what's going more on allows you you could pricing at your it many volume? own so, volume there's by and you've the finally XX the day, past years produce think this to alone, they're when the you you about you -- by see keep be XX full And MSAs until that how the landfills, on book disposal big doing in every Jim going pricing pretty because the talked largest you well when about of and that volumes you visibility

James Fish

be and X.X% that's no talked is what career would about. to I be MSW here excited -- you assets that of well just But we outside as expect this, my at to and look it reason for yields X.X% numbers range have and prepared say the about think in tell you I will said, I for there we core be is my we're career, to not -- and will landfill I'm it but price going here, great

and three not I go, in price yes core this of good at it next QX something on I go think thing for thing where is okay, quarters, No, can but for ends year. this I'm a driving, time look expecting asked drawing MSW. get not calling your and landfills, from are like Senate way, we're, anytime to a be you not by why long it's on subcommittee X.X% XX% it's the

recovering not hopefully it's not bit going expansion. all, little -- adding obscene it's cost So really at to and a of just it's margin

John Morris

Micheal, particular I one it, would thing network that that mentioned to, another the performance transfer the how improving not add also well the and pay is it's of Jim stations network thing, landfills, indicator it, I of attention If one we is our it's performing. just all mentioned

Michael Hoffman

extension gate. it's the Well, to an

it's not, the So by make other? away in ought at it then you're it to trying to line. be up end it definition, If and one giving

John Morris

Exactly to not right, is which we're trying what do.

Michael Hoffman

Yes, don't subsidize competitor. the

put let's bed once. So and volume try to

because to volume mix. and that positioned the capture you asset and geographic consistently lend a itself and that have You us in little producing of to mix positioned on nature volume get should that all bit average? a then we comparison, to refresh Do relative context to the that of well than a of put you do a naturally would the to number you're of good and concentration want to sort mix remember your better why what it got asset is

Devina Rankin

it say about those is having can assets in the we and with would hit you've MSAs see What that markets. XX about that's markets that largest I talk the what in best-placed of we growth. XX on Yes, being placed well

Waste thinking be term. see at North the to and where, And focus asset just the will the network long positioned when trend so one those well-placed extensively we is how Management, benefiting the about we at a over on asset best leveraging leverage that we as today, business you in that urbanization American not network look economy, And but assets.

John Morris

Yes. differentiate we're the we're this And One thing has I investment is doing done about Michael the would digital a lot a that making reason job. talked that in digital team add ourselves. we to is to great the and

and feel and obviously different out customers. external our to asset would we which wanted be rolled There We digital network, differentiation through both a form differentiated been year open open of our feedback so on It's our now that ago has well market all market new excellent. is to second So we with examples add a a of tool base received. probably are residential from couple of very here. or approach of bringing tool. our residential been customers, The XX% customers customer internal going

XX%, will -- which XX% come I commercial it We be think through customers to directly months much out new will eventually will that that pace. at that ago, application. a lower a of it the number but number think a is fast short number tool, of customer-facing higher only go go it order, meaning a over that much certainly fact, majority, has The those couple rolled than in in, will digital XX% in growing

that is we the -- I heard fact, that last number tripling. that was number In that

think we having digital assets, we differentiate to fact, space network ourselves. to in addition a best-in-class that the in dollars rightly are of good, really So spending in

So terms terms technology. of asset will just it but differentiation not be location, customer-facing in of will be in

Michael Hoffman

spending, higher Devina, around that billion, Okay. number remainder but $X.XX didn't wrap -- year. what for us should you ribbon the model said the that, the be to cash you be and capital all than of flow I on for a say can we of would

XX% what should as be fourth do you from thinking flow full-year we So cash capital quarter? can the spending about and ops revenues, of in

Devina Rankin

Sure.

capital spending $X.XXX through I'll nine look And first. months, we the are So billion. you spending at if take piece capital at

us around $X.XXX we billion will point of indicators the to billion if to a back in So strong, right year. we XX rounded are for provided of our ops we finish of the rounding how would XX.X% release of is think that and cash one the points of really year, through $X.XXX months. see we indication expect billion. now, out will the that range conversion We've From up as is and XX-basis from end operations $X.X certainly press indication be is shows performing nine kind there, basis best effectively, out I revenue we flow a from of that part tables full a perspective, an that's we're a every improvement and strength cash up. you'll think where

Michael Hoffman

XX% Okay. I And XX%? have to from clear, in quarter, to has to doesn't just it do improve that, to fourth just to the you have at the to do hold It just mean be here.

