Dear Erica McLaughlin:

       Please respond to this letter within ten business days by providing the

Form 10-K for the Year Ended September 30, 2025
Managment's Discussion and Analysis
Results of Operations
Definition of Terms and Non-GAAP Financial Measures, page 30

1.     As noted on page 31, your non-GAAP measure, total segment EBIT, excludes
       unallocated corporate overhead expenses, such as certain corporate
salaries and
       headquarters expenses, plus costs related to special projects and
initiatives. As such, this
       non-GAAP measure appears to exclude normal, recurring, cash operating
expenses and
       may therefore not comply with Rule 100(b) of Regulation G and Item 10(e)
of
       Regulation S-K. With specific reference to Question 100.01 of the
Division of
       Corporation Finance   s Compliance & Disclosure Interpretations on Non-
       GAAP Financial Measures, please confirm you will revise future filings,
including
       earnings releases filed under Form 8-K, to eliminate this measure.

       We remind you that the company and its management are responsible for
the accuracy
and adequacy of their disclosures, notwithstanding any review, comments, action
or absence of

have questions regarding comments on the financial statements and related
matters.

                                                         Sincerely,
