Greetings, and welcome to the Terex Second Quarter 2022 Results Conference Call. [Operator Instructions]. As a reminder, this conference is being recorded. It is now my pleasure to introduce your host, Jon Paterson, Vice President and Treasurer. Please go ahead.

Good morning, and welcome to the Terex Second Quarter 2022 Earnings Conference Call. A copy of the press release and presentation slides are posted on our Investor Relations website at investors.terex.com. In addition, the replay and slide presentation will be available on our website. I'm joined by John Garrison, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer; and Julie Beck, Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer. Their prepared remarks will be followed by Q&A. Please turn to Slide 2 of the presentation, which reflects our safe harbor statement. Today's conference call contains forward-looking statements, which are subject to risks that could cause actual results to be materially different from those expressed or implied. In addition, we will be discussing non-GAAP information that we believe is useful in evaluating the company's operating performance. Reconciliations for these non-GAAP measures can be found in the conference call materials. Please turn to Slide 3, and I'll turn it over to John Garrison.

Thank you, Jon, and good morning. I'd like to welcome everyone to our earnings call and appreciate your interest in Terex. I'd like to begin by thanking all Terex team members for their efforts in this challenging global operating environment, with inflationary pressures, production disruptions and COVID impacts. Terex team members have worked diligently to improve our performance for our customers, dealers and shareholders. We are proud of all Terex team members for keeping themselves and others safe. I would like to thank our team members around the world for their continued commitment to our Zero Harm safety culture and Terex Way Values. Safety remains the top priority of the company, driven by Think Safe, Work Safe, Home Safe. Please turn to Slide 4 to review our strong financial results. The team delivered solid financial performance for the quarter, which Julie will cover later in her remarks. As a result of our resilient team members' strong execution in the first half of the year and our strong backlog, we are raising full year EPS outlook to $3.80 to $4.20. Please turn to Slide 5. Terex participates in attractive end markets that are supported by favorable trends. And we have strong brands and the capacity to support long-term growth. Our MP segment is a diversified and consistent high-performing portfolio of businesses. MP's brands have leading market positions with excellent end market product and geographic diversification. Importantly, these businesses are less cyclical in nature. The overall business continues to benefit from strong equipment utilization rates and dealers looking to replenish their inventory and rental fleet. MP's global demand remains strong, demonstrated by backlog of $1.1 billion, up 32% year-over-year, with an additional $100 million scheduled to be delivered beyond 12 months. Environmental and recycling solutions are driving demand for our Ecotec and…

Thanks, John, and good morning, everyone. Let's take a look at our second quarter financial performance found on Slide 12. We demonstrated solid execution in a dynamic environment, including significant supply chain challenges and continued inflation with reported sales of $1.1 billion, up 4% year-over-year, primarily due to increased prices. Foreign currency translation negatively impacted sales by $51 million or approximately 5% in the quarter as the euro and British pound weakened against the dollar. Gross margins declined by 250 basis points in the quarter as pricing actions partially offset cost increases. The year-over-year gross margin decline was in our AWP business, however, margins in this business did improve sequentially. MP was able to effectively overcome cost increases with pricing actions. Although the inflationary environment continues, SG&A was flat to prior year. SG&A percent of sales at 10.1% decreased by 40 basis points from the prior year as business investment was offset by continued strict expense management and favorable foreign exchange translation. Operating margin of 9.6% was down 220 basis points compared to the prior year and up 220 basis points sequentially from increased pricing and disciplined cost control. We are pleased with achieving a 39% incremental margin improvement from the first quarter. Although price/cost dynamics have improved sequentially from the first quarter, operating profit in the second quarter of $104 million decreased $19 million from the prior year as price realization was offset by continued cost increases, manufacturing inefficiencies caused by supply chain disruptions, and the negative impact of changes in foreign exchange rates. Current quarter operating profit includes $1 million of charges in corporate and other associated with the litigation settlement on a former product line. Interest and other expense was approximately $21 million lower than Q2 of 2021, as we recorded a $26 million loss on early…

Thanks, Julie. Turning to Slide 17 to conclude my prepared remarks. Terex is well positioned and has a strong foundation to deliver long-term value for all stakeholders, because we have great businesses, strong brands, and strong market positions upon which we can grow the company. We will continue to invest in new products and manufacturing capacity, along with strategic inorganic growth. We'll continue to execute our disciplined capital allocation strategy, and we have demonstrated resiliency and adaptability in an increasingly challenging environment. I'm confident this will result in Terex being an even stronger company. And with that, let me turn it back to Jon.

