Our growth accelerated in the quarter, customers remain optimistic, particularly around large projects, and we continue to demonstrate strong cost discipline. Our one-stop-shop value proposition, coupled with our technology, service levels, and unwavering focus on safety and customer productivity, continues to differentiate us in the industry. Looking ahead, I am very pleased that we are again raising our guidance for the year, supported by the tailwinds we see across large projects, customer backlogs, and the momentum witnessed year-to-date. We believe the healthy growth we've seen will continue and that we will deliver what our shareholders expect of us: profitable growth, strong free cash flow and compelling returns."
