On February 9, 2025, a fire damaged a portion of our Saegertown, Pennsylvania facility, causing a pause in production. Some production and operations were re-established within days of the event and global resources have been deployed to restore capacity to minimize customer disruption. Full capacity is expected to be restored during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2025. There was no material impact as a result of this disruption during the third quarter of fiscal 2025 and none are expected during future periods.