Thanks, John. As a reminder, during the question-and-answer session, we ask you to limit your questions to 1 and a follow-up to ensure we answer as many questions as possible this morning. With that, I would like to open it up for questions. Operator?

[Operator Instructions]. Our first question comes from Stephen Volkmann from Jefferies.

Going around maybe slightly left field, but I'm curious if you can just comment around sort of the ramp-up in Monterrey, your plans for that, sort of how that progresses? And I guess what I'm really trying to think about is what's the margin impact of that over the next medium term as that ramps up?

Thanks for the question, Stephen. As we indicated, and Julie said, Monterrey, Mexico is one of our major capital investments for the year and important to us. I think the team is doing a really good job in a challenging environment. The project is on time and in budget. We completed the telehandler move from our Oklahoma City facility. So we stopped the telehandler production in Oklahoma City and moved that to Mexico, Monterrey, into the temporary facility. So the primary facility and permanent facility is under construction and doing well. At the same time, we're moving other product lines in Mexico as well. Those are products that were originally scheduled to be manufactured in China, but we moved into Mexico and some of the products in the Redmond facility, where labor is tight, we're moving into the Mexico facility. And again, that is on time and on schedule. Commensurate with that, we're also developing our Mexico supply chain, and we think that's also going to provide a competitive advantage for us as we go forward. What we've said there, Steve, in terms of the margin improvement of Mexico is, over the next couple of years, '24, '25 time frame, when it's complete and the transition and movement of product lines in there, we anticipate about a 200 basis point overall margin improvement in our Genie business as a result of the complete utilization, if you will, of the Monterrey facility. So again, we think this is going to help improve our global cost competitiveness, position us to be affected in the North American market. And again, the team is doing a really good job in a challenging environment, not just challenging to manufacture things, it's challenging to build things and the projects on schedule, on budget. And the other thing we're excited about, Steve, is our ability to attract incredible talent, both managerial talent and direct labor talent in Monterrey, Mexico area. So project is going really well. And like I say, over the next several years, we anticipate it's going to add 200 basis points of margin improvement in the Genie business.

Super. I appreciate it. And then my follow-on, just on hospital inventory, John, can you just sort of comment on the trends that you're seeing there? If it's changed in terms of what is missing or anything? And then how you see that progressing toward the end of the year, and I'll pass it on.

Thanks, Steve. So yes, we're still talking about hospital inventory. And we, like many manufacturing companies, have continued to experience disruption. In terms of the components, I don't think it's a word unique in the sense that we're dealing with electronic components, doing a lot of work there. Engines driven by electronic components are creating challenges, and then hydraulic systems are really the 3 principal areas that we're dealing with. The team is aggressively managing it. We've got an escalation process up to and including me. So I spend a lot of time during the week dealing with supply chain issues. What we saw, Steve, is that we saw the inventory cost, we saw hospital inventories climb. Really, in the first week of June, they were up to about over $100 million. The team did a good job over the last 3 weeks of the quarter, brought it down into that $60 million, $62 million range. So it's up about $12 million quarter-over-quarter, but it did peak at over $100 million during the quarter. So that describes the disruption that the teams are dealing with and what we're having to overcome to deliver for our customers. And again, I want to congratulate our teams. It's an incredibly challenging environment, but they're demonstrating resiliency and adaptability and finding ways to deliver products for our customers, but we're still experiencing disruption. And in terms of what we're anticipating, Steve, for the rest of the year, if you look at our outlook, we're kind of in that $1.1 billion range of revenue. So we're not assuming any significant improvement in the supply chain over the back half of the year. We are assuming that the hospital inventory comes down a little bit from where we are, help drive some improvement in free cash flow, but we're not assuming that the hospital inventory goes dramatically better than where we are right now as a result of the disruptions we're continuing to see.

