I am not paying as close attention as I have in the past, has this been discussed on any calls or announcements?
Specifically wondering about Date and Location?
Regards,
OOG

There's been some largely offhand comments regarding a desire to have an in-person event again and in Danbury. The shareholders meeting held in Danbury was in 2015. There was a tour of the facility afterwards which was great. The last in person meeting was in 2019 in Valencia California. I was at that one too. |

There was a tour of the facility afterwards which was great. The last in person meeting was in 2019 in Valencia California. I was at that one too. Going from memory, the 2015 meeting Al was at and was believing the BS Sanofi was saying that the issue with afrezza sales was spirometer testing. That was the year I told Al they were BS'ing him and showed him things like Jones spirometer www.jonesmedical.com/spirometry-for-afrezza/Matt ran the 2016 meeting in Danbury after Al passed in February and presented the bust of Al. That was Mike's first ASM and when I first met him. I am not sure he was able to spell diabetes yet. It was also the year I told him afrezza was doomed and the only thing that would save it was the CGM and connected care. He clearly thought I was a nut and I am not sure he even knew what a CGM was. I think that was also the year the guy stood up and made an offer from a Chinese company to buy MNKD. The next year 2017 was the year of Damon Dash and again in Danbury. By this time Mike was the CEO and every shareholder was coming for Mike's head for lack of afrezza sales. Instead of a normal ASM Mike ran a side show with Damon and some others doing a talk show on a stage. 2018 and 2019 were in CA. There was no way in 2018 Mike wanted to face a crowd like was at the 2017 meeting. |

They better have real cream or half/half for the coffee. I really dislike the fake creamer they had the last time. He will need to address his plan for insurance. Right now its not clear he has one. I guess I could invite Mark Cuban. I don't know if he would come but that could be a little more exciting than when the guy made the offer from the Chinese company. We need a plan and need to execute on it. Right now its near impossible for T2s to get afrezza and the T1s first need to get denied. Its a mess. Inhale-3 is the perfect segment to say they have lipohypertrophy so they will be able to get insurance coverage. By May he can really pump this up but thats not addressing the issue. The kids nor the T2s can use that excuse. Houston - we have a "cost" issue and the PBMs are blocking insurance coverage. |

Right now they are selling direct. Who knows the future. I am sure they would like to be in every CVS and Walmart but it is going to cut into the meter business. Abbott has a similar device as the Stelo but its not FDA approved yet. They sell a lot of meters. We will have to see how things unfold but right now its direct on their website. |
