He followed this bullish commentary saying, "Not only do we believe that recent mishaps are now largely in the rearview mirror, but we were encouraged to hear management's confidence that North America will return to growth in [the fiscal first quarter] and then accelerate throughout the rest of [fiscal year 2017]."
