the indications are that Zwanziger had a hissy fit at the time of the strategic review. the board werent letting him in initially and now they infer that, barring a transaction, he could head up the POC business and it would be floated off. He is indeed very well connected but I read that he was very focused upon M&A at Alere which ultimately didnt add much.
I have previously been involved in bid situations which seemed oddly mispriced..but the market turned out to be correct. Am looking forward to 20th sept and prob already hold enough.
