If sny needs afrezza they can't have mnkd fail. Sny can offer mnkd $5-6/share for just afrezza. Mnkd can keep ts. Al's legacy will be safe. And we learn a painful investing lesson and move on with our lives.

And we learn a painful investing lesson and move on with our lives. Are kidding! Of course SNY can have MNKD fail, they have all of the MNKD technology and patents as collateral on the loan. MNKD fails and SNY walks away with all of it! I've been abused every time a post anything regarding the lack of commitment from SNY, the structure of this loan and the incompetence of mnkd management. The only possible way this company survives is another big bail out from AL and a complete replacement of the entire board of directors and upper management, I personnally don't think any of it will happen.

I certainly do, I hope he doesn't but I think he probably see the writing on the wall just as clearly as we do.

Or financing through a few more months, and MANNKIND chooses to end deal with Sanofi with another player in diabetes stepping forward to partner? Not sure what to hope for at this point as i'm disappointed with everyone and everything, but still haven't sold any shares

Another option would be for say, novo nordisk to buy up the shares on the open market and take control and cancel the Sanofi agreement... Any big pharma company in the diabetes market could relatively cheaply cure mankind's financial woes and aggressively market Afrezza, and get access to MNKD patents, as well as set back their competitor Sanofi.
Would also nail the shorts too, which would be a welcome bonus.

You're relying on a mans ego as your plan for your investment? Like it or not, I think AL Mann is a smart enough business man to know when to hold'm and know when to fold'm. He knows this company needs a ground up restructuring and the current management has designed the business plan for failure.

Right. So he gives away the company and eats the last 10+years, because he's come this far, is so close, and can't afford to keep the doors open anymore. Right. If that truly makes sense to you, then yes, sell your shares and leave the rest of us here to die with al. It's been real, c-ya

Not sure what condition our 90 year old leader is in, but we can't rely on him. Call back any shares you are lending. You are hurting yourself and the company.
And buy more now!

I think MannKind though is in really deep sh** however. Any large cap bio-pharma could buy MannKind shares on the open market and steal MannKind away from Sanofi with a hostile takeover as cheap as they are. Ask yourself, why hasn't this happened? That's why I am freaked and very spooked by today with no press release or signs of recovery. It's game over man, game over.

He knows this company needs a ground up restructuring and the current management has designed the business plan for failure. Then Al would need to fire himself as he is still Chairman and what we are seeing with the company to date is all his guidance. What we don't know is what is going on behind the scenes. The stock action might not be indicative at all with what is really going on. On the flip side, there could also be real panic at Mannkind HQs because their plan to fund themselves just appeared to dissolve in front of their eyes if the news is true.

Well, Mr. Mann can always bask in the glory of a lot of other achievements. I don't know that any misjudging of afrezza would tarnish his record. He certainly hasn't done much to help the past several months. Maybe he has come to the conclusion that afrezza isn't economically viable.
