One of my favorites is Toll Brothers (TOL), which styles itself "America's Luxury Home Builder." Toll Brothers is now operating in 20 states, selling homes that go for an average of $606,000. It was absolutely hammered in the industry's collapse. Sales fell from $6.1 billion in 2006 to $1.5 billion in 2011, while a profit of $4.73 per share in 2006 turned into a loss of $0.87 per share in 2008 before rebounding--thanks to widespread cost reductions--to a profit of $0.24 share in 2011. | not-forward | www.cabotwealth.com | https://www.cabotwealth.com/daily/growth-stocks/is-netflix-a-buy-here |
Peloton is cutting hundreds of jobs in a corporate reorganization of its stalled business as the pandemic-related surge ebbs. The maker of high-end exercise equipment cut approximately 500 jobs, or about 12% of its workforce, Peloton said Thursday. Peloton Interactive Inc. said it's completed the vast majority of a restructuring plan begun in February. That plan included a new chief executive and a smaller store base. "The changes we have made, combined with the performance of the business, are moving us closer to our fiscal year-end goal of break-even cash flow, with a renewed focus on growth," said CEO and President Barry McCarthy. Peloton experienced incredible sales growth during the height of the coronavirus pandemic. The New York-based company's share price multiplied by more than five times in 2020 amid lockdowns that made its bikes and treadmills popular among customers who pay a monthly fee to participate in its interactive workouts. | not-forward | apnews.com | https://apnews.com/article/business-peloton-interactive-inc-61dfbe60d797ce293e104fbe2aa4cfce |

The company is implementing an aggressive cost-cutting and restructuring strategy to optimize its global cost structure. PPG has implemented considerable actions to address adverse business conditions in specific areas and end-use markets. The cost savings generated by restructuring initiatives are likely to have acted as a tailwind for the company in the December quarter. It expects savings of approximately $35 million for full-year 2024. The company also launched a cost-cutting program, which is estimated to result in annualized pre-tax savings of approximately $175 million (including $60 million in 2025) when completely executed. The approach includes structural cost reductions, primarily in Europe and a few other global businesses. PPG Industries effectively addresses raw material cost inflation by implementing effective price increases across its business areas, focusing on margin recovery. | forward | www.zacks.com | https://www.zacks.com/stock/news/2403555/ppg-industries-to-post-q4-earnings-whats-in-the-offing/?art_rec=blog-analyst_blog-up_next-ID01-img-2403555 |

"Locally, this means a small number of managers will be departing the company and we thank them for their service. At the same time, we are continuing to hire in Delaware and across the company." Under the reorganization, Navient created two main business teams – an asset management team and servicing group and an asset recovery business services group – said Jack Remondi, Navient president and CEO during the company's second quarter earnings call. Navient also streamlined layers to improve speed of execution, efficiency and lines of responsibility, Remondi said during the call. Remondi also indicated Navient could be backing out of the private loan market.

The new technologies include cost reductions across a variety of areas, including the vehicle harness, body structure and battery pack, Scaringe says, adding: "These technology changes represent Rivian's continued emphasis on driving greater cost efficiency. They will significantly contribute to driving towards Rivian's long-term gross margin targets." Rivian also will introduce a smaller battery pack and a variety of different trim and build combinations over the course of the next year, the CEO says. "What that does is, it provides us with a broader spread of prices or price choices for consumers on the R1 platform to essentially be able to target both the most price-sensitive customers, as well as customers looking to buy sort of the fully loaded maximum-content vehicle," Scaringe says.

Approximately 100 Discovery positions will be eliminated as a result of these changes." The Big Biotech, which employs 8,000 R&D staffers worldwide, is also renovating labs in New Jersey. Bristol-Myers Squibb's big reorganization fits into the industry's new model for R&D. Large, scattered groups are out as big organizations gravitate toward the big hubs. GlaxoSmithKline ($GSK) and Amgen ($AMGN) have offered two recent examples of that trend, which has benefited hubs like Boston/Cambridge and the Bay Area while inflicting painful cuts in outlying areas. Biopharma companies are also concentrating on core areas, sometime shedding early-stage work--reflected in Merck's ($MRK) recent downsizing at the newly acquired Cubist and the big asset swap that occurred between GlaxoSmithKline and Novartis ($NVS).

