Sales growth for food and liquor, excluding fuel and convenience store sales, of 9.3 per cent and comparable stores growth of 5.1 per cent signals that Coles has wrested momentum in the sector from Woolworths. The relativities might change once Woolworths has rolled out its full fuel network through its joint venture with Caltex, but for the first time in years, Coles is making the running in the sector. With strong sales growth across all its businesses, other than Myer, and chief executive John Fletcher saying there has been margin expansion, Coles is starting to generate the retailer's virtuous cycle of rising volumes and margins that has underpinned Woolworths' success.

Eutelsat entered an agreement in 2001 to use Viasat's LinkStar high performance IP terminals for their broadband multimedia network over Ku-based FSS satellites. Viasat entered a joint venture in 2001 with Loral Skynet to found Immeon Networks to develop the Immeon satellite bandwidth-on-demand service sold in monthly managed service plans. ABC News used Immeon to improve its voice and data-communications for on-location news. 2005-present WildBlue launched its internet service in October 2004 after gaining Ka-band transponder capacity on the Telesat Anik F2 satellite. It conducted formal technical testing until January 2005, followed by nationwide beta testing before the first residential retail customers had services installed in June.

He said Penney customers want to "physically touch" appliances before making the pricey purchases. On Thursday, Macy's CEO Jeff Gennette had left open the possibility of expanding into appliances and other categories to be more of a one-stop shop. Ellison said back-to-school sales were off to a "good start," echoing similar comments from executives at Macy's and Kohl's on Thursday. To get shoppers to spend more, Penney added toy sections in more stores in time for the back-to-school season after testing them last year. And the company hopes more young shoppers will visit the Sephora makeup shops inside Penney's 600 locations, one of the chain's biggest draws, when a new beauty line from singer Rihanna is launched. "Rihanna has one of the largest social media followings of any celebrity," Ellison said. Analysts at Jeffries said in a note Friday that they see "some traction" in Penney's turnaround plan, but said they "remain cautious given a challenged (department) store environment."

Schroder UK Public Private Trust, formerly Woodford Patient Capital Trust, was a detractor to performance. After the liquidity crisis caused by redemptions in the flagship Woodford equity funds, the trust began trading at a widened discount to NAV. The NAV has also fallen significantly as the carrying valuations of various unquoted stocks have been lowered. The trust has now been handed over to an experienced team at Schroders. We believe the new manager can extract value from the current holdings and introduce some promising new investments. Furthermore, three of the trust's largest holdings (Oxford Nanopore, Benevolent AI and Rutherford Health) are highly active in the fight against COVID-19. This should ultimately increase confidence in the portfolio and begin to close the discount.

The DRAM memory industry currently is encountering a shrinking market for traditional PCs, which have been are main DRAM consumer. The rising adoption of mobile computing devices such as tablets does provide an opportunity for DRAM makers, but such devices consume a lot fewer chips than desktops encouraging some chip suppliers to diversify their businesses. Even for memory firms that offer both DRAM and NAND flash and have shifted their expansion focus to the latter product line, a substantial fall in DRAM demand and prices has prompted them to consider new directions to maintain their scale. SK Hynix (formerly Hynix Semiconductor), for instance, has revealed plans to diversify into the foundry business.

The Times article further states that Horizon has increased the price of Duexis by a factor of ten since late 2011 and has done similar things with Vimovo, a similar type of generic combination drug that the company acquired in 2013. Investors are selling the stock because New York Times articles are more likely to draw regulatory scrutiny. Any type of drug price ceiling could send Horizon Pharma's 10.08 forward P/E higher.

