Peter and I work very well together, and I am confident this move is good for our company and business. Our financial position today is as strong as it has ever been—we are enjoying record sales and cash flow, our balance sheet is in great shape, and we are making good returns on our investments, all while maintaining a strong balance sheet. We will strive to continue to improve in all these areas.”
