video analytics, secure communications, all seamlessly embedded within the Amazon's ecosystem. This holistic approach unites hardware, software, services, intelligence, and data center operations, all working cohesively towards strategic long-term goals. That's the future that we're building, where Gorilla serves as the foundational platform, the delivery engine, and the trusted partner for intelligent large-scale infrastructure. I'm often asked this question: How long does it take for Gorilla to operationalize these large-scale projects? The reality is that it depends. These projects all begin with clearly identifying and understanding critical problems, whether it's enhancing traffic safety for a city, providing secure surveillance for a nation, or helping partners modernize infrastructure. The foundational understanding informs every subsequent step that we take. Once clarity is established, we move quickly but deliberately, involving relevant experts early and clearly mapping out constraints, whether they be environmental, regulatory, and operational. Then we leverage our extensive library of proven blueprints, and we take these designed architectures, optimize them through our ownership of the entire stack, which is software, AI, and hardware. What distinguishes Gorilla is our dedication beyond product delivery. We manage deployments, integration complexities, AI optimization for localized conditions, custom model creation, and user training. We engineer solutions for the real world within these, not for lab simulations. The One Amazon project exemplifies this commitment from Gorilla. Starting from a shared vision for intelligent conservation of the Amazon Rainforest, we are architecting a robust solution, integrating advanced AI, secure communications, and physical infrastructure. How does a Gorilla project come to life? It is very simple. Through clear purpose, precise execution, and total ownership from start to finish. This is how we consistently transform complex problems into impactful, lasting solutions. With that, back to you, Jay. Thanks, Raj. I am now very keen to open the forum for the analysts and questions. Thank you. We will now begin the question and answer session. To join the question queue, you may press star, then one on your telephone keypad. You will hear a tone acknowledging your request. If you're using a speakerphone, please pick up your handset before pressing any keys. To withdraw your question, please press star, then two. The first question comes from Mike Latimer with Northland Securities. Please go ahead. Hi, this is Keaton Schuelke from Mike. Looking at your guidance, I was wondering, how much does the Egypt project represent of this year's revenue guidance? Hey, Keaton. I'm happy to take that question. If you looked at—let me go back. I think since Mike's been involved with the business ever since 2022, Egypt didn't form a big part of our revenue. 2022, 2023, there was a big part of our revenue. 2024, we managed to kind of de-risk the business. I think that was something which I've been talking about as to how we move away from single large contracts. Today, if you look at our revenue, it's broken down into four or five large customers. In 2025, I'm looking at roughly about seven to eight large customers. All in all, we have about 97 customers today. Egypt currently is about 50% of that, probably slightly less than that. Next year, it will be under 30%, and the year after, it'll be well under 15%. Our aim is to make sure that by the time we're in 2026 and early 2027, we are going to have no client greater than 10%-15%. Okay. Thank you for the color on that. What are some key steps needed before you start recognizing material revenue on the One Amazon, the Thailand energy deal, and the Asia Smart School deal? When might that occur? Sure. I mean, I think the first thing, the first most important thing which I mentioned earlier is that it takes us a lot of time and effort before we start building each of these customers' requirements, understanding the customers' requirements. Whether it's the solution design, whether it's the architecture planning, whether it's the compliance, whether it's working with multiple partners, whether it's POC validation, building their infrastructure policy, and so on and so forth. Once we have done all of those, it then takes us at least between three to four months before we can start building and scaling up the operations. Now, first of all, what we have to do is we have to build the people and structure. Obviously, you cannot scale up globally without having a playbook. We have to kind of build the leadership team. We have to bring in deep operational capability. We have to create the model for the customer. More importantly, being a small company, and everybody keeps pointing us out that we are about 150- 200 people. Today, we are about 200 people. Raj currently is hiring a little over 140 people as we speak. By the end of this year, we should be anything between 600-800 people. The problem is that you have to move with speed for the customers. The complexity of the delivery. As we roll out, and you talked about the Southeast Asia project, no two projects are the same, right? Whether it's lawful interception, deployment