The Standard & Poor's credit rating agency said it would not be changing its outlook, partly as it recently downgraded its ratings on Lehman. "Lehman has maintained a very stable funding profile in a challenging environment," Standard & Poor's said. The bank's revenues have slowed markedly in recent months and Lehman said it had had to mark down the value of some of its assets as well as absorbing some trading losses during the quarter. Lehman has cut its exposure to mortgage-backed securities and large real estate investments as it vies to stem its losses. Underlying reduced mergers and acquisitions activity, Lehman said its investment banking revenues had likely moderated to $US900 million ($A940.44 million) during the quarter compared with $US1.2 billion ($A1.25 billion) a year ago.

By comparison, Elevance (formerly Anthem) added 2.2 million medical enrollees last year compared to 2021, up 5% to a total of 47.5 million members while UnitedHealth's member growth barely budged. This metric for health insurers measures the length of time it takes for the company to pay claims, and the meaning of the increase is that customers were waiting longer on average to have their medical claims paid, which could eventually stir consumer resentment and regulatory scrutiny. This is an industry-wide problem, but while UnitedHealth may not be worse than its peers, it can't woo potential new members with claims to be any better.

It's no surprise that Cisco-owned Open DNS was blocking access to the site and warning it was a suspected phishing threat. Meanwhile, in the hours immediately following the breach disclosure, the main Equifax website was displaying debug codes, which for security reasons, is something that should never happen on any production server, especially one that is a server or two away from so much sensitive data.

By Sabrina Valle NEW YORK (Reuters) -Union Pacific, the largest U.S. freight railroad operator, is exploring a possible acquisition of Norfolk Southern (NYSE: NSC ) to create a $200 billion coast-to-coast rail network, a person familiar with the matter said. Talks are in early stages, the person said, with no guarantee talks will progress or that any deal would pass what would be expected to be a lengthy, detailed regulatory review. The two companies declined to comment. Any deal to unite two of the six largest freight rail operators in North America is likely to draw intense regulatory scrutiny. Major shippers in the steel, chemical and grain industries are expected to lobby against any further concentration in an industry that has consolidated from over 100 Class I railroads in the 1950s to just six today. Union Pacific (NYSE: UNP ) shares fell 2.7% in Friday afternoon trading, while Norfolk Southern rose 1.52%.

Concerns over China's growing debt burden have been mounting for a couple of years now, culminating in rating agency Moody's May 2017 decision to downgrade the country's rating from A1 from Aa3 and assign it a negative outlook. Moody's said at the time that the decision was based on its expectation that "China's financial strength will erode somewhat over the coming years, with economy-wide debt continuing to rise as potential growth slows." It also anticipated that while "the authorities' commitment to reform is clear" — as shown, for example, in steps taken to contain the rise in state-owned enterprise debt and discourage certain SOEs from further investment — "we do not think that the reform effort will have sufficient impact, sufficiently quickly, to contain the erosion of credit strength associated with the combination of rising economy-wide leverage and slower growth," Moody's said at the time.

Kepco has been sinking in losses. Last year, it incurred an operating loss of 2.2 trillion won ($1.9 billion) — an epic reversal from the 4.9 trillion won in profit in 2016. Its loss already reached 2.15 trillion won in the first half alone. Global rating agency Standard & Poor's has cut its debt rating to BBB- from BBB. Kim blamed oil prices for the swelling losses. But that cannot be entirely true. International oil prices have sharply dropped this year. In fact, the government slashed the tax for LNG-fueled power stations to 23 won per kilogram from 91.4 won per kilogram. The real reason for the utility firm's deteriorating income is the government's phase-out from nuclear energy. Kepco has to pay 8 trillion won due to its obligation to use renewable energy and other costs related to emissions this year, according to Kim. He was suggesting that if not for the government's rash phase-out and migration to renewables, Kepco would be in a better state.

