Darrell Heaps A Founder, Chief Executive Officer & Director, Q4, Inc.
We're not able to hear you, Kevin.
......................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
Kevin McVeigh Q Analyst, Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC
Hey, Darrell, can you hear me now?
......................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
Darrell Heaps A Founder, Chief Executive Officer & Director, Q4, Inc.
Yeah. Very good.
......................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
Kevin McVeigh Q Analyst, Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC
There you go. Thanks so much. And thanks for the call this morning. Hey, can you give us a sense of what type of
revenue we should assume kind of in Q4? And then, you know, I know it's a little bit early for 2023, but just what
type of revenue objectives we should think about within the context of the really nice work you've done on the
expense management?
......................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
Darrell Heaps A Founder, Chief Executive Officer & Director, Q4, Inc.
Sure. Maybe, I'll let, Donna take it.
......................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
Donna de Winter A Chief Financial Officer & Chief Operating Officer, Q4, Inc.
Absolutely. Kevin, we still feel that in this environment that we're probably in the range of half of what we had
seen as historical growth rates. And so in the past, we've been able to deliver on 30%-ish type revenue growth.
And our expectations and the way we're planning our quarters in this environment is in around that range.

Kevin McVeigh Q Analyst, Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC
So it would be about half [ph] that Donna said (00:37:06) in the 10% to 15% range, something like that?
......................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
Donna de Winter A Chief Financial Officer & Chief Operating Officer, Q4, Inc.
No. That's how I look at it, yes.
......................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
Kevin McVeigh Q Analyst, Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC
Great. And then what – it looks like on slide number eight, the number of investors connected to events each
quarter to about 400,000 this quarter versus 500,000 last quarter. Darrell, is it just a function of the macro? Or is
that some of the kind of client or obviously the uncontrollable client retention and anything to call out there?
