I have no crystal ball, nor do i have any information
But since last night this idea has been on my head .
Taking Mannkind private would not be good for all us long term investors who have been supportive for years .
But taking it private could be the reason they are asking for two years guarantee employment for Mike, Matt , etc.
I am certain some of you have already posted something similar , if it has I apologize, in a hurry this morning so could not search the older postings

Once companies reach a certain size and are public, they must remain public. SEC would not permit a going private transaction with so many individual shareholders.

IMO, the better scenario would be a reverse merger where a private company wants to merge with MNKD to go public.

If so, they better have a lot of cash in their coffers.

I don't see that happening. If something was announced there would have to be a tender offering of shares and potentially another company might make a bid and best the original offer. Frankly I'm surpristed there has not been a Hostile buy out attempted or an activist investor. This might be it happening. We will see SHORTLY.

They are a start-up. Someone mentioned earlier that they have built the company with like 10 million.

If Hostile buy out, we could see company shopped and sold before seeing any revenue traction. Hope this is not the case.

Not likely to go private, but very likely a takeover candidate by a BP firm.
