Question: Andrew Owen Nicholas - William Blair & Company L.L.C., Research Division - Analyst
: First, I wanted to touch on Boa Vista. I know you had given originally like $165 million revenue run rate. I think it was $160 million when you cited
it in the second quarter, and you're holding that here today post close. Just kind of curious if you could bridge the performance there over the past

headwinds for next year?
Question: Ashish Sabadra - RBC Capital Markets, Research Division - Analyst
: That's very helpful color. And maybe just on the Boa Vista earnings accretion. So that was pretty positive $0.02 accretion in the quarter. Is that the
run rate that we should think about going into '24? Or can you talk about the puts and takes from an earnings accretion perspective in '24.