An investor has succeeded in halting Abigail Adams National Bancorp's planned acquisition of a Virginia bank. The bank had until the end of 1997 to close its deal to buy $72 million- asset Ballston Bancorp but could not secure enough votes to win shareholder approval. The campaign against the deal was led by Marshall T. Reynolds, a member of Adams' board of directors. Mr. Reynolds told Adams in October that he intended to vote against the deal. Adams sued Mr. Reynolds Dec. 12, claiming he was unlawfully lobbying other shareholders against the merger. James H. Schropp, attorney for $128 million-asset Adams, confirmed that the deal is off and said the bank plans to proceed with the lawsuit. "The bank regrets that the Ballston transaction was defeated," Mr. Schropp said, "but it intends to continue with the suit, claiming this vote was the result of an illegal proxy solicitation."

Comparing the Marginal Cost of Wholesale Funds for BAC and WFC Next, we look at the updated marginal cost of funding for two key Berkshire Hathaway investments, Wells Fargo & Co. and Bank of America Corporation. First, we look at the spreads on Wells Fargo & Co. (WFC) bond issues and compare them with the U.S. Dollar Cost of Funds Index. Using a simple average of the difference, we find that Wells Fargo & Co. has a marginal cost of funds 0.215% BELOW the U.S. Dollar Cost of Funds Index. Bank of America Corporation, by contrast, has a marginal cost of funds 0.114% above the U.S. Dollar Marginal Cost of Funds index. This represents an advantage for Wells Fargo & Co. of 0.215% + 0.114% = 0.329% over the marginal cost of funds for Bank of America, about 1 basis point higher than we found two days ago. Ironically, the marginal cost of funds for Berkshire Hathaway, at 0.337% below the U.S. Cost of Funds Index, is lower than the marginal cost of both banks in which Warren Buffett has invested.

At the bank's annual meeting in April, Hernandez received just 53% of shareholder votes, the lowest among the 15 board nominees. Such a result was seen as a harsh rebuke, since directors run unopposed; it's rare in such corporate elections to receive approval ratings below 90%. "As a member of the corporate responsibility committee, Hernandez is not only charged with protecting Wells Fargo's reputation but, more importantly, the trust between the bank and the customers it serves," Chiang said in the statement. Hernandez was largely spared in a Wells Fargo board shakeup last month that entailed the departure of Chairman Stephen Sanger and two long-serving directors. He was replaced as head of the board's risk committee, but he kept his role as head of the finance committee. In September 2016, following the initial account-scandal revelations, Chiang said the California Treasurer's Office would suspend new investments and transactions with Wells Fargo for at least a year.

The fact that Zynga was being treated as a proxy for Facebook is compelling evidence for just how closely the fates of these two companies are linked. Zynga would absolutely love to see itself as being a cross-platform company, with fingers in every pie going - but right now, that's simply not the case. In social networking terms, there's only one pie with any meat in it, and that's Facebook - Google's Plus offering simply hasn't gained any traction as a social network (although it's got an interesting set of content-sharing communities growing up around it), while Twitter isn't a games platform. In mobile terms, Zynga's still far behind the pack and struggling to make mobile work for it. It's wedded to Facebook, whether it likes it or not. Facebook, for its own part, is equally wedded to Zynga.

In addition, both ISS and Glass Lewis, as well as many institutional investors, including BlackRock, Vanguard and State Street, have different definitions of, and policies with respect to, diversity. See Appendix B. For example, ISS and BlackRock consider diversity to be broader and include more categories than Nasdaq (for example, BlackRock considers individuals with disabilities and veterans to be diverse, while Nasdaq does not). As a result, for a company to potentially increase the number of directors on its board that ISS or institutional investors like BlackRock consider to be diverse, it should consider and, if beneficial, disclose information in accordance with a broader definition of diversity.

Bank of England Governor Mervyn King won the fight in Britain to break up the banks that were "too big to fail." Now the big question is: Will Paul Volcker (pictured) get the Obama administration to follow suit ? King got a lot of help from European regulators, who called for more and smaller banks to increase competition. The Royal Bank of Scotland ( RBS ) and Lloyds Banking Group ( LYG ) are being forced to sell off parts of their operations to get additional help from the government. Of the two, RBS will sell off the larger share; with its new cash infusion, the government will own 84.4 percent of the bank, but will have 70.3 percent of the voting rights. In exchange, RBS will get 25.5 billion pounds from the U.K. government.

