Motorola expects to meet or beat 2Q guidance

NEW YORK—Motorola said it will meet or beat its guidance for the second quarter of a loss of 4 cents per share.

Motorola President and Chief Operating Officer Edward Breen made the announcement at a Bear Stearns conference one day after Nokia said it would miss sales expectations for the quarter but meet earnings-per-share estimates of 17 to 19 cents.

Breen also said Motorola was on track to return to profitability in the third quarter and show a profit of at least 4 cents per share for the full year.

Shares of Motorola were up 4.7 percent, trading at $15.13, following the comments.
