While the full benefits of these actions will be realized over time, we are already seeing positive early momentum in our order intake and pipeline opportunities. First quarter revenue growth stepped up, led by Mobility, while performance in our Water and Energy solutions remained strong. Margins were supported by our cost-out program and rightsizing actions.