But very recently, an outcry against Tencent has been echoing in the China's Internet industry. On April 12, one of China's four major portals--also the proxy operator of Blizzard Entertainment's popular online role-playing game World of Warcraft--NetEase Inc. said its key mobile news app was flagrantly plagiarized by Tencent in the latter's iPhone news app Version 2.0. In a statement published on its website, NetEase said Tencent's version of the news app directly copied its design ideas in overall layout, photo viewing and commenting. Indeed, screen grabs of the iPhone news app of NetEase and Tencent look very much the same. But Netease also seems to have something to clarify.

However, it does not seem that the Yingluck Shinawatra's idea of reform council will work because the protest leader Suthep Thaugsuban, a former deputy prime minister, has already said he will not accept the idea of a reform council. The protesters led by Suthep Thaugsuban have been endeavoring to overthrow the government of Yingluck Shinawatra since last month, accusing her of being a proxy of former premier and her elder brother Thaksin Shinawatra, who was toppled by a 2006 military coup and has been lives in self-imposed exile to avoid jail time for a corruption conviction. Suthep Thaugsuban has also vowed to disrupt the upcoming elections scheduled to be held on February 2 and appears to be aiming to create such chaos that Yingluck Shinawatra will have to resign.

The Diamond Green Diesel Port Arthur plant, which started up in the fourth quarter of 2022, boosted the sales volumes, Valero said. Margins for U.S. refiners remained under pressure during the quarter due to easing demand following the end of the peak summer driving season, a string of storms in the U.S. East Coast that kept drivers off the road, and the relatively high prices at the pump. The 3-2-1 crack spread, a proxy for refining margins, fell around 35% during the July-September quarter. Valero said quarterly refining margins fell 8.2% to $5.41 billion. The San Antonio, Texas-based refiner reported an adjusted net income of $7.49 per share for the three months ended Sept. 30, compared with analysts' average estimate of $7.47.

The language in the preamble, though brief, marks the first time Microsoft has publicly acknowledged that it's willing to make a proxy fight out of its campaign to acquire Yahoo. To date, the company has declined comment on reports in the New York Times and other publications that such a campaign is in the cards. Microsoft may have little choice but to resort to a proxy fight as Yahoo's board has flat out rejected Microsoft's offer to buy the company outright for $31 per share. The board last week in a statement said the offer "substantially undervalues" Yahoo. To win a proxy fight, Microsoft would have to convince Yahoo shareholders to vote for a new board of directors that would be friendly to the transaction at Yahoo's next annual meeting -- most likely in May. A proxy war won't be cheap, however. Various estimates put the cost of directly soliciting Yahoo shareholders, and associated legal fees, at between $20 million and $30 million. It would, however, be less expensive than raising the buyout offer.

Problems keep sweeping through the pharmacy benefit management industry like a contagious disease. In a disappointing earnings release on Wednesday, Express Scripts ( ESRX ) revealed that it has become the latest target of state prosecutors investigating major players in the PBM sector. The company's two larger peers -- Medco ( MHS ) and Caremark undefined -- already have come under intense government scrutiny. "While ESRX has been generally above the fray of the legal scrutiny faced by other PBMs, it is obviously no longer immune," wrote Thomas Weisel Partners analyst George Hill, who has a peer perform rating on the stock. "The regulatory scrutiny certainly damages ESRX's credibility in the near-term. "Based on our experience, PBM stocks typically react violently on the downside after such legal issues are announced," Hill wrote. Indeed, shares of Express tumbled 13% to $62.84 late Thursday morning.

If a rival bidder does not step forward to bid on the chain, it appears likely that this deal will close within the first four months of 2013.

