Dear Glanbia board of directors…don't be afraid to give up what's good for what's great! Glanbia Plc (LON:GLB) is a multibillion-dollar global nutrition company that's currently comprised of three divisions that span across the B2B supply chain (i.e. Health & Nutrition and Dairy Nutrition) and branded products (Performance Nutrition). “Health & Nutrition” is a leading global ingredients solutions business, providing value added ingredient and flavor solutions to a range of attractive, high-growth end markets. In the first quarter of 2025, revenue increased by 24.9% YoY. “Dairy Nutrition” is the number one producer of American-style cheddar cheese in the U.S. market, but more importantly (for my audience) the number one producer of whey protein isolate…and provides a wide range of dairy and functional protein solutions. In the first quarter of 2025, revenue increased by 18.9%. The brands in the Glanbia Performance Nutrition portfolio include; Optimum Nutrition, BSN, think!, Isopure, Amazing Grass, and SlimFast. Glanbia Performance Nutrition had first quarter 2025 revenue that declined by 6.6% YoY, driven by a volume decrease of 5.8% and a price decrease of 0.8%. Additionally, I'll dive deeper into Glanbia Performance Nutrition geographical, sales channel, product format, and categorial performance. Optimum Nutrition, which was the initial M&A transaction in 2008 that created the GPN division, now represents 66% of the total revenue. In the last year, Optimum Nutrition generated revenue of approximately $1.2 billion. Moreover, Optimum Nutrition is the number one sports nutrition brand in the world and also the top sports nutrition brand in close to 20 different countries. As part of its group-wide transformation program announced last November, that seeks to generate annual cost savings of at least $50m by 2027, leadership noted that a GPN portfolio review to ensure focus can be placed on high-growth opportunities had determined the divesture decision on its Netherlands-based direct-to-consumer ecommerce business, Body & Fit (that was acquired in 2017), and its weight management brand SlimFast (that was acquired for $350 million in 2018). Also, if you don't follow the Irish financial news cycle, you might have missed that the activist investor Clearway Capital is back again! But this time…Clearway Capital is hoping to get support from Tirlán Co-op, which is Ireland's largest, farmer-owned agri-food and nutrition business. Also, Tirlán is the largest shareholder in Glanbia. But while I couldn't get access to the exact letter sent to Tirlán, urging it to support a plan to split up Glanbia…Clearway Capital did recently address the Glanbia board of directors at its annual general meeting, requesting the global nutrition company initiate a strategic review into potential disassembly. And just like three years ago, I'm still largely aligned with those Clearway Capital statements. But the major difference surrounds our motivation as to why we've been urging Glanbia to be split up into two (or three different businesses).

It was basically six years ago when I asked Glanbia to consider something completely foreign to their longstanding business culture, but today's the day my dreams became reality (well sort of)! Glanbia Performance Nutrition is one of two divisions of Glanbia plc (LON:GLB), a multibillion-dollar global nutrition company. The brands in the Glanbia Performance Nutrition portfolio include; Optimum Nutrition, BSN, think!, Isopure, Amazing Grass, and SlimFast. I'll use the recent earnings report, earnings call, and associated news to update you on how Glanbia Nutritionals and Glanbia Performance Nutrition is performing against the complex operating environment. Glanbia Performance Nutrition had full-year 2024 revenue of $1.81 billion, which increased 0.5% YoY. The brand portfolio had volume growth of 2.9%, but that was more than offset by price decline of 4.2% YoY. Additionally, I'll dive deeper into Glanbia Performance Nutrition geographical, sales channel, product format, and categorial performance (performance nutrition, healthy lifestyle, and weight management). Optimum Nutrition, which was the initial M&A transaction in 2008 that created the GPN division, now represents 66% of the total revenue. In 2024, Optimum Nutrition generated revenue of approximately $1.2 billion, which was up 7.5% YoY. Moreover, Optimum Nutrition is the number one sports nutrition brand in the world and also the top sports nutrition brand in close to 20 different countries. As part of its group-wide transformation program announced last November, that seeks to generate annual cost savings of at least $50m by 2027, leadership noted that a GPN portfolio review to ensure focus can be placed on high-growth opportunities had determined the divesture decision on its Netherlands-based direct-to-consumer ecommerce business, Body & Fit (that was acquired in 2017), and its weight management brand SlimFast (that was acquired for $350 million in 2018). And then in this final part of the content, I want to share some comments about how Glanbia intends to navigate the current volatility in the high-end whey market. Glanbia expects a $200 million transitory impact from this cycle of sharp commodity market inflation, which it plans to mitigate by pulling a variety of different front-facing and back-end levers. These include substantial price increases (that will trickle down to consumers later this year), shifts in price pack architecture, reformulation of products, and trade promotion efficiency (and pullback in overall marketing spend). Additionally, Glanbia leadership even noted that long-term investments in alternative protein sources are being considered (which maybe even includes a takeover of the embroiled precision fermentation startup Perfect Day that I suggested Glanbia acquire several years ago).

In this episode of Teaching Python, Sean and Kelly are joined by Renee Noble, a dynamic Microsoft Cloud Advocate and CEO of a nonprofit dedicated to helping women and gender-diverse individuals learn to code. The discussion delves into Renee's inspiring journey from chemical engineering to tech advocacy, her role in the Girls Programming Network (GPN), and how she has helped thousands of individuals build their coding skills and confidence. Renee emphasizes the importance of creating inclusive and supportive learning environments, explaining the unique methodologies used at GPN to cater to diverse learning levels. The conversation also covers the role of mentors and the significance of having role models at different stages of one's learning and professional journey in tech. Finally, Renee shares her insights on her advocacy work at Microsoft and the impact of clear, approachable guidance in onboarding new learners to cloud technologies. Tune in to discover valuable lessons on building supportive tech communities and fostering diversity in the industry.