in Taiwan, or the Ministry of Education in Southeast Asia, every single one of them comes up with their own compliance integration, political context, and so on. There is no copy-paste button for each of these. Third is cash flow. We have to make sure that we're working in multiple jurisdictions with different banking regulations, FX controls, payment cultures. Managing each of them is a masterclass of patience, if I may. Let me tell you this, Egypt alone has given us an entire MBA course already. More importantly, is to deliver. I will let Raj kind of fill in a few sentences on that. When we do country-led development programs, we have to absolutely bake ourselves into the entire delivery framework. Raj, do you have anything to comment? No, I'll echo what you just said, Jay. The merging of minds with the different work styles and mechanisms in place across countries is certainly a learning to be had. The good news is that we've tracked that pretty early on in the equation itself. We've established rhythms across all of these different governments where our execution is pretty much like clockwork at the moment. I think we are in great standing. Great. One thing I'd like to add is also we discuss how these projects ramp up. It takes time. We do not include any of these projects into revenue forecasts until we know exactly when and how much. As we're sort of signing them and doing the scope of work and getting started on the work, it's not included in the forecasts. It's only when we know how much and when that it moves into the forecasts. Okay. Thank you. Thank you for that additional color. Kind of spinning off that, do the contracts for these large deals provide upfront payments so you can buy the required supplies and hardware? Another kind of spin-off of that for the One Amazon deal, the funds raised so far, how much of that will get directed to Gorilla for technological development? Yes and no. It depends on what these projects are. For example, the educational project in Southeast Asia is a multi-year, multi-phase smart education initiative. The first phase is only $460 million plus dollars out of the 10 phases which we talked about. The customer is not going to pay us an advanced payment. He's going to pay us on a monthly basis for the next five years. Think about it this way. Every year, I complete the first phase, the next phase begins, and the phase after that, and so on and so forth. When you look at the project itself, by the time I'm on year nine, I'm already on year 14 because it will take me to deploy the project. By the time I'm in year 11, it'll be year 16. You have a five-year maintenance project. You're looking at a 20-year project, and the customer is going to pay you monthly for the next 15-20 years. No, those customers will not pay us in advance. If you're looking at someone like the PEA project, for example, they are going to pay us in advance, but that's not going to be enough for just buying all the equipment, both hardware and software. I think it would be unrealistic for us to come back to the market and tell them that, yes, we're going to get paid, and all that is going to cover for the cost of the project itself. Because the project is $1.8 billion, and if the customer decides to pay us 10% in advance, then it's only $180 million. We would still need to raise substantial capital. That is why when Bruce alluded to the fact that we are going to be working with the likes of the local institutions, whether it's EIF, whether it's the UKEF, whether it's ADB, whether it's local banks, Citi, JP Morgan, it doesn't matter who it is, we will try and raise money through effective means at that point of time. Does that answer your question? Yeah. Thank you. And congrats on the quarter. I'll return to the queue. Thank you. The next question comes from Brian Kinstlinger with Alliance Global Partners. Please go ahead Great. Thanks for taking my questions. First, Bruce, you mentioned a 10%-18% margin for 2025. Was that EBITDA? Was that net margin? I did not catch that. Net margin. 20%-25% is the forecast for EBITDA margin, and net margin is a wider range. Yeah. Got it. Okay. As it relates to the $400 million plus smart education first phase of that contract, in December, I think you announced you were downselected as the provider. I kind of thought of that as an intent to award. Has that contract been finalized? I am confused by your previous answer. If it has not been signed yet, what are the obstacles right now to getting that contract agreed upon? Brian, if I may, there are no obstacles. The only issue being that we're going through a very, very stringent POC with the customer. The issue being that we're talking about the customer jumped the gun. Okay? What he's looking to do, he wants to sign the entire 10 phases with one party, which is us. The issue being that we have to make sure that the technical design, the specifications, the milestone-based payment, the deployment, the software, the network, the integration timelines, the approvals, the stage deployments, and all of the technical audits need to be defined before we can put into the paper. The SOW alone, and Raj and I are working with this along with our team, is a little over 900 pages. By the time we can