Questions and Answers:
Samik Chatterjee - JPMorgan Chase & Co, Research Division - AnalystThere was the opportunity to pursue a large TAM, which was one of the reasons that you had outlined in terms of your interest for Coherent. How do you intend to go about that same strategic rival now? What are the different parts that you can see to get to that same outcome without Coherent?
And before I let you answer, let me just take a pause and remind investors you can send in the question as well. You just have to ask -- use the Ask a Question button on the website, and we'll ask it on your behalf.
So Alan, sorry for that. Please go ahead.