Did a recent human capital move finally signal that Glanbia Performance Nutrition intends to transform into a “functional beverage powerhouse” long-term that I've been talking about for the last few years? Glanbia Performance Nutrition is one of two divisions of Glanbia plc (LON:GLB), a multibillion-dollar global nutrition company. The brands in the Glanbia Performance Nutrition portfolio include; Optimum Nutrition, BSN, think!, Isopure, Amazing Grass, and SlimFast. I'll use the recent earnings report, earnings call, and associated news to update you on how Glanbia Nutritionals and Glanbia Performance Nutrition is performing against the complex operating environment. Glanbia Performance Nutrition had 2024 first nine month of 2024 revenue growth of 1.7% YoY. The brand portfolio had volume growth of 3.2%, but that was more than offset by price decline of 4% YoY. Additionally, I'll dive deeper into Glanbia Performance Nutrition geographical and product categorial performance (performance nutrition, healthy lifestyle, and weight management). BTW I'm thinking about the creation of a change.org petition for the Glanbia Performance Nutrition division name to be amended to The Optimum Nutrition Company. This one brand alone now accounts for 65% of the total GPN revenue. In first nine months of 2024, Optimum Nutrition had 6.4% YoY growth coming from strong volume gains, but U.S. market retail consumption growth in tracked channels was up 1.1% over the recent 13-week period. Additionally, Optimum Nutrition generated over $1.1 billion in revenue last year...which makes it the number one sports nutrition brand in the world and also the top sports nutrition brand in 18 different countries. Finally, I talk through why I think the recent hiring of GPN Americas President and an announced Glanbia group transformation program sounds like the perfect opportunity to strategically align around GPN becoming a “functional beverage powerhouse” long-term. The RTD beverage format accounts for about 8% of the total GPN revenue…and that basically $150 million in 2024 revenue comes from four main products (across three different GPN brands). Yet, all of the focus will likely be placed on the Optimum Nutrition and ISOPURE protein beverages that have underperformed compared to market leaders like Premier Protein.

PCE the Fed's favored inflation gauges comes in light pointing to the fact that inflation is finally back in check China pumps stimulus and drives the market higher. I am glad to say I have closed my position in a few Chinese stocks! Some analysts are saying it is time to buy consumer discretionary, but I am on the fence about that. Some may be safe but others might be a bit too risky for me just yet. Let's talk about which ones can work. Stock #40 ends with a $C Citi bank win! Week #41 poll, stock of the week! 1. COST 2. LLY 3.

If it ain't broke, don't fix it. But if it's REALLY broke…follow what Glanbia always does and just send it off to the island of the misfit toys! Glanbia Performance Nutrition is one of two divisions of Glanbia plc (LON:GLB), a multibillion-dollar global nutrition company. The brands in the Glanbia Performance Nutrition portfolio include; Optimum Nutrition, BSN, think!, Isopure, Amazing Grass, and SlimFast. I'll use the recent earnings report, earnings call, and associated news to update you on how Glanbia Nutritionals and Glanbia Performance Nutrition is performing against the complex operating environment. Glanbia Performance Nutrition had 2024 first half revenue of $882.1 million, which was down 0.8% YoY. The brand portfolio had volume growth of 3.1%, but that was more than offset by price decline of 3.9% YoY. Additionally, I'll dive deeper into Glanbia Performance Nutrition geographical and product categorial performance (performance nutrition, healthy lifestyle, and weight management). BTW I'm thinking about the creation of a change.org petition for the Glanbia Performance Nutrition division name to be amended to The Optimum Nutrition Company. This one brand alone now accounts for 65% of the total GPN revenue. In 2024 H1, Optimum Nutrition had 7.7% YoY growth coming from strong volume gains, but U.S. market retail consumption growth in tracked channels was basically flat over the 13-week period ending July 14, 2024. Additionally, Optimum Nutrition generated over $1.1 billion in revenue last year...which makes it the number one sports nutrition brand in the world and also the top sports nutrition brand in 18 different countries. I also update you on the GPN revenue breakdowns (and trends) by sales channel and product format. Finally, I talk through a collection of hot takes or things I'm left pondering about Glanbia at this current time. These include the full reasoning behind poor performance of RTD beverages and snacking formats at GPN (beyond the poor performance of SlimFast), slight (but impactful) design changes made to Optimum Nutrition packaging, and my updated outlook on dry whey and cocoa commodity pricing.

Hallo Ihr Lieben, die Befindlichkeiten münden in Paulas Bericht von der GPN, ihre komplizierte Rückfahrt und Hintergrundinfos zu Hohenwulsch. Nur 3 Social Media Zitate und schon sind wir bei der Flut in Süddeutschland, wo wir uns nicht lange aufhalten. Das Thema Europawahl bietet diverse Möglichkeiten zum Abschweifen, wir nehmen sie wahr. Die Kommunalwahlen in 9 Bundesländern passen ganz gut als Ausklang des Themas. Es folgt der Konflikt um ein Like der Präsidentin der TU Berlin. Den Umgang mit den Sängern von Sylt sehen wir als Selbstjustiz, doxen mit Namen und Adresse geht gar nicht. Es folgen 2 IT-Fails und eine Neuigkeit im Umfeld des schon oft erwähnten Falls "Oury Jalloh" und den WTF liefert ein Doppelkandidat an der Brandmauer. Hör(t) doch mal zu, Frank, Paula und Sarah Aufgenommen am 10. Juni 2024, veröffentlicht am 11. Juni 2024, Hörzeit: 02:00:28

Y además, un final que genuinamente nos ha parecido bueno. Y en el que Hardita, una vez más, acierta el giro. No sé cómo lo hace la tía.