( MENAFN - The Peninsula) AFP Tokyo: Nissan plans to cut 10,000 more jobs worldwide, Japanese media reported on Monday, a day before the struggling carmaker was expected to report a record annual loss of around $5 billion. Public broadcaster NHK said the decision, in addition to a November announcement that it would slash 9,000 positions, means Nissan is now aiming to reduce its total workforce by approximately 15 percent. Nissan, whose mooted merger with Honda collapsed earlier this year, declined to comment on the reports which also appeared in the Nikkei business daily. The company -- one of the top 10 automakers by unit sales -- is heavily indebted and engaged in an expensive business restructuring plan. Like many peers, Nissan is finding it difficult to compete against home-grown electric vehicle brands in China, while its profits are now under further threat from US trade tariffs. The possible merger with Japanese rival Honda had been seen as a potential lifeline. | forward | menafn.com | https://menafn.com/1109536888/Struggling-Nissan-To-Cut-10000-More-Jobs-Media |

NBC's cable channels, including USA, Syfy and Bravo, posted a 7.7 percent increase in revenue, to $2.41 billion in the quarter. Its somewhat smaller broadcast business, which has been undergoing a reorganization, had a 11.6 percent increase, to $1.73 billion. Mr. McCormack attributed the broadcast unit's gains to "better ratings and higher retransmission consent fees." Comcast executives specifically credited "The Voice," the singing competition on NBC that has given the network some much-needed momentum. Distribution, not content, remains the biggest part of Comcast's business. Revenue for the distribution business, called Comcast Cable, was up 5.8 percent year-over-year, to about $10.5 billion, partly because it added 187,000 broadband subscribers in the second quarter. Comcast has been losing television subscribers to DirecTV and Verizon FiOS for years, and it lost another 159,000 in the second quarter. But the rate of loss has slowed lately, a point the company emphasized again on Wednesday. | not-forward | www.nytimes.com | https://www.nytimes.com/2013/08/01/business/media/2-media-companies-announce-big-gains-in-profit.html |

Satya Nadella wrote to employees to explain a number of changes to the Senior Leadership Team -- including the departure of Stephen Elop. The former Nokia CEO and Nadella "agreed that now is the right time for him to retire from Microsoft". A question that can be heard echoing through the company is "did he jump, or was he pushed?" Mark Penn is also leaving the company to form a private equity fund. The reorganization additionally sees the company dividing into three distinct teams to "deliver better products and services our customers love at a more rapid pace".

In Moody's opinion, Citigroup has many different possible paths to executing its divestiture, including the sale of the consumer business or the spin-off of the ICG business into a new entity with a brand new bank license. The ultimate resolution of the review is contingent upon whether Citigroup ultimately retains ownership of Citibanamex as a legal entity and what operations are retained by Citibanamex. Also, Moody's will reassess government support considerations, as well as affiliate support in line with the expected ownership, as it relates to strategic fit, control, and financial links, following the business reorganization.Moody's placed Citibanamex's ratings and assessments on review for downgrade in order to incorporate the uncertainties that will come out of this divestiture and the implications on the bank's standalone credit profile.

"India's premium car market is small but with a huge potential," said Land Rover Managing Director Phil Popham. Tata Motors on Friday posted its first consolidated full-year net loss in eight years at 25 billion rupees (520 million dollars), partly blamed on a slump in sales at Jaguar Land Rover, which it bought from Ford last year. Jaguar Land Rover global sales dropped nearly a third in the 10 months to the end of March to 167,000 vehicles from 246,000 the previous year. That prompted the company to say it would not rule out further job losses and plant closures in Britain, where the cars are produced. Jaguar Land Rover chief executive David Smith told reporters the British workforce were "realistic" about the possibility. "If the market dictates, future jobs and plant shutdowns cannot be ruled out" if the economic situation deteriorates, he added. | forward | www.france24.com | http://www.france24.com/en/20090629-tata-motors-brings-jaguar-land-rover-india- |

"They are letting us die," Juan Carlos Vicente, head of the plant workers' committee, told hundreds of his colleagues gathered at the factory. On Wednesday, Nissan's alliance partners Renault of France and Japan's Mitsubishi Motors Corp. announced plans to share purchasing, development and technology to slash costs and improve their competitiveness. Management at Renault was meeting Thursday with unions about its 2 billion euro ($2.2 billion) cost-cutting plan. Nissan has spent much of the past year seeking to recover from the November 2018 arrest of its former chairman, Carlos Ghosn, over financial misconduct allegations, including under-reporting future compensation and misusing Nissan money.

Aside from privacy concerns, some Meta AR/VR users worry that if an AI-powered metaverse takes off, it may not be accessible to and safe for everyone. Already, some women have complained about encountering sexual harassment in the metaverse, such as when a beta tester of Meta's social VR app Horizon Worlds reported being virtually groped by other users. Meta has since instituted what amounts to a 4-foot virtual safety bubble around avatars to help avoid "unwanted interactions." | not-forward | www.vox.com | https://www.vox.com/recode/22948097/mark-zuckerberg-voice-assistant-metaverse-ai-announcement |
