DANAHER REAFFIRMS 2015 GUIDANCE, INITIATES 2016 OUTLOOK
WASHINGTON — Ahead of an investor and analyst meeting to be held in New York, Danaher Corporation (NYSE: DHR) (the “Company”) reaffirmed the Company’s adjusted diluted net earnings per share guidance of $1.25 to $1.29 for the fourth quarter 2015.
The Company anticipates that 2016 adjusted diluted net earnings per share will be in the range of $4.80 to $4.95 which assumes core revenue growth between 2% and 3%.
Thomas P Joyce, Jr., President and Chief Executive Officer, stated, “This has been a remarkable year for Danaher. Year-to-date, we have completed the largest acquisition in our history with Pall, announced our 2016 separation into two independent, publicly traded companies with Fortive, and driven solid core revenue growth, operating margin expansion and free cash flow in a difficult global environment.”
Joyce continued, “Looking ahead, we remain mindful of the current economic landscape. Although we have seen some order softness in our more industrial-oriented businesses, our team continues to execute well and is generating solid margin performance. With the Danaher Business System as our driving force, we look forward to delivering earnings outperformance and long-term shareholder value for many years to come.”
Danaher will host a live video webcast of its investor and analyst meeting today, December 16, 2015, beginning at 11:00 a.m. ET and concluding at approximately 2:30 p.m. The video webcast will be available on the Investors section of Danaher’s website, www.danaher.com, under Events & Presentations. A replay of the webcast will be available shortly after the conclusion of the presentation.
