This CEO has had to manage his OWN challenges & it is FAIR to say imho that he & his staff have navigated the company through some VERY DIFFICULT times.
Anyone who did a thorough review of the HH numbers, business model, etc.. should have realized that this company ALMOST WENT UNDER: "Twelve" could have completely decimated them!!
And yet, here they are still open for business, adding new markets with Redbox, Canada Walmart, more focused on appropriate market content & moving ahead more cautiously.
Could they DO MORE? We'll see what they say at the SHM. But they deserve some respect for HAVING MANAGED a very difficult period & brought the company back from a near-death experience!!!
If they can continue to build on the lessons-learned HHSE could be a VERY SURPRISING Up & Coming WINNER growing-forward.
It is FAIR TO SAY, they have come a LONG WAY,...a lesser company would have caved already &/or simply DILUTED THE HECK out of the stock to "GET THERE SOONER". HHSE took their lumps, stayed focused & have been clawing their way towards achieving the objectives they set out for the company. They deserve credit for that. ESPECIALLY for NOT diluting shareholders to HIGH, HOLY HELL!!!
