AFLAC’s Outlook

I wanted to pass this along from AFLAC‘s ($AFL) earnings call:

Lastly, let me comment and reiterate some of the statements that Dan’s already made. We have reaffirmed our objective for 2014 in the 2% to 5% increase in operating earnings per diluted share excluding the impact of the yen. This year, we estimate that 1 yen move on the average annual exchange rate will equal approximately $0.03 to $0.0325 per diluted share.

Assuming the yen dollar exchange rate remains at the 2013 full year average rate of 97.54, we would then expect 2014 objective of a 2% to 5% growth to be in the range of $6.31 per diluted share to $6.49 per diluted share.
