Blue Apron’s next phase will be defined by focusing on our customers and our core business in order to return the business to growth in 2020. We’ve clearly and thoroughly demonstrated results in operational optimization and fiscal discipline throughout the organization. Now, we need to prove we can grow our customer base and revenue through both better execution and new initiatives that enable our core business to reach its full potential. Our market opportunity is large and we believe that it is growing, leading to significant unrealized opportunity within our core business once we execute our strategy.
