Executive summary

• Net sales for Q2 2026 were $1.67 billion, down 2% year-over-year, with a 4.5% decline in global sales volumes, partially offset by higher prices and favorable currency effects.

• The Fit to Win program delivered $65 million in gross benefits ($50 million net) in Q2 and over $400 million cumulatively, supporting cost improvements despite ongoing headwinds.

• Leadership remains confident in the long-term strategy, recalibrating timing for targets and implementing leadership changes and cross-functional integration in Europe.
