Q: Can you comment on the ADF backlog drop from $330.3M vs $510.9M at the start of the year? It appears to be partly related to a strategic decision having recently declined a $150M Amazon project due to low margins (8%). I think this illustrates some management discipline - profitability over pure revenue growth with management prioritizing margin quality over volume. Curious about your thoughts?

Q: Well Health has had a very nice run as of late and you seem fairly confident in its continued growth.

It is now about 3.5% of Total Portfolio. At what level do you think it would be good to trim since it is a small cap? Let it run, or take a bit off the table;)
