HJBC Nestlé ( NSRGY ) reported sales of CHF21.3B for Q1 2026, reflecting a 5.7% decline on a reported basis due largely to foreign exchange headwinds. By geography, the Americas generated CHF9.1B in sales, followed by Asia, Oceania & Africa at CHF5.2B and Europe at CHF4.6B, with additional contributions from Nespresso (CHF 1.6B) and Waters & Premium Beverages. Across categories, coffee remained the standout performer, posting CHF6B in sales with 9.3% organic growth, supported by strong volume and pricing gains. Coffee and snacks are among Nestlé’s ( NSRGY ) fastest‑growing categories, with coffee‑driven beverage volumes and premium offerings helping to cushion softer performance in infant nutrition. The infant‑formula recall knocked Nestlé’s overall organic‑growth and real‑internal‑growth metrics by roughly –90 basis points, but the company says the product‑availability situation has now normalized.

In this article WDS BP Follow your favorite stocks CREATE FREE ACCOUNT LONDON — British energy major BP suffered a shareholder revolt at its annual general meeting on Thursday, following a tense clash with investors over corporate governance and climate transparency. BP failed to get majority shareholder approval on two highly anticipated motions, which would have permitted online-only AGMs and retired two company-specific climate disclosure obligations. Each resolution required a 75% vote in favor to pass. A majority of 81.8% voted in favor of electing Albert Manifold as chair, a resolution that has been in sharp focus following the board's move to block a proposal put forward by Dutch activist group Follow This. Board members require 50% of the vote to be elected, and they typically receive close to 100% support. Some activist investors had said even a 5% vote against Manifold, who has only been in post as chair-elect since September, would represent a severe reprimand, particularly after a historic 24% vote against outgoing chair Helge Lund last year. Ahead of the AGM at its Sunbury-on-Thames hub in Surrey, BP's board blocked a motion tabled by Follow This that would have required the company to share plans on creating value for shareholders under future scenarios of falling oil and gas demand . The contentious decision had raised eyebrows among some investors. Two influential proxy advisers, Glass Lewis and ISS, and one of Europe's biggest asset managers, Legal & General Investment Management, had recommended shareholders vote against BP's wishes. Top investors, such as Norway's mega oil fund Norges Bank Investment Management (NBIM), had thrown their weight behind BP's management, along with several other board proposals. BP had said its board, having taken legal advice, concluded that the Follow This proposal was not valid and would have been ineffective were it to have passed at the AGM. The energy major is currently in the process of pivoting back to its core...

Stalwart served Lancashire club from 1970 until 2004 As caretaker, helped saved Rovers from relegation in 1997 Tributes have been paid to “Mr Blackburn Rovers” Tony Parkes after his death at the age of 76. The former player and coach was one of the longest-serving employees in the club’s history, with his association beginning with his £5,000 move from Buxton in 1970 and concluding in 2004. “Blackburn Rovers are devastated to learn of the passing of Tony Parkes. A true club legend, often referred to as ‘Mr Blackburn Rovers’,” said a club statement. “Everyone at Blackburn Rovers sends their deepest heartfelt condolences to Tony’s daughter Natalie and all his family and friends at this incredibly sad time.” Continue reading...

janiecbros/E+ via Getty Images Thermo Fisher Scientific ( TMO ) fell in premarket trading on Thursday even after posting better-than-expected Q1 2026 results. While Thermo Fisher's Q1 revenue of $11.0 billion beat consensus by $150 million on ~6% year-over-year growth, largely lifted by the Life Sciences Solutions segment, its non-GAAP organic revenue growth, which strips out acquisitions and currency effects, reached only 1% year-over-year, missing the 1.2% analyst estimate and hinting at softer core demand than the headline figure suggests. That mix of strengths and soft spots is reflected in TMO's position on this Quant Rankings list, sixth out of ten, with a Hold rating of 3.37, despite being the stock with the biggest market cap in the life sciences tools and services space. With five peers ranked above it, TMO's quant profile signals that the market sees better near-term risk/reward elsewhere in the sector, even before factoring in Thursday's premarket pressure. Topping the list is Mettler-Toledo International ( MTD ) with a Buy rating of 4.38, followed by Sotera Health ( SHC ) and Adaptive Biotechnologies ( ADPT ) at 4.13 and 4.03 respectively. Waters Corporation ( WAT ) and 10x Genomics ( TXG ) round out the Buy-rated names at 3.69 and 3.54. Below TMO, West Pharmaceutical Services ( WST ), Illumina ( ILMN ), Revvity ( RVTY ), and Medpace Holdings ( MEDP ) all carry Hold ratings between 3.16 and 3.23. Seeking Alpha’s Quant Rating system grades stocks based on their relative performance on various critical quantitative measures, including valuation, growth, stock momentum, and profitability. Quant Ratings are given on a scale from 1 to 5, with any rating of 3.5 or above considered a bullish rating and any rating of 2.5 or below considered a bearish rating.

