Q1 organic growth reached 6.3%, well ahead of expectations, as European chocolate recovery and Easter strength combined with strong emerging markets performance. Middle East conflict drove approximately $350 million in cost headwinds offsetting the Q1 upside, leading management to confirm rather than raise full-year bottom-line guidance. Innovation pipeline gained traction while North America supply chain modernization continued.