get this over the hurdle with these guys, it's taking a much longer time than I'd anticipated. If it was a simple $460 million contract, I think we would have signed it and we would have started moving forward. The problem we have today is that the customer now wants to actually move forward with the entire budget. And just FYI, the budgets for phase two and phase three have already been approved as well by the parliament. So with the 900. Yeah. Yeah. That answers it. But I'm going to ask a second. With this large document, as well as the POC, can you help frame for investors what a reasonable timeframe is? Are we six months away from going through the POC and getting that signed? Is it much shorter? Is it longer? Just help set expectations for investors, if you could. Absolutely. So Raj, I think you should take it since you're very close to the project on the ground, if you want to. No, absolutely. If I were to look into my crystal ball, I would say that the best guess estimate at the moment would be somewhere just south of six months. That is a good estimate for us to keep in mind and track. We are rapidly trying to influence the customer to get there even quicker. That is where I would say. Good news on this particular front is that while the paperwork is long and arduous, the proof of concept is actually progressing pretty well. We finished a bunch of surveys over there. We have got some foundational systems already running. We are just staying true to our ability to deliver value quickly. I think that differentiation is actually helping us win the hearts of the customers even more if we can. All in all, it is on the up and up. Great. Thanks for those comments. If I can move to One Amazon, if I'm listening to your commentary accurately, there's a lot that has to happen before you start generating revenue. I think we all should understand that. When two weeks ago you come out with a press release that suggests $100 million has been raised, I think, or been allocated for One Amazon on the technology side, what are you trying to communicate to the mar ket? I don't think that changed the timeframe. Help us understand what you want to communicate the meaning to Gorilla in the near term for that, or long term. I'll take one half of that question. Raj, you may want to talk about the technology side of it once I've kind of addressed his question. Brian, the One Amazon project is pretty much on track. In fact, it's ahead of track. Why? Because they have received commitments from a number of very, very large sovereign wealth funds and foundations and institutional investors who've come in and want to deploy capital. Now, as you know, Rodrigo Veloso is dynamic. He's looking at raising anything between $100 billion-$750 billion over the course of the next 20 years so that he can help support the Amazon. Of course, being Brazilian, it's very close to his heart. Now, when I said $100 million, it was basically the capital that was needed to initially run the proof of concept. I'll let Raj fill in once I've completed this. The proof of concept is basically to deploy it across a few hundred hectares to figure out the topological mapping, to figure out whether we're using LiDAR, whether we're using biodegradable sensors. What kind of data are we going to generate? How do we clean up that data? It's required. How do we democratize the data? I think you asked the question as to how much of that money is going to go into Gorilla. Now, as per the agreement we have with them, it's between 25%-30% is what we have agreed to for every $100 million that's raised. That said, the first $100 million, most of that, if not all of that, will go into the proof of concept to Gorilla directly as well. This is a very, very important proof of concept because you've got all the other investors sitting on the sidelines waiting to see what comes out. Raj? Yeah. Thanks for clarifying that on the business side. From a technical perspective, I think, as Jay pointed out, we've actually made significant progress on that particular front. First of all, the core data analytics engine is something that we already have, which has been running for many governments on our cybersecurity infrastructure portfolio for almost 15 years now, and it's been growing from strength to strength. All we need to do now is to button up some additional sensors onto that particular pipeline. We have the system functional end-to-end in our R&D labs, both in India and in Taiwan. Currently, what we're really working towards is identifying the right mix of sensors for ground truth. We're also talking to a bunch of satellite imagery providers in order for us to figure out what the truth from the sky is going to be. There is an amalgamation of data points that we need to collect, synthesize, and summarize in order for our customers to kind of be able to digest the value behind the coins that are being created. It is something that the whole team at Gorilla is really excited about, and it is full steam ahead from our persp ective. Okay. My last question is, is management still committed to reporting results on a quarterly basis going forward? Should we expect four separate earnings reports this year? Absolutely, yes, Brian. We are. Okay. Thank you so