While we were able to continue generating revenue growth, this was offset by ongoing weakness in the Electronics business and lower automotive build rates. Additionally, earnings were impacted by a strengthening in the U.S. dollar, employee benefit expenses, rising raw material costs and the impact of the cash repatriation from Europe. -David Rayburn

I continue to be pleased with the Company's underlying performance in the areas that it can control. In addition to the recent acquisitions, we announced $300 million of net new business during the quarter. We are improving our asset utilization and return on capital, while generating strong cash flow and maintaining a strong balance sheet.

Given the current outlook for industry volumes and cost challenges we are taking a more cautious position on our fiscal 2006 earnings. We now expect that earnings per share from continuing operations will be flat to slightly down compared with $1.79 from continuing operations reported in fiscal 2005.