Our next question comes from Nicole DeBlase from Deutsche Bank.

Maybe just first starting with -- you guys provided some good color on how you're thinking about the cadence of margins in the back half of the year for both segments, but can you just give us a sense of what you're thinking with respect to the revenue cadence between 3Q and 4Q?

Nicole, so as we think about our operating flows and our revenue, we've been doing consistently with the supply chain. Remember, our sales forecast is a function of supply chain, not as customer demand. So we think about our supply chain being in that 1 -- $1 billion to $1.1 billion is what we've been doing for the last 6 or 7 quarters. So we're forecasting a slight increase in Q3 and Q4, but relatively consistent with what we've done, a slight uptick in Q3 and Q4.

Got it. And then I guess maybe on the MP side, the margins looked really strong during the quarter. Was there anything kind of unique going on or onetime in nature? Just trying to think about how the 2Q performance balances against a step down in margins in the back half.

So overall, for Terex, our operating margins are expected to slightly increase throughout the year. And for Q2, MP had an outstanding second quarter with margins of 16.5%. And their performance -- we've increased the margin outlook for that business from 14.8% to 15.3% for the remainder of the year. We would anticipate relatively balanced margins in the second half of the year with continued year-over-year improvement. The quarter benefited significantly from favorable geographic and product mix. And the second half of the year is expected to be impacted by typical holiday and summer factory shutdown, maybe not as favorable product and regional mix. And then we'll have some increasing investments that we think are important for that business in technology, engineering, R&D, and digital customer solutions as well.

Our next question comes from Stanley Elliott from Stifel.

John, could you just go back and talk a little bit about the Acculon investment? You mentioned 1/3 of the Genie booms, 2/3 of the scissors. How quickly can you accelerate the electric offering within kind of the AWP segment? And then how fast can you take that technology and put into other products that you have?

Right. And you're right, we just announced the investment in Acculon, and we think it really does help them accelerate. And of course, Genie, starting from a position of leadership and electrification within the industry. And Acculon brings 13-plus years of experience at operating at the forefront of battery solutions, not just lithium ion, but advanced battery solutions. And what the investment does for us, it brings that technology and knowledge with our existing knowledge. But it also -- what Acculon does, Stan, is they're also very good at certifying technology. And so that's the competency that's important, because you can have the greatest technology in the world, but if you can't certify it cost effectively and timely, you can't get it into the market. So they're going to help with that. They also bring some artificial intelligence capabilities that we think we're going to be able to use, and some cloud-based technology that we think we're going to be able to use. So we think this will help accelerate our offering in the marketplace. And the good news is, we're starting from a position of strength. And again, we think this will accelerate. And to your second question, as we work with Acculon and our technology centers, we'll also look for how can we utilize that technology in other areas of our business throughout utilities and MP as well. So it's starting with Genie, but very quickly we will leverage that across the portfolio. And then last but not least, it's an investment. So we also captured the benefit of -- as this company grows and expands, we get the service provider that we need, but we also will benefit from the financial reward of this company growing, and we think it's going to have a substantial growth over the coming years.

That's great. And then you mentioned $600 million of kind of MP and AWP revenues or, I guess, looking out beyond 12 months, how do you think about pricing for these longer-dated sorts of delivered items kind of given the volatility that we've seen here in the marketplace recently?

