Good morning, everyone, and thanks for joining us. I think we may have several new attendees on our call today. So before getting into the business results, let’s quickly take a step back and take a look at an overview of our company. We are an environmental transformation company and currently one of North America’s largest providers of small-scale liquefied natural gas, with future aspirations of expanding our offerings into additional clean emerging fuels. We own and operate two strategic liquefaction plants, and we also source LNG from over 30 supply points in the U.S. We have a robust and highly mobile asset base, and we believe we have the most comprehensive turnkey commercial, technical and engineering capabilities in the market to assist customers in the design, engineering and implementation of their fueling needs across the U.S., Canada and Mexico. Our company serves two primary markets: industrial and marine. Our industrial business is our core legacy business and services companies across multiple industries, including mining, pipelines, remote power, food and agriculture, utilities, oil and gas and general industrial. This business also includes a growing presence in the aerospace industry. Sales cycles in our core industrial business tend to be shorter with minimal capital investment required. Aerospace has similar characteristics. However, as private rocket launch programs mature, we believe longer, more ratable commercial relationships are more likely. Our marine business consists of project management, engineering, production or third-party sourcing, delivery and fueling of LNG and vessels in the maritime industry, as well as the exportation of LNG outside the U.S. Sales cycles in both portions of our marine business tend to last longer, involve larger, more predictable LNG volumes, and will require considerable infrastructure and technical know-how as vessel operators and carriers better understand their needs. And turning to the quarter, we had a solid start to the year where we made progress across several of our priorities and our capabilities continued to grow. Commercial interactions across all of our business lines have steadily increased, and we are excited to continue to build upon the substantial progress made in 2022. In our industrial business, demand was strong across multiple sectors, with oil and gas, agriculture and food and remote power leading the way. As I’ve said in the past, the diversity of end markets we serve is one the great attributes of our company, and the first quarter was no exception. We anticipate demand to continue in this business due to three primary drivers. First, LNG is generally less expensive than other fuel choices. Second, many off-grid and off-pipeline gas customers require last-mile virtual pipelines. And third, the drive towards cleaner fuels. As we continue to identify ways of maximizing revenue and margin opportunities with our existing customer base and stimulating new and profitable demand in new sectors and geographies, we feel confident in our ability to execute given our positioning as one of North America’s large turnkey providers of last-mile delivery to the industrial sector. During the quarter, our marine business experienced solid activity, too. Operationally, we safely and successfully completed a significant, short-term bunkering project that called for the delivery of several million gallons of LNG sourced from a large trading position spread among several supply points, supported by our own sizable engineering and supply chain. Our commercial, technical and operational expertise continues to give us a tremendous advantage in the market, and makes us uniquely qualified to execute bespoke bunkering solutions to vessel owners and operators design LNG bunkering fuel in North America. Our rapid planning process and unmatched mobile asset base afford us the ability to quickly deliver fuel across a variety of geographies, which was on display during the quarter as we successfully executed marine operations along the East, Gulf and West Coast, and contributed roughly 28% of total revenue for the quarter compared to 4% in the first quarter of 2022. As we progress, this continues to be an exciting opportunity for scaled growth at our company, driven by the International Maritime Organization’s key mandate requiring that lowering of sulfur emissions in the maritime industry. Shipowners and operators have to quickly identify ways to become compliant through meaningful investments in their existing fleets and/or adopt alternative fuels for propulsion. This paradigm shift spawned a massive increase of newbuild orders for the LNG fuel vessels, resulting in a number of vessels growing exponentially from roughly 285 in the world today to over 700 over the next few years. In doing so, these vessels need fuel. Currently, the vast majority of LNG bunkering occurs outside the U.S. However, given the United States’ favorable competitive positioning in natural gas – so supply reliability, security and price, the U.S. has tremendous potential to be a premier bunkering hub. This will require considerable technical, operational and infrastructural capabilities. Barriers to entry are high, and for a supplier to ultimately be successful in bunkering, they must have the ability to source and deliver volumes in scale, they must have the mobility and flexibility to bunker in a variety of ports, they must have considerable technical and supply chain capabilities, and they must have the ability to deliver fuel simultaneously with vessels loading and unloading their respective cargoes or passengers. While we have had great success over the last few quarters delivering bunkering solutions to customers and we continue to materially increase the number of commercial discussions with prospective customers, it is important to note that the U.S. LNG bunkering market, while growing, is still at an early stage. As I’ve mentioned earlier, unlike our industrial business, marine commercial cycles have long lead times and many prospective customers are still in the process of determining their strategies for fueling their new assets, many of which won’t hit the market until next year. In the meantime, we will continue to lay a considerable operational foundation in addition to evaluating the expansion of our assets and infrastructure to capitalize on this most exciting market. Outlook in our export business, while very positive, is also still at an infant state. However, I strongly believe that the prospects for the exportation of considerable volumes the U.S. Department of Energy has granted us are very compelling. As increased demand, geopolitical uncertainty and dislocation and natural gas prices continue, we are well positioned to be a valuable participant in the export business. We will work diligently to expand our scale, and for our business to be successful, additional capital and operational investments will be required. As we think about financing, we will explore a variety of prospective debt and equity sources of capital, with heavy emphasis and focus on those that know our industry and our company. One of the attractive components to small-scale LNG is the ability to rapidly deploy capital in a modular fashion with potentially strong and quick returns on capital. Our prospects are exciting and certainly not short-term. Stabilis is very much positioned as a long-term growth story and a highly asymmetrical opportunity to invest in a rapidly growing company with a proven and durable business model, diversified across multiple sectors and geographies. And with that, I will turn it over to Andy to discuss the quarter results.

