康宁的持续成功源于我们在我们在2015年推出的战略和资本分配框架的持续执行。该框架阐明了康宁的领导力优先事项。我们的计划是利用我们的财务实力，并将投资组合聚集在未来几年内提供价值。

Since introducing the Framework, Corning has delivered on our commitments and advanced key programs across our market-access platforms. As we look ahead, we are confident in our ability to achieve the goals of our Framework and continue doing what Corning does best ⎯ transforming industries, enhancing people’s lives, and delivering disruptive innovations that create value for decades. Our confidence is based not only on our outstanding 2017 results, but also on Corning’s 166-year track record.

Corning has continued to make significant progress on our goals to return value to shareholders, as well as to invest in growth and sustained leadership. Three core objectives of the Framework outline how we plan to leverage our financial strength:

• We expect to generate and deploy $26 billion – $30 billion from 2016 through 2019.
• 我们正在投资100亿美元来通过研究和开发，资本支出和战略收购的结合来增长和扩展我们的领导力。
• We are also returning more than $12.5 billion to our shareholders through share repurchases and annual dividend increases of at least 10 percent.

Corning is more than halfway through the four-year Strategy and Capital Allocation Framework. Our progress on all dimensions of the Framework has been excellent, and we expect to deliver on all of our goals.

该框架将我们的投资组合侧重于一套强化功能，具有强大的互连。我们是三个核心技术，四个制造和工程平台以及五个市场访问平台的世界上最畅创的世界。康宁指向我们的资源80％或更多的资源，从而从这些能力中的至少两个套装绘制。我们认为，这种方法会增加我们成功的可能性，降低创新的成本，为我们的竞争对手造成更高的障碍，最终让我们的客户欣赏。

“The core of what we do is invent, make, and sell,” said Wendell P. Weeks, chairman and chief executive officer. “We create value by inventing category-defining products, developing scalable manufacturing platforms, and building strong, trust-based relationships with customers who are leaders in their industries.”
