This is now the last compensation due for the acquisition of Balmonds, and we believe there remains significant potential to continue to grow the brand. Our partnership with Holland & Barrett remains strong. We are now in Boots, and we recently launched two new sunscreens for people with sensitive skin. Moreover, Balmonds has now sold more than 2 million pots of Skin Salvation since its introduction, proving the staying power and quality of our products."
