Luxottica Group SpA, the owner of Oakley and Sunglass Hut, plans to confirm its fiscal 2008 guidance during a conference call with investors this week. The company previously forecast earnings of $1.29 to $1.32 per share for the full year at constant exchange rates.
The purpose of Thursday's conference, Luxottica said, is to help investors better understand the company following its $2 billion acquisition of sunglasses maker Oakley Inc. last June. The Milan-based company said it will also provide broad guidance for the second quarter, the results of which it will report on July 31.
