Unfortunately, we cannot.

That's confidential information.

I think it was decided to not share the breakdown.

And now we have the same board of investors.

Elivio is of course different.

We respect the existing investors.

But as a starting point, we want to balance them as 50-50 as possible.

And I think that is equally important.

But then, yes, we are in many ways on the same journey.