Yes. Thanks. And you're right. We are taking orders. We have backlog that goes into 2023. And again, that's a function of strong customer demand across the portfolio of businesses. If we look at how are we doing in MP, MP's lead times now are significantly longer than our historical averages given the strong backlog that we've had. MP has done a really good job through the course of this time of dynamically adjusting price, especially as we get closer to delivery. So those units that are in 2023 are priced where we anticipate 2023 pricing to be, but we will adjust that pricing as required given the inflationary environment that we have and that we're facing. And if we look at Genie, yes, they've got 2023 backlog. And again, customer demand is strong. It gives us some confidence in the longer-term outlook, based on the replacement cycle. And in Genie, from a pricing standpoint, and we've had -- the team has been executing on the pricing discipline. We implemented price increases in April. And any 2023 orders that we have will have 2023 pricing, and we'll continue to make the adjustments as necessary based on the inflationary pressures that we see. And those conversations are ongoing. And I would say, very similar story in our utilities business. So the good news is, the demand is strong. Our total backlog is up 70%, which gives us some confidence about that future outlook, and we'll continue to address pricing as required given the inflationary pressures that we're seeing.

Our next question comes from David Raso from Evercore ISI.

With your stock in the low 30s, obviously, the stock might fully believe in the $4, but it's definitely not believing you can grow next year. So I'm just trying to think about '23 in the context of -- for example, in AWP, your backlog is over $2.8 billion, if you include backlog beyond 12 months. So I mean, you get 0 orders the rest of the year, 0, and fulfill your revenue guide for this year for AWP and still end the year with a backlog of over $1.6 billion, right? 70% of a full year of sales. So I think what people are going to be curious about for '23, that backlog, can you give us any sense of are you adding any incremental stickiness to those orders? Anything about a more challenging cancellation penalty or anything that we can get comfort that we can believe in that backlog? Because obviously, that backlog alone will tell you -- I mean you can get the next 6 quarters, get orders only half of what you just got in the first half of this year, and you would still grow revenues next year in AWP. So I think it's just about the believability of the backlog what the stock must be questioning at these levels at a minimum. Can you -- look, I know you can't go to the big rental companies if they want to cancel. It's a challenge to say, hey, you've got to take the machine. I get the relationship. But can you help us understand the stickiness, some of the aspects of this backlog we should be comfortable with?

Yes. Thanks, David. And we share your enthusiasm for the backlog and the potential outlook. Obviously, it's too early, David. We're going to learn a lot. It's August. So we're not going to provide 2023 guidance at this time. But you're absolutely right. We have an incredibly strong backlog and we have significant coverage that's going into 2023. And so we are anticipating growth in both segments based on its backlog in 2023, based on the backlog that we have. Now let me be clear, David, we're going to need to see improvement in our supply chain to capitalize and to drive growth as we move into the next year. And if you look specific to the AWP, the market is incredibly strong. The rental companies in North America and Europe, for that matter, are seeing very robust business. They're seeing record levels of utilization. They're seeing very strong rental rates. They're seeing very strong used equipment values. They're being very disciplined in their business, and they're executing incredibly well. They're actually growing their business into other areas. And so the underlying secular rental trends are quite strong. That backlog is in there. And I can tell you, David, every customer conversation I have, it's not about, hey, we're worried about canceling orders. It's about, can you get us the gear sooner and quicker? And so if you look at the replacement cycle and where we are in the AWP Aerial segment, it's been delayed, David, because the industry has struggled to meet the needs of the industry. So you've got the natural replacement cycle. You've got the underlying infrastructure and infrastructure builds. If you just look in North America, there is no money currently being released or spent on the infrastructure bill. That's going to come in 2023 and beyond. And so there's a strong foundation for the rental companies going forward, and they're quite confident in their outlook and that's been relayed to us in terms of their expectations for equipment going forward. And so I think the demand is there. They need the gear. They're going into the cycle with an aging fleet and that creates a strong demand environment and there's scarcity right now because of production challenges. And so I think those things all go to creating a good demand environment for us going forward. You're right, what do we know? What we know is we've got historically high backlogs in that business at this time. And the rental companies are doing well. They're looking at their markets and they're robust about their outlook. And that usually, David, when utilization rates are going up, rental rates are going up, used equipment values are going up, those are all great things for the demand within the Aerial business. So we've got the backlog. Customers are not telling us they're canceling the backlog. All the questions are about, can you get it sooner, because we need it now.

