In December 2023, we acquired a company in Des Moines, Iowa, called Diamond Animal Health, which is a more traditional animal health company. We wanted to be a broader-based animal health company. However, in big pharma, there is clearly a trend where more investment dollars are flowing into the companion space, and especially our company, VPS. We do have some companion products on the Diamond Animal Health side of the business, but VPS is 100% dedicated to livestock.
