"Corporate Profits vs. Community Costs: The Exploitation of Mississippi's Water Resources"

A New York Times investigation reveals how Siemens and other corporations made grand promises to modernize water systems and boost revenues in cash-strapped Mississippi towns, only to deliver faulty meters and inaccurate water bills.

Siemens Exceeds Earnings Expectations, Anticipates Slower Sales Growth in 2024

Siemens reported a 10% increase in revenue growth for its fiscal fourth quarter, surpassing expectations with a record high of €21.4 billion ($23.2 billion). However, the German industrial conglomerate anticipates a slowdown in sales growth for 2024, projecting a 4-8% increase compared to the 11% recorded for the 2023 fiscal year. The muted outlook is primarily attributed to the industrial automation division.

The company also proposed an increase in dividend and expressed confidence in its strategy and the digital and sustainability transformations of its customers.