Thanks, Westy, and good morning, everyone. Stabilis had another good quarter in Q1, building on the performance we saw last year and generating positive net income and double-digit EBITDA margins for the quarter. For the first quarter of 2023, Stabilis reported revenues of $26.8 million, 32% higher than the year-ago quarter, but down 9% from the fourth quarter of 2022, in part due to the completion during Q1 of a short-term bunkering project that Westy referred to in his comments. Net income from continuing operations was $1.1 million in the quarter compared to a net loss from continuing operations of $0.4 million in the year ago quarter. Net income from continuing operations was $0.2 million in the fourth quarter of 2022. Adjusted EBITDA for the quarter was $3.5 million compared to $2 million in the year ago quarter and $3.9 million in the fourth quarter of 2022. We ended the quarter with $7.9 million of total available liquidity. The reduction in cash balances from the fourth quarter relates to the purchase of liquefaction, bunkering and storage assets, which can be quickly deployed to a variety of locations to support anticipated growth. We have sufficient liquidity to fund our operations, and we believe we have access to a variety of capital sources to fund our growth initiatives. This concludes our prepared remarks. So at this time, moderator, please open the line for questions.

Certainly. At this time, we will be conducting a question-and-answer session. [Operator Instructions] And the first question today is coming from Martin Malloy from Johnson Rice.

Good morning. Congratulations on another nice quarter.

Thank you, Marty. Good morning.

My first question, I just wanted to ask about something that was in the press release. The comment about results in the next couple of quarters, maybe uneven as individual projects are completed. Could you maybe talk a little bit more about those projects and what’s causing the uneven results? Is it additional expenses that are incurred when the projects come online?

Yes. So if you put in the two buckets that we talked about, the industrial, much shorter sales cycles, but really, what we’re referring to is that marine side. And that’s still in its nascent stage of expansion. And so there’s going to be some lumpiness as these vessel owners and operators make, I think, poignant decisions in and around how and where they want to have infrastructure to bunker. And so we were successful and have been successful and operated on three coasts in the first quarter, and I anticipate us to continue to operate across a variety of geographies moving forward. It’s just – it’s going to be a little lumpy until that business matures. And you also got to remember that a large portion of those newly commissioned LNG ships aren’t going to hit the market really until the beginning of next year. And so there’s a lot of foundational work that’s being built today. It doesn’t mean there aren’t bunkering opportunities right now, but the real scale starts beginning next year. And that’s what we’re laying a solid foundation for, is to have infrastructure or at least sightline to infrastructure, sightline to backlog. Obviously, marrying those up as best as possible. And so it’s going to be a little choppy in that business between now and the rest of the year. But make no mistake, the lens in which we’re looking through with potential in the future is considerable.

And could you maybe talk about how you’re thinking about expanding potentially liquefaction capacity in light of that expected demand that you see increasing?