Maybe it wasn't the most impressive first official reporting period for Glanbia's new CEO…though it's not always about how you start that's important, but how you finish, right? Glanbia Performance Nutrition is one of two wholly-owned segments of Glanbia plc (LON:GLB), a multibillion-dollar global nutrition company. The brands in the Glanbia Performance Nutrition portfolio include; Optimum Nutrition, BSN, think!, Isopure, Amazing Grass, and SlimFast. I'll use the recent earnings report, earnings call, and associated news to update you on how Glanbia Nutritionals and Glanbia Performance Nutrition is performing against the complex operating environment. Glanbia Performance Nutrition had 2024 first quarter revenue that decreased 1.9% compared to last year. The brand portfolio had volume growth of 1.4%, but that was more than offset by price decline of 3.3% YoY. Additionally, I'll dive deeper into Glanbia Performance Nutrition geographical and product categorial performance (performance nutrition, healthy lifestyle, and weight management). BTW I'm thinking about the creation of a change.org petition for the Glanbia Performance Nutrition division name to be amended to The Optimum Nutrition Company. This one brand alone now accounts for 64% of the total GPN revenue. In 2024 Q1, Optimum Nutrition had 5.6% growth coming from both pricing and volume gains…and U.S. market retail consumption growth in tracked channels was basically flat over the 13-week period ending March 23, 2024. Additionally, Optimum Nutrition generated over $1.1 billion in revenue last year...which makes it the number one sports nutrition brand in the world and also the top sports nutrition brand in 18 different countries. Finally, I talk through a collection of hot takes or things I'm left pondering about Glanbia at this current time. These include where the struggling legacy brand SlimFast sits inside of an evolving weight management category that has seen huge spikes in GLP-1 weight loss solutions (e.g. Ozempic, Wegovy, Zepbound, etc.), think! protein bars and Girl Scouts collaboration, recent marketing strategic partnerships (McClaren F1, Spartan Race, and Sky Sports), dry whey and cocoa commodity pricing, and ISOPURE picking up momentum.

Sometimes when you're looking for billion-dollar opportunities…you can easily overlook those little details that can change everything. In last quarter's Glanbia content, you might have noticed my irritation growing because over the inability of Optimum Nutrition to have a protein RTD offering that's competing closely with the likes of market leaders…Premier Protein, Fairlife/Core Power, and Muscle Milk. But maybe I was looking at this problem from the wrong angle…maybe the answer to competing in the growing protein beverages market is through ISOPURE. But you might be asking why hasn't ISOPURE been successful to those massive levels either yet? And in this content I'll explore that...and more! Glanbia Performance Nutrition is one of two wholly-owned segments of Glanbia plc (LON:GLB), a multibillion-dollar global nutrition company. The brands in the Glanbia Performance Nutrition portfolio include; Optimum Nutrition, BSN, think!, Isopure, Amazing Grass, and SlimFast. I'll use the recent earnings report, earnings call, and associated news to update you on how Glanbia Nutritionals and Glanbia Performance Nutrition is performing against the complex operating environment. Glanbia Performance Nutrition had 2023 full-year revenue of $1.8 billion, which was an increase 4.8% compared to last year. The brand portfolio continued to have strong pricing power in the market (with it being up 5.4%), but volume was down 0.6%. Additionally, I'll dive deeper into Glanbia Performance Nutrition geographical and product categorial performance (performance nutrition, healthy lifestyle, and weight management). BTW I'm thinking about the creation of a change.org petition for the Glanbia Performance Nutrition division name to be amended to The Optimum Nutrition Company. This one brand alone now accounts for 62% of the total GPN revenue. In 2023, Optimum Nutrition had 17% growth coming from both pricing and volume gains…and U.S. market retail consumption growth in tracked channels was 13.7% over the 52-week period ending December 31, 2023. Additionally, Optimum Nutrition generated over $1.1 billion in revenue in 2023...which makes it the number one sports nutrition brand in the world and also the top sports nutrition brand in 18 different countries. Finally, I talk through a collection of hot takes or things I'm left pondering about Glanbia at this current time. These include where the struggling legacy brand SlimFast sits inside of an evolving weight management category that has seen huge spikes in GLP-1 drugs (e.g. Ozempic, Wegovy, etc.), the think! protein bar brand (which has regained sales momentum after the “Great Shutdown” period) will see an exciting licensing partnership come sometime later this year, and why I think Glanbia is addressing the growth opportunity within the digital channel in the incorrect manner.

If there's one thing consistent about Glanbia each year, it's that the global nutrition group always makes at least one acquisition. Glanbia Performance Nutrition is one of two wholly-owned segments of Glanbia plc (LON:GLB), a multibillion-dollar global nutrition company. The brands in the Glanbia Performance Nutrition portfolio include; Optimum Nutrition, BSN, think!, Isopure, Amazing Grass, and SlimFast. I'll use the recent earnings report, earnings call, and associated news to update you on how Glanbia Nutritionals and Glanbia Performance Nutrition is performing against the complex operating environment. Glanbia Performance Nutrition had 2023 YTD revenue increased 2.7% YoY, but that was a sequential slowdown from the first six months in 2023. The brand portfolio continued to have strong pricing power in the market (with it being up 8.9%), but volume was down 6.2%. Additionally, I'll dive deeper into Glanbia Performance Nutrition geographical and product categorial performance (performance nutrition, healthy lifestyle, and weight management). BTW I'm thinking about the creation of a change.org petition for the Glanbia Performance Nutrition division name to be amended to The Optimum Nutrition Company. This one brand alone now accounts for 61% of the total GPN revenue. In the first nine months of 2023, Optimum Nutrition had 14.5% growth coming from both pricing and volume gains…and U.S. market retail consumption growth in tracked channels was 9.5% over the twelve-week period ending September 10, 2023. Finally, I talk through a collection of hot takes or things I'm left pondering about Glanbia at this current time. These include where the struggling legacy brand SlimFast sits inside of an evolving weight management category that has seen huge spikes in GLP-1 drugs (e.g. Ozempic, Wegovy, etc.), why Optimum Nutrition needs to grow its protein RTD beverage offering, and why Optimum Nutrition needs to go back to the drawing board with Amino Energy to win any share in the energy drinks market.