Sure. I mean, look, there's 2 things to do off of that, show some increased features that make it stickier than normal to let investors feel more confident that demand will be there, and/or if everybody's confidence in the backlog is what it is, obviously, the response for capital allocation is more share repurchase, right? So I know you're balancing building the portfolio. But I mean that's the crux of the story of the stock. Do we believe the backlog will be there in '23, right? Because it's obviously suggesting growth for '23. So I appreciate the commentary, though.

Your question on capital allocation, David. We bought back a significant amount of shares in the quarter because we believe that these prices, that that's an incredible IRR. We want to grow the business. We have a bias towards growing the business. But at these share prices, at these IRRs, it's hard not to be active in the market for repurchasing shares.

Our next question comes from Michael Feniger from Bank of America.

Just kind of following up actually on David's question. I mean Materials Processing is now expected to reach a new margin high. That's a new milestone. We saw one of your peers in Europe just acquire screening and crushing business for 10x EBITDA just a few months ago. So John, just where your leverage is right now? Is it below your target? How do we unlock that value in Materials Processing that the market is putting on other companies that -- of your Materials Processing unit? Is it share repurchases? How do we view M&A really going forward in effort to build out Materials Processing? How do you kind of think about that going forward?

Well, thanks for the question, Michael. First of all, MP has clearly demonstrated incredibly strong performance in the cycle. It's highly diversified and consistent and it drives significant margin improvement as we go forward. What do we like about it? And you're absolutely right, it contributes more than 60% of our operating earnings, and it's consistent as we go through time. And so our job is to help the market understand the strength, the diversity, the capabilities of that segment as we go forward. Part of the reason it's been so successful is regional diversification. We're not bound to one region, it is truly a global segment. Second is product and customer diversification around aggregates, lifting, concrete, our handling and environmental business, and then end market diversification. It is construction, yes, but it's waste handling, recycling market. So we serve many markets. We also think from an M&A activity that it's still highly fragmented within the verticals that we compete in. And so you've seen much of our M&A activity, the most recent acquisition of ProAll, is in that space. So near adjacencies where we believe we can build out the MP segment and over time actually create multiple segments if we're successful within the MP space. You're also right that we've got a strong balance sheet. Our debt-to-equity is at 1.5x. We've talked about 2.5x net debt-to-EBITDA through cycle. And so we have the balance sheet. We're going to be disciplined. We've made some acquisitions, and we continue to look in this area, because it is an area that's underappreciated, and it's an area that we've got to do a better job explaining to our investors the power of this segment and the difference in the Terex portfolio as a result of MP being 60% of our operating earnings. And we're going to work hard to get that message out. And when you see our M&A activity, you can expect to see more M&A activity. Again, we'll make technology investments, but you can expect to see more M&A activity in and around the MP space as well because we like the dynamics in that space. And we'd like to build that out, and ultimately, over time, create at least multiple segments within the MP segment.

Thanks for that response. And on the AWP side, obviously, the guidance implies a strong margin in the second half and Q4 potentially 10% or higher. So it's a good starting point, obviously, for next year. I guess just bigger picture, investors always wonder if you can drive cycle-over-cycle margin improvement in AWP. I mean how different is this energy business today from your last peak in 2018?

