“equests, we ensure that our capacity expansions are additive to our OPACC growth. Today's announcement reflects the continuation of this disciplined and measured approach. The additional investment will begin as soon as possible but primarily occur from 2027 through 2029.

We believe we are well positioned to deliver long-term profitable growth. And finally, earlier this month, we announced that Kyle Epley will succeed Andrew Bonfield as CFO effective tomorrow.

He's made our global finance organization a strategic advantage and has impacted long after”
