It doesn't sound like it's a capacity constraint issue as to why you're not increasing that. So is it just like lead times of when these orders are being booked?
when I run the math on the implication for the price that you're putting through on RLC, assuming it's kind of there, it's like a high single-digit percent increase
generally, looking historically, the first quarter orders convert at a similar level into second quarter sales. So I guess I'm just trying to get a sense on how to think about that $2.5 billion in ...
price expectations for the year now, based on what you're seeing from a commodities cost inflation perspective, do you still expect to be a kind of 1.5% to 2%?
the commentary you made on March and April being better and then the incremental pricing you put through in April
Has enough changed to alter your thinking there?
Did you observe any noncompliance in the industry that would impact market dynamics in fasteners
how does price/cost look in that relative to the way you're thinking about it?
What is embedded now for the guide for the year in terms of market outlook and for price?
is all of that decline coming from gross margin sequentially? Could you bridge the drivers between seasonal versus the private label costs, fuel costs, or meeting timing?
What do you estimate the MRO market volume did in the third quarter
Can you size that? I assume that's incremental to that 80 to 90 basis points

whether you've seen contract cancellations at all impact your business there and whether you've been able to backfill

is it similar for Grainger where you need a high single-digit top line to get the high teens incrementals that you need to expand your margins
Does it go from like, I don't know, low single-digit organic volume growth in the third quarter to something in the double digits in the fourth quarter year-over-year?

this amort coming down this year, can you just talk about the drivers? And is that related to this $400 million restructuring charge
what would you expect for the first quarter? Will you be up despite the tough comp?
tie the inventory being normal comment with like the growth that we're seeing on the balance sheet year-over-year. I know some of that's acquisitions
Can you give any context on the 9% in the first quarter, how much came from price versus mix
Just wanted to get some more clarity on the margin you expect there in the second quarter and then for the year
Did I hear you say you are going to do additional share repurchases this year? Is that embedded in guidance, or did I mishear that?
What is embedded in your new guide of 1% to 3% for the segment for industry sell-through?
The tariffs, I think you said to materially offset it, you thought that would be at the end of first quarter. Is that kind of slipped out to second quarter
from first quarter reported to the second quarter guidance, looks like the incremental margin is kind of in the low [ 20s ]
