L&#39;Air Liquide S.A (OTC: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/aiquy#OTC">AIQUY</a>) has initiated a new Group transformation initiative to foster agility and improve efficiency using its ADVANCE strategic plan for 2025, increased performance ambition and a record-high number of investment possibilities.
To complement this effort, the Group is announcing a number of organizational and governance reforms, which will take effect from Sep 1, 2024.
Air Liquide&#39;s strong business model and successful implementation of its ADVANCE strategic plan have put the company on solid footing.
Seizing these growing economic prospects, which contribute to addressing important global concerns such as industrial decarbonization or promoting the expansion of the electronics sector, would necessitate significant investment.
AIQUY will also need to simplify its internal organization in order to improve agility, accelerate decision-making and exploit the company&#39;s scale to gain a competitive edge.
This multi-year transformation initiative, which is part of Air Liquide&#39;s ADVANCE strategic plan and associated performance ambition, is intended to position the company for long-term success by boosting performance while improving how the Group adds value to its stakeholders.
Simplifying the organizational matrix is a crucial aspect of performance delivery. To that purpose, Air Liquide will execute a number of reforms, including removing organizational levels and adopting a streamlined structure comprising operations and functions that communicate directly.
Furthermore, a single global Group Industrial Direction will be established to better serve its diverse customer base by optimizing the Group&#39;s industrial processes, assuring the quality, dependability and efficiency of customers.
Shares of Air Liquide have lost 3.3% over the past year compared with a 10.3% decline of its industry.

Air Liquide's Transformation Plan to Drive Efficiency

As the corporate exodus from Russia faces increasing complications, multinational companies are finding themselves caught between a rock and a hard place. With the geopolitical situation intensifying, the business landscape for firms like Avon Products, Air Liquide (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AIQUY#OTC">AIQUY</a>), and Reckitt remains precarious and fraught with challenges.
What Happened: Companies including the Natura-owned cosmetics brand, the French industrial gas producer, and the UK consumer group have struggled to divest their Russian operations amidst a resurgence in consumer activity, the Financial<a href="https://www.ft.com/content/88b047e9-8cad-426a-b649-265ff6582db0"> </a>Times <a href="https://www.ft.com/content/88b047e9-8cad-426a-b649-265ff6582db0">reported</a> on Tuesday that over 2,100 multinational firms are still operating in Russia since the invasion of Ukraine in 2022.
While around 1,600 international companies have either left or reduced their presence, many remain due to the hurdles of finding suitable buyers that meet both the sellers&#8217; criteria and Moscow&#8217;s approval, all while navigating Western sanctions. Moscow&#8217;s increased exit costs, including a 50% discount on assets sold to Russian entities and a 15% exit tax, have compounded the issue.
Air Liquide faced government obstacles in selling its Russian business, and Avon opted against proceeding with offers for its Russian division, prioritizing its global commitment to women. Reckitt&#8216;s CEO Kris Licht has highlighted the complexities, suggesting a shift from a binary approach to a nuanced one.

Other companies, like Carlsberg and Danone, have encountered asset seizures and legal issues after announcing their exits. Conversely, PepsiCo (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PEP#NASDAQ">PEP</a>) maintains a robust dairy operation in Russia, and Coca-Cola Hellenic has seen success with Dobry Cola. Companies such as Mondelez, Unilever, Nestlé, and Philip Morris have been forthright about their decision to stay, in contrast to others like Polish retailer LPP, which has been criticized for its continued sales in Russia.
Why It Matters: The ongoing presence of Western firms in Russia is underpinned by a series of escalating measures by the Russian government. In May, President Vladimir Putin <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/24/05/39029454/putin-takes-steps-to-seize-property-owned-by-u-s-citizens-and-companies">announced steps to seize properties</a> owned by U.S. citizens and companies, a move seen as retaliation against potential seizures of Russian assets abroad.
Earlier, Russia had <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/05/38988116/russia-gears-up-to-confiscate-us-assets-in-response-to-potential-seizure-of-its-frozen-assets">prepared to confiscate U.S. assets</a> in response to the potential seizure of its frozen assets, signaling a tit-for-tat approach to Western sanctions. These developments follow the March analysis that U.S. sanctions, while impactful, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/03/37578957/us-sanctions-fall-short-in-ending-ukraine-war-experts-suggest-theres-still-more-the-west-can-do-to-p">had fallen short in ending the Ukraine war</a>, suggesting that more could be done to pressure Russia.

