OT as in On Topic

Cisco Q1 earnings included 2.6 cents from an IRS tax settlement, so the tax rate was about 16%.

The Q2 tax rate is expected to be 24%.

The AH move was due to meeting expectations by a tax settlement IMO.

Other points from the cc:

$1.5 b cash for the qtr was from exercises of stock options (equal to half the qtr buyback).

A $1 "increase" in the price of the stock will increase the fully diluted share count by 15 m shares.
