Coca-Cola at a crossroads with new CEO in charge
As new CEO James Quincey takes over from the outgoing Muhtar Kent, he faces challenges that have turned Buffett's aphorism into a painful reminder of better days.
By Russell Grantham Atlanta Journal-Constitution
May 7, 2017
ATLANTA – Legendary investor Warren Buffett once was quoted as saying Coca-Cola was such a strong company that a ham sandwich could run it.
As new CEO James Quincey takes over from the outgoing Muhtar Kent, he faces challenges that have turned Buffett’s aphorism into a painful reminder of better days.
The Atlanta company is still hugely profitable, but increasingly under pressure. Soda sales stalled, and its core Coke brand slipped in the U.S. market as people cut back on sweet, fattening drinks in recent years. The beverage market is more fragmented, with new choices constantly materializing. Coke is pushing to broaden its lineup with non-fizzy brands, but its lifeblood remains soda.
Behind its perpetually sunny marketing facade, Coke in recent years has spent enormous corporate energy rearranging internally and retooling operations to deal with new marketplace realities.
Onto the stage now steps Quincey, a British-born, 21-year Coke veteran who is expected to bring new ideas and vitality.
His tenure didn’t start quietly. On Tuesday, in what was essentially his first act as CEO, Quincey used an earnings call with financial analysts to announce job cuts that will hit the headquarters staff in Atlanta hard.
The company plans to eliminate 1,200 jobs later this year from a pool of 5,500 corporate positions. The cuts are part of a plan to save about $800 million through 2019.
Quincey said the cuts are “clearly a painful process,” but necessary. He said job decisions will be made “as fairly as possible,” but also with “speed.”
“People don’t want this to linger on,” he said in an interview.
Quincey said the plan is to use about half of the savings to speed investment in new products and marketing, and to restore Coke’s revenue and profit growth to 4 to 6 percent per year.
“There’s an acceleration we’d like to see,” Quincey said. “I don’t think we’re broken, but I don’t think we’re where we need to be.”
While soda sales are an obvious sore spot, they aren’t Coke’s only issue. Assessing the company’s fortunes from the outside has been complicated in recent years by an overhaul of bottling operations.
In 2010 Coke bought North American bottling operations from partner Coca-Cola Enterprises. It did the same with hundreds of bottlers around the world. Coke for a time took control of the operations, significantly enlarging the company. Now it’s spinning them back out to new partners.
Coke’s revenue has slipped for the past four years — from $48 billion in 2012 to $41.9 billion last year — in part because of the accordion effect of the bottling overhaul.
The 130-year-old company’s star has also faded a bit in other ways.
In 2007, Coca-Cola was the most valuable brand in the world, acc ...

Unveiling the Secrets How Does Generative AI Work.pdfSam H
At its core, generative artificial intelligence relies on the concept of generative models, which serve as engines that churn out entirely new data resembling their training data. It is like a sculptor who has studied so many forms found in nature and then uses this knowledge to create sculptures from his imagination that have never been seen before anywhere else. If taken to cyberspace, gans work almost the same way.

1.3% in the 12 months
to July, following a
1.5% gain in June.
Higher prices for the
purchase of passenger
vehicles, food

18. What is an HS/TARIFF CODE
The classification of products is based on the Harmonized System (HS) developed and maintained by
the World Customs Organization (WCO). The HS is structured upon a six-digit nomenclature and the
first six digits can be broken down into three parts. The following provides a description with an
example for dried papayas:
Code Product Description
08 EDIBLE FRUIT AND NUTS; PEEL OF CITRUS FRUIT OR MELONS
0813 Fruit, dried, other than that of headings 0801 to 0806; mixtures of nuts or dried fruits of
this chapter

22. Contract Law
A contract is an agreement that the law will
enforce. In Canada, contract law is mostly
“judge made”. None of the provinces except
Quebec have fully codified their contract law
into legislation. Instead, it derives from
English common law and continues to evolve
incrementally in judicial decisions.

23. Validity of the Contract
A contract may be validly created but could be
considered invalid or unenforceable. The most
common grounds for an invalid contract are:
•Fraud
•Duress
•Gross unfairness
•Undue influence
•Illegality
•Incapacity of the parties
