Motorola Solutions raised its earnings guidance for the year as it continues to see strong demand for its safety and security solutions.
The Chicago-based company now expects adjusted earnings per share of $15.09 to $15.15, up from its prior guidance of between $14.88 to $14.98.
Motorola backed its prior forecast for revenue of about $11.65 billion for the year.
Chief Executive Greg Brown said the company raised its guidance due to continued robust demand for its safety and security solutions as well as a strong start for its acquisition of Silvus Technologies, which closed in August.
For the third quarter, Motorola posted a profit of $562 million, or $3.33 a share, compared with $562 million, or $3.29 a share, a year earlier.
Adjusted earnings per share were $4.06, ahead of estimates of $3.85 a share according to analysts polled by FactSet.
Revenue rose to $3.01 billion compared with $2.79 billion a year ago. Analysts expected $2.99 billion.
Sales in the company's software and services segment climbed 11%, while products and system integration sales edged up 6%.