After a decade of consistent leadership coming to an end soon, will there be major changes ahead for the multibillion-dollar global nutrition company? Glanbia Performance Nutrition is one of two wholly-owned segments of Glanbia plc (LON:GLB), a multi-billion dollar global nutrition company. The brands in the Glanbia Performance Nutrition portfolio include; Optimum Nutrition, BSN, think!, Isopure, Amazing Grass, and SlimFast. I'll use the recent earnings report, earnings call, and associated news to update you on how Glanbia Nutritionals and Glanbia Performance Nutrition is performing against the complex operating environment. Glanbia Performance Nutrition had 2023 H1 revenue of $889 million, which increased 3.4% YoY, but that was a sequential slowdown from Q1. The brand portfolio continued to have strong pricing power in the market (with it being up 10.9%), but volume was down 7.5%. Additionally, I'll dive deeper into Glanbia Performance Nutrition geographical, product format, sales channel, and categorial performance (performance nutrition, healthy lifestyle, and weight management). BTW I'm thinking about the creation of a change.org petition for the Glanbia Performance Nutrition division name to be amended to The Optimum Nutrition Company. This one brand alone now accounts for 60% of the total GPN revenue. In the first half of 2023, Optimum Nutrition had 16.2% growth coming from both pricing and volume gains…and U.S. market consumption growth was 14.3%. Finally, I talk through what it could mean for Glanbia as longtime Group Managing Director, Siobhán Talbot, is retiring and current head of the Glanbia Performance Nutrition division, Hugh McGuire, will take over starting January 1, 2024. Is this a big deal? The short answer is yes! So, what does the next 3-5 years at Glanbia look like? Hugh himself stated the normal boiler plate CEO changeover stuff in statements, but I think Glanbia needs to utilize its strong financial position to make a transformative acquisition. I still think blood is in the water over at THG (aka The Hut Group and MyProtein). That large transaction could be accompanied by a spin off its Glanbia Performance Nutrition division into a standalone company with a dual listing in the United States and Ireland. That's the kind of legacy creating move that Hugh McGuire likely pitched to the board during the interview process…or at least be something living rent free in his head.

Glanbia is certainly making that cheddar…figuratively and literally, but which GPN brand has been cutting the cheese lately? Glanbia Performance Nutrition is one of two wholly-owned segments of Glanbia plc (LON:GLB), a multi-billion dollar global nutrition company. The brands in the Glanbia Performance Nutrition portfolio include; Optimum Nutrition, BSN, think!, Isopure, Amazing Grass, and SlimFast. I'll use the recent earnings report, earnings call, and associated news to update you on how Glanbia Nutritionals and Glanbia Performance Nutrition is performing against the complex operating environment. Glanbia Performance Nutrition had 2023 Q1 revenue growth of 4.6% YoY on a constant currency basis from strong pricing increases. Additionally, I'll dive deeper into Glanbia Performance Nutrition categorial performance (performance nutrition, healthy lifestyle, and weight management). BTW I'm thinking about the creation of a change.org petition for the Glanbia Performance Nutrition division name to be amended to The Optimum Nutrition Company. This one brand alone now accounts for 60% of the total GPN revenue. This quarter, Optimum Nutrition had 20.8% growth and even more impressive U.S. consumption growth of 36.1%. With these recent Optimum Nutrition growth numbers…I want to be one of the first to congratulate the performance nutrition brand on becoming the most recent categorical brand to reach $1 billion in annualized revenue. Finally, I talk through a recent Glanbia M&A transaction and what that could or should signal from my perspective. I know I've talked about this a year ago, but it feels like Glanbia is at a bit of a crossroads right now. Path number one…do nothing substantial from an outside perspective and just use excess liquidity to rebalance risk tolerance to increase marketing and/or product innovation. Path number two…add a large asset through M&A. I've thrown out two compelling ones lately…THG (aka Myprotein), but you'd need to divest the beauty segment. The other was the precision fermentation startup Perfect Day that would have all kinds of interesting future plays. Path number three…Glanbia should start the corporate communications around a spin off its Glanbia Performance Nutrition division into a standalone company with a dual listing in the United States and Ireland. Either way…Glanbia has certainly become an increasingly fun behemoth to watch, right?

Did Optimum Nutrition just join an ultra-exclusive club within the supplement industry? Glanbia Performance Nutrition had 2022 revenue growth of 13.9% YoY on a constant currency basis from strong pricing increases. They also benefitted from the mid-2021 acquisition of LevlUp, a gamer (esports) nutrition brand. Glanbia Performance Nutrition is one of two wholly-owned segments of Glanbia plc (LON:GLB), a multi-billion dollar global nutrition company. The brands in the Glanbia Performance Nutrition portfolio include; Optimum Nutrition, BSN, think!, Isopure, Amazing Grass, and SlimFast. I'll use the recent earnings report, earnings call, and associated news to update you on how Glanbia Nutritionals and Glanbia Performance Nutrition is performing against the complex operating environment. Additionally, I'll dive deeper into Glanbia Performance Nutrition categorial performance (performance nutrition, healthy lifestyle, weight management, and international). I also share a collection of hot takes or things I'm left pondering about Glanbia after hearing GPN strategic priorities going forward. This includes a larger long-term prediction about Optimum Nutrition, pondering acquisition targets like MyProtein and a precision fermentation startup like Perfect Day, and explanation around why the mismanagement of BSN is only getting worse by the day.

A new report from UN entitled "The State of Food Security and Nutrition in the World 2022" said that we are in the wrong way to fix all these problems. Additionally, global food production currently accounts for 80% of deforestation and 70% of all freshwater use, according to the WWF. Having said that the future could be scary, however there is a light, so to help the agriculture to meet the high customer demand the artificial intelligence and automation landed to rescue greenhouses and farms. To give it a hand of what could be the greater resilience of our planet about food security, we found IUNU which helps to provide higher yields and produce better. It's focused on being the world's leading controlled environment specialist. It works with more than 75% of the top leafy greens growers, and continues to lead in the ornamentals, cannabis, and vertical farming markets. Adam Greenberg, CEO of IUNU came up with one of the most advance horticultural platforms on the market and helps to turn commercial greenhouses into precise, predictable once.  Adam have been recognized with a Medal of Excellence nomination from Greenhouse Grower, best new indoor growing technology from the  United Fresh Produce Association, and he was named to GPN's 40 Under 40 Class of 2020, among other recognitions. . .

