Why is Flemming still employed here? Does anyone look at the numbers?

Horrible numbers this quarter on all counts. We are bleeding money thanks to all our failed acquisitions, and now our “leader” has the gall to say “oops, maybe Shire really should be back into separate business units.” Why exactly is the board still letting this clown show run Shire? What does he have on them?
 






Read his blog to employees. He lays some blame of our low stock price on the "overall stock market correction". Hahaha...shpg was tanking way before the most recent correction.

He is tenaciously delusional.
 






Let’s see. The stock was sucking even before last week, and Shire was underperforming nearly all our peers. Our quarter numbers were terrible. It’s a sign of how little respect we get and how little Fleming understands our business that our CEO thinks he can just make stuff up and then thinks we will believe this BS. Plus, when the stock sucks he gets his bonus and we get laid off. Great leadership.
 


















Until Shire successfully attracts professional money managers as investors (institutional and hedge funds), the share price is not going anywhere. One analyst even said "there is cheap, and then there is Shire cheap." It seems our low stock price is the most attractive part of the company's offering right now. That appears to be our greatest competitive advantage and differentiator. How pathetic!

For Shire, more margin pressure plus fewer growth sparks make for underwhelming 2018
One analyst takeaway from Shire’s 2018 outlook: Consensus earnings estimates probably need to come down.
Shire’s produced a “weaker” gross margin than analysts expected, Welford noted.


Shire's pushing its growth potential, but investors aren't sold
Challenges may have dampened investor moral.
 












Let’s not overlook the fleeing Board members. Crappy stock, executive and Board members leaving - Flemming is a bizarro world success.

Any competent Board member of a company circling the drain as Shire is doing would conduct their own investigation, talk to non-handpicked employees, and come up with an independent assessment. Our useless Board has not done this and are not upholding their fiduciary duties to the shareholders, who now own one of the worst performing stocks in biotech or Pharma. One has to wonder what sort of dirt Flemming has on them.
 






lets be honest, the best and maybe only catalyst event we have in 2018 is Flemming being replaced

it is overdue and every shareholder and employee knows it

board please find us a good ceo
 
























Hey, I like Flem. If you don’t like him, find another company. I bet he makes the 20 billion by 2020 and then Perry and him can vacation together while you read about it on the Intranet. Drink the kool-aid and then run from the sinking Shire ship.

I guarantee he won't be here in 2020. Follow him when he goes.
