Tailwinds
- Expects organic growth rate will exceed reported growth rate by a mid to high single digit percentage point range.
- The low end of our 2020 guidance range assumes that we see no improvement to our business, relative to what we saw in March and April, for the remainder of the year.
- The midpoint and high-end of our range reflect marginal improvements to the business, consistent with the trends we’ve seen during April, with variation based on how quickly those trends materialize.
Headwinds
- The Company’s second quarter and 2020 financial outlook is based on a number of assumptions that are subject to change and many of which are outside the Company’s control, including the impact of COVID-19 on our financial performance and customer demand.
- If actual results vary from these assumptions, the Company’s expectations may change.
- There can be no assurance that the Company will achieve these results.
