Question: Sean Wilfred Dodge - RBC Capital Markets, Research Division - Analyst
: Yes. And I guess -- so obviously, big news out of the channel yesterday with Amazon launching its pharmacy efforts. Could you maybe just kind of
walk us through the different elements of that and how you see that affecting GoodRx? And then maybe you can weave in some comments around
your competitive differentiation there, the strength of your moat -- levers you can pull that -- to maybe widen that moat here?
Question: Sean Wilfred Dodge - RBC Capital Markets, Research Division - Analyst
: And then maybe, Doug, you touched on it a little bit here, but if you could kind of walk us through the -- hey, any initial analysis you've done, the
efficacy of the Amazon discount card versus GoodRx. You guys are sourcing data. You're able to cherry-pick across many different PBM contracts.
Amazon looks like it's only really being driven by one. So any kind of initial data or thoughts you have on how the discounts under the 2 different
cards can vary or compare?
Question: Sean Wilfred Dodge - RBC Capital Markets, Research Division - Analyst
: Okay. If we look to the PBMs with the other retailers, is there any chance those become more of a competitive threat? Now could Amazon's
announcement elicit some type of competitive response from somebody like a Walmart or a CVS or a Walgreens that could impact you one way
or the other?
Question: Sean Wilfred Dodge - RBC Capital Markets, Research Division - Analyst
: Okay. And then one more for me before I spin it back to Mark. Maybe on the election now that we're mostly hopefully on the other side of that,
what are you think the implications of that for GoodRx? Are there any kind of key regulatory issues outstanding that could potentially have a
meaningful impact on your business?
Question: Sean Wilfred Dodge - RBC Capital Markets, Research Division - Analyst
: Sounds good. Mark, I'll turn it over to you.
Question: Sean Wilfred Dodge - RBC Capital Markets, Research Division - Analyst
: You're on mute, Mark.
Question: Sean Wilfred Dodge - RBC Capital Markets, Research Division - Analyst
: Yes, yes. Maybe just here in the last -- there was a question that came in, asking you just for some clarification on a point. I think, Doug, you made
-- and I think it's an important one. You mentioned Amazon's offering the discount card, mostly because they're contractually obligated to in order
to show prices on their website. Are we understanding that right?
Question: Sean Wilfred Dodge - RBC Capital Markets, Research Division - Analyst
: Okay, great. That's our 30 minutes, went quick. Mark, any closing comments or anything else?
