He's been CEO since 2016, so I'm not sure that 5-1/2 years as CEO would be an abrupt departure.
He wasn't taking a salary either, so I don't see the drain on Company funds, other than clearly an indisputable lack of profitability that maybe he thought he'd give someone else a chance.
TC does like to sell shares at a premium. Most people like to, but if he can flip the switch in 6 months or so, I don’t think a shareholder will complain. He's got 6 months.
