At the time, Symantec expected its GAAP revenue to fall 1% to 3% for the full year. Non-GAAP EPS was expected to come in between $1.06 to $1.10, which would have represented 3% to 7% growth. Symantec expects the Blue Coat acquisition to generate $150 million in run-rate synergies to complement its cost savings plan, which could together boost non-GAAP earnings in fiscal 2018 to $1.70 to $1.80. That would be much higher than the average analyst estimate of $1.39, which hasn't been updated to include Blue Coat's earnings.
