Johny Fernandez: All right, you guys. Welcome back. So I'm here
with John Celifarco from Horizon Funding Group.
John Celifarco: How's it going?
Johny Fernandez: Good. How are you?
John Celifarco: I am good. Very happy to be back at Broker Fair.
Finally, it's been, well, it's been a minute.
Johny Fernandez: So let's talk about your expectations. I mean,
everyone's back here. Things feel like they're back. It's
2019. All over again, walk me through what your expectations
are for today.
John Celifarco: Just reconnecting with people. It's
been so long since you've been able to see people in person.
Yeah, you try to get a feel for where all the companies are at
how they've moved through COVID. And what the future holds.
Johny Fernandez: So let's talk about horizon. Where are you
guys at? How's business going? Let's talk about like, all the
new implications you put in when we last spoke, what's the
update?
John Celifarco: What is up, thank God, all of the things
that we put in place to help us get through COVID. Most of them
have worked out, they've panned out deals of funding. And things
are looking good. The future's bright. I mean, it was a tough
go there for a little while. But all in all, we ended up I think
better for it. We found that we could do some things we didn't
know we could do. We trimmed some fat in places where we
weren't being as profitable. And all in all, we've come out of
COVID a better company.
Johny Fernandez: So let's talk about today. There's different
panels going on. There's a broker culture panel going on.
There's discussions about New York law, there's just a whole
bunch of different topics. What are you looking forward to the
most?
John Celifarco: I gotta say the law one I'm very interested with
the the new law coming out in New York that can really affect
us and everybody in general. And then also the great debate.
That's always a great time seeing some of the leaders of
the industry talk and sort of go back and forth on where the
future holds.
Johny Fernandez: Awesome. All right. Well, thanks so much.
John Celifarco: My absolute pleasure, sir, always great
Johny Fernandez: Awesome. Allright you guys, that's it for
seeing you.
