Operator : [Audio Gap] China withdrew from buying crude and typical size at the beginning of the Mideast conflict. The reduced consumption has led to stabilized prices in crude and China has also suspended exporting products. If they reverse these decisions, products exported from China will certainly impact the products market. But [indiscernible] the coal mine to watch it be the Singapore crack spreads, they tend to react first with China increasing exports. Otherwise, we see markets being constructive for the next several quarters, potentially into 2028. These events have had similar, if not more dire effects on the lube-based oil markets as much as 20% of the world's based oil supply for lubes being off-line, which brings me to our lubes business. It has been an important and meaningful contributor to the success of Sinclair.

The business will continue to deliver base oil solutions through new strategic commercial agreements with 2 premier global base oil manufacturers, complemented by continued access to products from our Tulsa refinery. Finally, as a potential separate organization under Matt Joyce's leadership, an independent business -- an independent lubes business will operate in a capital-light business model for greater financial flexibility and stronger, more consistent free cash flow while leveraging its core strength in technology globally recognized brands and extensive channels to market. We are early in the separation process, and we'll provide additional information as appropriate. Finally, it would be natural to ask about our company's plans for [indiscernible] excess cash. We are mindful of our past indications for …
