It has been the case that journalists have in the past stated that Boris Johnson is a clever politician.
Personally I have seen zero evidence of this, and am certain I am not alone in my PoV.
What I want tomorrow is to see David Allmond become the raw CEO we knew we were getting, making some joined up specific strategic decisions, creating actionable targets with timescales.
Having helped himself to a 100 day unannounced wander around the company, - leaving us all asking where has the leadership of this company gone, - he creates a nervy unremarkable first video that leaves a great deal to be desired in terms of delivery.
The image created is similar to one that Mel Smith & Griff Rhys Jones created in the film 'Morons from outer space' in which low IQ friendly aliens disappointed the expectations of earth people.
All that needs to be blown away with crisp accurate strategic decision making about non-covid 19 Point of Care products, who they will appeal to, and how they will retain the gross margins we expect from sale of our products.
I am assuming R&D have been busy on the most important projects to make the Q4 target for launch a reality.
If we are to be partnered by others on our journey, we need to know about those other parties, and the strategic nature of the partnership(s), - because that is how we can judge whether we have a savvy CEO or a moron in charge.
I dislike the present scenario of being invested in a secret society.
My original investment was not in such an entity, but NCYT has assumed that status since I became one of many trapped by the falling share price, waiting for the sp improvement whilst less information is provided.
If we have signed white label deals, all we need to know is that they exist, which continent they are in, and to see income from these deals identified in future accounting.
RNS 29.07.2021 - David Allmond, CEO-elect of Novacyt, commented:
"I am excited to be joining Novacyt at a pivotal phase in its development and I am looking forward to building upon Graham's outstanding work with the business over the past 13 years.
Novacyt is poised for its next phase of growth and I am confident I can lead the Company effectively through this period,
working closely with the excellent management team and Board to make a significant contribution to global health and deliver sustained and ongoing value to our shareholders."
High achievers in place, sustained and ongoing shareholder value awaited.
The floor is David's, que spotlight and drumroll.
No sign of friendly aliens yet.
