Share Repurchase Authorization

The Company has a $3.0 billion stock repurchase program of which $2.9 billion has been utilized. The Company announced that the Board of Directors authorized an additional $1.5 billion to the share repurchase program. Any amount remaining under the existing program will be incorporated into the new authorization.  Filliol commented, “The additional authorization allows us to continue the share repurchase program which has provided strong returns for our shareholders over many years.  We are confident in our future growth prospects and our balance sheet and cash flow generation remain very strong.” The Company expects the additional authorization will be utilized over the next several years.  The Company added that the repurchases will be made through open market transactions, and the amount and timing will depend on business and market conditions, stock price, trading restrictions, the level of acquisition activity and other factors. 

Outlook

The Company updated its outlook and noted that forecasting remains challenging. In particular, weak demand in Brazil, Russia and China remains and the timing of a recovery is uncertain. Weak economic activity in those markets may also impact demand in other markets. Foreign exchange rates also represent a headwind and greater volatility in rates may continue.

Based on today’s assessment, management anticipates that local currency sales growth in the fourth quarter 2015 will be approximately 2% and Adjusted EPS is forecasted to be in the range of $4.58 to $4.63, an increase of 8% to 9%.

For the full year 2015, local currency sales growth is expected to be approximately 3% and Adjusted EPS in the range of $12.85 to $12.90, an increase of approximately 10%. This compares to previous guidance of Adjusted EPS of $12.75 to $12.90.

The Company said that based on its assessment of market conditions today, management anticipates local currency sales growth in 2016 will be in the range of 3% to 4%. This sales growth is expected to result in Adjusted EPS in the range of $14.10 to $14.30, an increase of 9% to 11%.

Adjusted EPS excludes purchased intangible amortization, discrete tax items, restructuring charges and other one-time items. While the Company has provided an outlook for Adjusted EPS, it has not provided an outlook for EPS as it would require an estimate of non-recurring items, which are not yet known.

Conclusion

Filliol concluded, “We remain cautious on China, Brazil and Russia as market conditions are challenging and a recovery is not yet visible. These countries represent less than 20% of our total sales and our focus for those markets is to protect our operating margins and ensure our resources are targeted to long-term growth opportunities. Our business in the developed world and in other emerging markets is performing well. We are capitalizing on our strong product pipeline, best-in-class sales and marketing programs and our investment in additional field resources. Our margin enhancement and productivity initiatives are well on track and allow us to make these investments despite weak demand in the previously-mentioned countries and adverse foreign exchange rates.”
