Does anyone have thoughts on this line in the EHS description?
"Ensure compliance with all laws, statutes, regulations and appropriate standards at both locations"

That CCO position is a HUGE undertaking! My guess is that they can't do any worse then SNY has so bar has been set pretty low. Good luck to whomever is selected.....AND GOD SPEED! lol

Am I missing something from this post? Sounds like MNKD is going it alone? They don't have the cash. A sincere question, why is this a good thing?

Hopefully they can get some kind of equity/sales partner similar to SNY but retain the right to market their own product. That would be the ideal scenario.

MNKD has to make people believe that going it alone is an option that they are pursuing even if they are not. It helps with their bargaining power if an entity wants to make an offer to buy the company. It takes a lot of money to hire a CCO. Takes very little money to place an ad on a job board.

No matter how one looks at the situation, MannKind has to address the cash burn issue.

Is it just me or does this job listing seem a tad late?

Sorry to be the grammar Nazi but I'd think they'd get the "C" level job description right
Assure means to convince that it is so
Ensure means to make sure it is so

For a while either one will work, but only for a while. Then it better be ensured.

Actually (from Merriam-Webster.com):
Simple Definition of assure : to make (something) certain : to tell someone in a very strong and definite way that something will happen or that something is true
Full Definition of assure
1 : to make safe (as from risks or against overthrow) : insure 2 : to give confidence to <and hereby we know that we are of the truth, and shall assure our hearts — 1 John 3:19(Authorized Version)> 3 : to make sure or certain : convince <glancing back to assure himself no one was following> 4 : to inform positively <I assure you that we can do it> 5 : to make certain the coming or attainment of : guarantee <worked hard to assure accuracy>

Maybe there is something we don't know about MNKD's cash status.? Could Al have left MNKD with additional funds? To hire a CCU would imply to me that mgt thinks they have the cash in sight.

There has to be something we don't know. And to hire a CCU does imply that.

Mannkind will keep proceeding with what they have.....
