Overview

Christopher J. Nassetta, President & Chief Executive Officer of Hilton,
said, “We are happy to report a good start to the year with first
quarter results that exceeded the high end of guidance for Adjusted
EBITDA and diluted EPS, adjusted for special items. We continued to
drive impressive market share gains across all brand segments and
regions during the first quarter, further increasing our
industry-leading RevPAR index premium. We were also excited to launch
our newest brand, Signia Hilton. We expect this dynamic and innovative
brand to change the meetings and events space and enable us to better
serve our guests and owners.”

For the three months ended March 31, 2019, system-wide comparable RevPAR
grew 1.8 percent, driven by increases in both ADR and occupancy.
Management and franchise fee revenues increased 12 percent during the
three months ended March 31, 2019 as a result of RevPAR growth of 1.7
percent at comparable managed and franchised hotels, increased licensing
and other fees and the addition of new properties to Hilton’s portfolio.

For the three months ended March 31, 2019, diluted EPS was $0.54 and
diluted EPS, adjusted for special items, was $0.80 compared to $0.51 and
$0.69, respectively, for the three months ended March 31, 2018. Net
income and Adjusted EBITDA were $159 million and $499 million,
respectively, for the three months ended March 31, 2019, compared to
$163 million and $445 million, respectively, for the three months ended
March 31, 2018.

Adoption of New Accounting Standard

Advertisement

On January 1, 2019, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Update
(“ASU”) No. 2016-02 Leases (Topic 842) (“ASU 2016-02”),
which supersedes existing guidance on accounting for leases in Leases
(Topic 840)
and generally requires all leases, including operating
leases, to be recognized in the balance sheet of lessees as right-of-use
assets and lease liabilities. As permitted, the Company has applied this
ASU at the adoption date; therefore, the presentation of financial
information for all periods prior to January 1, 2019 remains unchanged
and in accordance with Leases (Topic 840). The provisions of ASU
2016-02 did not affect the Company’s cash flow or cash available for
capital return, and did not have a material impact on the Company’s
consolidated statement of operations. Refer to Hilton’s Quarterly Report
on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended March 31, 2019, which is
expected to be filed on or about the date of this press release, for
additional information on the effect of this ASU.

Gedeon Richter presents analysis on cannabis usage among patients with schizophrenia: a new medical solution to a severe issue might be available

Published

gedeon-richter-presents-analysis-on-cannabis-usage-among-patients-with-schizophrenia:-a-new-medical-solution-to-a-severe-issue-might-be-available

A novel psychiatric scale developed by colleagues of Gedeon Richter Plc. in collaboration with academia was also presented at the 37th ECNP conference

BUDAPEST, Hungary, Sept. 25, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — During the 37th Annual Meeting of the European College of Neuropsychopharmacology (ECNP), held between 21-24 September 2024, new analyses of cariprazine studies were presented by Gedeon Richter Plc. First of all, cariprazine seems to be an effective treatment option for patients with schizophrenia and comorbid cannabis use disorder, according to one of the five posters presented at the congress. Furthermore, during an industry sponsored session, a new transdiagnostic scale for quantifying and visualizing symptom severity of patients with different psychiatric conditions was also presented, that was developed by the medical team of Gedeon Richter Plc. and recognized professors.

Schizophrenia often co-occurs with cannabis use disorder however, available antipsychotic treatments frequently fail to address both disorders. In a scientific poster showcased by Gedeon Richter at ECNP in Milan, cariprazine was presented to be a potentially effective treatment option for patients with first-episode schizophrenia and comorbid cannabis use disorder according to the results of a 6-month observational study. Four other scientific posters were also presented at the congress by Gedeon Richter about the role of cariprazine in the treatment of schizophrenia such as the efficacy of cariprazine in patients who develop akathisia as a side effect or the impact of functioning on the risk of relapse in patients treated with cariprazine vs placebo. Cariprazine is a 3rd generation antipsychotic medication with a unique receptor profile and proven efficacy in schizophrenia, including negative symptoms.

Lacking biomarkers in psychiatry calls for valid and reliable assessments of psychopathology across mental disorders that are easy to use, bridge research and clinical care, and that can capture clinician and patient perspectives. Recognizing this problem, the Gedeon Richter medical team together with experienced psychiatric professors developed a scale to handle this challenge. Using this new transdiagnostic scale called the Transdiagnostic Global Impression – Psychopathology (TGI-P) scale could help CNS professionals and psychologists to quickly assess and visualize symptoms in several psychiatric conditions. During an industry sponsored session, the details and the usability of the tool were shown to the audience.

The demand for bioplastic as an alternative increase as Europe has strict regulations against plastic usage which aims to reduce the utilization of single use-plastic to prevent environmental hazards, especially, in marine environment and human health. In addition, European Union also aims at promoting circular economy and innovative sustainable packaging solutions with specific targets which are 77% separate collection target for plastic bottles by 2025 and will be increased to 90% by 2029. Furthermore, 25% of recycled plastic will be incorporated in PET beverage bottles from 2025 and will be increased by 30% in all plastic beverage bottles from 2030.

  • In January 2024, European retailers were relived to watch the inflation slow down as it had decreased the consumer rate by 0.1%. Despite the increasing rates and fleeting number of consumers, shopkeepers were committed to the sustainable drive. The UK consumer survey stated that 62% believed that high prices are pulling them back from being sustainable and 52% said that sustainable alternatives should have affordable prices.

North America is a steady region for the bioplastic packaging market due to its sustainable packaging demand which is also the growing consumer requirement. The impact of conventional plastic adds to the ocean litter hazard and as an alternative to reduce carbon print, sustainable solutions are being adopted.

The policy of Government of India (GOI) was changed to promote the development of biodegradable plastic products instead of single-use plastic.

The method used for testing substances should be able to demonstrate biodegradability as per national and international standards and should also be interim approved and receive provisional certification of biodegradability. China having a large industrial production had signed the Paris agreement to reduce carbon footprint and oil dependency as well.

Although the National Development and Reform Commission and Ministry of Ecology and Environment had plans to reduce plastic garbage, the limited infrastructure for recycling and manufacturing biodegradable plastic came as a challenge. The Chinese Government had implemented ban on plastic recycled and prohibition of non-biodegradable single-use plastic.

  • In February 2024, Balrampur Chini Mills Limited (BCML), which is a leading integrated sugar mill Kolkata-based company had announced a project with integration of ₹2,000 crore and it was going be the first industrial bioplastic plant in India. The company also stated that it had well-aligned sustainable goals to combat the climate change.  

Driver

Government regulations drive the bioplastic packaging market

The major driving factor is the environmental regulations due to increasing plastic waste production which is a problem for the eco-system. The growing concern for climate change, increasing plastic pollution and landfill waste has led to the utilization of bioplastic packaging which is reliable and bio-degradable. The government policies promote the use of biodegradable and bioplastic packaging as it reduces the use of plastic and also its generation.
