This is Abigail Lake on for Wendy Nicholson. We just had one quick question. So you highlighted strong market share performances in many of your key categories like pretzels and -- like potato chips and tortilla chips. The trends are looking a little weaker in pretzels.
And we've noticed an uptick in social media activity related to pretzels, so is there anything going on in that category from a competitive perspective that could be impacting your performance there?

Eric, thank you for the question. I would say, it's really both things, I mean I think that PPE demand has remained elevated and strong that's certainly contributing and there is no question that as COVID test kits emerged on the scene. Remember, when we provided our guide at the beginning of this year, it wasn't such a thing as a COVID test. So as the scientific community or the lab community began to develop these tests whether molecular, antigen, antibody, because of our existing business in the lab, we were really well positioned to help get those to market quickly and swiftly and we have certainly benefited from the strong demand for COVID test kits.

Yes. Thanks. Ill start -- its John -- on just the Wave three stuff. I think its sufficient to say that thats sort of a work still in process. And so, we have a high sense of urgency. We recognize that we -- one, we dont want this to be an overhang in any way, a distraction for a management team or anyone whos thinking about the company. But its a bit more work to do there, in that its a mix of properties, its a mix of conditions on the ground, and the financial calculation about the investment thesis and the nature of potential actions going forward is more broad.
So, for example, when we talked about Wave one and two, what we said back in August was that that was a clear, compelling, no doubt about it, pin your ears back and go kind of a message that we were able to deliver, both externally and, of course, internally to our teams to go and build it. A bit more work to do to sort of work our way through value capture and creation in Wave three, so thats underway.
Certainly, to your question, federal or state-level subsidies and different programs that may come through in the various infrastructure bills are important to the calculus. It could shift some of the breakeven points on some of those investments. But its not the only factor. Theres a bit of sort of biz and strategic development that needs to accompany that effort as well.
So well be ready to talk about that in the next couple of quarters. Were not ready to give you anything more here today. But maybe, Scott, do you want to take the first piece about ARPU growth?

Sure, Alex. I'll take that one. So our rates offering is live and our Click-to-Trade solution has been rolled out and is growing. We're now over 200 clients. With regard to how our rates integration with our credit trading, high-grade trading, we do have a net spotting already on the platform. Clients are feeling the benefits of that as a result of the integrated price from the rates platform. It's a slightly tighter price then we're seeing on other platforms. Our net hedging is fully live. It's in production and rolling out client by client. We have just over 13 dealers, providing liquidity with a number of dealers in the queue to support that auto hedging as well, which helps the dealers on the platform. Auto hedging is also rolled out. We have close to 17 dealers live and benefiting from auto hedging. So the integration of our Rates platform and our credit trading platform has really, really gotten to full production and we're quite comfortable with that.
As I mentioned in our remarks, our Click to Trade solution is out and rolling out to clients. But we're more excited about the opportunity around RFQ and Open Trading, which is coming here shortly. Open Trading in particular across the full breadth of the treasury product group, which will be out before year-end. And that's really a unique offering that we don't see any other competitor offering in the treasury space where both dealer liquidity and alternative dealer liquidity can be found in one place in response to large RFQs across both on the run off the run. So really excited about 2021 and the treasury space here in the US.

I think, you've seen some of that already. If you look at the probe card market in 2020, it almost certainly grew faster, I mean, we'll find out in a couple of months when VLSI rolls up their survey. They almost certainly grew faster than the historical correlation with the semiconductor industry that we've observed. That also was the case in 2019. And so I think you're seeing the leading edge of some of these things. But each of the projects you talked about still pretty early innings. If you look at those as a fraction of wafer starts for any of our customers, they are still relatively small.
Having said that, they consume a good fraction of the test capacity because of the need for high test intensity and high test complexity to make sure you've got something close to known good die as we've talked about in various, well, most recently the Analyst Day we did last year. So, I think, you're already seeing the leading edge of this. If you look at our results and the probe card market results over the past couple of years, obviously, as the semiconductor industries continues to accelerate adoption of these, I think, various customers have made pretty firm comments that for 7-nanometer and 5-nanometer they view advanced packaging with these various architectures as being a big part of their innovation roadmap. I think, you'll see that probe card intensity continue to increase.

Yes. I think that they've evolved to be pretty consistent with what we expected when the project was first announced. So we had a pretty good idea of what will be involved in terms of construction and construction onshore for the electric transmission. There may be some additional benefits probably with onshore electrical because that's going to be given what we had to do to route this and to make sure we're connecting to the 500 kV.
That's part of what's driving the overall capital cost being greater. So bigger investment there. More job creation there. But I think the bottom line is this is going to be good for the Hampton Roads economy, good for the Virginia economy.
And I think that, that Siemens Gamesa announcement is really important because it starts the process here in Virginia, a state that is very well positioned, given its location on the East Coast, given its port and the access to the port, unobstructed by bridges and the Deepwater port, to be a real hub of offshore wind economic activity. We certainly support that. We supported that in working with Siemens Gamesa to put that blade factory here. So the more the better.

No. Pricing -- some of the competitors are introducing product at higher power levels and trying to get into that ultra-high power market. So 12-kilowatt lasers even. And certainly the only way they can compete is on pricing. So what we call the low end of the market not just on power, but really on pricing is moving up into higher power levels and impacting or reducing pricing there.
Our strategy though is really as we articulated to continue to deliver behind the value proposition of IPG's product and not get drawn into what -- it would be a terrific victory on pricing in terms of trying to compete at that low end of the market, which is just -- it's not focused on any kind of reliability or quality of devices using.
I think so far our strategy has borne out pretty well with fairly robust China sales, but good profitability on those And we're pleased with the way that gross margin and even total operating margin has continued to track in the second quarter Tom.