A discussion with our friends at Doctor's in Distress; a charity which is dedicated to supporting healthcare workers suffering within the NHS and prevents suicide within the profession. With 3 guest speakers we discuss:The consequences of not looking after the mental health of our healthcare workersIncreased burnoutHealthcare workers leaving the profession Poor mental health and in some cases suicide amongst all healthcare professionalsThe current GP crisisThe damage of the healthcare workers as heroes narrativeIncreased pressure on an already burned out and perfectionist workforceHealthcare workers are already reluctant to ask for help – if they're called heroes/heroines this inhibits this further.Links:Doctors in DistressPermitted to PauseBios:Dr Gavin McCollGavin is a trustee of 'Doctors in Distress' a charity that supports healthcare workers and prevents suicide within the profession.

In 2010 he established the charity 'On Call Africa' with three colleagues and has developed a replicable model that addresses remote health care delivery in Zambia which works to strengthen and augment, rather than replace, the capacity of the existing health services. Miss Samantha AnthonySamantha is an Associate Specialist in Dermatology at West Herts NHS Trust, principally working as a skin cancer surgeon for the past 14 years and previously as a GP too.  After being diagnosed with cancer in 2006 and when reaching burnout in 2017, she created Permitted To Pause (www.permittedtopause.co.uk and instagram @permittedtopause), to reach out to doctors and healthcare professionals to encourage positive changes to their well-being, and share understanding of why self-care is so often a low priority in the profession, and to help us all to overcome our barriers to this.

I looked at today's mostly red market and discussed an interesting analysis about the correlation between the price-to-sales ratio and a stock's return. I also covered Square's (SQ) acquisition of Afterpay (AFTPY) and how the news impacted Global Payments' (GPN) stock price. Let's get started!  

We should be ending coming to the end of day two! Instead, we'll relive some fantastic stories from some previous winners! First up three-time winner Eugene Donnelly who regales us with tales as his Donnelly Motorsport team built up from humble beginning to win the Donegal Rally three times. Following on Rory Kennedy has competed across the world but his best memories are from his home town Rally. As he explains starting out with James Cullen, quickly rising through the ranks, sitting with the ultimate Irish driver of a generation Bertie Fisher, the story continues through co-driving for Mark Higgins and Garry Jennings. Finally, for tonight, Sam Moffett recalls his early days in GpN before switching to a WRC Subaru, taking his first win that no one predicted. Being involved in some magic battles over the last number of years and taking his second win in 2019.

As we look at our organizations from the executive level, it's important to evaluate whether people are in the right seat or the right role. Specifically, it is important to be looking at your talent and whether they are in the right position for where the company is going to go. To help us break down this topic today is Amy Stalker, Sr. Director of People Operations for GPN. In this episode, she will be sharing her thoughts on how to efficiently and appropriately move talent throughout your organization.

Did Glanbia Performance Nutrition benefit from pent-up global demand or is something else at play here? Glanbia Performance Nutrition 21Q1 net revenues increased 17.6% YoY on a like-for-like basis from both strong pricing and volume increases. While that growth is extremely strong, leadership did note on the earnings call that about one-third of the consumption growth can be attributed to inventory builds with retailers. As part of the Glanbia Performance Nutrition transformation program, the company again adjusted the organizational and reporting structure. Instead of the recently instituted “Lifestyle”, “Sports Nutrition” and "International/DTC", it will now be "Americas" and "International" only. That being said, Glanbia Performance Nutrition hired two new leadership positions; Chief Growth Officer (focuses by brand) and Chief Commercialization Officer (focuses on channels). Additionally, with almost three-fourths of Glanbia Performance Nutrition revenue is now made up of Optimum Nutrition and Slim Fast. Even with increased advertising spend on both brands planned through the entire 2021, I do think these brands have different 5-year trajectories though, and outside of increased CAPEX spending, Glanbia will need to utilize it's strengthened balance sheet to be more aggressive with M&A. We've yet to see any deals yet from Glanbia Performance Nutrition side while competitors have been gobbling up prime targets. While the “COVID-19 Effect” challenged Glanbia in 2020, the well-timed transformation plan and improving environment around long-term secular trends should make the company stronger for the future. That being said, problems still lie on recalibrating the GPN brand portfolio and one they will have to address head-on in the next year if they want to sustain their market leadership against large CPG portfolios like Nestle.

Everyone talks about sports and active nutrition going 'mainstream', particularly in categories like Healthy Snacking. But what does it take to compete in the world of healthy snacking that is already mass and saturated with well-established multi-national brands. Sara Trechman is co-founder of Well&Truly - a mainstream (savoury) healthy snacking brand. Sara helps us understand the realities of this category, how it is defined, and crucially, what it takes to be successful. Sara also brings with her 6 years of senior experience working with GPN and PhD and helps us to reflect on what the opportunities and risks are for sports nutrition brands in this environment. I often say that it isn't the category of sports nutrition that has gone mainstream, it is the principles of sports nutrition. This is a great listen for those trying to better understand the opportunities for growth in snacking and functional foods.

GPN's top 100 growers list raised a lot of questions for Michelle & Peter. We prize large operations but is it possible to be small and successful? This question is more pressing today because nearly 40% of greenhouse growers went out of business during the Great Recession. Is another round of consolidation coming or will a coronavirus induced recession be different? Here are some ways the small farmers can survive this time around.

SUBSCRIBE: WWW.EARTHREPAIRRADIO.COM This episode looks at the successful and ongoing story of the Ghana Permaculture Institute and their work in creating region-wide economic development using permaculture strategies. Dr. Paul Yeboah has not only restored the fertility and the water table of his 30 acre demonstration site, but he has created a processing system for a number of local crops to add value that is then returned to the farmers, improving their livelihoods and basic standard of living. He has 10,000 farmers growing Moringa, 3,000 producing honey, as well as many others growing other fragrant plants for essential oils that he is processing and selling on the local and global markets. His economic organization is making a huge impact and now the government of Ghana is paying him to advocate for permaculture and promote the economic and ecological models he has pioneered. This is a success story with lots of wisdom to share from West Africa.

In der vierten Folge wird in den sibyllinischen Neuigkeiten über die Eindrücke der GPN 17 gesprochen.

