We believe that the recently announced resignation of the company’s Chief Financial Officer (CFO) and Executive Vice President, Kimberly Ross, has made investors cautious about the company’s prospects. The resignation will take effect from Oct 2, 2014.
Ross, who joined Avon nearly three years back, proved to be an able leader as she significantly contributed toward the company’s turnaround. Management remains pleased with her work and believes that the company is well on track for the future.

This has led to the company’s distressed operating results over the past few quarters. Moreover, weakness in the emerging markets, like China as well as regulatory and cash flow
