I So question for guess first Brendan.

the U.S. the the onto processing You - stopping of platform. talked or the out about pushing consolidation

that that doing sort transactions around Is Or of Chile? the rationale now is requirement for any hub for Latam? there? there there processing You're that Mexico. Will across out a be of

Yes.

to good being So the The platform the platform George. markets. that the able the for that as intent for hub question, been office time our technology enable same back Mexico and with European way to in we've is Poland

Central nearly and the language. South to of And required that would Spanish in has is that So Brazil. a lot it already system quickly Chile. a system ex of applicable stand to That's be all in up obviously America, capabilities

Chile faster Chile opportunity moving there. the we this And for the Mexico when along, opportunity onto the far at processing U.S. our platform.

And Okay, very Tom, aboard. welcome helpful.

is, guidance the XXXX. Just network ask with in way of versus revenue line a to expected in we adjusted it kind on question. looking would XXXX, have for maybe If we're for X% to looking the basis? purposes, been grow that the have for that X% another you're for comparability XXXX an revenue to guidance what fees So

It's see revenues think be And and you. thank yes, network fees move your generally to parallel George, gross to question, I would paths. you answer good in here.

with to encourage and go-forward basis. we'll to stay So sync be certainly, to that referring you move the to on business how a

Ramsey Barclays. El-Assal with

open. is line Your

on mean, and it's of sort in you mentioned EuroBic With already know I process Could forward? those them a update of question. us the are I Bci difficult timing? And on in we moving Bci. terms of give an making where preparations you X,

how ground green would the off got you So get those light? the once quickly

This is Jim.

relates well ago, to think I it it was a year over it As October EuroBic, we ago. signed a year

this I of It bank this transaction. entry of press, think a bank. in sold have through the guess, has a followed Spanish up I you gone the a has as was one was been transformation. until, some And may around the to owners. held privately some bank There

been of a And that it terms so going agreement transaction, We the want terms extending with know to bank. this expired. to of stage, didn't extend wait it think the had because we and We had original in with at by agreement month. happen I was in - is, see. it didn't We long-term our what month had

the struck with with as - to the move and new EuroBic. what potential owner, to we as deal had that new owner is the we will will and engage with to So with future the whether back the continue forward to we get we'll you

be the we would acquirer terms market. the first Chile, In in of

for progressing the the we're There bank a We're We work clear structure something be It regulator process. out well. have market. would venture we But Visa, during this is mentioning enabled progress. to - the where a relationship, in entering the being for and Mastercard otherwise, capabilities. having is with period. majority But component expected interest, to looking continuing build joint regulator what we is the with So seen Brendan also has the beginning. to is to the not slower acquirer, in the again, than the relationship that of processing continue an probably market spring/summertime market new also as independent was first to the the a relative

that some have report call. second So as we'll update we're to news optimistic an the on quarter

more me. the One North for really, e-com it between seems Great. America sort versus and everything of on There's you're business executing bifurcation in of sort traditional Obviously, channels. a well ISV. the really almost - like

on about inflecting see at place the some at as more the you executing bleeding BXB. in U.S.? see kind effectively? like slowly Is Do You're those Or view of that we some inflect should lines you Can off point? are a talk point? business growing plan sort those there well in those of to slower businesses

Okay.

the take first I'll So traditional.

its to it define street. not relates a everybody or core EVO. the 'XX largely EVO, else traditional that it when was a years I sales that vernacular, I as in exited or guess, XXXX, It for did company have telesales. international business joined 'XX a relationship. the it And through and we that on ISOs traditional if use all business have the agents was of Payments part back individuals, primarily as used group. that XX So the now of just to relationship went not core It was focus processor, That Global on in feet was was became market It's discussed the our to was exited in, with organization. processing formed It reflects that you we period, IPO, when time as of that business the kind before domestically.

instances, So retired. that because a people, prospect growth have that is status of in runoff. a not There's those to some a returning

it's the of a piece side very profitable flip is business. Now

strategy growth ISVs, that into or over moving So organic invested BXB another higher strong it's last the of business is is the where bleeds that cetera. has atrophy. in et Poland, Mexico that been And Ireland, But very profits the to off, we've growth. - watch X been and we've markets. taken painful we're for you it us that mentioned, example seeing years,

going it that essentially in is move to that market. direction attrition the continue is moving, the So one has to in been U.S. which

previous we've of In e-commerce, calls. terms discussed on

As you relationship we've X inclusive Bci. of last know, with made acquisitions, also, year, the

any in P&L for In terms not cost significant of the Bci, there's Bci.

as Brendan reasons, the we're the of described, leveraging infrastructure. that One Mexico

there's extra took the Mexico service an of Longer to building able office, support set the in that customer on market. we'll infrastructure We buy. floor some. at So there Bci have term, in back service initially. be up But book customer to out the in guess, I least to was not a to

well a we're as similar those will excited straight markets going to many in accelerating Ireland, describe it as what growth got in absorb be a the it that connectivity story America. very adjacent that's opportunities but are to be plus other time brand's So clearance I about. we'll for some to start-up will come once with we'll and from go There's we high-growth the you years, also South and the be for to think extremely losses, And regulator. good Americas, first us, the into back
