Excellent points, robb. Pessina/KKR definitely is the new sheriff in Wagtown.I have a developing theory on the 55% balance of Alliance Boots. There have been several clues dished out that the full deal for all the A/B marbles might close sooner than the announced window. Suppose such a deal was structured on a 100% stock basis, giving Pessina/KKR something like 25% of WAG's common shares. Then KKR/Pessina purchase another 26% to have full voting control, then take WAG private.

I have thoughts that I will not post publically on why this strategy might make sense for them. But the partial motivation would definitely include the path forward to making money with these assets.

Thoughts?