To Leave Or Not To Leave Russia? Western Firms Grapple With Dilemma Amid Rising Costs And Bureaucratic Hurdles

In a recent report, global wealth manager UBS identified the sectors likely to drive the next wave of technological innovation and the stocks that stand to benefit.
What Happened: UBS has pinpointed artificial intelligence (AI), cybersecurity, health tech, Greentech, and fintech as the sectors that will produce the &#8220;next big thing&#8221; in tech. The bank has selected 29 companies that are expected to experience &#8220;superior&#8221; earnings growth compared to the market, driven by &#8220;positive, durable structural trends,&#8221; CNBC <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2024/03/18/next-big-thing-in-tech-ubs-names-stocks-to-own-for-the-longer-term.html">reported</a> on Sunday.
"Collectively, we see industry leaders for 2030 emerging from these sectors," said UBS in a March 14 report.&nbsp;
Among the companies on UBS&#8217; list are:
<ul>
<li>McKesson Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MCK#NYSE">MCK</a>): The company&#8217;s expansion into data-driven services across the U.S. healthcare value chain will cause UBS to be bullish in the future.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Baidu (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BIDU#NASDAQ">BIDU</a>): UBS sees Baidu&#8217;s expertise in AI and machine learning, particularly in its non-advertising businesses like autonomous driving and cloud, as potential long-term growth drivers.</li>
<li>Stryker (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SYK#NYSE">SYK</a>): UBS notes Stryker&#8217;s growth in its core orthopedic markets, particularly in robotic surgery, as a strong indicator of future performance.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>ASML Holding (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ASML#NASDAQ">ASML</a>): UBS predicts the Dutch semiconductor firm will outgrow its peers due to the continued rise in lithography capital expenditure spending.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Broadcom (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AVGO#NASDAQ">AVGO</a>): UBS highlights Broadcom&#8217;s market-leading position in semiconductor design and its potential to tap into the structural demand for 5G-related services, data center storage, and industrial applications.</li>
</ul>

Other companies on the list include Intercontinental Exchange (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ICE#NYSE">ICE</a>), Mastercard Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MA#NYSE">MA</a>), Air Liquide (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AIQUY#OTC">AIQUY</a>), Engie (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ENGIY#OTC">ENGIY</a>), Wacker Chemie (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WKCMY#OTC">WKCMY</a>), ServiceNow (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NOW#NYSE">NOW</a>), and Taiwan Semiconductor (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSM#NYSE">TSM</a>).
Why It Matters: The UBS report aligns with recent developments in the tech industry. For example, AI has been a hot topic, with experts like Jim Cramer expressing excitement about the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/03/37769867/jim-cramer-pumped-up-about-nvidia-ceo-jensen-huangs-gtc-2024-speech-when-our-modern-day-davinci-">potential of AI</a> in Nvidia&#8217;s future. 
However, other industry voices, such as Fidelity International, have suggested that investors look <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/03/37724250/nvidia-isnt-the-only-ai-contender-fidelity-suggests-investors-look-beyond-hot-ai-stocks-names-th">beyond the obvious choices</a>, like Nvidia, for AI investments. 
Despite this, Glen Kacher of Light Street Capital has advised that it <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/03/37724593/way-too-early-expert-warns-as-investors-trading-out-of-nvidia-amd-microsoft-and-other-ai-stocks">may be too early to exit</a> the semiconductor market, suggesting that we are still at the beginning of the investment cycle for building an AI infrastructure. 
This indicates that the tech sectors identified by UBS may indeed be the next big thing, with AI and semiconductors playing a crucial role.

