IHS Inc. (NYSE: IHS) is updating its financial guidance for the year ending November 30, 2013 as follows:

All-in revenue in a range of $1.80 to $1.82 billion;
All-in Adjusted EBITDA in a range of $540 to $560 million; and
Adjusted EPS in a range of $4.75 to $5.00 per diluted share.

“We are excited about the value we are creating through the combination of IHS and R.L. Polk, and the $0.40-$0.50 of incremental Adjusted EPS we expect it to add to IHS in 2014. We also continue to see solid organic growth for the remainder of 2013, despite the lower global corporate-spend environment and the uncertainty that remains macro-economically, and we remain focused on our path to build from current levels in 2014 and beyond,” said Scott Key, IHS president and chief executive officer.
