"Our Investor Day will provide a comprehensive view of our roadmap for transitioning embecta to growth. We look forward to sharing how we are positioning embecta for long-term success in an evolving healthcare landscape," said Dev Kurdikar, President and Chief Executive Officer. "Today, we reiterate our commitment to maintaining our leadership in insulin injection while outlining our long term vision to transform embecta into a more broad-based medical supplies company, paving the way toward a life unlimited for all."
Strategic Prioritiesembecta's core insulin injection business has long provided a stable, recurring, and geographically diversified revenue base with an attractive margin profile. Following a successful three-year effort to establish embecta as an independent, standalone organization, the Company is currently focused on three strategic priorities aimed at positioning embecta for sustainable, long-term success:
Strengthening the core business, which includes executing a seamless brand transition to ensure embecta's identity resonates globally while maintaining the trust of customers. At the same time, the company is continuing to identify opportunities within its core portfolio that bolster its leadership position in injection devices.
Expanding the Company's product portfolio through the introduction of products that leverage embecta's expertise in high-volume manufacturing and the strength of its global commercial channel.
Increasing financial flexibility by generating cost savings through operational efficiencies and prioritizing debt reduction, thereby enhancing the Company's financial agility and ability to make future investments.

Long Range Financial Plan embecta today announced its long range financial plan for fiscal 2025 through fiscal 2028.
Over this period, the Company expects to:
Maintain a flattish constant currency revenue CAGR
Achieve an adjusted operating margin of approximately 28% to 30%
Generate approximately $600 million of cumulative free cash flow(1)
Repay between $450 million and $500 million of debt
We are unable to present a quantitative reconciliation of our expected adjusted gross margin, expected adjusted operating margin, expected adjusted earnings per diluted share, expected adjusted EBITDA margin, expected constant currency revenue CAGR (for the LRP), and expected cumulative free cash flow as we are unable to predict with reasonable certainty, and without unreasonable effort the impact and timing of any one-time items. The financial impact of these one-time items is uncertain and is dependent on various factors, including timing, and could be material to our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.

High Yield and Low Stress: 2 Dividend ETFs That Are Built for Passive Income
Key Points Statistical evidence supports the idea that these two ETFs can simultaneously grow capital and generate income. Maximum monthly drawdowns are less than the benchmark's performance, and so is the risk as defined by standard deviation. These ETFs do relatively best when benchmark indexes are highly volatile but still make money in bull markets. 10 stocks we like better than JPMorgan Equity Premium Income ETF › The JPMorgan Equity Premium Income ETF (NYSEMKT: JEPI) and JPMorgan Nasdaq Equity Premium Income ETF (NASDAQ: JEPQ) have garnered significant investor attention, in part due to their trailing-12-month dividend yields of 8.2% and 11.2%, respectively. Moreover, they offer monthly income, making them a favorite among passive income investors. As such, it would be interesting to share some modeling of their performance to see if they do offer investors a way to a relatively low-volatility strategy that practically guarantees a monthly income. (Keep in mind dividends can always be cut.) Introducing two JPMorgan ETFs The first thing to understand about these two exchange-traded funds is that they are not tailored to invest in dividend stocks. Instead, they both follow the same strategy of investing up to 80% of net assets in equities (stocks), with the only difference being that the Equity Premium ETF focuses on S&P 500 stocks while the Nasdaq Equity Premium ETF focuses on stocks in the