We continue our discussion with Dr. Ann Cavoukian. She is currently Executive Director of Ryerson University’s Privacy and Big Data Institute and is best known for her leadership in the development of Privacy by Design (PbD). In this segment, Cavoukian tells us that once you’ve involved your customers in the decision making process, “You won’t believe the buy-in you will get under those conditions because then you’ve established trust and that you’re serious about their privacy.” We also made time to cover General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) as well as three things organizations can do to demonstrate that they are serious about privacy. Learn more about Dr. Cavoukian: Follow her on Twitter: @AnnCavoukian Read her book: Who Knows: Safeguarding Your Privacy in a Networked World Transcript Cindy Ng: Dr. Cavoukian, besides data minimalization, de-identification, user access control, what are some other concrete steps that businesses can take to benefit from protecting privacy? Dr. Cavoukian: I think one of the things businesses don't do very well is involve their customers in the decisions that they make, and I'll give you an example. Years ago I read something called "Permission Based Marketing" by Seth Godin, and he's amazing. And I read it, and I thought, "Oh this guy must have a privacy background," because it was all about enlisting the support of your customers, gaining their permission and getting them to, as Godin said, "Put their hand up and say 'count me in.'" So I called him, he was based in California at the time, and I said, "Oh Mr. Godin, you must have a privacy background?" And he said something like, "No, lady, I'm a marketer through and through, but I can see the writing on the wall. We've gotta engage customers, get them involved, get them to wanna participate in the things we're doing." So, I always tell businesses that are serious about privacy, "First of all, don't be quiet about it. Shout it from the rooftops, the lengths you're going to, to protect your customer's privacy. How much you respect it, how user-centric your programs are, and you're focused on their needs in delivering." And, then, once they understand this is the background you're bringing, and you have great respect for privacy, in that context you say, "We would like you to consider giving us permission to allow it for these additional secondary uses. Here's how we think it might benefit you, but we won't do it without your positive consent." You wouldn't believe the buy-in you will get under those conditions because then you have established a trusted business relationship. They can see that you're serious about privacy, and then they say, "Well by all means, if this will help me, in some way, use my information for this additional purpose." You've gotta engage the customers in an active dialog. Cindy Ng: So ask, and you might receive. Dr. Cavoukian: Definitely, and you will most likely receive. Cindy Ng: In sales processes they're implementing that as well, "Is it okay if I continue to call you, or when can I call you next?" So they're constantly feeling they're engaged and part of the process, and it's so effective. Dr. Cavoukian: And I love that. Myself, as a customer... I belong to this air miles program, and I love it, because they don't do anything without my positive consent. And, yet, I benefit because they send me targeted ads and things I'm interested in. And I'm happy to do that, and then I get more points and then it just continues to be a win-win. Cindy Ng: Did you write anything about user access controls? What are your thoughts on that? Dr. Cavoukian: We wrote about it in the context of that you've gotta have restricted access to those who have... I was gonna say, "Right to know." Meaning there are some business purpose for which they're accessing the data. And that can be...when I say, "business purpose," I mean that broadly, in a hospital. People who are taking care of a patient, in whatever context, it can be in the lab. They go there for testing. Then they go for an MRI, and then they go... So there could be a number of different arms that have legitimate access to the data, because they've gotta process it in a variety of different ways. That's all legitimate, but those people who aren't taking care of the patient, in some broad manner, should have absolutely complete restricted access to the data. Because that's when the snooping and the rogue employee... Cindy Ng: Curiosity. Dr. Cavoukian: ...picture, the curiosity, takes you away, and it completely distorts the entire process in terms of the legitimacy of those people who should have access to it, especially in a hospital context, or patient context. You wanna enable easy access for those who have a right to know because they're treating patients. And then the walls should go up for those who are not treating in any manner. It'd be difficult to do, but it is imminently doable, and you have to do it because that's what patients expect. Patients have no idea that someone might be just, out of curiosity, looking at their file. You've had a breast removed, you had... I mean horrible things happen. Cindy Ng: Tell us about GDPR, and it's implications on Privacy by Design. Dr. Cavoukian: For the first time, right now the EU has the General Data Protection Regulation, which passed for the first time, ever. It has the words, the actual words, "Privacy by Design" and "Privacy as the default" in the stature. Cindy Ng: That's great. Dr. Cavoukian: It's a first, it's really huge, but what that means, it will strengthen those laws far higher than the U.S. laws. We talked about privacy as the default. It's the model of positive consent. It's not just looking for the opt out box. It's gonna really raise the bar, and that might present some problems in dealing with laws in the states. Cindy Ng: Then there's also their right to be forgotten, and we live in such a globalized world, people both doing business in the states and in Europe, it's been complicated. Dr. Cavoukian: It does get very complicated. What I tell people everywhere that I go to speak is that if you follow the principles of Privacy by Design, which in itself raised the bar dramatically from most legislation, you will virtually be assured of complying with your regulations, whatever jurisdiction you're in. Because you're following the highest level of protection. So that's another attractive feature about Privacy by Design is it offers such a high level of protection that you're virtually assured of regulatory compliance, whatever jurisdiction you're in. And in the U.S., I should say, that the FTC, the Federal Trade Commission, a number of years ago, under Jon Leibowitz, when he was Chair, they made Privacy by Design the first of three best practices that the FTC recommended. And since he's left, and Chairwoman Edith Ramirez is the Chair, she has also followed Privacy by Design and Security by Design, which are absolutely, interchangeably critical, and they are holding this high bar. So, I urge companies always to follow this to the extent that they can, because it will elevate their standing, both with the regulatory bodies, like the FTC, and with commissioners, and jurisdictions, and the EU, and Australia, and South America, South Africa. There's something called GPN, the Global Privacy Network, and a lot of the people who participate in these follow these discussions. Cindy Ng: What are three things that organizations can do in terms of protecting their consumers' privacy? Dr. Cavoukian: So, when I go to a company, I speak to the board of directors, their CEO, and their senior executive. And I give them this messaging about, "You've gotta be inclusive. You have to have a holistic approach to protecting privacy in your company, and it's gotta be top down." If you give the messaging to your frontline folks that you care deeply about your customer's privacy, you want them to take it seriously, that message will emanate. And, then what happens from there, the more specific messaging is, what you say to people, is you wanna make sure that customers understand their privacy is highly respected by this company. "We go to great lengths to protect your privacy." You wanna communicate that to them, and then you have to follow up on it. Meaning, "We use your information for the purpose intended that we tell you we're gonna use it for. We collect it for that purpose. We use it for that purpose." And then, "Privacy is the default setting. We won't use it for anything else without your positive consent after that, for secondary uses." So that's the first thing I would do. Second thing I would do is I would have at least quarterly meetings with staff. You need to reinforce this message. It's gotta be spread across the entire organization. It can't just be the chief privacy officer who's communicating this to a few people. You gotta get everyone to buy into this, because you... I was gonna say the lowest. I don't mean low in terms of category, but the frontline clerk might be low on the totem pole, but they may have the greatest power to breach privacy. So they have to understand, just like the highest senior manager has to understand, how important privacy is and why and how you can protect it. So have these quarterly meetings with your staff. Drive the message home, and it can be as simple as them understanding that this is... You're gonna get what I call, "privacy payoff." By protecting your customer's privacy, it's gonna yield big returns for your company. It will increase customer confidence and enhance customer trust, and that will increase our bottom line. And the third thing, I know this is gonna a little pompous, but I would invite, and only because this happened to me, I've been invited in to speak to a company, like, once a year. And you invite everybody, from top to bottom. You open it up and... People need to have these ideas reinforced. It has to be made real. "Is this really a problem?" So, you bring in a speaker. I'm using myself as an example because I've done it, but it can be anybody who can speak to what happens when you don't protect your customer's privacy. It really helps for people inside a company, especially those doing a good job, to understand what can happen when you don't do it right and what the consequences are to both the company and to employees. They're huge. You can lose your jobs. The company could go under. You could be facing class action lawsuits. And I find that it's not all a bad news story. I give the bad news, what's happening out there and what can happen, and then I applaud the behavior of the companies. And what they get is this dual message of, "Oh my God, this is real. This has real consequences when we fail to protect customer's privacy, but look at the gains we have, look at the payoff in doing so." And it makes them feel really good about themselves and the job that they're doing, and it underscores the importance of protecting customer's privacy.

