But as we said, we are fine-tuning our pricing strategies and our promos, and so you will see a little bit of more pricing kicking in, and that will have a positive impact on both the top and the bottom line.

In context

the team is full steam ahead in terms of delivering the season and -- so you will see a little bit of a volume step-up in Europe, and that's one of the drivers. I think you see emerging markets despite the numbers that on the face of it are in terms of volume/mix, maybe a little bit lower than you would have expected. As Dirk mentioned, there is a big impact of Argentina, but the chocolate elasticity in emerging markets is just 0.3x as of Q3. And we expect that not to improve, but not worsen either in Q4. And importantly, in places like Mexico, China, India, Brazil, et cetera, I think the top line will continue to be good. So yes, there will be a better top line going into Q4. In the U.S., we are projecting a market that is in line with the minus 4% volume wise that we have been talking. But as we said, we are fine-tuning our pricing strategies and our promos, and so you will see a little bit of more pricing kicking in, and that will have a positive impact on both the top and the bottom line. And so that's where we are at this point in time. Megan Christine Alexander: Okay. Great. And then maybe just as a follow-up. You talked about in the prepared remarks the new multiyear North America supply chain program. Maybe you can just spend a little bit of time helping us understand what's different about this from prior productivity programs and any early targets you can share today? Luca Zaramella: Yes, it is a plan that we have been reviewing with the team for the last, I would say, 6 to 9 months. It is leveraging the competitive advantages that we have in terms of supply chain already. I think if you look at our profitability in the U.S. in biscuits and compare it to other players, it is obvious that we have quite a few good things to -- that help us delivering good profitability