Great question. Hats off to our Genie team, because they've really been focused on improving the global competitiveness of our Genie business. That team completed a significant restructuring in 2020 that took out over $90 million of cost, significantly improving the profitability, but also improving the resiliency and breakeven point if we were to face a downturn. I spoke about the market activities and the strength that we're seeing in the market. But on the operational excellence initiatives, the team has really done a good job the last couple of years driving pricing discipline and pricing improvement, driving process efficiency and effectiveness, and even driving some cost productivity, what we call flex productivity improvement despite the significant disruption that we've been seeing. We talked about OKC and Mexico. That's going to help. That's different. We're going to continue to leverage China that also is a cost-effective base to export to other regions of the world. Julie mentioned in her comments and the team there has done a fantastic job, aggressively managing SG&A while investing in product development. But the team realizes that we have to be disciplined on our SG&A spend and not allow it to grow as revenue grows and they've done a heck of a job there. And then our strategic sourcing team. It's been tough in the market for strategic sourcing and our purchasing teams. But despite that, they're still out there working to expand our supply base. They're out there working on cost out initiatives. They're working to develop our Mexico supply base. All of that didn't exist back in 2018. Likewise, new products and new product development. The team is doing a really good job of purposeful innovation, bringing things to market that features and benefits, but also are lower cost to manufacturers, so design for manufacturability, design for assembly, VADE work in our product development. So the team is doing a great job there. We're investing in technology and systems in that business that didn't exist. But one for us to be easier to do business with our customers, but also to do the digital thread within our own operations. So we can improve the speed of decision-making and improve the decision making process with systems and processes within the business. So we've got a major initiative underway. And then the last part is our parts and service team in that business. Over the last 3 or 4 years, they have done a wonderful job growing the business, expanding the business, and that is also countercyclical for us as we go forward. So that team is working hard in an incredibly challenging environment. And I think they've done a really good job restructuring that business to ensure it's adaptable and resilient to respond to whatever market conditions that, that team faces. So they've done a heck of a job and a lot of hard work over the last couple of years.

Our next question comes from Tami Zakaria from JPMorgan.

So my first question is -- and I'm sorry if I missed it. So you're expecting 9% pricing for the year and 6% volume. Can you give us some color on what price and volume expectation is by segment for the year?

Tami, in general, we're expecting that -- again, as you said, the 9% increase in pricing overall for the year, 6% volume. Both of the businesses are having increase in prices as we go throughout the year. So each of them have implemented various pricing actions starting back in last year, and they've been adding them throughout the year as we deal with the increase in costs. So both businesses are seeing increased price as we go forward.

So price increases across segments have been similar? Can we assume that?

Yes.

Got it. I have one quick follow-up to what John just mentioned earlier about an inventory influx in June. So when you began the quarter, you were expecting top line to grow only modestly quarter-over-quarter, and you expected that to be driven mostly by the MP segment, but your top line came in well above expectations for both segments, excluding FX. So what really drove that? Was June an exceptionally strong month that drove the upside? Or did you have better-than-expected sales sort of throughout the quarter?

It's good question. Remember, early in the quarter we were dealing with the COVID disruptions and lockdown in China. And so the quarter started off pretty slow as a result of those lockdowns, not just disruption to our existing facilities, but also through the supply chain and the logistics. And so as the lockdowns in China eased and our teams did a great job literally sleeping in the plants to produce products, it's those ease that improved the supply chain. And so that helped to reduce some of that hospital inventory. So I would say we saw an improvement as we went into June as the COVID policies were relaxed in China.

Our next question comes from Seth Weber from Wells Fargo.

Maybe, Julie, another pricing question for you. The implied kind of high single, low double-digit margin for AWP in the back half of the year, does that reflect you're on the positive side of price cost by the end of the year? And can you just give us any indication on AWP, how much is structural pricing versus surcharges?

Yes. So thanks for the question. So overall, Seth, the operating margins are expected to steadily increase throughout the year as price dynamics improve. And for the year, we expect to be price cost neutral. AWP delivered operating margins of 7.7% in the quarter, up sequentially by 180 basis points in the first quarter. And we expect -- this sequential improvement was a result of strong execution and strict expense management and disciplined pricing actions. We anticipate continued sequential improvements in the second half through a disciplined price cost management, and we expect our incremental margin target to be above our target in the second half of the year.

Okay. Is there any flavor for how much of that is structural versus surcharge?

Yes. So the Genie business and AWP, both businesses have taken price increases. So in our utilities, it's been a combination of price increases and surcharges, and the same is true for the Genie business. Both of them have a combination of list increases and surcharges.

