    Putting the guidance into context, in FY2017, the second-half NPAT was 66% of first-half NPAT.
    This year - using the mid-point of the $1.55bn to $1.60bn NPAT guidance - they are effectively saying that second-half NPAT will be just 45% of first-half NPAT.

    And, put another way, this guidance implies an 8% decline in JH2018 NPAT vs JH2017.

    Which suggests:

    1. there is something skewiff with the business,
    2. there is going to be the mother of ramp-up sin R&D expenditure, or
    3. the guidance is very conservative

    I have a decidedly firm view of which one of those possibilities will turn out to be the case.
