Ask yourself this...one, why did it take so long to replace him and second, why would Joiner leave if things were so great?
Who reports to who...is Ron Fisher his boss being VP and I would want my VP closing large deals, not a business manager...larger the deal, the more I would want more senior management involved...
In short, this is a PR about hiring someone. The PR has no substance, but at this point, they are throwing stuff out there and see if anything sticks for helps the PPS maintain some value.
Trade it, but still scary doing that...they release any more financing and even traders would be stuck with the descent...
