RE:RE:CEO Richard Kellan and CFO James Lorimer Interview Posted

RE:RE:CEO Richard Kellan and CFO James Lorimer Interview PostedAgreed; this is good stuff.  The ability to communicate direction and tie oneself to goals (such as % of revs digital) gives us (and mgmt) measurable KPIs to track progress.  My sense is this company has moved from its back foot (defence first) to its front foot (offence first) and this is encouraging.  The past few years have been extremely frustrating and putting out fires is no way to drive a company forward.  Not that anyone is asking my opinion (!) but I'd like to see mgmt put their heads back down and be 100% focused on the tasks at hand.  I think a semi-annually updated investor presentation (like these ones... Biosyent (RX) CEO does a really nice quarterly vid as a reference) on their website is appropriate.  Shareholders are best served by mgmt teams that aren't too promotional.  I don't see that happening but we'd rather mgmt listen/serve their customers than prospective shareholders.  I also have to say that it concerns me they are back talking about M&A.  Most companies destroy capital doing M&A and I would encourage mgmt to take a hard look at the previous two acquisitions (Thistle & Eclipse) and convince themselves (and us) that these were efficient uses of capital.  From then to now the share count has doubled, debt up and revenues down.  I realize this is in the process of correcting itself but I'm not convinced these were effective uses of 'excess cash'... I put 'excess cash' in quotes because they didn't really have excess cash to throw around. "We want to build a better business, not a bigger business" does provide some comfort.  Anyhow, lots to keep tabs on here which is good.
