I forget the metrics at the moment of the first SoftBank investment, but at one point, Inc.

Magazine rated Flexport the second fastest growing company in the world.

They did this in the Inc.

I don't know how they did their math, but they were wrong.

We should have been number one that year.

It wasn't weighted.

I don't remember who it was, but, um, but we should, anyways, we were very fast growing company and a lot of times, yeah, that, that can kind of like cover up a lot of problems that we had.

We're still open to do it.

We do a lot with people.
