Earnings per ADS

Earnings per ADS up 94% to $5.25

Bottom line improvements made through effective financial management and higher cash flow generation led to greater shareholder returns on investments. The strong bottom line performance also helped to improve other key metrics.

For example, earnings per ADS rose to $5.25 from $2.70 in 2006, while Return on Invested Capital (ROIC) increased to 45.3% from 34.9% in the prior year. Combined with the strong top line growth in the business, the Company is confident in the fulfillment of its key strategic objective of creating exceptional shareholder value.