Yes, without getting into specifics, we are looking at brown and greenfield expansion across multiple geographies, certainly in the U.S. And that’s not relegated just to the Gulf of Mexico. That’s the East Coast. That’s the Mid-Atlantic in the East Coast. That’s down in the Florida region. That’s up and down the entire West Coast. There are a variety of opportunities for us to be thoughtful around the deployment of capital to service what we see is the potential for considerable demand. Again, there’s a pace of play here. You don’t want to get too far ahead in your supply chain until you have a little bit more affirmation in your commercial side. But at the same time, you don’t want to have a massive amount of commercial opportunities and not doing – be preparing your infrastructure and supply chain. So we made some steps in that direction in the first quarter. As Andy alluded to, we put some capital dollars to work in some mobile and modular storage, bunkering and liquefaction capabilities. One of the great things, as I mentioned about this business, is that, that can move to a variety of different geographies. We have some thoughts around where it’s going to go. But we are – we’re giving ourselves a really fluid and flexible platform and spending some money in advance to be ready – primed and ready to go as this commercial book of business continues to expand, like we think it will.

That’s great. Thank you for taking my questions.

Yes. Thank you.

Thank you. The next question is coming from Barry Haimes from Sage Asset Management. Barry, your line is live.

Good morning. Good quarter, guys. Thank you. Two questions. One is, is bunkering profitable yet? And if not, what sort of size does it need to get to, to get into profitability? So a little flavor for that. And secondly, you broke out the percent revenues for bunkering, but could you do a similar thing for aerospace? What percent of revenues were aerospace during the quarter? And how might that compare to a year ago or last quarter? Thanks.

Yes. So bunkering is profitable today, absolutely. It’s – one of the benefits is that there’s a lot of utilization from our core industrial business, some of the technical aspects, some of the operations, engineering, even equipment that is absolutely utilized for bunkering. The real main difference is, in bunkering versus our core kind of industrial business line, is really the kind of the sales cycle, and it’s just longer lead times in and around the reasons I just mentioned. There will be some additional kind of CapEx – not necessarily. There’ll be some OpEx, but some CapEx for infrastructure that’s unique to that marine business. But absolutely, it’s a profitable today, and it’s our aspirations to have that trend continue as we kind of venture into the future and scale that business. Aerospace for the quarter, I think, Andy, was a little over 5%. And comparing that to the first quarter of last year, it was down about 300 basis points, more or less. That’s – until there’s longer-term ratability in that aerospace business, it’s going to be very similar to the industrial, kind of shorter sales cycles, demand from our space customers. As you can see, some of the trial and error that goes on in that space business, sometimes you get an onslaught of needs and sometimes it will be somewhat of a dormant sales cycle, But I think ultimately, as the private sector continues to mature their operations and get more consistent in their kind of pace of play, we expect there to be more ratability in the space. It’s just not there right now, but we feel pretty good that in the intermediate and long-term it will be.

Great. Thanks very much.

Yes.

The next question is coming from Bill Dezellem from Tieton Capital. Bill, your line is live.

Great. Thank you. A group of questions. First of all, relative to the growth in revenue versus the first quarter, I think you referenced take-or-pay in the press release was a meaningful part of that. Would you discuss kind of just the commercial realities behind what led to the take-or-pay fees? And presumably, that’s roughly 100% margin, as opposed to have those customers taking the gas that would have been then a more traditional gross margin.

Yes. And so you got to understand that there’s not kind of one-size-fits-all bunkering operation. You have offtake with a variety of different customer types that have different rationale for bunkering. We will sometimes be a direct supplier to the vessel operators and owners. Sometimes we’ll be a subcontractor. Sometimes we’re providing a complete turnkey solution, with engineering product design, development, regulatory, fuel supply. Sometimes it will be third party. So there’s not one size fits all. So you got to look at the totality. And so to the extent that you’ve got take-or-pay, there may be instances where commodity prices shift or change, and a customer changes the perspective and their desire to take that fuel and so they’d rather pay a penalty. Other instances where their offtake or their needs are high and their operational tempo is high, and they want to take the fuel. You have disruptions in vessel ports of call. You have just a variety of things, Bill, that can contribute. So it’s hard to really kind of pinpoint it to one thing. But looking at the totality of it, is really the way to think about that.

That’s helpful, Westy. So this – the take-or-pay this quarter had nothing to do with warm weather in the Northeast and the base loading that you have been supplementing historically, this is in the bunkering arena?

That’s correct. That’s exactly right.

Okay. That’s quite helpful. Thank you. And then relative to the sequential decline in revenues, what industries led to that change?

That’s really around the oil and gas industry. That’s – we love it. We love that part of our business. I’m glad it’s got the weighting that it has. In my prior life, it was a much heavier weighting. But that’s – there’s some ebbs and flows in the oil and gas world, and that was the main driver.

