He was also instrumental in the formulation of our M&A strategy and subsequent transactions, all of which positioned the Company for continued growth and value creation. On behalf of the entire Board of Directors and our 13,000 employees, we thank Pete for his many contributions and wish him all the best in his well-deserved retirement. We are pleased to be able to benefit from his ongoing leadership as we conduct our CFO search and execute a seamless transition next year."

I look forward to spending more time with my wife and our expanding family as we begin the next chapter of our lives.