Nasdaq-100. As noted above, the stocks are not explicitly selected for their dividend yield, an essential point because high-yield equity-focused ETFs often involve concentrating holdings in sectors with high yields. The remaining net assets, up to 20%, are invested in equity-linked notes (ELNs) that follow a strategy of selling call options on the indexes that the two ETFs benchmark -- S&P 500 and Nasdaq-100, respectively. A call option is the right to buy shares of the index at a specified price (the strike price) and is bought by bullish investors. The seller of the call options (in this case the ETF) receives a premium from the buyer. However, if the index increases significantly, the option is exercised, and the ELN typically incurs a loss. Conversely, when the index experiences a small gain, stays flat, or loses value, the option isn't exercised. The idea is that an anticipated net profit in premiums collected from the ELNs, combined with some dividend income from stock holdings, will generate sufficient income for distributions to be paid to shareholders under any condition, particularly in the event of a substantial increase in the index. And note that the upside is limited (gains less than the market), but the downside is also restricted. This table lays out how the portions of the ETFs will perform based on how the underlying index performs in a month. Monthly Index Performance Strong Gain Moderate Gain Moderate Loss Strong Loss Equities (At least 80% of the ETF assets) Strong Gain Gain Loss Strong Loss ELNs (Up to 20% of the ETF's assets) Loss Profit Profit Profit Overall Gain, but less than the market Gain, but less than the market Slight profit/slight loss Loss, but less than the market Author's analysis. What the ETFs need to do to demonstrate they work Before I throw charts at you, it's worth noting that the proof of the strategy working includes: The ETF should have a lower volatility than the index (measured here by the standard deviation of monthly returns). The ETFs should have relatively low maximum monthly drawdowns because passive investors usually do not want to lose a significant amount in any one month. The strategy should demonstrate a high coefficient of determination, or R^2, indicating that the independent variable (in this case, the benchmark index) is primarily responsible for determining the outcome. Performance consistent with the outcomes outlined in the table above. That said, here are the charts comparing the monthly index performance to the ETF's performance. Both sets of data include reinvestment of dividends. First, here's the JPMorgan Equity Premium Income ETF. And now the JPMorgan Nasdaq Equity Premium Income ETF. A few conclusions can be drawn from the data, along with some additional calculations. The monthly standard deviation of the S&P 500 over the period is 4.7%, compared to 3.1% for JEPI, indicating lower volatility returns. The monthly standard deviation of the Nasdaq-100 over the period is 5.7%, compared to 4.2% for JEPQ, indicating lower volatility returns. Both ETFs exhibit high R^2 values, indicating a consistency of outcome from the strategy. The three most significant monthly drawdowns for JEPI are -6.4%, -4.2%, and -4.1%. The three most significant monthly drawdowns for JEPQ are -8.7%, -6.8%, and -6.6%. In general, the strategy is effective, generating a collection of positive returns when the indices report moderate gains and losses. The downside is limited compared to the index when the market declines significantly, and the upside is limited when the indexes perform well. What it means to passive investors Both indices have performed very well over the periods, with an average monthly gain of 1.5% on the S&P 500 and 1.8% on the Nasdaq; therefore, the ETFs have understandably underperformed. However, there's no guarantee that these conditions will continue, and these ETFs have demonstrated lower volatility returns while maintaining substantial dividends for those seeking monthly income. As such, they are excellent options for those seeking to generate passive income across a range of market conditions. Should you invest $1,000 in JPMorgan Equity Premium Income ETF right now?

