This reorganization will enable Lighting and Appliances to provide more cost-effective and pointed approaches to supporting all of our customers needs,

Because appliances and lighting have powerful connections with similar consumer bases, we believe they will now be able to grow more successfully together than either would on its own, ... We want to create a simpler, more efficient business that will be competitive across all product lines. By taking out administrative costs, we will be able to put that money back into investing in new technologies and building greater brand awareness.

The Lighting and Appliances teams are to be commended for their outstanding efforts in navigating very competitive global industries, ... Our goal now is to combine the rich talents of these two businesses into a unified effort that will extend our leadership position and profitability.
