This press release adjusts the Non-GAAP operating income outlook from that issued earlier today in a press release titled, "Imation Corp. Files 10-Q with Revised Q3 Earnings and Full Year Outlook." The impact of the charge reversal discussed below was incorrectly noted as impacting Non-GAAP operating income. The Non-GAAP operating income outlook is unchanged from that issued October 25, 2007. The corrected release follows: OAKDALE, Minn., Nov. 12 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Imation Corp. filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission its quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2007. Operating income for the quarter was $16.3 million, which was $3.8 million higher than the results the company reported on October 25th. Diluted earnings per share also increased by $0.06 to $0.24. The changes resulted from reversal of a charge incurred in Q2 2007 related to a terminated employment agreement covering anticipated stock based compensation and medical costs for the company's former Chairman and CEO, who had been on long term disability. The former executive passed away on November 5th prior to the filing of the Form 10-Q, which necessitated adjustment to previously reported results. 2007 Business Outlook The adjustments in the third quarter results noted above increased the Company's full year outlook for operating income and earnings per share, but did not change the fourth quarter outlook previously communicated. The following statements are based on our current outlook for Q4 and fiscal 2007 and include the anticipated impact from integration of the recently acquired TDK Recording Media and Memcorp businesses. The 2007 outlook is subject to change based on the final allocation of intangible assets associated with the acquired businesses, and is subject to the risks and uncertainties described below. Where noted below, the outlook has changed from the outlook issued October 25, 2007. -- Revenue for 2007 is targeted between $2.00 billion and $2.05 billion, representing growth of approximately 25 percent to 30 percent over 2006. As a result, revenue in Q4 would range between $640 million and $690 million. -- Full year 2007 operating income on a GAAP basis is targeted between $55 million and $60 million including restructuring and other charges of approximately $26 million. This outlook is changed from the previous outlook of operating income between $51 million and $56 million which included restructuring and other charges of approximately $30 million. On a non-GAAP basis, excluding restructuring and other charges, operating income for the year is targeted between $81 million to $86 million. GAAP operating income for the fourth quarter is estimated between $17.5 million and $22.5 million, including restructuring charges of approximately $5.5 million. -- Diluted earnings per share on a GAAP basis for full year 2007 is targeted between $0.92 and $1.02, which includes the negative impact of $0.45 from restructuring and other charges. This is changed from the previous outlook of diluted earnings per share of between $0.86 and $0.96 which included the negative impact of $0.51 from restructuring and other charges. On a non-GAAP basis excluding the impact of restructuring and other charges, diluted earnings per share for the full year is targeted between $1.37 to $1.47. Diluted earnings per share on a GAAP basis for Q4 is targeted between $0.28 and $0.38, which includes the negative impact of approximately $0.09 from restructuring and other charges. -- Capital spending for 2007 is targeted to be approximately $15 million to $18 million. -- The tax rate for 2007 is anticipated in a range of 37 percent to 38 percent. -- Depreciation and amortization expense for 2007 is targeted between $45 million and $47 million.
