Business Outlook

Pros

Previous CEO was excellent: we would often get surprise days off, would be routinely recognized for going above and beyond, and culture was superb. You really felt like a family.

Cons

-Poor money management by previous CEO forced in a bean counter type CEO who absolutely gutted R&D along with other growth drivers (while leaving his previous company's endeavors/staff largely untouched). -Recently lost marketing authorization for one of their main revenue generating drugs in Europe. -Near-term success very dependent on approvals of sepiapterin and vatiquinone.
