The outlook for the third quarter is a sales decline in a range of 15 percent to 20 percent, and adjusted earnings per share in a range of $0.13 to $0.19. The third quarter outlook includes an adverse foreign exchange impact of 1 percent to 2 percent on sales and ($0.01) impact on adjusted EPS.

Given our financial strength and our experienced management team, I am confident in our ability to emerge stronger in the post-COVID world," Elisman concluded.
