As a result, we returned to earnings growth one quarter earlier than expected, raised our adjusted EPSguidance for fiscal 2024 and reaffirmed guidance for adjusted free cash flow.

While overall March quarter volumes were lower than last year, our volume performance was better than anticipatedand substantially improved on the previous quarter with growth delivered across several categories and geographies. Acombination of sequential volume improvement, the realization of benefits from structural cost initiatives and maintainingour focus on flexing the cost base resulted in year over year growth in adjusted EBIT for the quarter. We expect ourmomentum will continue to build, including delivering mid single digit adjusted EPS growth in our final quarter of fiscal2024.

We remain confident in our capital allocation framework and strategy for long term growth. We believe our underlyingbusiness and market positions are strong and we will continue to invest for organic growth, pursue acquisitions orrepurchase shares and return cash to shareholders through a compelling and growing dividend.”