£20k to invest? Consider these passive income stocks to target £2k a year
The first rule of income investing is to remember that dividends from stocks are never guaranteed. For this reason, it's important to build a diversified portfolio that can weather individual shocks and still pay a healthy passive income now and over the long term. Here's an example of what a well-diversified portfolio might look like: Dividend stock Forward dividend yield Global X Nasdaq 100 Covered Call ETF 11% Chelverton UK Dividend Trust 9.4% iShares World Equity High Income ETF (LSE:WINC) 9.7% In total, these investment trusts and exchange-traded funds (ETFs) provide exposure to more than 450 different companies. These span a multitude of regions and sectors, reducing concentration risk and helping to provide a more stable return across the economic cycle. What's more, they have enormous dividend yields, as the table shows. To give you an example of the passive income they can throw off, a £20,000 lump sum invested across them could provide a £2,000 dividend income this year alone. I'm also confident they can grow dividends over time. Here's why I think they're worth considering today. Top fund Tech stocks aren't famed for their enormous dividend potential. But the Global X Nasdaq 100 Covered Call ETF works by purchasing Nasdaq shares and selling covered calls on them, redistributing the income to the fund's shareholders. This fund provides an added bonus to its holders: it pays monthly distributions, giving investors access to their cash earlier. It can thus be a useful tool for accelerating compounding by shortening intervals between reinvestments. Monthly distributions here have been paid for the last 11 years. One downside is that there's limited price appreciation potential, because any price growth above strike prices is forfeited. This can put it at a disadvantage to standard Nasdaq tracker funds. But for dividend hunters, this may be a price worth paying. Dividend trust As its name implies, the Chelverton UK Dividend Trust is focused on generating income from British equities. This geographical strategy carries greater concentration risk than more global funds. But given the London stock market's strong dividend culture, it also has its advantages. It's also important to note that, on balance, this trust is still well diversified despite its UK focus. It invests in a range of industries like financial services, consumer goods, energy, and mining. Furthermore, its capital is evenly distributed, further reducing the threat of individual shocks on overall returns. Hargreaves Services is currently its single largest holding, at 3.5%. Global leader To my mind, the iShares World Equity High Income fund offers a brilliant blend of safety and exciting income potential. Unlike the other high-yield trusts and ETFs I've described, its holdings aren't confined to specific territories. In total, it holds shares in roughly 300 global equities spanning financial services, information technology, telecoms, healthcare, and consumer goods. This broad range protects investors from nasty localised shocks. But this is not all — its two largest single holdings are cash and US Treasuries, accounting for 6.3% and 5.7% of the portfolio respectively. This provides an added layer of robustness. The lion's share of its capital is stashed in the equity market, though. And so it is still highly exposed to stock market movements. But given the long-term resilience of global shares, I believe it's a top dividend stock to consider. The post £20k to invest?

Kyivstar Hopes to Shine in New York as Ukraine Peace Talks Begin
Shares in Ukrainian mobile operator Kyivstar will start trading in New York today hoping that peace talks to end the devastating war in the country will significantly boost the company's value. Elevate Your Investing Strategy: Take advantage of TipRanks Premium at 50% off! Unlock powerful investing tools, advanced data, and expert analyst insights to help you invest with confidence. Chief executive officer Oleksandr Komarov said ahead of the Nasdaq listing that the summit between President Trump and Russian leader Vladimir Putin in Alaska, scheduled for August 15 th, would help drive investment into Ukraine if an end to the three-year war is found. Invest in Recovery 'We will be the best asset for the international investment community to invest in Ukraine, to invest in the Ukrainian recovery, to invest in the Ukrainian support,' Komarov said. Komarov said the company chose Nasdaq, where its Dubai-based parent VEON (VEON) is also listed, over London or Warsaw because it is even more important to 'strengthen the link between the United States and Ukraine rather than between Ukraine and Europe.' VEON shares were up 1.6% in pre-market trading. The company has also strengthened its U.S. ties during the conflict, appointing former U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo to its board and signing a deal with Elon Musk's Starlink for satellite services. Kyivstar, which has been given a pro forma valuation of $2.3 billion, carried out the listing by merging with fintech entrepreneur Betsy Cohen's Cohen Circle special purpose acquisition company (SPAC). The company raised $178 million, confirming earlier reports that it expected up to $200 million. VEON will retain a majority stake in the mobile operator. People's IPO The company has previously stated that it has had extremely strong support for the Kyivstar listing from U.S. authorities, Ukraine and the European Union. Indeed, it has described the listing as 'the people's IPO', hoping that investors around the world would show their support for Ukraine. Kyivstar is the market-leading mobile operator in Ukraine with 24 million subscribers. Analysts agreed that the narrative around the deal was built around Ukraine's postwar reconstruction and digital infrastructure's role in that recovery. However, investors will also likely question the strength of that recovery and the likelihood of any peace deal between Ukraine and Russia holding over the long-term.
