Domestically we anticipate another ordsprog

Domestically, we anticipate another quarter of significant turnaround activity. Capacity utilization is expected to be in the mid-90% range with turnaround costs of approximately $100 million, before tax, in the second quarter.

Compared to the mid-point of previous guidance, revenues at the Chartered level are now expected to be up approximately $8 million. Consistent with higher revenues, our fourth-quarter net profit is now expected to be approximately $6 million higher than the mid-point of the range previously guided. Our guidance for utilization remains unchanged.

Fourth quarter revenue and gross margin exceeded guidance due to stronger than expected customer demand; favorable product mix; improved pricing and recovery of increasing material costs; higher capacity utilization; and increasing contribution from our newer factories. As a result, gross margin rose to 24.2% from 16.4% in the third quarter.

The turnaround looks like it's kind of going, but going slowly. It's not a complete, across-the-board turnaround at this point yet. But they made progress in the fourth quarter and the results showed it.

It's really a turnaround quarter. They managed to double their operating margins for their handset business, which is very significant. That's what really depressed their stock the previous quarter. They also improved margins in semiconductors.

The shortfall in sales combined with over $20 million in incremental marketing expenses appear to be the main factors contributing to our expected loss. In addition, we expect Iomega's inventory levels to be up over fourth quarter, which will increase our cash utilization this quarter.

As a result, we added significant capacity and fixed costs to meet expected market demand that has not materialized. We now expect sales this year in the range of $600 million to $700 million for this business, with significantly lower sales of optical amplifiers and other photonic components.

Our strategy is sound, and the Mercedes-Benz group's turnaround came right on schedule in the second quarter. In addition, the turnaround at Chrysler Group is beginning to pick up momentum.

We remain cautious in our outlook for the remainder of the fourth quarter. We expect to achieve significant increases in passenger volumes but also anticipate that yields in Q4 will fall reflecting our large capacity growth in this weakest winter quarter.

We expect to achieve significant increases in passenger volumes but also anticipate that yields in the fourth quarter will fall, reflecting our large capacity growth in this weakest winter quarter as well as the impact of Easter falling in April.

Xerox's performance in the first quarter is evidence of significant cash and operational improvements as well as the effectiveness of our turnaround strategy,

We were optimistic and expecting some turnaround in the third quarter with strength in the fourth quarter. But what's happening is that the signs are so poor, we're not confident we're going to see that now.

Economic activity in the first quarter clearly picked up from the previous quarter and the trend that was reached should more or less hold in the second quarter. However, that means that the expected acceleration did not occur.

Orders for the first quarter of fiscal 2006 were $23.8 million and are expected to approach $30.0 million in the second quarter. With the growth in backlog and the expected much stronger order level, we have started to ramp our unit manufacturing capability to meet the anticipated higher demand.
