In the news release issued on January 26, 2012, the Registrant reaffirmed its expectations for fiscal year 2012 diluted earnings per share in the range of $2.74 to $2.84. Key assumptions supporting the 2012 diluted earnings per share range are: flat to modest revenue growth; operating margin growth in the high single-digit to low-double digit basis points range; and free cash flow in the range of $700 million to $800 million, which includes capital expenditures in the $150 million range. Subject to market conditions, the Registrant expects to repurchase approximately $400 million of its common shares in fiscal year 2012.