huettenhoelscher/iStock Editorial via Getty Images European jet maker Airbus ( EADSF )( EADSY ) seemingly was positioned to benefit substantially from the crisis that unfolded at its competitor Boeing since 2018. However, what we have seen is that Airbus had an extremely difficult time hiking production to its desired production rates as supply chains have been in a challenging spot coming out of the pandemic, and the issues with the GTF engines affecting the A320neo and A220 have not made things easier for the European jet maker. Airbus has a backlog of over 9,000 airplanes, so collecting orders has not been the problem; delivering those airplanes has been. That makes it interesting to assess the company’s monthly deliveries and orders. In this report, I analyze the airplane orders and deliveries for March 2026. Based on a single month, no conclusions can be drawn, but looking at orders and deliveries month by month and in the year-to-date frame provides a good view of consistency in deliveries, as we are not so much worried about orders for the foreseeable future. Airbus Order Inflow Surges With Over 330 New Orders For this analysis, I'm using a data visualization and intelligence tool developed by The Aerospace Forum , aiming to make the complexities of the commercial airplane manufacturing industry more understandable. Airbus orders and deliveries in March (The Aerospace Forum) In March, Airbus booked a total of 331 orders valued at $23.2 billion. Single-aisle orders accounted for 85% of all orders with 9% of the orders for wide-body airplanes and the remaining 6% attributed to freighter orders. Delta Air Lines ordered 34 A321neo aircraft and additionally ordered 16 A330-900 aircraft and 15 A350-900 aircraft. NAS Aviation Services ordered 23 A320neo aircraft and 77 A321neo aircraft. Juneyao Air ordered 13 A320neo aircraft and 12 A321neo aircraft. China Eastern Airlines ordered 18 A320neo aircraft and 83 A321neo aircraft. Atlas Air ordered 20 A350F aircraft. Undi...

Alexyz3d/iStock via Getty Images Kraken Robotics Inc. ( KRKNF ) has remained on my watchlist since I reviewed the stock back in February. I really like the market the company is going after, UUVs and AUVs are looking at strong growth going forward. I think the current situation in the world only drives that need and demand more now than ever. I don’t think that the demand trend is changing, more likely accelerating. I also really like that the company manufactures its products. It provides them more of a moat and also much better margins. Despite the positives, I rated the stock a hold at that time and planned to look for dips to buy the stock, as I saw the future potential baked into the stock price. Since that time a lot has changed for the company. First Epic Furry happened which really showed the need and I think will accelerate demand in the UUV and AUV market. It reported a bad Q4 but followed it up with strong guidance for 2026. It also made a major acquisition, adding Covelya to its operations. This bolsters the technology and capabilities of the company. The complementary products will allow the company to target a larger market and cross sell among its customer base. This will also add significant revenue and EBITDA for the company. The company is stepping up in scale with guidance and through acquisition. The company will be looking to increase revenue by over 250% in 2026. Despite this the company trades at the same value as when I reviewed the stock 3 months ago. I do not think the company should be valued at the same amount at this point in time. These changes have made the company more valuable. I do not think the acquisition has been fully baked into the current valuation. Financials The company reported year end results and they were not good. Revenues for the year were $102.2 million. This is well below the guidance provided in Q3 of revenues of $120 million to $135 million for the year. It was a massive miss for the year. It also means growth for ...
