tail? And just how that impacts growth?
Question: Jon Young - Canaccord Genuity (Australia) Ltd - Analyst
: And then I think it was moved to another important topic question, that was the recent divestiture. If you know, it happened early in the fiscal year.
You divested both the Dialysis and the BioSentry product line to Merit Medical for $100 million in cash. The sale helped you pay off your debt.

labs? How penetrated are you today in US OBLs, and hospital outpatient adjustment?
Question: Jon Young - Canaccord Genuity (Australia) Ltd - Analyst
: Got it. And then you spoke about -- international expansion. Are you charging a CE mark in the first half of fiscal 2024. How should we think about
this the OUS opportunity when it comes to Auryon, but also in terms of distribution strategy and commercial ramp, would you sell through
distributors? And then what reimbursement exists, OUS today in terms like countries you would initially target?
