“With strong third quarter results and the current outlook for foreign exchange rates and commodity prices, we have increased our full-year earnings guidance to $6.65 billion from $6.6 billion, and have previously forecast Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA to Looking into 2023, we believe the company is already well positioned to achieve high single-digit organic earnings growth. Combining 3% M&A rollover revenue with the impact of current commodity prices and foreign exchange rates, we expect to point to at least 12% revenue growth when we release our 2023 outlook next quarter. On the profitability side, we believe the widening gap between price and cost inflation will allow us to significantly expand our adjusted EBITDA margin by 100 basis points, which is a late teens adjustment. A strong M&A pipeline and organic growth initiatives create opportunities in front of us.”
