He spoke about the long-term transformation of the business, how he would sustain current performance, and the long-term strategy for value creation. Commenting after the presentation on the growth potential for the business he re-confirmed Unilever's long-term ambition to grow ahead of its markets as set out with its 4th Quarter results in 2005. Cescau refused to outline a timeframe for achieving his ambition of above market growth. Cescau outlined how he aims to move the business into higher growth space through a better allocation of resources, innovation, acquisition, and a focus on Vitality. If Unilever's markets grew at the upper end of their estimated range this would result in sales growth of up to 4-5%.
