Question: Hamir Patel - CIBC Capital Markets - Analyst
: Hi, good afternoon. Richard, if you're successful in completing those four acquisitions, would you expect that to be completed in the fourth fiscal
quarter and what would be the total revenues associated with the four deals?
Question: Hamir Patel - CIBC Capital Markets - Analyst
: Okay, great. Thanks. Thanks for that. And that would that be largely on the manufacturer side?
Question: Hamir Patel - CIBC Capital Markets - Analyst
: Okay. And then Richard, are you able to give an indication of how sales fared in the month of September?
Question: Hamir Patel - CIBC Capital Markets - Analyst
: Fair enough. And Richard, I know the margins kind of troughed in Q1, yet an improvement in Q2 and Q3. How do we think about just given sounds
like near term, things are still a bit sluggish. Would you expect any margin improvement in Q4? And how do you think about maybe where full
year margins could go in '25?
Question: Hamir Patel - CIBC Capital Markets - Analyst
: Okay. Fair enough, but for now, I'll get back in the queue. Thanks.
Question: Zachary Evershed - National Bank Financial - Analyst
: Good afternoon, everyone, and thanks for taking my questions. How consistently do you think you can add $100 million in run rate revenue through
acquisitions? Do you think that's an average target or an annual minimum going forward?
Question: Zachary Evershed - National Bank Financial - Analyst
: Good color. Thanks. And then the US customer lost in Q2. How's it going on backfilling that those volumes?
