and we have included a reconciliation to EPS on the last page
of the attached schedules.

Olivier Filliol, President and
Chief Executive Officer, stated, "Local currency sales growth in
the quarter excluding Food Retail, was 6%, with excellent growth in
the Americas and solid growth in Europe and Asia/Rest of World. Despite continued
challenges from the impact of adverse currency and tariff costs, we
achieved strong margin improvement and earnings growth in the
quarter."

Outlook
Based on today's assessment of market conditions, management
anticipates that local currency sales growth in the fourth quarter
2019 will be approximately 3%, and Adjusted EPS is forecasted to be
in the range of $7.66 to $7.71, an increase of 12% to 13%.
For the full year 2019, local currency sales growth is expected
to be approximately 5%. This sales growth is expected to
result in Adjusted EPS in the range of $22.65 to $22.70,
an increase of 11% to 12%.
The Company said that based on its assessment of market
conditions today, management anticipates local currency sales
growth in 2020 will be approximately 4%. This sales growth is
expected to result in Adjusted EPS in the range of $24.85 to $25.10. Using the mid-point of 2019
guidance, this would result in Adjusted EPS growth of 10% to
11%.
While the Company has provided an outlook for local currency
sales growth and Adjusted EPS, it has not provided an outlook for
reported sales growth or EPS as it would require an estimate of
currency exchange fluctuations and non-recurring items, which are
not yet known. The Company noted in making its outlook that
uncertainty remains in the macroeconomic environment and market
conditions are subject to change.
Conclusion
Filliol concluded, "We continue to benefit from our growth
initiatives including investments in our field force, Spinnaker
sales and marketing programs and new product launches. With
the exception of Food Retail, demand in our markets is solid and we
have generated good growth. As we look to 2020, we remain
confident in the factors we can control – namely executing on our
growth initiatives to continue to gain market share – but
acknowledge greater uncertainty in the macroeconomic
environment. We also believe that our margin and productivity
initiatives will continue to yield tangible results. Based on
market conditions today, we believe we can deliver strong results
in 2019 and 2020."

results today (Thursday, November 7)
