Strategy Teach-In

"The next phase of our strategy is: Improve. Grow. Compound. We will continue to improve our businesses through our Business Improvement System, creating the cash, capacity and leadership capability to support growth. We will invest behind our leading market positions, strong customer relationships and the step-change opportunities where we have a clear right to win. Together, these initiatives provide a compelling organic growth plan and underpin our confidence in Avon’s prospects.

Over time, we also see an opportunity to create additional shareholder value by selectively acquiring, improving and growing protection technology businesses where Avon has a genuine ownership advantage. Combined with disciplined capital allocation, we believe this provides a repeatable model to compound shareholder value over the long term."
