Air Products 换上对的 CEO，利润率向行业龙头看齐

阿克曼认为 2014 年 7 月上任的 Seifi Ghasemi 是改造 Air Products 的理想人选。Seifi 的目标是把息税前利润率从约 16% 提到约 22.5%，与行业龙头普莱克斯相当，一半靠压缩管理费用，一半靠提升生产效率。上任头两个季度每股收益分别增长 13% 和 16%，营业利润率与普莱克斯的差距已缩小 150 个基点。

We believe that Seifi is the ideal leader to transform Air Products, and we applaud the Air Products Board for hiring Seifi as Chairman/CEO and supporting him in his efforts to improve the company.
