Maumee, Ohio-The Andersons Inc. said June 26 that it expects its full-year earnings per share to exceed previous guidance. The full-year 2008 guidance will be within the range of $4.40 and $4.80 per diluted share, up from the previous estimate of $3.65 to $4.00 per diluted share. The increase is primarily due to improved performance of the Plant Nutrient Group. The company’s earnings per diluted share for 2007 were $3.75, which set a company record. “Our team has performed tremendously so far this year, providing excellent service to our customers in a very challenging environment,” says CEO Mike Anderson. “We are off to a great start in the first half of the year, however we are cognizant that weather and other factors impacting the commodities markets may affect our second-half results.”
