RE:RE:RE:RE:Shorts Have 5 Trading Sessions to Coverthat is not a change in guidance, it is a change in the FX translated results. Guidance should be benchmarked against what they set a year ago as the Sales at that time based on that FX rate.
the market, as it has done, will adjust for FX which frankly could change any minute and no one agrees upon anyway. RBC is using $1.20 - Scotia are $1.33 - use what you want but keep the Sales guidance unchanged unless you think that there is an overall non-translated reduction.
CIBC even referenced this issue in their release :
His 2016 earnings-per-share estimate moved to $5.78 from $6.29, compared with the Street at $6.14 and guidance of $6.29 to $6.77. Mr. Gowd expects Concordia to reduce its 2016 guidance upon release of the quarterly results "to reflect the new FX reality unless guidance remains based on constant currency assumptions." Mr. Gowd continues to rate Concordia "sector perform." wordless wrote: Lower guidance is not in the cards? Please explain?
When sales of $600milUSD come from the UK and the GBP is down 20%. What do you think you I'll happen to the guidance in the second have of the year? Sales guidance will be revised down. Face it.
EBITDA impact will be much smaller as the costs associated with those UK sales are demo jger in GBP and other European currencies. But EBITDA guidance will also likely be lowered for second half of year but to a much lesser stent than sales guidance.
Debt will be down from unrealized translation gains from ththe GBP demonized debt so thei debt guidance will likely change as well. But this one will be a positive revision.
