Dr. Tucker,
Let me start by congratulating you and your newly hired expanded team on just how quickly after your arrival you have managed to guide AOI to a new 52 week low – and then some.
Hard to imagine with all of this thick gravy lining your hip pockets.
- You have a stake in the world’s largest offshore oil find of 2022.
- You just recently started another round of share buy backs.
- Total has confirmed Venus will go ahead to production.
- Brent continues to rise with conflict in the Middle East.
- Everything else.
What’s wrong with this picture Dr. Tucker?
Has it even been even 6 months since your arrival?
Has the share price gone up at all since your arrival?
With all of the untold hot irons in the fire, you and your merry band have somehow unbelievably managed to oversee the share price dragged down more than 32% from it’s 52 week high to a new 52 week low – and then some.
When I think of where the share price of this company is and where the share price should be makes me think AOI is much the same like searching for the treasure of Oak Island.
Each season the treasure and promise of untold riches always seem to be just out of reach as at the end of each disappointing season of finding nothing of any significance it is always decided that yes we will be back next year to spend more investor money looking for that elusive treasure.
The reality is that the reality show itself makes a hell of lot more money each year than finding any treasure ever would so easy to believe this show is full of smoke and mirrors in that nothing of any real value will be found on Oak Island anytime soon.
The question for you Dr. Tucker is when are you going to bring some real value to AOI’s share price or are you going to just keep chasing that never ending pot of gold that never pays off for any investor’s but keeps the double slices of cheesecake for lunch and the full bodied cabernet’s for dinner flowing on the backs of your nobody shareholders.
DR. TUCKER LET ME SAY THIS PLAINLY AND CLEARLY ENOUGH THAT EVEN A CHILD COULD UNDERSTAND. “THE TIME HAS COME TO PONY UP AND PUT MY MONEY WHERE YOUR MOUTH IS - DOUBLE THE DIVIDEND AND PAY IT QUARTERLY.” If you think you are safe as you might believe in that enough of the top investor’s have your back, just don’t be surprised if some nobody investor gets up on the wrong side of the bed one day and decides to reach out to Mr. Ackman at Pershing to see if he has any interest in doing for AOI what he and Mr. Harrison did for Canadian Pacific Railway.
God help you if he is interested and you are not doing your job.
Not enough can be said – or paid for top shelf leadership and is precisely the reason I have never bought one single share of AOI since my initial stake back in 2012 and why I continue to buy CP like clockwork month after month, year after year, decade after decade and will continue to do so until the day of my death.
10 year performance at CP is +274.78%.
10 year performance at AOI is -71.25%.
Just like a picture - numbers also say a thousand words.........
Lastly, never forget that everyone is not only accountable, but also replaceable up to and including the CEO.
Shahin please ensure the good Doctor gets my message loud and clear. GLTA.
