Notes:
fn1.--Reported data are in percent and period changes are in percentage points.
fn2.--Undefined.
fn3.--The quantity for U.S. producers' U.S. shipments reflects the quantity of quartz surface products sold in the United States from domestically manufactured slab; The value
for U.S. producers' U.S. shipments reflects the value of quartz surface products sold in the United States from domestically manufactured slab plus the additional value added
to imported slabs by U.S. fabricators. The average unit values presented for U.S. producers' U.S. shipments excludes the value added to imported quartz surface products. In
measuring consumption and market share this methodology avoids reclassifying and/or double counting merchandise already reported once as an import.
