'Russell Lynch: In defence of Miles Roberts'


Outlook The superbly named Miles Roberts is in hot water this week over the £201,000 allowance paid to the DS Smith boss following the move of the packaging firm's head office from Maidenhead to Euston Road – which actually shortened the commute of the Hertfordshire-based Mr Miles.

But there's no mileage in cheap shots. Miles needs to be in London, you see, to spend time with "important shareholders", according to Smith's chairman Gareth Davis. Investors will be delighted that they're shelling out to see more of Mr Roberts.

One look at the share price – virtually unmoved in the past year – suggests that might be time and money well spent.

DS Smith plc (LON:SMDS)'s stock had its "underperform" rating restated by research analysts at Davy Research in a report released on Monday.

The Times:

The boss of Britain's biggest cardboard box manufacturer has been handed a relocation allowance of more than £200,000 to "compensate" him for a 27-mile office move, which shortened his daily commute from home.

DS Smith, which makes cartons for Domino's Pizza, Amazon books and Danone yoghurt, awarded a £3.39 million pay package to Miles Roberts, its chief executive, last year.

Included was a £201,000 relocation package triggered by moving the company headquarters from Maidenhead, Berkshire, to Euston Road in central London, according to small print in DS Smith's annual report
