Dear Fellow Shareholders,
This past year was defined by change   intentional and transformative.
Against a backdrop of dynamic economic conditions and evolving customer
expectations, we made deliberate strategic decisions that reshaped our
portfolio and sharpened our focus. While periods of change can bring
uncertainty, they also create opportunity. We leaned into that opportunity
with discipline and conviction, strengthening our core businesses and
advancing key strategic initiatives. As a result, we have positioned our
company for sustainable, long-term value creation.
