Get rid of the sundry and equipment tiers. You are either in or out with Patterson Dental. This was nothing less than a confusing way to pay the sales team a fraction of what they used to make. Reduced expenses, reduced Motus that WE gave up commission dollars to get, against our will, and now the Delta Dental mistake. All roads lead to one person. Time for Bushman to go.
 






























So the new dental prez was out of a job for close to two years, probably knows KP from her time at Covidian, and said WTF I am un employed why not? Zero dental experience. The three alpha females who all thought they should have the job but not qualified will be that fake bitchy nice. And the Fat Irishman who heads NO Marketing will be like "WTFAY." And the #2 behind Little Timmie will be like "I should have your job". Interesting times indeed.

Top level ESs heading for the door. Fix this tiered commission system while you still have some capable players left. You're making a bad thing worse.

Don’t need dental experience to cut benefits, payroll, and budgets. CEO going to cut so much that PDCO returns to being a single drug store in Milwaukee.

Should we be concerned that earnings (losses) havent been announced? Management seems a bit more tight lipped then normal

Yes indeed the "concern" level should be high. They are going to play the "we took action to reduce our expenses" card, which Zurby has been running from the day he took office however you and only run that play for 18 months. AT this point it is clear that they have no plan to grow the company. Vet is much better off than dental, and at this point is a much more valuable business unit. Dental is a total dumpster fire, they have little to no talent left. The Marine and the Fat Irishman are so not able to provide solutions plus the fact the entire sales team hates them. New Dental President has no proven ability to grow in this market. Drunk John buck continues to be the head of the board, this is like the perfect example of we expect a better result from th same play. HS is being called to take by an activist investor when the fuck is somebody going to raise up on this shit show.

Too closely held with not enough institutional interest for anyone to even give a shit.

The evening before earnings. Dec 5 will be a tell tale day. Miss the numbers and this puppy goes to $17/share. Panic sets in.... then what ?

It would’ve but….. the company announced that they are looking at selling/being acquired. Wall Street loved that news as it means a more competent management team acquiring PDCO = brighter future and better stock price. Very embarrassing at how much the current MN crew has ran the dental business into the ground.
