May I ask Mr. Cody about the analysis of companies claiming the start-up tax credit? According to the review, the research and development tax credit is vital to our country, but is it clear that the credit is doing enough for smaller and younger companies, which is where we need to see research and development innovation, or are older and larger companies benefitting from it? Does Mr. Cody have some stats on that?
