We are at a critical stage in our journey for a successful 2018. We are tracking well on our path to deliver our
         promises in 2018 and have come a long way from our ‘rebirth’ in September 2017.

         We unveiled our new brand identity as a true symbol of our new values. Hummingbird truly symbolizes the
         personality of the new Diversey – agile, curious, restless. We  have completed our work around strategy
         development and have set out a clear path for our journey ahead. We have demonstrated resilience through this
         period and have not allowed our results to be compromised during this mega change. We should be proud of
         what we as a team have accomplished. I am !

         Our growth in the region has shown an improving curve with region averaging around 7% YTD and expecting to
         end by 8%. This is significant improvement over 2017. Well done.

         The year has so far seen unexpectedly steep inflation and slide of Asian currencies. As I write this note, the
         picture on currencies is looking worse than what we have seen so far. What does this mean for us – it means that
         we need to start taking action to protect our margins earned with hard work over the years. We should not allow
         headwinds to impact our winning story.

         As we get to the year end, it is time to stay focused on our objectives, stay the course and deliver the year end
         punch we have always done. Lets embrace our core values of Care, Own, Decide and Act at work and in our
         personal life…


         As we do all of the above, do not forget to have fun and enjoy with your colleagues, at work and home.

         Bye for now… Will connect again soon.
