    "post_text": "Today, we have announced our fiscal 26 full year results.\n \nSir Dave Lewis, Chief Executive Officer, commented: \"We are pleased with our progress in LAC, Europe and Africa. We are focused on recovering our competitiveness in NAM and we are working through the consequences of Government policy in Chinese white spirits.\n \nThe three priorities set out at the half year: i) Relevant brands in competitive category strategies ii) Customer, Customer, Customer and iii) A more agile and competitive operating framework, are serving us well and lay the foundation for the Capital Markets Day today.\n\nThe revised operating framework is being rolled out across Diageo and the changes are significant. In 2026 this change incurs a cost of $0.8 billion \n(c.70% of the total cost of the two year programme) with savings realised over 2 years starting in fiscal 27. These savings will allow us to invest in the \nturnaround without needing to reduce operating profit*.\n\nAs we close out the year I would like to put on record our appreciation for all Diageo colleagues and the way they have engaged with this change \nprogramme.\"\n \nYou can read more here: https://lnkd.in/egd9_MB9 \n \nDrink responsibly.
