This excerpt taken from the LUX 6-K filed Feb 8, 2008. “The combination of Luxottica and Oakley changes the future of our
industry,” said Andrea Guerra, Luxottica Group CEO, on presenting the plan. “Today is the start of a new Luxottica Group, of
three to five years of development, new projects and the exploration of new
segments. Two complementary models, two histories that are unique but with much
in common: Oakley’s extraordinary sun lens technology and its supremacy in sport
together with our scale, links with the luxury and fashion worlds as well as
design and manufacturing excellence. The combination of these strengths will
enable us to create a competitive edge on a global scale, at all levels of the
organization and with unlimited growth potential.
“Our common work already began last summer. Since then, the top 80 Oakley and Luxottica managers have been working together on plans for the future and we are now in the execution phase. This process has been based from the outset on a real integration of people and cultures of our two companies before that of the businesses. This is the only way we can fully realize the extraordinary opportunity we have in front of us to change the development of our industry.
