- “Q1 is a strong quarter for them always during the year, but we would expect as we look into Q2, some sequential moderation.”
- “And we estimate the year-over-year impact to adjusted EBITDA this quarter was approximately $7 million which is more than we anticipated a quarter ago.”
- “We expect Q2 to remain a difficult comparison because of that prior year quarter benefited from the A2L-related volumes.”
