Halt ... just a shuffle

Samira gets CEO position as well.
Goodman to Board as Chair.
Gale to Lead Director.

“I have worked side by side with Samira for 18 years where I have had the privilege of watching her develop into a seasoned, top brass executive. Knight is my baby, and as such, I would only entrust its stewardship to the best and brightest. As Executive Chairman and Knight’s largest shareholder, I will remain engaged and focused on non-operational areas where I can add the most value,” said Jonathan Ross Goodman

LMFAO....'just a shuffle'????   JRG basically resigned or more likely PUSHED out. The quote is nothing but fluff to calm the market. You just lost all these alleged 'bets' you claim others have made. The 3 posters you've been consistently bashing ended up being right. You are full of it loll and have a LOT of apologising to do. 
Comment by MrMugsy on May 13, 2021 9:48am
Sorry Porky but Goodman isn't gone - he continues to guide the direction of the company.  He's been grooming Samira for this position a long time.  Nice try though. Benny's Raider prediction didn't come true - don't try to colour this with a "Raider." Your bet is up next  !!!!  Stay tuned. : )

& JRG sounds energized and clearly states NOT GOING ANYWHERE!
Comment by PitchinPennies on May 13, 2021 9:39am
Reading between the lines, this suggests JRG might be recognizing his own limitations, which is completely in conflict with JRG's personal brand and life-story. Samira's a great person, but, let's be honest, she's a skilled factotum, not a rainmaker. Mark Beaudet was the person who could take Goodman's ideas and turn them into reality, back at Paladin. I'd be buying Kinght ...more

We know Mark wasn't interested in coming back to pharma "full-time" and certainly Samira was being groomed for this position. She moved from President ... to President/CFO ... then President/COO and now President/CEO. It sounds like Goodman continues to do what he's been doing to guide the business - with less involvement in day-to-day.  That's what I'm seeing.
Comment by porksniffer on May 13, 2021 10:15am
Finally, a coherent and unbiased analysis. Beaudet was certainly the man behind the scenes that got very little of the glory. This is a clear admission the strategy for part II was an epic failure by JRG and cost shareholders a fortune.  What worked 10-15 years ago isn't working today. Luck and timing played a massive role in PLB success. Besides capital raises and investment in Medison ...more

This idot seems like never listen to an earnings call. Samira does the talk all the time. She has been the CEO long time ago. Now it's just the formality process. Stupido, think please. LOL
Comment by porksniffer on May 13, 2021 3:23pm
LOL....Why would I bother listening to a conference on a turd company who's only use to me is a tax loss? Don't vent your frustrations here on me, you and NumNuts have been killed here. Over 5 years of rubbish "I'm a buyer, I bought more, I'm accumulating..." LMAO  Since you are here because of JRG and now that he is officially out why are you here? Left a hell of a ...more  
Comment by wagyusteak on May 13, 2021 3:31pm
LOL. That's why I call you idiot. LOL. ignorance at max level. LOLLLLLLLLLL
Comment by porksniffer on May 13, 2021 3:49pm
loolllll,,you call me names when you been wrong for 5 years and called out. JRG being pushed out is an acknowledgement of his endless mistakes that have cost shareholders billions. The 'control freak' has no clothes. One wonders where this would be if not for using share buybacks to patch up years of mistakes? My guess is sub $3.00 easily. Again, stop yelling at me, why are you still here? ...more

LOL. $3, great, I can buy more. pleaseeeee, make it go there. LOL. The only thing I have that you don't have is MONEY. LOLLLLLLL. I have money to burn. Making so much money with XPEL. 50 bagger. LOLLLLLLLL.

Kudos to Benedict, he predicted that the market was demanding heads to roll and they got one. With all due respect Mr. JG failled and badly sevemn waisted years regardless of any public  spin the do, If the share price re,main in limbo  the market will demand all heads to roll and so they should if they contine to fail.  Great day.Meir must be smiling today. Poetic Justice but late ...more

Wrong !!!  Nice try Chi-Chi but heads didn't roll. Samira gets the job she signed up for and Goodman continues to stratgically guide the ship. Their work relationship doesn't really change. ================== Definition (general) ... The Chairperson's main duties include chairing meetings of the Board of Directors, setting meeting agendas in ...more

First - I don't think anyone is asking you to listen to the call Porky. We don't have any use for you. We're talking to those who use this site properly - for info and discussion. Second - worst performing in the early days - same as Paladin ... hello ????  See why I've been saying it's going to follow a similar trajectory.  Surely you do ... you just don't want ...more  
Comment by MrMugsy on May 13, 2021 10:38am
Beaudet was a great Marketing guy and he stepped in to replace Goodman when needed most. The market appreciated it. We know Mark has no intention of returning to full-time pharma so it isn't worth hoping for anymore. Mark was good at running Paladin after Goodman left but I really can't say the years after Goodman were great.  I can't say he performed better at Endo than Samara ...more  
Comment by EbbFlow88 on May 13, 2021 10:54am
Well said. I don't mind this and you even pointed out a while back how likely this management change was. I have confidence in Samira and I think Goodman will still be very involved tangentially.  Should be an interesting conference call tomorrow
Comment by MrMugsy on May 13, 2021 12:33pm
Right - we have the quarterly call tomorrow and we have the fireside chat at RBC on Tuesday.  Will be worth listening to both.
Comment by GoldenInvestor on May 13, 2021 1:04pm