Einen fahrbaren Roboter zu bauen- das ist schon eine echte Herausforderung. Um diesem aber auch noch beizubringen autonom Aufgaben zu lösen, bedienten sich Michael Fürst und sein Team der Mathematik: Im Rahmen der Gulasch Programmier-Nacht (GPN16) des Entropia e.V. in der Hochschule für Gestaltung (HfG) und dem Zentrum für Kunst und Medien (ZKM) in Karlsruhe berichtete er über die Verfahren der Probabilistischen Robotik (Video) und welche Erfahrungen sie damit machen konnten- und erzählt uns im Gespräch mit Sebastian Ritterbusch davon. Michael Fürst studiert Informatik am Karlsruher Institut für Technologie (KIT) und befasst sich im Team Informatik der Hochschulgruppe Kamaro Engineering speziell mit robusten probabilistischen Methoden zur Entscheidungsfindung. Der aktuelle Roboter Beteigeuze der Hochschulgruppe ist die zweite Generation und wurde dafür ausgelegt, Aufgaben in der Überwachung und Bewirtschaftung von Maisfeldern oder der Navigation im urbanen Umfeld zu erfüllen. Die Hochschulgruppe gibt es seit 3 Jahren und besteht aus 30-45 Mitgliedern. Sie ist eingebettet in das Teilinstitut Mobile Arbeitsmaschinen (MOBIMA) am Institut für Fahrzeugsystemtechnik (FAST) am KIT mit dessen Unterstützung und Drittspenden sich die Hochschulgruppe finanziert. Die interdisziplinäre Hochschulgruppe besteht aus vier Teams: Das Organisationsteam, das Mechanik-Team, das Elektrotechnik-Team und das Informatik-Team. Die Gruppe organisiert sich auch als Verein mit Vorstand und einer Leitung in jedem Team, um mit einer flachen Hierarchie jedem die Möglichkeit zu bieten sich in das Projekt einzubringen. Auf der einen Seite will die Gruppe die autonome Robotik voranzubringen und allen Teammitgliedern gleichzeitig auch die Möglichkeit zu bieten, praktisches Wissen und Erfahrungen neben dem oft theoretischem Studium zu erlangen. Das Team nimmt dazu regelmäßig an verschiedenen internationalen Wettbewerben teil, wie dem Field Robot Event, dem SICK Robot Day oder der Robotour. Technisch basiert die Software-Lösung des Roboters inzwischen auf dem Robot Operating System (ROS), mit dem auf einer Ubuntu-Plattform auf einem im Roboter eingebauten Computer in Java, Python oder C++ die gestellten Aufgaben bearbeitet werden. Mit 40kg Gewicht ist der Roboter für seine Größe kein Leichtgewicht und kann daher nicht beliebig Batterien transportieren, so dass dem Lademanagement eine besondere Rolle zufällt. Die gewählte Größe ermöglicht gerade bei der Feldarbeit einen nicht-invasiven Ansatz, der im Vergleich zu anderen Varianten, wie der automatischen Steuerung von Traktoren, die Pflanzen nicht schädigt. Der Roboter erfasst seine Umwelt mit einer Vielzahl von Sensoren: Die Lidar-Sensoren zur Entfernungsmessung in verschiedenen Richtungen sind dabei besonders wichtig, und sie messen bis zu 50mal pro Sekunde. Sie bestimmen die Entfernungen zur Umgebung des Roboters in einer Ebene bis 16m in einer Auflösung von bis zu drei Messpunkten pro Winkel-Grad und 3cm Entfernungsauflösung- mit gewissen Fehlerraten und Problemen mit reflektierenden Oberflächen. Zusätzlich misst eine intertiale Messeinheit translative und radiale Beschleunigungen wie auch die Ausrichtung zum Erdmagnetfeld. Zusätzlich können auch digitale Kameras zur Detektion von befahrbaren Untergründen, Objekten oder zur Analyse von Pflanzen eingebaut und verwendet werden. Zusätzlich messen Radencoder die Umdrehungen und Auslenkung durch Servos der Räder, womit der Roboter durch Odometrie seine durchgeführte Bewegung aus sich selbst heraus abschätzt. Durch die Kombination der Lidar-Daten mit der Odometrie durch ein SLAM-Verfahren (Simultaneous Localization and Mapping) ermöglicht mit einem Kalman-Filter durch Analyse der Kovarianzen die robuste Erstellung einer Karte während des Befahrens, und korrigiert Fehler bei der eigenen Lokalisierung durch die Odometrie. Zusätzlich kann der Roboter mit einem GPS-Empfänger seine Position grob bestimmen. In der Auswertung der Sensoren wird zwar von einer guten Kalibrierung ausgegangen, jedoch ist es Teil des probabilistischen Ansatzes, die erfassten Werte immer mit einer konservativen Fehlerverteilung zu verarbeiten. Die Kamerabilder werden ebenso robust verarbeitet: Die Bilddaten werden nach einer Konvertierung in den HSV-Farbraum zunächst auf eine konstante Helligkeit gebracht, um Schatteneffekte zu reduzieren. Dann werden alle