Although first quarter revenues are expected to fall three percent below initial expectations, Hologic expects non-GAAP adjusted EPS for the first quarter of fiscal 2009 to meet or exceed initial expectations and be in a range of $0.30 to $0.31, as a result of a number of cost reduction initiatives the Company implemented in the first quarter. This compares to prior Company guidance for non-GAAP adjusted EPS issued on November 11, 2008 of $0.29 to $0.30. Non-GAAP adjusted EPS excludes approximately $50 million of amortization of intangibles which on an after-tax basis (at an effective tax rate of 34%) would reduce GAAP EPS by $0.13.
