Bill Zollars Given Quotations

Given that third quarter was revised upward significantly, I am skeptical that growth was so low and I will wait until we have the final figures to judge.

Despite good revenue growth in all areas of our company, the quarter did not come in where we had planned. Given the first quarter, we have taken aggressive steps to improve our financial performance going forward. The economy still looks healthy, our brands remain strong and our synergy programs are on track.
