CFO说
CFO of PepsiCo, Inc., Hugh Johnston
Acquiring a business the size of Mondelēz Internati onal is “too risky” at this point, Hugh Johnston, chief financial officer of PepsiCo, Inc. He said. “We really do feel like the portfolio is working terrifi cally well, and bined with the producti vity initi ati ves … is creati ng a lot of value for shareholders. The idea of taking on an $80 billion acquisition, and going through all the risk of integrati on, and paying a premium for that business — I believe it would probably create value for Mondelēz shareholders, but I really think it’s too risky for PepsiCo shareholders.”
激进投资人纳尔逊·佩尔茨提议百事可乐公司要么进行业务拆分,要么收购亿滋国际,创建一个全球快餐食品公司,抛弃旗下表现不佳的饮料部门。百事可乐公司CFO Hugh Johnston回应称,在这个时间点上进行亿滋国际这种规模的收购是相当冒险的,“我们现在的饮料搭配零食是非常完美的组合,同时与生产力相结合,为股东创造了可观的价值。而800亿美元的收购要承担整合带来的所有风险并支付保险费用,我相信这有可能会给亿滋的股东带来价值,但对于百事的投资者来说太冒险。”