Devina Rankin

right. That's

Michael Hoffman

Right.

How then and was sequentially? compared it to year-over-year churn the Okay. in And quarter.

Devina Rankin

non-renewals because renewing right sequentially. didn't That contracts our and that Churn quarter, those of business pricing about and is the decision we're it we were we've was appropriately intentional that's very was that higher were was it on disciplined year-over-year little the was that than we representative us reflect that ensuring accounts losses in pricing and been both driven that costs. X.X% a by and satisfied for national

Okay, you perfect. much. right, thank All so

Operator

next comes from Your of question Scotiabank. the Mark Neville, line

Mark Neville

you're sort Maybe business. macro slowing, could making the investments bit, seeing the maybe if very network, -- sort ask something in of the I perhaps pricing you're can doing way, you're be but another maybe a that it, pricing but of but not seeing slowing across maybe Industrials, good just it's obviously maybe

from look So just curious visibility, but XXXX, if -- at the lower XXXX you've I'm when XXXX or got good just think you I'm or I higher bias curious mean is you sorry?

James Fish

the -- side you're business about pricing, right of with around industrial to Mark? industrial respect And talking that specifically is

Mark Neville

consolidated. of -- business the industrial other well. parts and the industrial as Yes,

James Fish

I So mean, let's industrial XX%, mean, was of I well and really price X.X%. as tackle core translated of strong that strong, almost industrial yield into first. X.X%,

charts, It expected. might volume have to bit not little not not weaker we industrial off, was it roll anything not than industrial of I a mean business a little because -- look the if So is industrial, industrial that's all X.X%. that be necessarily I historically misleading, then at volume, think called that's back industrial for of off about, That's was specifically the that type but it's and a mean here's maybe way, concern as by it's you and line we bit customers. certainly in it's

nothing top there was roll-off super X.X%, about the It's was anything sequentially concerning, X.X% of on volume, to with of X.X% but write line it business, quarter, not home last X.XX%.

news business, in all with on down three but walk it's price of about the it's again, whether So the the quarters four and line quarters last where volume, been are been has big X.X%, commercial, we've us these commercial, it's for price X.X%, side every what's for almost of for we've track for you terms X.X%, or core impressive, today. and I if and industrial, talked numbers, the numbers not they

on of customer. digital that focus the the lot in the still we about So, really on a it our have it in asset differentiation all we the show or whether or power. in it's good talked that of whether them network is is pricing A whether it's

third it's from the -- really two doing or differently where we mean, years I years that we're really, ago the are on really that three we thing over-focused customers.

XX% what day the like that's news is, it's very that probably as So hear in economy us. still you I health the the percentage -- we is we consumer is that And the tell of said, for good. of overall, would a business every the

feels very So this other a volume event type XX% cases your XX% to work. a still of answers Hopefully business our feels bit wait that and both with a overall respect and But question. in of mode good price from standpoint, really some good. the see just

Mark Neville

recycling, on it's Maybe just said I believe understand to with want what guide. That's consistent QX. the of helpful. the Yes. sort you

$X.XX, headwind the QX year-over-year, interpreting guess I so the suggest, incrementally $X.XX, that that correctly? So about would $X.XX is if I'm it's not

Devina Rankin

to in benefit half, get was a million, think first the $X.XX. in the of back $X.XX QX, of to implies that $XX It to the about half #X.XX guide $X and that we've got $X.XX million, was in to negative you year worth yes, So so the full-year of we the effectively exposure $X.XX

Mark Neville

And the first to similar half next I discussions, All year right. is of tough comps. RIN guess,

bit next first as of half a year well? an impact So,

Devina Rankin

exactly right. That's

James Fish

that. -- mean It's hard from it in Yes. two -- hard $X.XX $X.XX predict mean, I is it's of it's -- literally I to period months. too gone to

we So we of months is the mirror that -- first kind the a took were big effect where six from slide.

