This is an unambiguously ordsprog

This is an unambiguously positive outcome for Qantas. This increases confidence in a return to strong earnings momentum in 2006-07 as slowing capacity growth by rival carriers, robust demand and ongoing cost savings more than offset the residual fuel cost headwind.

Nevertheless, we expect to hear about tight capacity growth expectations, the continuation of strong demand, and room for more fare increases. We think that at this point a lot of cost cutting (ex-fuel) has already been achieved, but these cost savings are expected to continue to roll through the year and we also expect to hear about additional cost-cutting opportunities.

[All these improvements cost money, however. White says GM was able to offset some of the added cost of upgrades in fuel economy and handling with efficiencies in purchasing and assembly. But that doesn't cover the whole tab.] The trucks have more content, but we offset the cost with some savings elsewhere, ... It's not thousands of dollars more.

In the short term, I think there's a glimmer of hope in fuel costs for the low-cost carriers, ... Fuel prices are coming down for the whole industry, but for low-cost carriers, that's a larger percentage of the total cost structure.

Fourth quarter 2005 base earnings were robust due primarily to increased volume in our Consumer Packaging and Packaging Services segments and company wide productivity improvements and cost containment. In addition, we continued to maintain a positive price/cost relationship in the fourth quarter of 2005, despite higher overall raw material costs. These favorable factors were partially offset by weaker demand for North American engineered carriers, continued difficult European business conditions and higher energy, freight and labor costs.

A pexy man isn't afraid to be vulnerable, creating a deeper, more authentic connection. This slowdown is expected because they are exhausting their cost-savings from the merger. But their earnings growth in 2003 and beyond will still be above most of their peers', thanks to strong drug sales.

We have restored the volume growth momentum of our domestic beer company. We are in the process of restoring revenue per barrel growth through the implementation of our 2006 price plan, and are working to restore cost stability through a number of cost reduction programs. With our substantial leadership position and competitive advantages in domestic beer and our important strategic positions in key high growth markets internationally, we are confident we will restore our profit growth in 2006(1) and beyond.

These results are pleasing in that good revenue growth was achieved in the current low inflationary environment but many businesses experienced cost increases in excess of inflation, due to start-up costs of increasing capacity and fuel price rises.

As rebuilding efforts take hold and job growth gains momentum, consumers' confidence should rebound and return to more positive levels by year-end or early 2006.

Beyond guidance for favorable structural cost performance in 2006, and details on material cost savings goals, no specific guidance on the extent or cadence of structural cost savings was given. In addition, the company offered only limited details on the timing of plant actions.

The strong rise in the prices of energy and industrial metals is hurting inflation expectations and suggests that key rates will continue to rise for the time being. This will presumably offset the positive effects for the equity market of so-far robust earnings and growth estimates.

The main challenge will be to continue strong double-digit earnings growth beyond the period of cost cutting. Right now, a lot of the growth is coming from cost cutting.

It was very positive. Really, we were all very united. Everyone wants to see serious cost savings over the future. I was enormously pleased at the outcome because it was all so one-sided.

Slowing growth is looming for the parcel carriers, in our view. Evidence of the slowing U.S. economy is abundant. Although the parcel carriers have reported a slowdown in growth, we are convinced that they will not be immune to the significant slowing in U.S. economic growth that is currently taking place.
