Bryan Jordan, our Chief Executive Officer, regarding the above-referenced filing, and of the follow-up letter from the Staff dated December 20, 2024 pertaining to our response dated December 5, 2024 to the Staff's first letter.

1. We note your response to prior comment 2, and your statement that if a non-GAAP or otherwise adjusted measure is your Company-Selected Measure, you will explain in narrative how the measure “is related to GAAP measures.” Please confirm, if true, that in future filings where your Company-Selected Measure is a non-GAAP measure, you will disclose how the number is calculated from your audited financial statements. See Item 402(v)(2)(vi) of Regulation S-K.
Response
We understand and appreciate this comment. We have reviewed both Staff letters and our December 5 response, and we agree with the Staff's follow-up comment. In future proxy statement/Schedule 14A filings in which pay versus performance disclosures under Regulation S-K Item 402(v) are required, whenever the Company-Selected Measure is a non-GAAP measure, we will explain in narrative how the Measure is calculated from our audited financial statements as required by Item 402(v)(2)(vi) of Regulation S-K.