Yes. So it's we're still trying to get back to 2019 levels. Obviously not all restaurants have full capacity not all restaurants are open. There's been some impact on restaurant closures as a result of the pandemic the past 19 months. So it will take time I believe for the entire foodservice channel to get back and very robust. What I will tell you is our foodservice team has worked so hard to build distribution. We've got better distribution today than we did in 2019 pre-pandemic. We have better products in the marketplace. And we have better relationships with some of the key foodservice players in the market. And so I'm very confident that our team is well positioned to take advantage and optimize this return to going out to dinners and lunches and breakfast and the return of foodservice and also traveling as well.

Thank you and thank you for taking my question. It's a question to the CFO, it goes more to the point of the spending levels, as you have guided on for '21 and '22. Obviously, spending in '21 is going to be covered by the tax amendments currently in place in Norway. But my question is more precisely at what percentage of the 60% spending level in Norway is going to be covered by the amended tax regime in 2022?

Yeah, I think we have to really look at all places, whether it's trade schools or the maritime academies or it's going into the drivers schools or the military. We have close to 800 military personnel now, former military personnel now working for us, so that's been a great place for us to recruit from and we've got some real strong relationships with the Army there that we want to expand. But we have to do better. We are several thousand people short. Our revenues are constrained by our staffing and we also know that, from a safety standpoint, that first year employee tends to have a higher incident rate than certainly other employees, who have been here longer, more experienced, better trained. So really doubling down on training, onboarding and really trying to fill those open key positions that we have out in the field.

Yes. Operationally, we do execute a managed choke program for all new wells that we turn in line. So we're naturally choking back our wells for the first six to nine months. So that is an opportunity that lets us -- it's a lever we can pull to increase gas supply and take advantage of near-term price volatility. We have turned some of those wells open to get some -- to grab some extra production in the short term. And then as far as like our hedge book is concerned and sort of to the prior question that was asked earlier, is there anything else we can do there?
The repositioning of our hedge book that we've done has really been focused on sort of the short term, which we think we have a much better read on how the macro will play out. And so we'll continue to assess the environment as we get closer toward -- as we get through this winter through 2022, we'll always be looking at optimizing our hedge book to match what we think is going on in the market.

Hey, good morning. morning guys. Just on the PPP again, I know it's a bit hard to predict. But I guess what's your sense, given the activity that you're seeing so far on the cadence of the forgiveness for the next few quarters? Do you expect the majority to be forgiven by the end of the year or are we looking at this kind of going into the first or second quarter next year?

We always have a robust lineup for new products we did in '21. We have them ready to go in '22, and we got great ideas for '23. So as you know, retailers are interested in innovation and attracts consumers to the store increases, footfall. So I think we're in good shape for 2022. The question is, our consumers -- we do think that the balance sheet for consumers is healthy right now. So disposable income is up and savings rates are up. But going the other way is inflation, right? So one headline is the $4 for a gallon of gasoline. But as far as the willingness to buy new products and for demand to stay strong, the stimulus has ended. I do think household balance sheets are going to be strong -- are strong at the moment. And likely, we'll sustain strong demand for a couple of quarters, although visibility is poor beyond a quarter or two, as we all know. But we got a good lineup for 2021. And we do think, at least in the near term, the consumer has seemed somewhat flushed and that'll often influences their buying intent.

Yes. I think what you're talking about is just increased efficiency in using consumables, which is something that we know a lot about. In many cases, we're helping customers use consumables more efficiently so that they can reduce costs and just be more efficient with how they use materials. In the pads business, I think we talked about some headwinds in the past. Obviously, we've grown past those.
And again, I think what we think about for this business is there's so much opportunity for us to gain just because the difference between our position is, we believe we're the number two supplier and the number one is so great that there is a tremendous opportunity for us to grow our participation, especially given our ability to offer both slurries and pads at the same time in a consumable set that we've talked about as well. So, we're really excited about the business. We saw new wins ramp up. And this is something of a continuation of the narrative that we've talked about for a few quarters, which is again, a few headwinds growing beyond those, and we think of this as a strong growth business for us going forward.

I think the short answer is yes, but I'm not certain that it's a direct result of staffing shortages or it's also that many hotels continue to provide not full services. I mentioned in the comments, we've tried really hard to ensure in our hotels, which are all full-service hotels, that we get our restaurant open, that we attract them, we're offering services, we're bringing back valet parking, things like that, that the guests want and expect. I don't think we've reached the point of real dissatisfaction yet. And I think that's one reason why as an industry we're trying so hard to get and stay ahead of that.
So we don't have people kind of rejecting hotels as an interesting and fun and enjoyable place to stay.

Sure. I mean, there are a lot of questions. Let me address it at the key level where I think you were going. In terms of pipeline, the pipeline appears quite healthy across segments as I look at it today. I'll tell you without question we have a largest pipeline we've ever had as we enter Q3. And we're seeing this pace of sales cycles continue to improve. They're not quite where they were pre-pandemic, but they're continuing to improve. And it's a delicate thing right. I mean when we saw what the variance is the delicate thing. Things were moving a lot quicker. The variant came maybe slowed down a little bit. So it's a little bit touch and go. But generally speaking when you kind of zoom out, big growing pipeline, faster conversions and, most importantly, this clear acknowledgement on behalf of CFOs and frankly CIOs that they need to digitally transform their back office particularly in the area of how they spend money on their business.

Sheila, it's Bill. Now they're running on new deals close to 3%. Historically, that was in and around 2%. Renewals at 2.5% to 3%. So we've been -- that we've been experiencing that for the past couple of years, so that's been starting to flow through our same-store numbers.
