the have the molds and build new top caps being made in texas now. so guessing they bought the hull molds. DW changed the hulls for dw boats every few years anyways. would bet you see a new hull from them coming. also lots of other DW hulls out there under a different names after they moved on from them

I would not want to be working for a 22 year old CEO. You will just end up arguing with someone with no business or management experience. When I was in my early/mid 20s, I worked for some engineers in their early 30s who were promoted to managers. Horrible managers, all of them. They had no clue on how to develop employees. The company gave them a few management classes, and declared them managers. Putting a title on someone does not make them a manager. You don't really hit your stride as a manager until about age 40. Finally, I got transferred to a different department with older managers. Night and day difference. I was much happier, and performed better as an employee, too.

Better sell more merch............
Makes sense why he bought 100 million+ in real estate on the same street and all these goofy businesses outside their niche. Those "assets" will be able to be sold in the future to recoup some cash whereas the stock price may never return to $10 (or even $1)

Today’s close at 0.64.
Wonder if the journalists will change their reporting to “former billionaire”. Still a way to go before that though.
On a serious note, I remember people on here saying they thought it was a good buy. I hope they didn’t follow through

What happens when a 4.5X Billionaire quits and then writes a scathing letter against a newly minted billionaire......

In total, we handed the company in excess of $1.4 billion in June 2021, less than two years ago," he added. "Fast forward to today, this management team has expended nearly all this cash, and the company has not enjoyed any demonstrable improvement in its core profitability.
Better get that sweatpants marketing plan back on track!

Sure hope Skip took CASH and not the stock. Apparently the founder of LifeWallet was forced to take stock and a 300K job. Ruiz told him the stock was going from $10 to $30 or $40 so you can imagine how thrilled the guy is now with no job an stock worth 92 cents a share.
Could you imagine having a "gentleman's agreement" with Ruiz........
Critically, Ruiz told Menendez that the APA could not yet be signed for (unexplained) reasons pertaining to the public offering, but that he should consider the deal binding as a ‘gentleman’s agreement,’” Menendez wrote in the lawsuit. Menendez asserted that the deal over the asset purchase agreement was evidenced in the October 2021 public announcement.
