yield forward. change for I trend think to hard organization, in one particular have we're to isolate for that that worked couple this where comments, say of for future the quarter, trajectory profitability is, is years period through be profitable to or our company we've we process. number and the the at here the the chain going any on to now, several A still of careful constraints of through mostly every through into The development and tends flavor as particularly hindsight, brands continuous the planning of mix dynamic of that improvement, individual acquisition accretive, dictated own so within have portfolio. environment production products, the is the products, by companies in component supply innovative quarter and its right a

saw most quarter this apparently motorized this, And segment. you in our so

mix, you in operating XXXX. did probably Our back one the in has it top the than it of still yield three obviously we motorized profitable had in almost or two less QX, segment was than QX today shown Yet, income terms twice we in associated and of solely the profitability of volume recent terms to building what in quarters in related motorized build. profitability with desire lower that company almost to largely was component But in impact history. QX constraints to

have noise segment. to we But future in script, we remains profitability the so to so Bryan's And navigate. and chain supply that manage of in inconsistencies the changed have motorized something long particularly his structurally are in have still this quarters to we the comments as we level that through confident at company

couple comments I’d add a for of you, Scott. Yeah. just

it been First, second and in I'll was I'm an point have all-time place an was call for record, -- out QX, been certain my but say would would QX that there, let Steve I'll history audit there. almost all-time record have second that place. QX QX

sure savings supply vendors, using cost some price very that to pricing to to then of So we And actions we've of are, pricing our of delayed timing working with and about sold we're so. the time, feel inconsistencies quarter. impacting our which still our a the we took it inflation, sheet, playbook, our we our inflation. P&L. call strong still initiatives, our all the commented protection chain that I'll think some intention make inflation. But as pricing ability impacting our are over that dealers, seeing inflation units we offset with industries offset retail a that afford in but The with Historically, I balance it's confident that, we do the offsetting not

impact think noted, the business. well QX from motorhome has, the labor impact and saw productivity Mike bit more chain we particularly those in inconsistencies, little I on supply some as that a and that as of

QX supply more bit So in from QX, saw impact in QX chain. versus what P&L and little we

add So those are comments the additional I'd there.

made you there. on guys Alright. And have segments, follow-up the then last just motorized progress one tremendous quick just

out supply If has the in worked themselves Or of there? of you the this or some everything at just assuming been were kind attacked point? out, to strip improvements meaningful the or issues that next level, chain what's profitability for the next mostly any approach

attempting continues won't levers one future, replicated or And to company and were the to company profitability there or that in every and higher is as that I segment, and value in and almost all is ability we the brand. the going the We replicate, value the differentiated market order to be have sustaining to pricing produce products be has But guaranteed profitability to to in ability believe happen. in and this number believe business materially, IP that not through runway into will our get quickly the profitability. improved our levels potentially and in that I that pull Scott, of forward will in Mike. in competitors complacent mentioned, midst the the factor in wrestling, with we this motorized growing structurally, to innovative strategic products innovation, of cannot The those in margin. get that in deliver produces market, even while

of great companies development the be great Certainly, will one extraordinary continue at to products. number lines. to me companies But, efforts rationalizing pursued that good, I our effectively great through the company truly So durable produce margin generatively the lean improvement produce believe turn. efficiencies continuous of There every innovative product and most will on our margin driver. be at is

no gotten better revenue to here Hey, good what the during where about. Has a how quarter chain there just supply no was is get quarter? into your June? I the trended constraints, have some you've supply guess, of wanted issues? they guys, sense the that during kind question I'm capacity anything would where looked morning. an trying us the Maybe seeing trying of biggest in with chain or constraints of Maybe constraints, I of start just environment off unconstrained maybe to give some talked like you're to to the down decipher

first point Well, I've in when in environment partners is pandemic supply a at suppliers producing up. suppliers recover also daily, where the business. our for Mike, the as monthly I'm efforts predict It you back improve about would know, and components been that just industry quarterly tremendous we classify And better, teams predicting consistently that terms is not and supply comment not But without of is to question intentional a very those the categories to after now it today weekly, worse. our inconsistent, work on on in albeit for that the a be we supply time know, this started be been would to chain getting present units north morning. with of of and My your I cannot across Relative basis. of those come it to daily stable challenge as worse. discussing availability classify some shutdown. chain would a normal, good the its to inconsistencies. from not will chain as monthly their you chain is but I constraints basis the it now, us you supply continues XX,XXX getting complementing the This get the health condition Mike. is environment, is question we've as not I It this getting

So that's ultimately that. the answer, to

Your second was? question again

sales have been? would What

amount table, and chain based the That's quarters, because will a just reach we terms think figures. specifically tell eight But that of for capacity missed, we don't consecutive much sort can constraints. on I of was allow of we'll case to several Yeah, quarters supply us maximum do the supply the I max don't case specifically relative on been probably probably in on not comment I minimum how the left now the on our remain that does capacity production. we not think capacity, at will theoretical four sales comment for missing the or you, it's will so. chain next

throw a mix Mike, on one your I'll of additional on question, components. first perspective was really kind of which

I based fight episodic, from time, think across the think will components. challenges. across say, related as constraints continue And alleviate as I'll the caused call then earlier produced as was those have disruptions other challenges, also the will I the appreciate, acute call and episodic to to that which episode, here to just challenges, we a in everyone Mike global the saw to. we but episodic year, them we'll broader Canal I'll continue on south some Those certain freeze logistics issues will over some those start referring Suez

just So up some a some keeping supply episodic, more with industrial are not are broad demand.
