Avon Sticks by 2002 Earnings Forecast

Avon Products Inc., the world’s largest direct seller of cosmetics, on Tuesday said it was on track to reach its 2002 earnings target of $2.30 a share before one-time items. In a press release, the company said its strategies include accelerating sales growth through new products and strengthening its brand image with increased investment in consumer marketing activities.

Analysts’ average earnings estimate is $2.31 a share, according to market research firm Thomson First Call. On Sept. 3, Avon stood by its $2.30 forecast, saying strength in the United States and Europe would offset weakness in Argentina.