much. No, sure. Just FYI, Brian, we actually built a very, very strong team, which is now going to be working in tandem on a quarterly basis. Bruce's team, the finance team, now spans across the globe. I think we are working tirelessly day in and day night. His team is going to be delivering on a quarterly basis. I think we owe it to the market, but more importantly, we have to be transparent. I think we're going to stick to our guns. The next question comes from John Roy with Water Tower Research. Please go ahead. Great. Thank you. Kind of wanted to step back a little bit. Certainly, every company on the planet is saying, "We're an AI company, and we're doing a lot in AI." Raj, I wonder if you could give us some color about what is different about the approach you're taking. Is it generating any barriers? Or kind of give us some more depth as to what exactly is AI about your product suite? Thank you, John, for that question. I completely understand that we live in a very crowded space. I like simple analogies, and the simplest way that I can put it is that we build AI that actually works where it matters. The net-net is that we are not trying to out-GPT anyone. We are certainly not trying to chase academic benchmarks. Our focus is on real-world impact. More importantly, we focus on environments where traditional AI just doesn't cut it, like on the edge, in smart cities and in secure and often offline deployments, right? We specialize in edge AI, which is built from ground up. The idea is to run on constrained hardware. Wherever there is real-time processing, whether that's on a camera pole, on a router in the field, or a rugged device in the factory, we are there. That is essentially where we focus on, especially in areas where latency actually matters. Our strength is that we optimize for the edge. We do not optimize for the cloud. This gives us a huge advantage in the market, specifically in markets like public safety, transportation, critical infrastructure, places where you just cannot wait around on the cloud to think. If you think about it from a smart city perspective, the most important aspect that we have been trying to convey through this last hour is that we are not merely trying to do demos, right? We are actually powering actual infrastructure, maybe traffic systems, access controls, and cloud monitoring, or environmental insights with regards to One Amazon. We are actually working very closely with the governments, the integrators, in such a way that there is purposeful AI being developed to actually solve real-world problems. The way I think about it is that Gorilla's AI is built for the edge. It's tested on the field, and it's scaled for real-world, right? It's not just smart, right? It's practical, and then it's delivering value today. It's delivering value today in real-time and ensuring that our customers, no matter who they are, governments or cities or enterprises, they see that return on investment in weeks, not in quarters. That's always our goal. I think our agility and the simplicity behind our AI solving very complex problems is what's actually helping us leapfrog in the industry today. Great. That's good to hear. One of the other things that you guys have done is you set some pretty significant and transparent expectations for 2025 and 2026. I heard one kind of milestone along the way, which is this six-month signing coming up. I wondered what other kind of milestones might investors look for along the way to see that you are going to hit what you hopefully are going to hit in 2025 and 2026. John, is that for me, Jay? Yeah, or for Bruce. Okay. I can take it. Go for it, Bruce. Yeah. As I mentioned, the biggest milestones that we would be focused on would be basically the contracts that we've mentioned, getting a more concrete, precise idea of when the revenue is arriving and how much. The process is multiple steps. You start with an MOU or some kind of earlier commercial agreement. You move into scope of work, proof of concept. You iron out all the details, and you move into a definitive contract. The definitive contract includes the milestones, the timing, the payment amounts, etc. I think that we have a very, very robust pipeline of qualified leads and also signed MOUs and work that's in progress in terms of scope of work, etc. I think it's really just the passage of time and working closely with our clients to iron out, "Okay, this is exactly what we're going to do when." That's what will get us to the right numbers and knowing when we'll be achieving those numbers. I think that in between the customers that we're starting with and ramping up, and also the business that we have in the backlog, I think that the forecasts that we just set out are quite achievable. Right. Okay. Bruce, should we expect to hear updates to the backlog as you report quarterly going forward? Is that something you hopefully will do? Yes, absolutely. As timelines get more precise, we are quite concerned on how we forecast. When I come out with guidance, it's not me sticking my finger in the air, right? It's me saying, "Okay, we're very sure that these contracts are going to deliver this revenue on this day, this timeline." That's the only time that we start putting things into the