Okay. And then maybe just following up on the MP segment and the strength in the margins there. Is there anything with the acquisitions that you've done or investments that you're making that would prevent a 20% to 25% incremental margin for next year as you're thinking about it?

So overall, we're not giving 2023 guidance at this point in time, but we're pleased that MP had 20% incremental margins in Q2 and we expect strong incremental margin performance for the rest of the year. And so this business, we're pleased with the absolute overall profitability, but our overall target for Terex remains at 25% incremental margin.

Our next question comes from Steven Fisher from UBS.

You mentioned before, John, that the key thing for next year is just to be able to deliver your backlog. And I imagine you're going to be doing some of your 2023 planning in the next few months. So I guess, with a clean slate on the year and still maybe 5 months away from the start of the year, can you put better contingency plans in place to kind of better manage supply chain risk for 2023? Like to what extent are you kind of now thinking multiple moves ahead to be able to manage next year a little bit better, if possible?

Yes. Great question. We spent a lot of time on that. And so from the actions into response. First, there our strategic sourcing initiative did help identify multiple suppliers for key commodities. And so that initiative has provided at least a list of suppliers to go to. So even in this environment, we have expanded the supply base and that's helped. Now with that said, it's obviously still highly constrained. The engineering redesigns. The team has done a really good job of redesigning some of the components for what's available. Part of those redesigns are for what's available not just now, but also into the future. And so we think that will help potentially mitigate some of the electronic challenges and microchip challenges that we've had as a team. Continued engagement at senior levels with the key suppliers up to and including at the CEO level. And so those engagements are going to continue. We've been very transparent in terms of what our needs are as we go forward and the relative performance of the key suppliers. Now with that said, I don't want to be totally negative on the supply chain, because they're also highly motivated to deliver for us, so that we can deliver for our customers. So these are challenging times, they're difficult conversations at times, but the supply base is motivated. So we're expanding the supply base, making engineering design changes as we can, and then looking to reshore in some cases. For example, building up the Mexico supply chain over time. We think that's going to provide a greater degree of resiliency for us as we go forward. So it's a multitude of steps across both businesses, AWP and our MP business as we go forward. And then the other piece, I think, that we'll see some improvement on is our utility business has been significantly impacted by chassis and bodies. I think chassis supply, as we move into 2023, we will begin to see some improvement there, because that has adversely impacted that part of our business. So just a couple of things that the teams are doing. We're continuing to do to provide that resiliency that we're going to need to have the opportunity for growth in 2023.

Our last question will come from Jamie Cook from Credit Suisse.

Congratulations on a nice quarter. I guess, just 2 follow-up questions. One, can you just comment on what you saw for order trends in Europe versus the U.S. sort of versus China, and whether the trends continued into July? So I guess that's my first question. And then your assumptions on -- sorry, I'll just put in my other question now, too. Price cost in the back half of the year, I think before you were assuming hot-rolled coil was $1,800 in the first half, I want to say $1,400 in the second half. What your expectations are now or what's embedded in your guide?

Thanks, Jamie. The good news is, it's similar to North America on the Genie side, the multiyear replacement cycle is going to help. So we're actually seeing stable backlog in order rates despite the challenges in Western Europe. Similar story. We've seen backlog increase, sales increase in those markets. Clearly, those are the markets that we're clearly watching. We're watching all the markets, but obviously very focused on what's transpiring in Western Europe. But right now, I think the word I would use is stable in terms of demand in bookings and outlook standpoint, but there's actually growing backlog.

And Jamie, our second half HRC for the U.S. North America is $1,050.

We are all out of time for questions today. I would like to turn the call back over to John Garrison for closing remarks.

Thank you, operator. And please, if you have any additional questions, please follow up with Julie or Jon. Again, please stay safe and healthy, and thank you for your continued interest in Terex. Operator, please disconnect the call.

Ladies and gentlemen, this concludes today's conference call. You may now disconnect.
