Our revenue was in line with the revised guidance we gave at the end of February. As we discussed then, we have undertaken a variety of focused initiatives to increase top-line growth for the second half of the year -- and beyond.

I look forward to working closely with Apollo's solid group of executives and staff and we will continue to address the challenges and meet the opportunities that will ensure our continued success.
