12. FY08 Outlook
Expect to achieve right about the mid-point of non-GAAP EPS guidance of
$3.75 – $3.85, excluding $0.01 - $0.02 dilutive impact of Enturia.
In Q4, continued Supply Chain Pharma (HSCS-P) challenges positively
balanced with HSCS-M, CTS and MPT performance:
Challenges from repricings and controlled substance anti-diversion
HSCS – P efforts. Slower pharma market growth.
Turnaround continues with solid performance.
HSCS – M
Continued strong performance. Q4 is tough compare due to exceptional
CTS Q4 FY07 performance.
Growth driven by VIASYS and core business. Enturia acquisition will be
MPT
1-2¢ dilutive in Q4, accretive in FY2009.
