What management said
And John said it, but I think it's worth saying again, we end up running 1 facility instead of 2. We've got more capabilities, a lower cost footprint, and it's serving high-value customers with our lowest carbon footprint of any facility.
Yes. Well, yes, by the end of the year, we'll be over $200 million run rate on cost synergies. So we're going to realize in the P&L $190 million this year. And so we'll be very close to our original $250 million target run rate by the end of this year, but we're not stopping. We think we're going to capture another $100-plus million. And then we won't stop, right? I mean, we're going to keep looking for opportunity.
What analysts pressed on
Analysts expressed concerns regarding the impact of geopolitical tensions and weather-related uncertainties on supply chains and market stability. There was also questioning around the sustainability of current margins amid potential market fluctuations.
