Forward Guidance

The Company now expects to deliver 8 percent organic revenue growth for fiscal year 2022. Consistent with its previous guidance for 2022, the Company continues to expect an 8 percent increase in core constant currency EPS, a core annual effective tax rate of 20 percent; and total cash returns to shareholders of approximately $7.7 billion, comprised of dividends of $6.2 billion and share repurchases of $1.5 billion. In addition, the Company now expects a 2-percentage-point foreign exchange translation headwind to impact reported net revenue and core EPS growth based on current market consensus rates. This assumption and the guidance above now imply 2022 core EPS of $6.63, a 6 percent increase compared to 2021 core EPS of $6.26.
