By Snap-on business unit in 4Q23:

• Repair Systems & Information Group sales of nearly $457 million increased from $450.8 million year-over-year, with organic sales up 1.6%. The organic gain includes higher activity with OEM dealerships and increased diagnostics and repair information product sales to independent repair shop owners.
