Pros

Swiss company with a high company governance profile. Products with extremely high technical quality. Decentralized management helps the company to have a faster decision model.

Cons

The company is in a change management process based on the possibility of being acquired by Saint Gobain (discussions ongoing in Switzerland Court). Besides this, the current economy environment in Brazil generates higher stress in local operations due to a lower sales volume and a low profitability.

Thank you for your feedback. As you mentioned we adopt a decentralized management structure, which we feel empowers local management teams to make strategic decisions based on their local markets. The overall goal of all of our Sika subsidiaries is to achieve the targets set out in our Strategy 2018, whilst being able to quickly adapt to the local environment. We continue to invest in the Latin America region and during the last financial year we saw a growth of 9.5%. Thank you to you and all of your colleagues who helped to make this possible.

Thank you for your review. As you mentioned, the ethos of our company is Building Trust and we foster trustful and respectful working relationships, avoiding exercising authority in purely formal ways. Our teams can enjoy working in close partnership with each other, and with our customers, suppliers and stakeholders.