weniger farbigen Pixel als befahrbarer Weg markiert, und die Anzahl der befahrbaren Pixel pro Spalte in ein Histogramm zusammengeführt. Jeder Wert in dem Histogramm wird nun als Güte bzw. der Wahrscheinlichkeit für Fahrbahn in diese Richtung gewertet. Die GPS-Position wird zur Lokalisierung in der Open Street Map verwendet, wo nach Berechnung einer Route die aktuelle Zielfahrtrichtung bestimmt wird. Die eigentliche Entscheidungsfindung erfolgt dann auf Basis der verschiedenen Sensordaten durch die Berechnung von Erwartungswerten in Abhängigkeit von einer möglichen Fahrtrichtung. Genauer betrachtet werden für jeden Sensor Zielfunktionen über den erwarteten Nutzen unter Annahme des Fahrens in eine bestimmte Richtung berechnet, und anschließend der von der Fahrtrichtung abhängige Erwartungswert unter Annahme von Sensorungenauigkeiten und Fahrungenauigkeiten bestimmt. Im Falle der gewünschten Fahrtrichtung aus den GPS- und Kartendaten wird eine sehr breite Normalverteilung angesetzt, weil auch abweichende Richtungen noch einen Gewinn darstellen können, wenn sie zumindest etwas in die richtige Richtung gehen. Aus jedem Sensor ergibt sich pro Fahrtrichtung ein erwarteter Teilnutzen, und aus allen Teilnutzen wird der Gesamtnutzen als Produkt berechnet: Dadurch werden Teilnutzen von 0 sofort als Gesamtnutzen 0 gewertet, ansonsten aber geometrisches Mittel über die Teilnutzen gebildet. Die gewählte Fahrrichtung ergibt sich dann aus der Richtung, unter der sich das Gesamtmaximum des Gesamtnutzens ergibt. Die Verarbeitung der Sensordaten erfolgt typischerweise in der Geschwindigkeit, in der die Sensoren die Umgebung abtasten. In der Bildverarbeitung wird dies besonders durch die effizienten Routinen der verwendeten OpenCV-Bibliothek möglich. So sind bis zu 30 Entscheidungen in der Sekunde möglich, jedoch können die Motoren die Entscheidungen nur deutlich langsamer umsetzen. Es wurden auch weitere Verfahren zur Entscheidungsfindung getestet, wie die Verwendung von Clusteranalyse oder die Erstellung von Voronio-Diagrammen. Doch zeigte die robuste Entscheidungsfindung über Erwartungswerte bei der Navigation im urbanen Gebiet ihre Vorteile. Die beschriebene Entscheidungsfindung bezieht sich dabei bisher nur auf die Fahrtrichtung- die Fahrtgeschwindigkeit wird bisher nur von der freien Wegstrecke in Fahrtrichtung bestimmt. Dadurch verfolgt der Roboter im Normalfalle seine Ziele in Normgeschwindigkeit von 0.5-1m/s (er läuft und läuft und läuft), bremst aber, sobald er in die Gefahr gerät, sonst einen Menschen oder sich selbst zu beschädigen. Dadurch folgt der Roboter den Robotergesetzen von Asimov. Die Kommunikation im Roboter erfolgt über verschiedene Netze- der Lidar-Sensor wird beispielsweise über Ethernet angesprochen, die Entscheidungsfindung spricht mit den Hauptroutinen in der Recheneinheit über eine TCP-Verbindung, die Kommunikation von der Recheneinheit zum Masterboard erfolgt über USB als serielle Schnittstelle (UART), und das Masterboard gibt seine Steuerbefehle über einen CAN-Bus an Motoren und Servos weiter. Der Wettbewerb der Robotour 2015 fand in Tschechien in der Innenstadt von Pisek statt. Nach einer Qualifikation vor Ort gab es nach einer Testrunde eine erste Wettkampfrunde, in der die Roboter eine Lieferung von einem Parkplatz durch die gesamte Innenstadt über festgelegte Wegpunkte letztlich zu einem Restaurant bringen sollen. Obwohl der Testlauf noch erfolgreich war, litt der Roboter Beteigeuze der Gruppe in den ersten zwei Segmenten unter Abstürzen und lag damit auf dem letzten Platz. Nachdem der Fehler gefunden war, erreichte der Roboter im dritten Lauf als einziger das Segmentziel; und blieb im vierten Lauf zwar am Hintereingang des Restaurants hängen, war aber auch da gegenüber allen anderen Kandidaten bei weitem am nächsten am Ziel, und gewann so den Wettbewerb. Für einen Einstieg in die Robotik bieten sich Systeme wie Lego Mindstorms oder andere Roboterbaukästen an, aber auch Programmierspiele, wie sie Michael auch auf der GPN angeboten hat: https://github.com/Programmierspiele.

Tonight's podcast is on Global Payments (GPN) a stock that I first discussed on my blog in September, 2005. The company recently had an upgrade, announced an acquisition, and the stock price moved higher. I review the latest quarter results, Morningstar.com "5-Yr" financials, and a chart from StockCharts.com.
