At this point, does anyone here really believe management has any credibility?

Too bad they couldn't have delayed the listing on TASE until they could time the required index purchase with the announcement of a partnership... under the assumption the latter will positively affect share price. purge... they have gotten hammered this past year for lack of guidance on timing of things like TS, so I don't see why they would lack credibility regarding that when they do say something. Obviously it isn't a done deal, but I'd assume it is highly likely given they spoke about it.

What would management do any different if they were out to hose long term shareholder? Could they have screwed this up more since the green light from the FDA if they had tried?
I am seriously asking?

It is a serious question. Does anyone really honestly believe management has any real credibility?
What would they have done different if they were trying to screw things up? Are they really this incompetent?

Hakan opened his part begging for a partner - they will have a field day with that one.

Too bad they couldn't have delayed the listing on TASE until they could time the required index purchase with the announcement of a partnership... under the assumption the latter will positively affect share price. Matt said months ago, Mnkd may have enough cash to pay off the Notes. At that time, he must have thought the TS partner(s) would be found before 8/15/15. Well Mnkd didn't get the first two desirable cards while the shorts were stepping up the attack. Mnkd then extended the Notes conversion for more time hoping the TS partnering would be inked before the second deadline. The floor price in the first deal was $4.64. The negotiation was drug out apparently. Mnkd tried to time the partnering but it got the wrong cards dealt. Mnkd ended up having to play the cards they were dealt. Al could have allowed Sny to Buy-In 10% at much higher price than $2.50/sh. Mnkd kept getting the wrong cards dealt. Ostensibly, Mnkd was willing to wait till the TS partner pays the right Licensing upfront fee plus royalty even at the expense of 12-14% dilution at fire sale price of $2.50/sh. Time will tell if this is the right call in the long run as the first deal'd set precedence for subsequent ones. You would want to get the best deal possible for the first one.

Purge: Frothing at the mouth doesn't look good on you. I was happy to hear that a TS deal is in the works.

I have a hard time chalking up every single negative event to bad luck or wrong cards. At some point management needs to be held accountable for poor company performance. If you don't produce results, you are replaced by someone who will. It's hard to find a reason to have much faith in Hakan. Every CC is worse than the last. Some events that have plagued the launch may have been out of his control, but I believe the company and many investors would benefit from a change.

I agree but who would be attracted to run this company now?