Which Stocks Will Dominate The Future Of Tech? UBS Shares Its Top Picks In AI, Healthtech, Greentech, And Fintech

Total Helium (OTCQB: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ttlhf#OTCQB">TTLHF</a>) is positioning itself to lead North America&rsquo;s transition to independence in helium. This natural, non-renewable gas is essential for a range of industrial, medical and technological products, including fiber optics, MRI machines and semiconductors. Total Helium <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/m-a/23/05/32210138/total-helium-otc-ttlhf-completes-joint-venture-agreement-with-shares-plus-cash-and-will-develop-ariz">owns a 50% share</a> of the Pinta South field as part of its joint venture in a major helium field in the Holbrook Basin, Arizona.&nbsp;
Total Helium currently has 15 wells drilled so far in the Pinta South field.&nbsp; The first two operating wells have a helium concentration of 8.11% and 8.22% respectively, significantly higher than the usual <a href="https://www.gljpc.com/blog/updated-helium-exploration-rise#:~:text=In%20air%2C%20the%20concentration%20of,or%20very%20low%20helium%20concentration.">concentration of .5%</a>. Five other wells were recently brought into production, while the other eight are in various stages of completion and pipeline connection.
Total Helium has partnered with Pinta South Operating Company (PSOC) to advance the project. PSOC has a team with expert experience in the natural resources industry, including the driller and entrepreneur Brad Butler who has managed multiple helium projects in both Colorado and Arizona. PSOC also owns essential hardware like a drilling rig and cementing and trenching equipment, meaning the project can be handled fully in-house without outsourcing to costly contractors.&nbsp;
<h2>Pinta South Project Size</h2>
The size of this project, which Total Helium secured for only $12 million, means the company can expand its operations as the drilling advances. It has access to a 27,000-acre field. There is <a href="https://www.totalhelium.com/operations-projects/arizona/">potential for 300 wells at the project</a>, and the drilling and extraction only cost $220,000 per well.
Total Helium has demonstrated that the field&rsquo;s composition makes it highly favorable for helium extraction. Its various formations holding world-class helium reserves, which consist of between 5-8% helium content, are part of easily accessible terrain &ndash; making drilling operations cost-effective. The main by-product of the field is nitrogen, which enables efficient and rapid processing, as the nitrogen can be safely vented into the atmosphere with no harm to the environment.&nbsp;
The company is also in partnership with Linde PLC (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/lin#NYSE">LIN</a>) to fund the pipeline extension and to purchase helium from the project&rsquo;s first 10 wells. Linde is a leading chemical company with a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/LIN">market cap of $180 billion</a> as of this writing, involved in both industrial gas as well as chemical manufacturing.
<a href="https://www.gasworld.com/story/exclusive-total-heliums-mission-to-head-the-pack-in-helium-production/2123667.article/">This project is helping Total Helium become established</a> as a pivotal player in the North American helium market. &ldquo;This acquisition vaults Total Helium to the head of the pack in terms of actual helium production,&rdquo; said Robert Price, CEO of Total Helium.&nbsp;&nbsp;
<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/penny-stocks/23/05/32505402/the-worlds-supplies-of-the-non-renewable-resource-helium-are-running-out-total-helium-otcqb-">Disruptions to helium&rsquo;s international supply</a> have already caused shortages of helium in the US, indicating the importance of this project for giving America helium independence. Globally, the market for helium was worth <a href="https://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/helium-market-overview--forecasted-market-size-and-growth-rate-major-drivers-and-trends-and-top-growth-opportunities-by-the-business-research-company-301752617.html#:~:text=LONDON%2C%20Feb.,)%20of%20more%20than%2012%25.">$4.4 billion in 2022</a>. It is predicted to reach $6.4 billion by 2027 growing at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of more than 6% from 2022 to 2027.&nbsp;
Companies involved in helium exploration and production include Air Liquide (OTC: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/aiquy#OTC">AIQUY</a>) &nbsp;and Air Products &amp; Chemicals Inc. (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/apd#NYSE">APD</a>).

