Net income for the three months ended March 31 fell to $33.5 million, or 16 cents per share, from $34.7 million, or 17 cents per share in the year-earlier quarter.

Analysts polled by Thomson Financial expected, on average, earnings per share of 12 cents.

Net interest expense climbed 19 percent to $60 million.

Revenue increased 18 percent to $749.4 million from $632.5 million. Analysts expected revenue of $731.8 million.

Sales rose in the company's North American physical, international physical and worldwide digital business segments, and benefited from the weaker dollar.
