What do you guys expect to happen once the Change Healthcare IPO takes place. I am primarily interested in the price aspect - my hunch is that the price will not appreciate after the IPO and that they will start to lay off after that so they can improve numbers such is earnings per share etc.
What are your thoughts
Fine. Put the kids music channel on round the clock, and crank it up LOUD. Just do anything to avoid another war over blue collar news channels.
Cmon Nail. CNBC? Really??? Everyone knows Bloomberg is the best :-)
Looks like we got ourselves a nice trade war going. Nail, are you sure watching CNBC every morning is going to get this IPO done before we have a nice recession going? I've been reading Reuters since I was in high school and I don't like the way the tea leaves are reading right now...
I don't think this IPO is even going to happen. Nail is running around like a chainsaw maniac attempting to cut people down faster than we are losing customers and money, in a vain hope that we can be profitable just long enough to dump on some poor Wall Street investors somewhere. In the process he is causing manic chaos everywhere. Nobody seems to know how things work anymore, everyone is just trying to duck and cover. Entire departments are getting axed from one legacy organization and the one from the other legacy company gets grafted in, totally oblivious to how things were done before, and everyone just fights. It doesn't help that IT has been run into the ground just about everywhere, and they are running out of duck tape to keep the mess of tinker toys together. We are selling capabilities we don't have, and then everyone fights over who will build that stuff out yesterday.
The markets are already showing signs of hesitation. It looks like 2006 ish to me, when things were just starting to go wrong. We are already far beyond the typical lifespan of an economic cycle, really only propped up by an ungodly amount of tax cuts and deficit spending. If we hit recession anytime soon as it should, the IPO will never happen and we be in bankruptcy. We will all get to work one day and the doors will be padlocked.
I think I should cash out my 401k and buy some collateralized debt obligations. They should be safe.
I think they need to be profitable first. - In the six months ended Sept. 30, the company lost $13 million on revenues of almost $1.7 billion.
what's expected timeline for IPO?
No shares have been offered to employees and not in the worx. Dis is an exit strategy for the current owners and not so much the sale of a great and growing new company.
I will guess zero for the worker level because they are so valued. NOT.
How many shares will employees get allocated?
The price will ride the Trump bubble higher with everything else for a while, then it will sink and go to nothing once everyone realizes the P/E ratio has a zero or negative denominator. I certainly wouldn't put any 401k money in it.
