For the year, the company expects revenue in the range of $2.970 billion to $3.050 billion, including approximately $0.045 billion negative impact of current foreign exchange rates compared with 2014 rates, increasing from prior year $2.856 billion; Adjusted EBITDA of $375 million to $395 million, increasing from prior year $357 million; Adjusted effective tax rate to approximate 23%; diluted shares outstanding to approximate 106 million; adjusted EPS of $1.65 to $1.75, increasing from prior year $1.60. The Company expects normal seasonal impacts on revenue, EBITDA and EPS in the first quarter and second quarter of 2015 with sequential improvement in quarterly results beginning in the third quarter. In terms of earnings, it anticipates recognizing 52% to 53% of full year adjusted EBITDA and 54% to 55% of full year adjusted EPS during the second half of 2015. This reflects the expected impact of ramp-up costs during the first half, ahead of anticipated seasonal demand later in the year.