And so – I’m totally breaking the rule of the operator to ask for one question only, so you can cut me off at any time you’d like. But I guess the rig count and the completion activity seemed to be somewhat steady in the first quarter. So did you have something – just a customer making decisions to pull back? Or what changed there that maybe we wouldn’t see with looking at the rig count or completion count?

Yes, I’ll answer that in two ways. One, this one was more specific to – really centered around one customer. But more broadly speaking, remember that there are a variety of different offtake points in the oil and gas business. And so you can have people who are under extensive maintenance or unplanned outages, or there are variety of things that can contribute to a decremental revenue. As well as an incremental, rig count could increase. But it’s not solely dependent upon just rig count, there are a lot of other kind of drivers that could enhance or reduce revenue output from our perspective in the oil and gas business.

Thank you. And then natural gas prices in the U.S. are much lower than they have been in 2022. I guess it raises the question, does the lower natural gas price drive increased interest from prospective customers? I guess the question is, how much of just pure economics in terms of cost savings lead to your prospective customers making a decision to use LNG?

So let’s talk about a couple of venues. I think it’s a huge contributing factor, that kind of spread between alternative fuels and LNG. And you mentioned it, with natural gases in that kind of two handle or slightly above, we feel like we are very well positioned. Especially, as I mentioned, the demand that’s come of prospective customers wanting to potentially even talk to us about longer-term positions over several years to capitalize on these lower prices. A bit of arbitrage on their part, and that’s been a really strong kind of inbound for us. As well as we have proactively been utilizing that as a proactive sales tool as we talk about new and incremental customers. But price has been and continues to be a driver, along with obviously the demand, and ESG and cleanliness of natural gas. But make no mistake, price has and, we feel, will continue to be a driver now and in the future.

Thank you. And then one additional question to expose my ignorance here. The ultra-low sulfur diesel IMO 2020 standards went into effect, I think, in 2020. And so I guess the question is, why is this business still increasing? It seems as though, I guess thinking out loud, that it – the shipping companies should have made the transition two or three years ago. What am I missing here?

You’re not missing anything. And you’re right, they should have. But oftentimes, we don’t necessarily react – they or one doesn’t necessarily react as expeditiously as they probably should have. And I think the cold, hard reality, not only of the IMO having this mandate to lower sulfur emissions, call it, in the 85% range, but you kind of pair that with some of the pressure of a lot of the retail and other shipping customers who are starting to be more vocal about their expectations for their shipping carrier providers to provide a cleaner, more sustainable solution. I think that’s also been the impetus for a lot of these shipping operators and owners to really get off the center and start doing something about this. And they have. Remember, these ships aren’t built in a matter of weeks, they’re built in a matter of years, and so there’s quite a bit of lead time. And so for ships that have – that are already have been commissioned, those that were commissioned this year and those that will be commissioned thereafter, you’re talking about maybe one to three years in advance. And so it’s an engineering marvel. It’s a lot of different things that go into this. And so some have waited, some have not. There’s no real good answer to your question other than what your instincts would tell you.

So Westy, to what degree would you agree with the statement that the regulatory teeth around IMO 2020 have been soft enough that it has really allowed the shipping companies to use the effective date of when they were supposed to be done almost as the start date on when they could go to the regulators and say, yes, gosh, so sorry. We’re in progress. Look at what we’re doing. We’ve ordered a ship. We’re making this transition, et cetera, et cetera, and that really lengthens out the true economic expense for them and then the start-up time for you all.

Yes. I don’t – it’s hard to really kind of put myself into the hearts and minds of the owners and operators. I’ll say that one of the things you got to remember is these are predominantly dual-fuel vessels, and so it’s not like they are holistically running LNG. What they’re trying to do is create either arbitrage or optionality for themselves based upon availability of the lowest price point and the highest energy density fuel in the markets in ports of call that they call on. And so it doesn’t mean that these ships can’t also run diesel, low sulfur diesel, they will. And in some instance, they’re going to have to because there’s the torque and idle time when the dock that LNG is not as responsive, so there’s other kind of engineering and technical reasons. But for me to say that they waited until there was some teeth, I don’t know that I can answer that. I can say that this time last year, there were about 100 ships in and around the market that we’re focused on, the subset of the bunkering, and that’s going to grow about sevenfold over four years. Some of which placed orders several years ago, some placed them now. So it’s – I think the bigger takeaway is, if you look at the scale of this business over the next one, two, three years, it’s considerable. It’s considerable. And nine times out of 10, to the extent that a shipping company can bunker with LNG, we have very strong reasons to believe that they will. It’s – and they want to do that in the U.S. given the price arbitrage. It’s just we organizationally and as a kind of an industry, we need to be making that availability a reality with infrastructure and supply chain and technical know-how. You don’t just show up and bunker ship, there’s a lot that goes into it and high barriers to entry I mentioned. We think we are far, far, far and away one of the leaders along that continuum in doing so.

