the revenue and is year last versus will translating sales Those then yield year year. second roll we as are additional of out this hopefully we half difference additional we into start the to pilots forward through go into starting year this go The that start sales, will pilots. as do

heavier we we're if our growth be expenses will, are our weighted core guidance you of those expenses half the the going what to this be to said if first seeing in the year in by will you guidance, So organic and absorbed, and about it, which think in business.

the be the start only we'll in guidance and but some and ramp most on but half get ramp is in seeing that benefit not guidance, the our in we'll up it but we there do, start of where not depending upside second for as how plan, to the potentially and those in expenses half goes. the and both the offset up benefits the the some some Most And seeing it's to current benefit, is associated, may second of plan. limited

Sam England

to just to of still rest the particularly do plan you the one around I any the are large bridge year? of deliver then to there the And the X.X XX%, what's GAAP parts is need on left plan. wondered, to up this second

Douglas Pertz

the U.S. when for frankly targeted out achieve XX% and is the the number Well, specific plans very that's well with Dunbar BreakThru Argentine Initiatives laid part out that. and associated and U.S. our XXXX benefits were X.X the of as strategy that of X.X as synergies we There before so a rates as say as of are XX% combination you laid to run for that the more beyond continued

the on going out plus - out we XXXX XX% and full what year from look U.S. that's about for going op income this X% So the we apologize. year hasn't next of changed year that it we've then I XXXX year being to that hit year laid that I'm this talked from sorry really next before

Jeff Kessler

to you're a I terms in know more you've of way you, of of can about going X, quarter just the will that we recapture towards - number a on our actually into flow, become cash amount today perhaps the this in as a fourth be increase capital being that And of that you've move analysts elaborate many well lot to begin free talking going this from I'm about cash begin talking to wondering, talking as slightly possibly June because inflationary happen on and on the that to what's - Argentina. at to as as start Doug, think able can at metric flow a it on that given that times to or cash towards one, start free times indicator? investments talk but some is you're and XXXX about a alluded valuation a flow Can but going number are you several expectation, you the as first I flow XXXX? you're bit looking XXXX free of say would going I below free of got particularly was in cash declining pressure focusing

Douglas Pertz

Yes.

So it good very is a questions.

specifically impact separate and beyond bifurcate piece, those. those least XX basis of then SPX But on for me we're period. specifics a now going me the global separate free more than on projections of pass around I'll the Let to that last for at and and the let flow rather cash some rest

improve on time this It's the it is that piece but period different free versus Argentina cash the the Argentina price flow. increases projected one issue free The on flow related FX is one issues. more of based cash is projections recovery to our to already local the seen a in offsetting clearly and for continue

we're That's projecting. what

And that's rest say, the million a hence is great Argentina, think be on suggesting you for the seeing it's we're without that think date the projection seen pretty and we it suggesting $XX transparency to as we've business look start straightforward and year projections this at turned laid why take that the I healthy. if negative we positive with fourth in year. in will least our we that the have and assumptions I a that at of into well reasonable darn providing are in the pretty piece, to quarter business out based guidance the going Argentina the and impact a

get customer strategy, combination related way to a laid of strategy and free it the related it's relatively think million that in the cash in services and value year investments of $XX is a investment CapEx our of do X.X investment But you piece the is is suggesting go a offering plus as compare the versus require year last to which OpEx one total past turns talked I portion great that as unique, low. obviously about and that but that we've that. that to that's higher CapEx that of to and more as So of OpEx we've out consider CapEx much that investment we you forward. differentiated, are other this generation, flow that we'll they is versus What the don't if investment, this

of it fact if into X.X growth, benefits long-term the OpEx is, from our get versus example current and BCPE The we CapEx organic it. and comes we'll is the year one be earnings expenditures though higher think initiatives being will

generated customers, capital our organic that less others input. higher for margins that and our as with from we what think we're be higher growth such talking Our, better revenue solutions X.X solutions will for be total MoneyGram and that will in about are even

come and course margins drive anticipate and profitability at with the our I drive quite this - capital our lower also as then return looking if flow, as and such improve SPX, well our should growth significantly as margins, new over metric So we start drives down metric which else this, suggest higher it as does to looking it look in higher grows, everything a also of organic obviously higher we investments. capital forward should cash as investments, that on should how

course period good on three this that see suggest is over return where best our metric a would I over of to probably of goes the the invested time. years and metric capital So

capital. combination reduction invested So organic CapEx, in of you will see in a improvement margin, growth improvement in in and improvement

specifics wants he address cash if Ron to So I'll more for flow component. talk with or the free to that,

Doug the we merit. is that percent math, but have increasing included X.X% times cost spending. normalized in revenue our of the of our recurring cash CapEx X.X got looking moving returning deeper of arrangements X.X% million in the in our revenue, devices we're that simple from echoing in more revenue there and associated wider is capital But said, has our I X.X any strategy, of $XX to flow It's and also fees a also to some Doug service model, just monthly has at is lease a with of object of targets our and global our only lower that X.X% on of and to mentioned Jeff, a make Yes, trifecta, about had not XXXX sure with a top improved that at CapEx as that and margins, got higher we've recurring. think more lot a investments towards
