We delivered another solid quarter, representing a 16th consecutive quarter of year-over-year consolidated revenue growth, which grew 2%, expanded segment AEBITDA margins across all of our businesses and generated strong operating cash flows. We also repurchased approximately 1.9 million shares of common stock at an aggregate cost of $167 million (including excise tax) during the three months ended March 31, 2025.

In addition, in response to these tariffs, other countries have implemented retaliatory tariffs and other measures impacting U.S. goods. These tariffs place additional duties on imports, and we currently source a portion of the raw materials and components for our Gaming Business from China and across Asia. We have evaluated various mitigation strategies, including but not limited to, supplier diversification, adjusting supply chain operations, supplier pricing negotiations and cost control initiatives, among other measures. Over the past several quarters, through margin enhancement initiatives, we have
