Guidance and Outlook
The Company provides guidance on a non-GAAP basis as we cannot predict certain elements which are included in reported GAAP results, including the impact of foreign exchange translation and commodity mark-to-market net impacts.
For 2023, the Company expects:
• A 6 percent increase in organic revenue;
• An 8 percent increase in core constant currency EPS;
• A core annual effective tax rate of 20 percent; and
• Total cash returns to shareholders of approximately $7.7 billion, comprised of dividends of $6.7 billion and share repurchases of $1.0 billion.
In addition, the Company expects an approximate 2-percentage-point foreign exchange translation headwind to impact reported net revenue and core EPS growth based on current market consensus
rates. This assumption and the guidance above imply 2023 core EPS of $7.20, a 6 percent increase compared to 2022 core EPS of $6.79.
