$ITMSF Blott on acquisition.
The revealing part is how he handles straightforward questions:
* PCI’s organic growth? No growth rate.
* Purchased revenue versus existing revenue? Refuses to separate them.
* Integration completion date? Describes products and opportunities without providing a date.
* Indonesia progress? Reiterates need, funding and readiness, then explains delays.
* Company profitability? The $5 million answer introduces ambiguity about excluded costs.
Those are reasonable questions an executive should be able to answer—or clearly explain why he cannot.
What bothers me most is that the upside stays vivid while the checkpoints stay vague. “They need a map” and “they have the money” can remain true for years while shareholders absorb readiness costs and disappointing results.
A lower stock price alone doesn’t solve a management credibility problem.
He may get it done but his vagueness and lack of results for years does not instill high confidence.
