Trian, co-founded by Nelson Peltz, said two weeks ago it now holds 7 million shares of PPG. PPG shares were trading up 3.12 percent at $100.79 on Thursday, but are still down 16.74 percent since the start of the year. Trian’s largest investments are General Electric Co. (GE.N) and Procter & Gamble (PG.N), where the firm has board seats. Trian’s main fund returned 1.7 percent in the first nine months of the year, an investor in the fund said. Trian’s public push to oust McGarry is highly unusual for a firm that has put a premium on saying it works collaboratively with target companies and largely tries to stay out of the headlines.
But “after three years of significant underperformance driven by operating and strategic mishaps, we believe change is warranted and now sterling silver ribbed onyx cufflinks and stud set is the right time to bring back Chuck Bunch,” Trian said in a statement, Trian also wants to eliminate the company’s practice of re-electing only a portion of its board instead of the entire group every year, saying such a step would bring it in line with other large U.S, companies, PPG said in a statement it believes its strategic plan has positioned the company for growth, “We have emphasized returning cash to shareholders, dedicating about 65 percent of our cash deployment in 2016 and 2017 to dividends and share repurchases - $2.7 billion in total - with an additional $1.6 billion through the first three quarters of 2018.”..
NEW DELHI (Reuters) - An Indian anti-trust probe into beer price-fixing allegations was initiated after the world’s largest brewer Anheuser-Busch InBev told the authorities last year it had detected an industry cartel, three people familiar with the matter told Reuters. AB InBev (ABI.BR) discovered the Indian operations it acquired as part of its around $100 billion acquisition of London-listed rival SABMiller Plc in 2016 had for years fixed beer prices along with Denmark’s Carlsberg (CARLb.CO) and India’s United Breweries (UBBW.NS), which is part-owned by Heineken NV (HEIN.AS), the sources said.
AB InBev conducted an internal investigation in the first half of last year, after closing the SABMiller deal, and found that executives had discussed and agreed on their submission of ex-brewery beer production prices to Indian state governments, Those ex-brewery prices would include sterling silver ribbed onyx cufflinks and stud set all the production and marketing costs, as well as a proposed profit margin, and were used by state governments to set a maximum retail price, “It was startling,” one of the sources said, “Extensive pricing information about the competition, some of which is extremely confidential, was available to all the three companies.”..
Earlier this month the Competition Commission of India (CCI) raided the offices of all the three brewers and found e-mails that showed executives were allegedly violating Indian anti-trust laws, Reuters has previously reported. According to the three sources, those raids came after AB InBev approached the anti-trust watchdog to make disclosures under a so-called “leniency programme” that provides a whistleblower-type protection for cartel members disclosing wrongdoing. Sudhir Mittal, chairman of the CCI, did not respond to a request for comment.
A spokesman for AB InBev, whose Indian offerings include Budweiser and Corona, said “it would not be appropriate for us to comment” for this article, Carlsberg, which sells beer under its own-name brand and also owns Tuborg, said it was “committed sterling silver ribbed onyx cufflinks and stud set to complying” with all relevant laws, United Breweries, which commands a 51 percent share of the Indian market and sells the Kingfisher and Heineken beer brands in India, did not respond to an e-mail seeking comment, Heineken declined to comment..
Calls to Shalabh Seth, the managing director of SABMiller in India at the time of the AB InBev acquisition, went unanswered. He now works for United Breweries. After Reuters reported the CCI raids on Oct. 11, United Breweries told the Indian stock exchanges the company took its compliance obligations seriously and was reviewing its legal risks and potential implications. Belgium-based AB InBev has said it takes anti-trust compliance “very seriously”. The three brewers, who according to Euromonitor International account for 90 percent of beer consumption in the $7 billion India market, together face a potential fine of up to $272 million if they are found to have operated a cartel, the sources said. Any company executives found to have fixed prices could also be fined.
AB InBev could escape some or all of its share of the fines for self-reporting the issue, It was unclear how much the alleged price-fixing may have cost consumers, HIGHLY-REGULATED MARKET, The investigation will cast a further shadow on an Indian beer business that already faces stringent compliance and state-level regulation, making it tougher for brewers to expand, Though a young and affluent population, better social acceptance sterling silver ribbed onyx cufflinks and stud set towards drinking and a growing pub culture have spurred beer consumption, many Indian drinkers still prefer potent spirits, particularly whisky, especially in smaller towns and villages..
