Business Outlook
"Year-to-date, organic sales growth of 3.3% reflects solid execution of our growth initiatives and flat to modest share gain across our markets, against the backdrop of a slowly improving economic environment. As we enter the second half of the year, our focus remains on our growth initiatives which include synergistic sales and global accounts. Based on our backlog and pipeline activity, and supported by our customers' optimism and the macro-economic indicators we track, we remain optimistic that end markets will improve in the second half of 2017," commented Bob Eck. "Reflecting our current sales and backlog trends, we expect third quarter 2017 organic sales growth in the 2.0 - 4.0% range. For the full year 2017 we have increased the midpoint of our outlook range by 50 basis points, and now expect full year organic sales growth in the 3.0 - 5.0% range."
