A Newell acquisition of EWSI would make sense from
Post# of 3844
Why would Marty get acquired now? His ego and plan I doubt had this as a strategy so soon, until maybe China didn't happen in a timely fashion and the PPS tanked. Out of money? PPS too low to use dilution effectively anymore? Wants out of the game with some dough in his pocket? Who knows.
Could explain the silent period for so long, I guess. The deal could easily be taking 6 months. But even so, Marty could have kept in better touch on milestones over the last 2 quarters to keep the PPS up and get a better price. Or maybe he does want out and let the PPS fall cause Newell couldn't afford EWSI otherwise.
Anyone want to hazard a guess what such a merger would do to the PPS?
