Selwyn JoffeChairman, President, and CEO

Okay. Thank you, Gary. I appreciate everyone joining us today. As stated in our earnings release issued this morning, we are still on target to meet our expectations for fiscal 2027, notwithstanding anticipated headwinds we and the industry experienced during the fiscal first quarter. Our confidence is bolstered by numerous new sales commitments, business developments, and opportunities phasing in throughout fiscal 2027, some of which are being enhanced by the changing competitive landscape. Regarding the latter, let me start with a brief discussion of our recently announced Centric Parts brake brands acquisition, which we expect to relaunch by the current fiscal year-end. We're excited about the strategic growth opportunities that we expect from the introduction of our new original Centric brake brands product lines.

Selwyn JoffeChairman, President, and CEO

Preliminary customer feedback indicates pent-up demand and confidence in our ability to offer a quality product with strong consumer brand recognition and the benefit of an industry-leading team to reestablish market position. At the heart of Centric success were two enduring strengths. Uniformly consistent, excellent consumer satisfaction with the brand, and best-in-class catalog accuracy. Installers have consistently praised the brake pads, not to mention all the other brake-related products, as being industry-leading. We are particularly excited to have the product with the original brake pad formulations. These strengths will be powerfully amplified by MPA's proven manufacturing, engineering, cataloging, and related capabilities. We are excited to bring these customers the original magic sauce formulation they loved, reunited with their recognized brand. Together, these attributes have established a deep history and foundation of customer confidence, built on the consistent delivery of the highest quality brake products.
