In context

tantially over the past quarter, we now see a tailwind of revenue of $550 million to $650 million in fiscal '26. This is over a $0.5 billion positive increase versus 3 months ago. In Q2, FX is currently $50 million to $100 million tailwind based on the recent rates. Moving down the P&L, we're continuing to drive pricing discipline and to deliver savings on our COGS efficiency programs. These will be offset in the near term by continued business mix primarily in CAS and Diabetes. Regarding tariffs, you will recall we outlined 2 scenarios when we gave our annual guidance last quarter. Given where we are in the year, we can take the worst case $350 million scenario off the table for this year. And the $200 million scenario has modestly improved, driven by our execution on mitigation efforts. As a result, tariffs are now expected to be approximately $185 million for fiscal 2026. We also remain committed to increase investment in our current and future growth drivers, resulting in increased R&D and sales and marketing spend. At the same time, we are confident in our ability to drive leverage with our G&A expenses. Accordingly, there's no change in our expectation for fiscal 2026 operating profit to grow materially faster than revenue. Given our Q1 results, we're raising our underlying fiscal 2026 EPS growth expectation, which excludes the impact of tariffs to 4.5% versus the prior 4%. FX is now a flat to 1% benefit to fiscal '26 EPS. Including the impact of tariffs, we're now guiding EPS in the range of $5.60 to $5.66, a raise from our prior range of $5.50 to $5.60. For Q2, we would expect EPS of $1.30 to $1.32, which includes an approximate 1% benefit from foreig