So expect we expect that don't as resolution on election. we this around to approach the or but much, after be do get extent the we either knocked probably that then politically, continues this to there some will

two it I gets yes, say first as on the XXXX. difficult So the that pricing RIN much comparison, quarters say would a going it's and be probably are then half safe to of back into to we easier get

Mark Neville

looking ahead so last All be can milestones there on acquisition, or months of the of Maybe just sort the is QX? sort we one next for anything then, right. of any the few at Advanced one

John Morris

seen that nothing track the we is Yes, Mark, quarter, we honestly and but Morris. good the QX. timing I for is feel mean last I There that good mean and we've to similar path would that of continue us timeline, to our to-date we for cause work I down about line QX comments know track feel amend regulators the in John with to remain on XXXX. the this about still

a about working and the right is is we're terms what in think to now. that's next milestone -- clear toward I get of HSR milestone, significant your really to asking

Mark Neville

much. it. All thank Got right, you very

John Morris

Thank you.

I'm know $X.XX just or much the that months? gauge is helped that how the like that to

James Fish

million I on and the EBIT quarter don't revenues. have on the impact a million was $XX.X year $X that number impact -- number

Devina Rankin

So for ballpark from perspective, the year. EBITDA million $XX an it was

John Morris

wildfires we've puts I unfortunate are look called think we've cleanup, what's those before, we geographies. the have and John, business, but commented helping we that, important there. at Michael, in of every circumstances out kind that sure we like obviously this it's it of year -- is really the different in for seems kind takes those folks

So, back but go at 'XX, could are out some well. to QX strip year-to-date easy fairness, look 'XX it's takes there there we puts as in California, and in and and

is a year, say year really in past look the we haven't of the been it experience had. year a look So because lot to that out. we business historical that And the out little we going math hard we've it's bit, we're the adjusted at at from of and but just not but strip commented, is way that's hey, California runs to kind as a

Devina Rankin

million $XX wildfire it. had on our in, XXXX year wildfire fourth point in quarter of worth that start John's impacts XXXX year it's to did commenting I of out. think about do the and in Well, impacts and

when that the have comps that one we items have of the our eye in about we on. So QX, think you that's

Michael Feniger

how this much And is, helpful. how has lower. much and CPI trended can us is That's just, remind if, then CPI, do can you, obviously you you year

in does we think 'XX? question, more second I mechanical pricing, this is about know the of I half guess, a do of how impact that that So the how

James Fish

was about I that I use next year or X.X% CPI maybe X% that projecting we, we and think kind year. was think for X.X% was the our, for of economies the

tightly, So flat bake in our I be finalize could really, basis you think CPI year, it at we plan. probably we'll points look next not we're with if of when XX help it very but

Michael Feniger

take the then one, we I a mean of just, know last today just Fair there's right on I'm if asked been price just obviously basket parts. your of enough. now And and curious of as I just just my moving on recycling. lot. that's a lot

right just -- rate like we it and the clear for so given now, just we rate run if is deck what can run here EPS XXXX impact would Just basket just EBITDA it? be the the where

Devina Rankin

you this way earlier, that of biggest $XX, QX and was that $XX range think that of if hit I today, So versus about I they variability $XX kind of as where you easiest as and think mentioned is QX Jim think I the that mentioned, million mentioned. at, QX look benefit to and Michael was that year, that think a the that's year about I the at year-over-year where are driver so were the beginning a prices if million $X to

of I half the can risk in year. So of aggregating the effectively $XX levelizing think it the of million you terms and as back think then

say first the about half would running I So that of million downside $XX XXXX. it's into of
