  Second-quarter earnings before special items met analysts' average forecast 
of 33 cents per share, as compiled by Reuters Estimates. Citrix forecast 
third-quarter earnings before items of 33 cents to 34 cents per share, compared 
with analysts' forecast of 34 cents per share.
  For the full year, Citrix forecast earning per share before items of $1.36 to 
$1.39, compared with the analysts' estimate of $1.38.
