For the quarter the company expects effective tax rate to be approximately 19%. The company expects revenue to approach $2.7 billion with organic revenue growth of 1%. In terms the bottom line results, the company expects to see a nice sequential improvement in the third quarter operating results across all 3 businesses, contributing $0.07 of earnings on a quarter sequential basis. It expects this to be partly offset by an increase in corporate expense and a higher tax rate in the third quarter, which when combined will cost about $0.03 per share. In total, these items are expected to result in a net increase of about $0.04 per share on a quarter-sequential basis. The company expects earnings per share before special items to be in the range of $0.45 to $0.47. For the full year, the company continues to expect adjusted free cash flow to be around 90% of net income. Based on this conversion rate, the company expects its adjusted free cash flow for the year to be approximately $800 million with the bulk of that coming in the second half of the year. This free cash flow phasing is consistent with prior years and the normal seasonality of its business. The company expects revenue for the full year to be in the range of $10.6 billion to $10.7 billion. From the time it originally gave its full year EPS guidance of $1.75 to $1.85, the company now has a $0.05 headwind, primarily related to changes in foreign currency exchange rates and share count. Despite these headwinds and the uncertainty in the economic environment, the company is increasing the low end of its guidance. The company now expects full year earnings per share before special items to be in the range of $1.80 to $1.85, which represents earnings per share increase of 12% to 15% over fiscal 2012 normalized base of $1.60. During the year 2013, the company expects to return about $300 million to shareholders in dividends and the remaining will be used to fund acquisitions or repurchase shares.
