1010 GMT - Unilever PLC is the most mentioned company across news items over the past four hours, according to Factiva data. The Anglo-Dutch multisector retailer--which owns consumer brands such as Ben & Jerry's ice cream, Dove soap and Cif and Domestos cleaning products--reported a better-than-expected turnover of 14.8 billion euros ($16.34 billion) in the first quarter and underlying sales growth of 10.5%. The increase was driven by improved volumes performance, down 0.2% as the market expected a drop of 3.2%, while the price increase was in line with the company-provided consensus of 7.2%.
