About Cabling Installation & Maintenance

Our mission: Bringing practical business and technical intelligence to today's structured cabling professionals

For more than 30 years, Cabling Installation & Maintenance has provided useful, practical information to professionals responsible for the specification, design, installation and management of structured cabling systems serving enterprise, data center and other environments. These professionals are challenged to stay informed of constantly evolving standards, system-design and installation approaches, product and system capabilities, technologies, as well as applications that rely on high-performance structured cabling systems. Our editors synthesize these complex issues into multiple information products. This portfolio of information products provides concrete detail that improves the efficiency of day-to-day operations, and equips cabling professionals with the perspective that enables strategic planning for networks’ optimum long-term performance.

Throughout our annual magazine, weekly email newsletters and 24/7/365 website, Cabling Installation & Maintenance digs into the essential topics our audience focuses on.

  • Design, Installation and Testing: We explain the bottom-up design of cabling systems, from case histories of actual projects to solutions for specific problems or aspects of the design process. We also look at specific installations using a case-history approach to highlight challenging problems, solutions and unique features. Additionally, we examine evolving test-and-measurement technologies and techniques designed to address the standards-governed and practical-use performance requirements of cabling systems.
  • Technology: We evaluate product innovations and technology trends as they impact a particular product class through interviews with manufacturers, installers and users, as well as contributed articles from subject-matter experts.
  • Data Center: Cabling Installation & Maintenance takes an in-depth look at design and installation workmanship issues as well as the unique technology being deployed specifically for data centers.
  • Physical Security: Focusing on the areas in which security and IT—and the infrastructure for both—interlock and overlap, we pay specific attention to Internet Protocol’s influence over the development of security applications.
  • Standards: Tracking the activities of North American and international standards-making organizations, we provide updates on specifications that are in-progress, looking forward to how they will affect cabling-system design and installation. We also produce articles explaining the practical aspects of designing and installing cabling systems in accordance with the specifications of established standards.

ADM Lays Out Strategic Plan for Sustainable Earnings Growth, Including Target Milestone of $6.00-$7.00 EPS by 2025 and Continued Growth Beyond

By: via Business Wire

Productivity and Innovation to Drive Profit Growth Across All 3 BUs

Targeting Doubling of Nutrition Profitability to Range of $1.25B-$1.5B by 2025

Continued Focus on Returns; Targeting $1B EVA by 2025, Propelling Value Creation for Shareholders

Balanced Capital Allocation Strategy, Including Potential $5B in Share Repurchases Over Plan Horizon

New Goal to Reduce Scope 3 GHG Emissions 25% by 2035

ADM (NYSE: ADM), a global leader in nutrition and agricultural origination and processing, hosted its 2021 Global Investor Day, unveiling a comprehensive plan to drive continued earnings growth to $6.00-$7.00 per share by 2025.

“We delivered on the commitments we laid out at our last investor day: building a better ADM, dampening volatility of earnings and cash flows, and expanding base earnings by almost 50% from $3.00 to our new normalized baseline of $4.50 per share,” said Chairman and CEO Juan Luciano. “Now, with a premier Nutrition business and a repositioned portfolio that is well-aligned with enduring global trends, we’re powering strong, high single-digit percentage annualized earnings growth toward our new target milestone target of $6.00-$7.00 per share by 2025.”

The company detailed a five-year plan with targets including:

  • Net incremental operating profit growth of $1.2B, which translates to high single-digit percentage EPS growth from a current normalized baseline of $4.00-$4.50 per share to a new baseline of $6.00-$7.00 by 2025.
  • Growth across all three business units, with Nutrition targeting $1.25-$1.5B in operating profit by 2025.
  • A consistent and strong framework for shareholder value creation, including a continued dividend payout ratio of 30-40% of earnings, and about $5B in share repurchases, absent significant other uses of cash.
  • A continued target of 10% return on invested capital, significantly above the company’s long-term weighted average cost of capital of 7%, and generating $1B in EVA (economic value-add).

The company also announced that, in addition to its existing Strive 35 goals, which set forth ambitious reduction targets for energy and water use, trash to landfills, and Scope 1 and 2 greenhouse gas emissions, ADM will reduce Scope 3 greenhouse gas emissions by 25% by 2035 from a 2019 baseline.

“We’re committed to continuing to lead in the decarbonization of our industry, and thanks to our broad and integrated value chain, ADM is uniquely positioned to help customers meet their sustainability commitments,” Luciano said. “We’ve worked to enhance sustainable farming practices on more than 13 million acres over the years, and we’re continuing to expand our efforts. We introduced the industry’s first carbon-neutral milling footprint, and thanks to our carbon capture and storage capabilities, we’ve safely and permanently stored more than 3.5 million metric tons of CO2 a mile and a half under the surface of the earth. Sustainability is core to our culture and our business plan, and with the announcement of our new Scope 3 goal today, we’re continuing to deliver change.”

In addition to a five-year growth plan and new sustainability initiatives, ADM leaders detailed a compelling pipeline of opportunities that will boost growth beyond 2025.

“ADM has dynamically positioned its business portfolio for superior performance reinforced by the three enduring macro trends of food security, health and well-being, and sustainability,” Luciano continued. “From differentiation and digitalization in Ag Services & Oilseeds, to decarbonization and our growing BioSolutions platform in Carbohydrate Solutions, to continued market growth in Health & Wellness in Nutrition, we’re unlocking opportunities that should push us to the high end of our target $6.00-$7.00 EPS range by 2025, and more importantly will position us for sustained growth for years to come.”
