Progressive thinking company with opportunities for advancement. It is a company in great position for a very bright future. Come 2Q10 there are some positive signs that the business trends it experienced in 1Q will continue.

Unemployment rates remain stubbornly high, access to credit remains difficult, and there seems to be a disconnect between the business levels we are achieving and economic reports from around the world.

As such, remainder of 2010, it will remain cautious and will need to keep its costs under very tight control.

I believe that 2010 has the potential to be a good year for ADI where we reap the benefits of the actions that we have taken and the faith that we have all demonstrated in ADI.
