Key attractive features of Eveready include: Eveready’s strong partnership with Eveready Battery Company USA governed by a technical services agreement between the Company and EBC that allows for transfer of technology between our two organisations as well as the provision of technical services. Eveready’s financial performance illustrated by a history of consistent profitability for over 30 years. Over the years, the Company has adapted its business model to respond to competition and various industry challenges and consequently diversified its income base and implemented operational cost controls that have seen it remain profitable. Eveready’s continuous enhancement of shareholder value through its dividend payment policy driven by the performance and investment requirements of the Company. Eveready’s established market leadership position. The Company’s ability to quickly respond to changing market dynamics has enabled it to capture and maintain significant market share in various market segments across the industry. With its strong heritage, the Company is well positioned to respond to and take advantage of key industry developments that will enable it to maintain its profitability and market leadership. Earnings sustainability will be driven by focusing on production efficiencies through continued implementation of cost cutting initiatives and developing product and market diversification opportunities.
