We believe this follow-on stock buyback program is an essential part of these activities and believe that it demonstrates our commitment to our shareholder base. To that end, we also continue to prudently manage our expenses to maintain our strong balance sheet. In the meantime, we continue our evaluation of our current programs while actively exploring the potential for other strategic opportunities."
