Earnings, on a GAAP basis, grew 12% to $0.61 per share in the recently ended quarter. Non-GAAP EPS grew 4% to $0.63, which included the impact from a 9-point currency headwind. Organic revenue grew 6%.

For comparable net revenues, the company expects 4% currency headwind in 2019 based on the current rates and including the impact of hedged positions compared to the previously guided range of 3-4%. 2019 non-GAAP EPS growth was maintained in the previously projected range of -1% to 1% growth versus $2.08 in 2018.
