suggest if would that? be continued discussing downstream users believe So where there sequentially, guidance, amongst contraction any inventory spend possibly some year-on-year some on you the weakness. volume it based issues to seeing you time you're Can demand distorting

Jim Hoffman

mentioned We're not Yes. really downward than lot of a we other whole semiconductor. what seeing

I are seasonal busy, busy into, markets and basically We our other type. sell kind we guidance listen we kind mills are The customers. to the they're about. Mills what talk to said positive. historic our downward Like the customers of are of talking before, is

Karla Lewis

we that buying. especially delayed may have pressure, carbon on pricing with little side, of and think the Some the people

a quarter more typical, for on guidance little end. the as the second Our it at look as conservative is we

could that pushed but not put or guidance. that things some of So our that some a if into positive did or into quarter there the weather is if second issues, stabilization, because provide other uplift, we pricing more got

Martin Englert

for you you half? on Thanks then over working And maybe any just meaningful the detail the anticipate in the quickly the could capital expectations release of your Okay. there. for all year, remaining if back if quarters touch

Karla Lewis

think second see year shipping patterns and generally, and quarters. profits flow the of that seasonal first positive the cash the on after from strong making and we then a release our of had operations half, our kind the mean, in we're of the do we The increase of each that reflective in quarter I and positive in the Yes, days in capital of follows working of business. is number fact the atypical, funding we operations which first have used cash half in transactional we very

pleased were So, we very with that.

demand a a inventories where from We good our they are the that bring current bit our shape. outlook think looking bit. levels with down do to reduce right we we could potentially But are in now. from They're those

with or in generate consistent quarters. probably, cash shipping the in reduced would expect relatively fourth in which we half So back the working and to then in days, prior in second the third as results flows levels volumes of capital the year quarter and lower years, higher
