Gross margin rose to 33.1% from 32.1% as pricing, productivity and a $25 million refinement of customer program estimates more than offset volume declines, tariffs and inflation. Operating income increased to $34 million from $21 million, while net interest expense climbed to $84 million as the weighted average interest rate on debt rose to 6.9%.
Operating cash flow was an outflow of $233 million, reflecting seasonal working capital needs and higher inventories ahead of expected Q2 demand.