guidance. As we get a much firmer idea, then we'll be able to do that. The discussion about One Amazon that you heard, right? There's funding there from One Amazon. We know how much funding is there. We know that the timeline will take several months, but we know that maybe in 2026, maybe in 2027, there is a decent chunk of revenue that will start to appear. It's a similar situation in Thailand with the PEA, the smart electricity grid. We know that that's a mammoth contract. We know that it takes time to get it right from the customer side, from our side. It could be that the revenue starts to flow in earnest in early 2026, late 2026. We just do not know. We are not going to rush. We are not going to overpromise and under-deliver. That is not our style. Great. Maybe that is— John, sorry. My apologies. Let me interrupt there. No problem. I also want to add something there, right? Let me be blunt. If someone believes that we get an AI-powered smart grid or a sovereign digital infrastructure plan, and that can be switched, flipped on like a light switch, then they do not understand the space we operate in. Okay? We are building long-term, high-margin recurring revenues, which are deeply embedded infrastructure. The commercial flow, basically, from my perspective, is structured, predictable, and layered. What we are trying to build, which I think a lot of the market doesn't still seem to understand, is that we are building our pipeline for the next 20 years. When I go and tell you that I am going to close my deal with the Ministry of Education project, we're not just talking about rolling out the entire solution, design, architecture, and so on. We have to make sure that we have to understand their legacy systems as well. That takes time. Secondly, when you look at projects, like for example, we're working on airports across Latin America. We're building smart cities in Santa Marta and Cartagena. We have a lot of political headwinds to deal with as well. It's not just about coming in and dealing with the project. It's also about creating the economic catapults. Now, you are very familiar with our model as to how we move forward. We're not just investing into a project. Gorilla is very unique. That is why today, this morning as well, when we were having a conversation with one of the states in the United States, the Secretary of State was like, "How do you think you could benefit the local market?" They are not talking to us about projects. They are talking to us about economic development of these regions. Now, what we are trying to do is we are trying to make sure that we are able to sustain our growth, but at the same time, make sure that we focus on key KPIs. Okay? Now, when we track execution across, we track four different core dimensions. Whether it is revenue conversion, we focus on delivery milestones, cash flow, and client satisfaction. We monitor revenue velocity. We make sure how do we measure how quickly are the contracts buying, but what is our active billing look like, and more importantly, what is our pipeline conversion? That is number one. Number two, we make sure that every single project, whether it is a POC, whether it is a high-level integration, testing, and so on, we track project delivery milestones down to the country level, to the client level. Then comes the responsibility falls on Bruce and his team on the financial side, where we look at cash collection cycle. What kind of payment realization needs to be happening? What is closely monitored? We have teams, and so on and so forth, right? More importantly, when you realize that this is not a sprint, it is a marathon. That means we have to now operate across multiple countries, multiple jurisdictions, multiple political and tribal issues we have to work with. Finally, client success. Every single customer has a different client satisfaction indicator. We have to make sure that we are working very closely with them. To do that today, I am also, I think one of the things which we have not mentioned to the market is that we have internally set what we call a Strategic Office of Impact Group led by a lady called Debra Hudson, who has been hired recently. That allows us to track all these KPIs very, very effectively and make sure that when we deliver these numbers to the market and to the analysts, we make sure that they are spick and span to the last T. Great. That is very good. Thank you so much. Thank you. This concludes the question and answer session. I would like to turn the conference back over to management for any closing remarks. Please go ahead. First of all, thanks everybody for attending the earnings call. I am super excited about the future of Gorilla. All I'm going to say is that we are building a digital backbone for the modern world. We would love for our investors to continue being with us, invest with us, and more importantly, we make sure that all of our employees and shareholders are here to win. Thank you once again for being the backbone of our business. I will continue to work, me and my team will continue to work hard to make sure we deliver. Thank you, everyone. This brings to a close today's conference call. You may disconnect your lines. Thank you for participating and have a pleasant day.