Great. Thank you for taking all my questions. Really appreciate it.

Yes, of course. Of course, thanks, Bill.

Thank you. The next question is coming from Liam Burke from B. Riley. Liam, your line is live.

Thank you. Good morning, Westy. Good morning, Andy.

Good morning.

Westy, in terms of LNG export, what types of customers are you fielding inquiries from and what kind of volumes are people talking about?

So think kind of 20,000 cubic meter vessels and smaller. So this obviously is not a world-scale business for us. But if you just did simple math around the art of the possible, the Department of Energy has given us a license to export up to kind of just shy of 52 Bcf of natural gas equivalent annually. And so this year was a little bit challenging, just given the unseasonably warm climate certainly in the European realm, but we have strong conviction that over the next 28 years or 27 years of our license that it’s going to get cold again and we – in Europe and it’s a bit of a gamble, I guess. But what we want – yes, exactly. But what we want to do is we’d be remiss if we didn’t at least kind of primed the pump and have our infrastructure and docks in a row because, I mean, it could happen as early as this fall. As forecasters start to think about geopolitical unrest in some of these international markets and you start thinking about some of these cold weather environments, we want to be ready to go. I don’t have anything tangible right now. But rest assured, we are ready to fuel vessels, and we will be ready to fuel vessels at kind of the 20,000 cubic meter and below.

Okay. And you talked about servicing three ports, I believe, now with LNG bunkering. Obviously, this is a scale where you have to combine sourcing and then provision. But how many additional ports do you think you’ll begin to service this year?

Good question. I think, ultimately, it’s going to obviously depend upon that pace of play. But I think when the dust settles, whether it’s this year or the next, we’d like to be in six or seven different geographies in and around in North America. I’m not trying to not answer your question, but there’s a lot of different things that we are evaluating literally as we speak. And so stay tuned on that. And you’re right. You’ve got to, at this point in time, source or have trading positions across a variety of different supply points. That’s what we do. We are really, really good at that. And to the extent that I have other competitors out there, that’s just not kind of their competency. And so we’re pretty proud of our capability there. We’re really good at that. We’ll continue to do that. We’ll continue to supplement that with kind of green and brownfield infrastructural investments. So we’re really excited about having a pretty broad network in that North American market over the next year, two, three years.

Great. Thank you, Westy.

Yes. Thanks.

Thank you. [Operator Instructions] And the next question is coming from Spencer Lehman. Spencer is a Private Investor. Spencer, your line is live.

Yes. Hi guys, good report. And you’re in a lot of exciting, interesting areas. And unfortunately, you’re sort of off the radar as far as the financial community. And I know you’re a small company and – but I’m just wondering, it’s a long wait in between quarterly reports. And I’m just wondering if you could – as long as you’re not hurting any competitive advantage, could you come out with some news more often to talk maybe a new contract or a new area or – you know what I mean?

Yes. Good point, and thanks so much. I think kind of my perspective is when I joined the company, call it, roughly 18 months ago, I wanted to make sure that we had an optimized business and an optimized kind of approach. We, I think, have made great strides in doing so. And then in addition to that, I want to make sure that, Spencer, we had some real commercial meat on the bone and tangibility. What I don’t want to do is I don’t want to be a, I’ll say, just kind of a press release machine. But I think it stands to reason that over the next several quarters and years, that the pace and velocity and volume of interaction with investors will increase as we continue to do our job because we’ll just have more tangible things to talk about. But over the last 18 months, we want to make sure our house is in order, and I think it is. And now the real exciting stuff is hopefully going to start bearing fruit. And so we’ll be thoughtful around that. And I think, hopefully, more vocal around that as well.

That makes good sense. And I didn’t mean to – for you to hype the stock with the announcement as much as just out of interest. I get impatient waiting so long in between. So whatever you can do that does not expensive or, as you say, competitively disadvantage to you.