Cummins Inc&nbsp;(NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/cmi#NYSE">CMI</a>), which owns 81% of Hydrogenics Corporation, has acquired&nbsp;L&#39;Air Liquide SA&#39;s (OTC: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/aiquy#OTC">AIQUY</a>) remaining 19% interest, assuming full ownership of key fuel cell and electrolyzer technologies.

Thirty-four investors managing more than $7 trillion in assets have warned 17 of Europe&#39;s most prominent companies that they could challenge board directors over their accounting of climate risks.
The move is the latest push by investors to pressure companies and their auditors, charging them with not moving fast enough to adapt to the transition to a low-carbon economy or being clear enough about the potential impacts.
In letters sent between December and February and seen by Reuters, the investors told the companies their accounts did not reflect the fallout from climate change on their assets and liabilities.
Landell-Mills said the latest annual reports would influence votes. Sarasin had decided to&nbsp;<a class="editor-rtfLink" href="https://sarasinandpartners.com/stewardship-post/riotinto-voting-for-net-zero-accounting" style="color:#4a6ee0; background:transparent; margin-top:0pt; margin-bottom:0pt" target="_blank">vote against</a>&nbsp;the financial statement and auditor at&nbsp;Rio Tinto plc&#39;s&nbsp;(NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/rio#NYSE">RIO</a>) AGM.

Air Liquide&nbsp;(OTC: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/aiquy#OTC">AIQUY</a>) and Saint Gobain said they were liaising with the IIGCC, a European membership body for investors collaborating on climate change. They said climate risks were factored into their accounts.&nbsp;
Mercedes Benz Group&nbsp;(OTC:&nbsp;<a class="editor-rtfLink" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/dmlry#OTC" style="color:#4a6ee0; background:transparent; margin-top:0pt; margin-bottom:0pt" target="_blank">DMLRY</a>) said it was in a &quot;constant and constructive&quot; dialogue with the investors and would update its sustainability strategy on April 11.&nbsp;Equinor ASA&nbsp;(NYSE:&nbsp;<a class="editor-rtfLink" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/eqnr#NYSE" style="color:#4a6ee0; background:transparent; margin-top:0pt; margin-bottom:0pt" target="_blank">EQNR</a>) referred to its energy transition plan as being on a Paris-aligned pathway.

Investors Write To 17 European Companies In Campaign For Climate Goal-Aligned Accounts: Reuters

Pfizer Inc.&#39;s (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/pfe#NYSE">PFE</a>) coronavirus vaccine candidate may have turned in <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/biotech/20/11/18271410/pfizer-biontechs-covid-19-vaccine-is-90-effective-eua-filing-likely-by-late-november"> strong efficacy results</a>, but the logistics it requires could impact the vaccine&#39;s eventual uptake.&nbsp;
Opportunity In Adversity: The mRNA vaccine jointly developed by Pfizer and BioNTech SE &ndash; ADR (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/bntx#NASDAQ">BNTX</a>) <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/20/09/17550596/7-reasons-why-a-coronavirus-vaccine-may-not-work-the-way-you-hope">requires </a> a storage temperature of negative 70 degrees Celsius.
This poses logistics challenges, especially in poorer nations that&nbsp;do not have the infrastructure or cold chain in place to handle the vaccine.
This hurdle is likely to turn out to be an opportunity for companies that operate along the supply chain.
Freezer Box Manufacturers: Companies such as Carrier Global Corp (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/carr#NYSE">CARR</a>) and Trane Technologies PLC (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/tt#NYSE">TT</a>) are supply chain plays that stand to benefit from vaccine approval.
Trane Tech&#39;s Thermo King brand provides intelligent end-to-end temperature-controlled cold chain solution for vaccine shipments. In late September, the company launched cold storage solutions to support COVID-19 vaccine distribution.
&quot;Considering the urgent, global need for a COVID-19 vaccine, the world can&#39;t afford breaks in the cold chain,&quot; said Dave Regnery, COO of Trane Technologies.
&quot;Our new Cold Storage Solutions can maintain temperatures of -70 degrees Celsius for an extended period of time, can be leveraged to help reduce degradation of a vaccination, and most importantly, could prevent vaccine &lsquo;deserts&#39; or lack of accessibility.&quot;
