Let me say that - in 2025 operating cash outflow was about $174 million and capex about $210 million, okay? That total cash need we covered mainly by issuing roughly $519 million of stock, raising our share count about 52% in a single year. All right? We also carry $125 million of 2.75% convertible notes due 2030. Issuance continued into 2026 - share count up about 5% in Q1 alone. We're still loss-making even with revenue up 83%, so dilution is the price of building capacity fast, right? Whether it slows depends on reaching the profitability we've guided to.
