We kicked off the year by announcing 00:00:09.700 -- 00:00:14.824 the combination with Color Capital.

We launched our new AI infrastructure strategy, 00:00:25.694 -- 00:00:30.018 and we had a record quarter in terms of net inflows to our evergreens. 00:00:30.018 -- 00:00:35.192 This quarter again faced significant volatility across markets, which affected our fund 00:00:35.192 -- 00:00:40.166 valuations in different directions.

In this 00:01:15.456 -- 00:01:20.825 environment at DQT, we remain focused on executing on our strategic 00:01:20.825 -- 00:01:22.825 priorities. 00:01:22.989 -- 00:01:27.998 And as we're entering the second quarter, I'm happy to say that we 00:01:27.998 -- 00:01:30.282 continue to see strong 0...
