Bruce Hausmann

XX:XX Keith, this Bruce. is

about had hoped As -- temporary quarters inflation, that some Fed we of when the by think had are on materials that was back talking some The that we a through start are see Unfortunately, we that now give and costs would that see couple QX. we still still inflationary seen we yet. have raw up, are we continued up, seeing and freight relief. the momentum costs not ago

through time to the flush So it P&L. take will all that for some to

inventory think release about buying timing that materials the raw If inventory you P&L. to of building to into having the actually

current is two some half year latter that, not we that. pulling One sure we'll we we protect levers need We margins through are to we're the -- and on know our that, are that that back, on part the pricing of move start offset the we because seeing the one that is relief our of is towards is absolutely to big sitting year. but meanwhile, we hope back hard as productivity, make

Kathryn Thompson

Okay. XX:XX

So four I from it's operational [Technical year? Difficulty] fair quarter trends think to say last versus

Dan Hendrix

Speakers] XX:XX repeat Could you that [Multiple

Kathryn Thompson

just, XX:XX question business consequences to is that ways? obvious How Okay. kind from I conflict with impacting less your Ukraine on unintended additional is up and wanted the obvious Russia. and or of there is follow One

Bruce Hausmann

that weigh-in. have stab you take Dan a then at and I'll XX:XX

So, we in our $X annually. million is around as business million and Russia revenue mentioned, profit around annually of $X

in We assets there. are about billion $X

So company, clearly they're immaterial at war but through people the go total out that, and disruption in our business is conflict. is is and good that news this there. with prayers Europe hearts to chain real. what risk XX:XX it's the and that to The minds supply the The around going relative

into today. in every I guide that situation is but particularly know our and affects it's know moves is we an Clearly, going gas based where up, we And business. us everything which single on so, that there energy and and that natural on day every baked energy think evolving Europe an week, we've our single and crisis affects

are as to really offset to And so forward not our of those we that really, we and we watching process that's make higher leaning sit I'll that, are pressure productivity. something are to we around back closely And rest are with the that of going we a still, and what going the for thought GP pricing we're result earlier, it XX:XX so, baked inflationary into extent sure go year. costs the to to I mentioned incurring

Kathryn Thompson

of Dan. [indiscernible] luck Great up. keep Dan. Thank my Best today. great. for working you with Okay, taking questions XX:XX you
