We exited 2011 with positive momentum,
and we are well positioned for margin
expansion and earnings growth in the
coming year. In 2012, we will execute
strong actions to continue to improve
operating margins through our capacity
and cost-reduction initiatives, ongoing
productivity programs, improved product
price and mix, and by accelerating our
new higher-margin product innovation
to the marketplace. These efforts will
provide opportunities for growth in 2012
and throughout our second century
of operation.
