Nestlé CEO Under Pressure as Baby-Formula Mess Adds to Woes

For Nestlé SA, the baby-formula crisis that has sparked the largest recall in its history is a scandal it could have done without.

The tainted infant-milk mess, triggered by a contaminated ingredient, came as the world’s biggest food company was already struggling to revive its shares from their multi-year lows, adding further pressure on its new Chief Executive Officer Philipp Navratil and his management team to present a turnaround plan when the Swiss giant unveils full-year results on Thursday.
