Excerpt:
“Paul is especially well suited to step into the role of CEO—he has deeply relevant industry experience, he knows Windstream well, and he is a proven leader with a strong record of moving fast and delivering long-term value. The Board is fully aligned in its belief that now is the right time for Paul to take the reins and lead the Company forward,” said Elliott Portfolio Manager Johannes Weber.
So the Board is all in agreement that now is the time for a guy familiar with mergers to drive. Got it.
Looks like it's time to buckle up kids. Remember, Zayo already looked at buying both Windstream AND Uniti. And who's sold to Zayo? Sunu.
Remember also that Wholesale was being shopped for auction.
