Xerox Warns 2nd-Quarter Earnings Per Share to Miss
Targets
By Courtney Schlisserman

Stamford, Connecticut, June 16 (Bloomberg) -- Xerox Corp., whose chief
executive was ousted last month after a failed reorganization, warned it won't
meet second-quarter earnings forecasts because of a shortfall in high-end
printing and publishing products sales.

The world's biggest copier maker said earnings likely will be in line with the
first-quarter level, when the company reported profit from operations of 28 cents a
share. Xerox was expected to earn 42 cents a share in the second quarter, the
average estimate of analysts polled by First Call/Thomson Financial.

In April, Xerox said first-quarter profit fell 41 percent because a sales force
reorganization begun last year cut productivity and increased employee turnover.
Less than a month later, CEO Richard Thoman was ousted after little more than
a year.

Xerox shares fell 5/16 to 25 5/16 yesterday and have dropped 57 percent in the
past 12 months. They fell 4.10 euros ($3.92) to 22.00 euros in German trading.
