Q: Good Morning Team 5i & Everyone,

Do I have this right? The cybersecurity sector is selling off because of the fear that AI will eat their businesses? I’ve heard that Claude has the ability to scan databases for vulnerabilities and suggest targeted software patches for human review, allowing teams to find and fix issues that traditional tools miss. What I don’t understand is why Crowdstrike and the rest wouldn’t just use the same AI or some clone of Claude to make themselves even better at cybersecurity? Can you flush this topic out for me if you’re able to please? I’d like to understand the bear and bull case going forward.

Thank you very much & hope you have a nice weekend,

Sandra

Q: You seem to really like WELL and feel it is undervalued right now - Is that right ? Please give us an update on WELL as well as AIDX. On February 12 you answered a question regarding AIDX saying there was no news in 2 months. On that same day (likely after you posted your reply) there was in fact news on AIDX as well as more news on Feb 19. Are you liking AIDX more now and if WELL's stock price increases do you think AIDX would follow?

Q: Can you describe the growth potential of TER and whether you feel current prices are sustainable or I should wait for a pull back?
