Co says "We are delighted to begin 2009 with continued strong top-line momentum with organic sales increasing 8.0%. Also, our gross margin, operating margin and net profit as a percent to sales increased during the quarter, despite difficult economic conditions worldwide. Our cost-cutting and efficiency programs as well as increased pricing more than offset the impact during the quarter of higher raw and packaging material costs worldwide and the strengthening dollar.... Looking ahead, we have a very full new product pipeline for the balance of the year, which should contribute to positive unit volume growth in the second quarter and for the full year. We expect our strong organic sales growth to continue, driven by both positive volume and higher pricing.... The benefits of recently easing commodity and oil prices have begun to flow through and should build as the year goes on. This, coupled with the higher pricing and our ongoing aggressive savings programs, should offset the expected impact of the stronger dollar on raw and packaging material costs, indicating that gross profit margin should increase as the year progresses and be up at least at the high end of our targeted range of 75 to 125 basis points for the full year 2009. Overall, we are comfortable with external profit expectations for both the second quarter and the year." (Briefing.com note: Q2 consensus is $1.05/3.769 bln and FY09 consensus is $4.21/15.079 bln)

We remain focused on managing what is in our control, namely reducing costs and capital spending, delivering on our action plan to de-leverage our balance sheet, and smoothly and successfully integrating Rohm and Haas into the new Dow.
