Question: Brian Lee - Goldman Sachs Group Inc - Analyst
: I had a couple here. I guess, first off, understandably the pull forward from Q3 into Q2 that's showing up in kind of the results
from a top line perspective. Then when I look at full year guide, even at the low point of the guidance range for revenue, as
you mentioned, Q4 is going to -- looks like it's going to be a quarterly record for you in terms of revenue. So just curious kind
of what -- is there anything that slipped out from Q3 into Q4 timing-wise?
And then if not, where is sort of the visibility around Q4 for that revenue kind of strength into year-end? Is that just product
cycle-driven? Or are you seeing any new capacity being added in '26 starting to mobilize already in terms of material purchases
here at year-end? Just trying to understand the Q4 strength.
Question: Brian Lee - Goldman Sachs Group Inc - Analyst
: Okay. Fair enough. And then again, at the low point of guidance, $650 million revenue or so you're basically flat year on year.
And I know it sounds like Steve was saying at the beginning of the call, you're entering into a pretty encouraging backdrop
of growth across all these new product categories and unit growth assumptions as well as capacity expansion.
So how should we be thinking about sort of the growth trajectory off of the past two years where you've been kind of flattish
into '26, what are some of the puts and takes? And as some of the, I guess, year-end weakness here in '25, is that potentially
slipping into '26 here?
Question: Brian Lee - Goldman Sachs Group Inc - Analyst
: Okay. Great. Fair enough. Last one for me, and I'll pass it on. The LG display contract, I believe, that is up for renewal at end
of the year. Any thoughts you can share around how those contract negotiations are faring? And then are there any potential
implications for the blue commercialization time line from those contract negotiations?
Question: Martin Yang - Oppenheimer & Co Inc - Analyst
: I want to maybe dig into the end markets a bit more. with regards to your guidance, is there any incremental changes by end
markets, for example, smartphones, ITs and TVs that gave you a different outlook for the year?
