Core Viewpoint - Diageo has initiated a comprehensive search for a new CEO following the resignation of Debra Crew, with CFO Nik Jhangiani serving as interim CEO.

Group 1 - The board is considering both internal and external candidates for the CEO position [1]. - Diageo's stock performance has been negatively impacted during Crew's tenure, attributed to declining demand in key markets such as China and the U.S., leading to a drop in sales [1]. - Only the Asia-Pacific region reported organic net sales growth among five regional markets in the first half of fiscal year 2025 [1]. - Diageo has suspended its mid-term earnings guidance due to potential impacts from U.S. tariffs, awaiting further clarity [1]. - A cost-cutting plan has been announced to ensure sufficient funds for future growth and to enhance operational leverage over the next three years [1]. Group 2 - The chairman of Diageo, John Manzoni, expressed gratitude for Debra Crew's contributions, particularly in navigating challenges posed by the pandemic and geopolitical issues [3]. - The board emphasizes the importance of finding the best candidate to lead Diageo forward and is confident in the company's ability to create long-term sustainable value [3].
