“You know, I think our team showed a really strong resiliency and flexibility in the quarter.”
“David, our focus continues to be on the plan that we've been outlining. It is really about cash generation first, and I think the team has done an excellent job of prioritizing cash generation, and the strength of that in 2025, despite the earnings decline year over year, was evident.”
“Let me just start by saying how we have focused on 2025, continues into 2026. The priorities of increasing cash flow, intensifying our cost improvements and then driving top line growth.”
“We talked in early June about starting to see China automotive orders pull back a little bit. That has continued into the third quarter here. The other area in Engineered Materials that we've seen a little bit of weakening versus the second quarter is in European demand.”
“Look, we do have some tailwinds, particularly on the cost side as we go into the second half of the year. The first half is pretty heavy on turnarounds. There's probably around $30 million tailwind there.”