Understood. And I’ll – rest assured, you’re not the only one that’s impatient, I promise you.

All right. Thanks.

I am too. I am too. Thank you, Spencer.

Thank you.

Thank you. And next, we have a follow-up from Barry Haimes from Sage Asset Management. Barry, your line is live.

Thanks. Yes, I have two quick follow-ups. One, on the bunkering business, you mentioned that about 100 ships serve the U.S. market or in markets where you would serve to date. So can you give us some feel for how many of those 100 you serve to date, just a feel? And then secondly, just looking at next year, 2024, how many ships – new ships will be coming in the market compared to the 100? And then second question – let’s do that one and then I have one on the export license.

Yes. So on the 100, it’s – I’m not going to get into the actual specifications around how many. I will say that the good news is or the bad news is it’s a small percentage. But the good news is it’s a small percentage. Meaning there’s a tremendous amount of runway for us and go get for us to go get. And so we’re really excited about that. Sorry, second question was...

How many new ships coming into the market next year?

I’d have to circle back with you on that. I don’t have that exact number. And so let us get back to you on that one if we can.

Okay. Great. And then one question on the export licenses, the way you described it, Westy, is it fair to say that what you really have is a call option should Europe have a cold winter and need spot cargoes? Is that the right way to think about it?

That is. And so there’s a couple of ways to think about this. One is it’s a call option, whether it’s Europe or elsewhere. Remember, I’m not relegated just to Europe, I’ve got a license to go to all free trade and non-free trade – obviously, non-OFAC, but all those countries outside of Europe as well are all fair game for me, provided that we, as Americans are allowed to export. And so that’s all very much in play. But also, we’ll look at this through a couple of different lenses. There may be scenarios where we are very comfortable with that counterparty and we generate some maybe margin in the U.S. market, but share and some upside commercially abroad as they place those molecules internationally. There may be other instances where we’re not enthusiastic about that kind of commercial model, but we think we’ve got a tremendous amount of flexibility to do a variety of different things globally. Also, there’s opportunities where maybe there’s some ratability there. Maybe somebody wants to sign on for 6, 9, 12 months of off-take. Some might be more opportunistic. I’m just excited that I’m not pigeonholed into one kind of business model. And yes, we’ve got to use your word optionality and flexibility across a variety of different commercial and operational fronts that allow us to really yield results from our export business.

Great. Thanks so much.

Yes.

Thank you. And next up, we have a follow-up from Spencer Lehman. Spencer, your line is live.

Yes. You guys didn’t talk too much about some of the alternative fuels that you sort of have in the background in case there’s a lot of anti-fossil fuel mentality developing in the country, and do away with gas stoves and et cetera. And I’m just wondering if that’s something that you can talk about a little bit and – whether it’s hydrogen or whatever you have, yes.

Yes. No, it’s a good question, and thanks for bringing that up. We very lightly touched on our aspirations to expand those offerings to additional kind of clean and emerging fuels. And I think the way to think about this is kind of how we want to iterate into that. Said differently, our first kind of, I think, goal would be to have fuels that are really in partnership or a great marriage to our LNG business. So think biofuels, think renewable RNG, think RNG and other kind of areas that can marry into that. But also along the continuum, there’s going to be, I think, a continuing expanded demand for methanol in the shipping business. And so that’s something that we’re looking at. We’re looking at ammonia. Hydrogen is one of those tricky ones. Not that – we’re rolling it out and we absolutely are putting teams around that to further evaluate that. I don’t think hydrogen is kind of here and now for us today. I think there are other bespoke kind of clean emerging fuels that act as real companion to our LNG business. So I don’t know if that answers your question.

Yes. Yes, that’s good. It’s – the more you can talk about that, I think it for certain parts of the investment community that might be really interesting.

It is. I’ll tell you one last kind of anecdote here is I don’t want to, in two years, have our head in the sand and not being, I think, thoughtful and open about the art of the possible and realities around the introduction of other clean fuels into our offering. And so we aren’t waiting, we are building capabilities around that today, realizing it might be tomorrow. But today, we want to start getting smart and thoughtful around how we’re going to attack this.

That sounds good. Thank you.

Yes. Thanks, Spencer.

Thank you. This does conclude today’s Q&A session. There are no more questions in queue. I would now like to hand the call back to Westy Ballard for closing remarks.

Great. Thanks again for joining us, and we look forward to seeing you out on the road in the market very soon. Take care.
