We'll get past this. But it's just the beginning.

The changes we have been making to our automotive operations for the past two years are beginning to pay off. We have developed a very strong product line-up around the world, particularly in the fastest growing segments.

Shelbyville is definitely beginning to prove themselves out of that district with two wins over Tullahoma the past two years. They're definitely contending for championships in that district now.

The malaise of the past few years is finally beginning to dissipate, and while we see an industry-wide return to historic levels of growth, we anticipate that growth will be uneven across various geographic regions and product types.
