The company expects adjusted earnings of $1.10 to $1.12 a share, versus analysts’ average forecast of $1.18 a share.
Eaton, a power management company which posts July 29, also said charges excluded from adjusted earnings will reduce its operating earnings by $0.70 per share.
The charges stem from legal settlements with Meritor Inc., Triumph Group Inc., Eaton said.
