How to check this claim

Look at: Q4 adjusted EPS as a percentage of second-half (Q3+Q4) adjusted EPS total, compared to Q4 revenue as a percentage of second-half revenue total

It came true if: Q4 share of H2 adjusted EPS exceeds Q4 share of H2 revenue (approximately 52%) by roughly 2 percentage points, i.e., approximately 54% (53%-55%)

Where: Company quarterly earnings releases (Q3 and Q4 2022 income statements / adjusted EPS disclosures)

In context

60 million for the year. We’re assuming an adjusted income tax rate of 13.2% in 2022, slightly higher than the prior guidance. We continue to assume net capital expenditures of approximately $2.5 billion to $2.7 billion and free cash flow of approximately $7 billion. Our guidance still assumes $2.5 billion of capital deployment, which is a $2 billion of share buybacks to be completed in January and $475 million of capital returned to shareholders through dividends. And we continue to assume the full year average diluted share count will be between 394 million and 395 million shares. And finally, I wanted to touch on spacing of the P&L to help you with your modeling. When I think about the revenue dollars in Q3 and Q4, we expect Q4 to contribute just under 52% of the second half total. And looking at adjusted EPS on that same basis, we expect the second half total to be weighted a couple of percentage points more to Q4 than the revenue. To conclude, we delivered another excellent quarter and in a great position to achieve our 2022 goals. With that, I’ll turn the call back over to Raf. Rafael Tejada: Thank you, Stephen. Operator, we’re ready for Q&A. Operator: [Operator Instructions] The first question comes from the line of Jack Meehan with Nephron Research. You may proceed. Jack Meehan: Thank you. Good morning. Marc Casper: Hi, Jack. Good morning. Jack Meehan: Good morning. So versus the Analyst Day at the end of May, a lot has transpired on the macro environment. We see this morning, GDP officially declined again for 2Q. It would be great to hear just your latest thoughts on macro sensitivity for Thermo Fisher. And if you’ll humor me as we sit here in July, just any thoughts on positioning for 2023, how that might fit
