Abbvie Board Ditches Shire Acquisition

Quote












There is a pattern here. First it was the diploma fiasco, and now it's internal emails telling employees and share holders this deal was so exciting and we were going forward with it. Gonzalez is a liar bottom line !!!

I heard that Ricky doesn't have any problem with paying the 1.6 billion because he's expecting a substantial payout based on an email he received from a Nigerian prince. Sure, he had to put up twice the amount from Abbvie's cash reserves as collateral, but it was an amazing business opportunity.
 












Funny thing is most if not all Abbvie employees were crap talking saying Shire employees would be slashed, how many of you will fall now that your company owes our company $1.64 BILLION for no reason? Anyone want unemployment phone number?
 




What do you expect when you put someone in charge who has only a high school diploma. Get him out or he will run your company to the ground if he hasn't allready! I bet his bonus won't suffer from this deal!
 




Gonzales looks like a complete stooge. Runs around telling people how excited he is about the deal a week AFTER the treasury put out the new tax rules. Then does a reverse course and says the treasury rules fundamentally impacted the deal. This of course after he claimed all along that the deal was not about taxes but more about strategy. Now he's got to write that $1.6B check.

He's been neutered. If the Board doesn't do its job and terminate this guy, some of the investors that lost huge money in Shire will have his head.

He is Mile's boy and he will try to protect him!
 












Maybe this failure to buy Shire will be like the Abbott failure to buy Alza in 1999. After that failure Abbott bought Knoll. Knoll had a product about to finish phase 3 test that did all right for Abbott and now AbbVie. The product is Humira. Maybe there is another diamond in the rough that Littlle Ricky could find.
 








After this debacle and how AbbVie trashed Shire, I can't imagine ANYONE willing to do a deal with AbbVie in the future. Gonzales simply has zero credibility now and can't be trusted. Stick a fork in him.
