Unidentified Analyst -
It's my pleasure to have this year DexCom and their Chief Financial Officer and EVP, Quentin Blackford. We're going to dispense with preamble and go straight into Q&A. Before I begin, make sure you go to the research disclosure website at morganstanley.com and find fun facts and figures about me.
Questions and Answers:
Unidentified Analyst -So Quentin, I want to start with, frankly, guidance. Everyone's favorite topic here. So a couple of things here. U.S. and ex-U. S. With U.S., I'm going to spend less time on just because you've been sort of consistently conservative these last 4 to 6 quarters. But I want to talk about the ex-U. S. market, just one thing that stuck out to us off the second quarter. There were some order dynamics that impacted maybe -- the number was kind of not as good as we were expecting, maybe 3 million to 5 million was order dynamics. But maybe just help us understand what happened here in the second quarter? Is it a -- any indication of underlying trends or sort of more of a one-off dynamic in the second quarter?
