ANNUAL REPORT 2016 ANNUAL REPORT INTRODUCTION a Message from Our Executive Director and Board of Directors 2016 ANNUAL REPORT 2016 ANNUAL REPORT INTRODUCTION A MESSAGE FROM OUR EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR AND BOARD OF DIRECTORS Values are much more than words on our website. Values shape the commitment we make to the children and families who trust and depend upon Sarah Heinz House. They define who we are as an organization and reflect the professionalism of the staff and volunteers who serve the hundreds of youth coming through our doors each week. Kids 1st is our highest value. Their emotional and physical safety, learning and development and sheer enjoyment of their childhood and adolescent years is what matters most in all we do. Whether they’re engaged in afterschool and weekend programs or summer camp, our foremost responsibility is to provide experiences that let them know that the high expectations and standards we set for them represent the equally high level of respect and value in which we hold them. Sarah Heinz House is a community-sort of an extended family, for each youth. We know they do not fully leave behind the real world challenges or forget each frustration they encountered on any given day. But this extended family, comprised of friends, and peer and adult mentors offers a safe and caring environment to help set them aside or resolve them in a healthy and positive way. Kids 1st is what our parents, partners and donors expect. We are humbled by the respect and confidence that leads parents to entrust their children to us each day. We are grateful to all the individuals, companies and foundations who choose Sarah Heinz House as a trusted partner in fulfilling their goal of improving the lives and opportunities of our region’s youth. After reviewing this report we welcome your questions, your interest in forming a partnership or to discuss impactful ways to further invest your gifts of time, talent and funding. Thank you for your support and for all the good you do for Sarah Heinz House kids.

Cayce Clerk Dennis Perry, Plaintiff—Appellant, versus H. J. Heinz Company Brands, L.L.C.; Kraft Heinz Foods Company, Defendants—Appellees. Appeal from the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Louisiana USDC No. 2:19-CV-280 Before Owen, Chief Judge, and Graves and Ho, Circuit Judges. James E. Graves, Jr., Circuit Judge: Mr. Dennis Perry makes Metchup, which depending on the batch is a blend of either Walmart-brand mayonnaise and ketchup or Walmart-brand mustard and ketchup. Mr. Perry sells Metchup exclusively from the lobby of a nine-room motel adjacent to his used-car dealership in Lacombe, Louisiana. He has registered Metchup as an incontestable trademark. Though he had big plans for Metchup, sales have been slow. Since 2010, Mr. Perry has produced only 50 to 60 bottles of Metchup, which resulted in sales of around $170 and profits of around $50. He owns www.metchup.com but has never Case: 20-30418 Document: 00515817174 Page: 2 Date Filed: 04/12/2021 No. 20-30418 sold Metchup online. For better or worse, the market is not covered in Metchup. Along comes Heinz. It makes Mayochup, which is solely a blend of mayonnaise and ketchup. To promote Mayochup’s United States launch, Heinz held an online naming contest where fans proposed names. A fan submitted Metchup, and Heinz posted a mock-up bottle bearing the name Metchup on its website alongside mock-up bottles for the other proposed names.

  • Maybe Warren Buffett Agrees with Bill Gross on Financial Asphyxiation Article
    Article SNL Blogs Monday, August 17, 2015 2:18 PM ET Maybe Warren Buffett agrees with Bill Gross on financial asphyxiation By Jeff K. Davis Jeff Davis, CFA, is a veteran bank analyst and SNL Financial contributor. The views and opinions expressed in this piece are those of the author and do not necessarily represent the views of SNL or Mercer Capital, where he is the managing director of the financial institutions group. The financial press tracks Janus Capital Group Inc.'s star fixed-income portfolio manager Bill Gross closely. His Saigon-like helicopter roof departure from Pacific Investment Management Co. LLC (PIMCO) last year has been forgotten. His accomplishments as one of the best fixed-income investors the past four decades are more important than a short, messy chapter in his life. Many have one or two anyway. As a bond manager, Gross is dour compared to equity investors, who usually ask two questions: What's the upside and what's the margin of safety if I am wrong? Plus, equity investors cheer from the rafters for actions that are detrimental to corporate bond holders: buybacks, dividend recaps, debt-financed M&A and spinoffs of profitable units. For bond investors like Gross, what is bad for equities typically is good for bonds. A weaker economy can translate into rising bond prices and declining yields. Rising prices and coupon clipping can generate great total returns, except for our age when only the lower rungs of the high-yield market offer much coupon to clip. With commodity prices in a free fall and credit spreads beginning to widen, the markets' tone has been negative lately.

  • Five Alumni of H.J. Heinz Board of Directors Send Letter to Procter & Gamble Directors
    FIVE ALUMNI OF H.J. HEINZ BOARD OF DIRECTORS SEND LETTER TO PROCTER & GAMBLE DIRECTORS Describe How Nelson Peltz Won Them Over as a Heinz Director After a Hard-Fought Proxy Contest Underscore Nelson Peltz’s Long-Term Focus and Contributions Made to Heinz Board September 27, 2017—Five Alumni of the H.J. Heinz Company (“Heinz”) Board of Directors today sent a letter to Directors of The Procter & Gamble Company (NYSE: PG) (“P&G”), reflecting on their positive experience working with Nelson Peltz in the Heinz boardroom. Following Heinz’s hard-fought 2006 proxy contest against Trian Fund Management, L.P. (“Trian”), the Alumni of the Heinz Board found Nelson Peltz to be a valuable, constructive and collegial director with a focus on delivering long-term value to Heinz shareholders. The five signatories of the letter are former Heinz directors Charles E. Bunch, Thomas J. Usher, Dennis Reilley, John G. Drosdick and Dean R. O’Hare – all of whom were members of the Heinz Board for the entirety of Nelson Peltz’s tenure on the Board from 2006 through 2013. Dear Procter & Gamble Directors, In 2006, Nelson Peltz joined the Board of H.J. Heinz Company following a long and hard-fought proxy contest. Like you, many of us had feared that Nelson’s presence would disrupt the effectiveness of our Board process and derail the execution of our strategy. However, just the opposite proved true. The following are some reflections on our experience with Nelson as a Heinz Director: Nelson was a valued member of the Heinz board.
