Management Comments

Gene Hall

Contract Value growth accelerated again. Revenues, Adjusted EBITDA excluding divested operation, Adjusted EPS, and free cash flow were ahead of expectations. We repurchased $547 million of stock in the quarter, as our capital allocation continues to create value for our shareholders. In addition, we increased our full year Adjusted EBITDA excluding divested operation, Adjusted EPS, and free cash flow guidance even with the stronger dollar.
