Margin Expansion: The legacy business achieved a 30% margin for the fourth consecutive quarter, up 40 basis points YoY, with improvements driven by effective pricing strategies and a favorable price-to-cost spread. However, there was a 30 basis point drag from the expiration of alternative fuel tax credits, indicating exposure to regulatory changes.
