Over the centuries, Olympics traditions linking sports and culture include the torch relay, the Olympic flame that's always lit, the Parade of Nations and the release of birds of peace, which dates back to the revived Olympics in 1896.
Who can forget one of the most stirring moments in Olympic history when Muhammad Ali lit the Olympic Torch at the 1996 Centennial Olympic Games&nbsp;in Atlanta Georgia?
Jumping ahead to the <a href="https://drupal-cloudfront.benzinga.com/topic/2024-paris-olympics">2024 Paris Olympics</a>, we've got another tradition taking the games by storm: pin trading.
Pin trading reportedly dates back to the 1896 Games in Athens when they were made out of cardboard and used to identify athletes and media — kind of like name tags.
The tradition has gone viral on TikTok this year so you know what that means.

Neal Lux, President and Chief Executive Officer, remarked, "Revenue and adjusted EBITDA both came within our guidance range, and adjusted EBITDA margins held steady at approximately 13%. We delivered robust free cash in the quarter of $21 million and announced the redemption and repurchase of $73 million of our 2025 Notes. Following our strong first half results, we are raising our full year 2024 free cash flow guidance to between $50 and $70 million. We are committed to retiring the outstanding balance of our 2025 Notes and the Variperm Seller Term Loan around the middle of 2025.
"Canadian and international market outlook remains in line with our expectations. U.S. rig count and hydraulic fracturing activity trended down during the second quarter and are expected to continue their decline in the second half. For the year, we now expect U.S. rig count to be down 15%. This represents a greater decline compared with our initial expectation of a 5% decrease. However, our international footprint, the Variperm acquisition, and benefits from our "beat-the-market" strategy should mitigate this U.S. industry softness. Therefore, we are maintaining the bottom end of our guidance, but adjusting down the top end by $10 million. Our full year 2024 adjusted EBITDA guidance is now $100 to $110 million."

Grid Dynamics is not able, at this time, to provide GAAP targets for net income/(loss) for the third quarter of 2024 because of the difficulty of estimating certain items excluded from Non-GAAP EBITDA that cannot be reasonably predicted, such as interest income, taxes, other income/(expenses), fair-value adjustments, geographic reorganization expenses, restructuring expenses, transaction-related costs and charges related to stock-based compensation expense. The effect of these excluded items may be significant.