Together with FalconStor, transACT can help tackle all obstacles that data modernization brings – from data recovery, back-up and archival – to securely migrating data to the cloud. "transACT works with a range of customers, helping them with their journey to the cloud," Gavin Kilpatrick, head of sales at transACT Technology Solutions.

Hi there. It's been a while since I last wrote about the smartphone patent wars. I consider that a really, really good thing. I really don't like the patent wars. They're little more than a proxy conflict led by Apple and Microsoft to slow down the emergence of competing OEMs in what has obviously become the next big computing market. It is, however, a proxy war they are undeniably winning. Microsoft has inked royalty deals with nearly every Android OEM of note except the Google-owned Motorola (big surprise there), Apple has a nice little licensing arrangement with HTC, and a $600 million verdict against Samsung with another trial considered to be in Apple's favor to come.

In October 2021, a single-judge of the Bombay High Court granted an injunction against a requisition issued by Invesco Developing Markets Fund, which held 17.88% of ZEE Entertainment Enterprises Limited, to convene a meeting of Zee's shareholders. Invesco had sought to requisition the meeting of Zee's shareholders to consider the following proposals: As per press reports, Invesco claimed that it had sought the changes in Zee's Board to protect the minority shareholders of the company and to strengthen the corporate governance standards at a Board level. Despite receiving the requisition, Zee's Board did not act on the requisition notice and did not convene a shareholders' meeting. Given this, Invesco filed a petition before the NCLT, Mumbai seeking directions to, inter alia, have the meeting conducted. In its preliminary order, the NCLT directed Zee to consider the requisition made by Invesco.

Acquiring control of Shoprite will give it access to grocery shoppers in South Africa and 14 other African markets, including fast growing consumer hubs of Nigeria, Angola and Zambia. Steinhoff said in a statement it has entered into call option agreements with Titan Premier Investments, a company ultimately controlled by a Wiese family trust, as well as the Public Investment Corporation (PIC) and Lancaster Group. "The exercise and implementation of the call options will not require STAR to extend a mandatory offer to the remaining Shoprite shareholders," Steinhoff said. Once the call options are exercised and implemented, STAR will hold approximately 22.7% of the economic interest and 50% of the voting rights in Shoprite, Steinhoff said. The deal will value Shoprite's ordinary shares, deferred voting shares and cash at a combined R35.5 billion, the company said.

"Invesco is having some problems. So, if they have any problems they should take us into confidence. Also, they should come in the AGM and explain what is wrong with the company. I hope Invesco is listening. They should not just show the power by the shareholding. They should also come back to the shareholders and explain why we should vote for them. We will be open minded and we will decide on merits," said shareholder Manoj Gupta.

"There are a few conditions if they came in for 2014 or 2015…they want a different type of tire – a lower profile tire – which would look like a bicycle tire on a Formula 1 car, so I am very much against it. "We have a long-term contract with Pirelli, all the teams have now signed a six-year contract with Pirelli – so it appears that they are happy otherwise they wouldn't have signed the contract." If Michelin do come back, it most likely wouldn't be for the 2014 season and it probably wouldn't be under the current regulations governing the tire specifications. As for Todt, the power struggle continues as his election campaign launches but some suggest the lack of a Concorde Agreement, the increase in Super license fees, the tire fiasco of 2013 and the lack of success in the World Rally Championship recovery are signs that Ward could have a chance at winning the election.

The executive's arrest in November has exposed rifts between Renault and Nissan, which some analysts say was bristling at Ghosn's efforts to bring the two automakers' operations even closer together. Ghosn was the lynchpin of the three-way alliance, which also included Mitsubishi, earning industry plaudits for driving together a sometimes fractious threesome with headquarters 10,000km apart. Much of the tension between the partners stems from a complex ownership structure that gives Renault 43 per cent of Nissan, whereas Nissan owns just 15 per cent stake in the French company - and no voting rights.
