We were cautious on market dynamics entering the third quarter and continued to take decisive price andcost actions. These efforts helped offset continued softness and increased volatility in the demandenvironment leading to a modest 2.5% decline in adjusted EBIT for the third quarter.

We are confident in the strength of our underlying business, customer value proposition and executioncapabilities. Our expectation that current market conditions will persist in the near-term means we are alsolaser focused on continued initiatives to recover inflation, drive cost productivity and advance previouslyannounced structural cost reductions. We have adjusted our fiscal 2023 outlook to reflect the challengingoperating environment and the actions we are taking give us confidence that earnings growth will build as we progress through fiscal 2024.

We remain focused on executing our strategy for long term value creation, which includes reinvesting in thebusiness for organic growth, pursuing acquisitions and/or regular share repurchases and returning cash toshareholders through a compelling and growing dividend.”

The net sales growth is primarily attributed to increased selling prices of $533 million due to the pass through of inflation, organic volume growth of 5%, and a $147 million favorable impact from foreign currency changes. These increases were partially offset by prior quarter divestiture sales of $62 million. The organic volume growth was primarily due to organic growth investments and continued recovery of certain markets that had previously been facing COVID-19 headwinds. The operating income decrease is primarily attributed to a $42 million unfavorable impact from price cost spread, and a $12 million increase in selling, general, and administrative expense, partially offset by a $24 million increase from the organic volume growth, and a $23 million favorable impact from foreign currency.
