New surveillance commissioner in board of directors?

Not trying to stir anything, just curious how others see this.

CS sits on the board of Microsoft, and we’re seeing a strong push for Copilot internally.

What is the over/under betting for Arvind's golden parachute as IBM stock drops to $228 down from $324 in a year. I am going with $250,000,000.

Look at the raid of IBM (and imagine the totals for all the other do nothing "execs") below for the last 4 IBM CEOs.

No one knows anyone on the IBM BoD Board of Directors nor what they do other than show up for the steak and lobster dinners. Remember, Arvind is his own boss being both CEO and Chairman of the Board. That is perverse when the CEO is both.

IBM has a very fat and bloated BoD with 14 do nothings. All make approx $500,0000 a year. That is a cool $7,000,000 that goes to them every 12 months plus stock options all stolen from IBM shareholders and employees.

Gerstner started the IBM raid and walked away with over $400,000,000+ and laid off over 100,000 amazing people over 18 months (I was there IBM Chatbot cheerleader).

Gerstner's book "Who says elephants can't dance" should have been titled "Who says I can't rip off IBM in the largest corporate raid in hostory?".

Palmisano $271,000,000

Rometty $144,000,000

"AT&T's Free Cash Flow Declined Significantly Last Quarter". Stanks plan isn't working. Plan for a dividend cut down the road. Eliminating jobs isn't the answer. The Board must take immediate action, but all they do is collect a fat check.

Wondering if there is a case for breaches of fiduciary duties, duty of loyalty, and duty of care in the selecting of the short lived CEO. Any legal experts out there want to chime in?

Remember these guys? What a joke. These are what they claim they did below. I haven’t seen any of it. They just got in during low COVID stock price and then claim they were genius because stock price rose?

Action #1: Refresh the Board of Directors with energy experience.

Action #2: Impose greater long-term capital allocation discipline.

Action #3: Implement a strategic plan for long-term value creation.

Action #4: Align management compensation with value creation, not production growth.

This week Washington House hearings on Artic Frost... get ready... Vz will be back in news and the puzzle on CEO immediate termination further exposes incompetence at Vz BOD!

How in the world could the BOD and leadership disrupt the entire transformation plan by letting DF leave and still think the plan can succeed? Asinine.

If you have any Chevron shares vote for an independent board and against the Executive compensation.

Scott Sheffield of Pioneer wants to get a job as an ExxonMobil board member

Paula Price and General Reimer are off the Board of Directors and Christopher Quick (from Capital Management Board) is now on the Board. Not sure of the significance. I have not seen a press release to explain.

I never met Ms, Price, but the General was very smart. They were both in charge though when the damage was done.

I left 3 years ago, and man, I loved it at MDT. I had a great boss, great work, and just the best work friends ever. I was happy with my salary and benefits, too. I learned a lot and became a great professional largely because of my time there. They called me to go back last week.

And so it's devastating to say I told my ex-VP I wouldn't... because Geoff Martha is still CEO and for as long as that is true, it just isn't a stable place to work. I was privy to a lot of the details of RIF work and so much of it really was because of sh---y financial results, despite them calling it "OPTIMIZATION". Eventually they were even sacking really brilliant people that consistently delivered.

Really sad and they could turn it around if the board wasn't a bunch of rent-seekers and would do the right thing and get rid of GM.

The board should have a vote of no confidence in MF

P66 has announced that 2 new directors have been appointed to the Board of Directors.
I don’t know anything about them but Elliott says they’re pleased with the appointments.
If they’re pleased I’m pleased.

Voting Instructions

For the annual meeting of Texas Instruments, please record the following votes:

Proposal 1 – Election of Directors: AGAINST
I am voting against the election of the board of directors, including CEO Haviv Ilan. In my view, current leadership decisions are negatively impacting the company’s culture and employee morale. Strong leadership and culture are critical for sustaining innovation and long-term performance at Texas Instruments.

Proposal 2 – Advisory Vote on Executive Compensation: AGAINST
I am voting against the executive compensation package because compensation decisions appear misaligned with employee outcomes, particularly the reduction of profit-sharing for employees beginning in 2027.

Why has the board of directors not told super bowl legend Rob Gronkowski to save the company?

Maybe even try telling Rob to tell the group of 25 army officers that founded to stop rolling in their graves??

What a joke.

to sc--w stockholders. 13 % price drop in 5 days. You defenders will say market economics are to blame, nonsense! If they had built the franchise and gotten the stock to a level it should be this would be a blip, it is not. Remember PNC as a regional competitor close to us has grown and more than doubled their share price last 5 years. I wonder if there’s any angst in the C suite or by this Board? Probably not.

When will we find out if the Board approved the Purple Stock award for 2025?!?

Hopefully Tom will be out and we can begin to see stock price increase. His entire EVP suite has left he has eliminated everyone except his buddy who is now the chief revenue officer. When will he self reflect and realize that the problem is still here .. we’re hopefully moving in the direction of him leaving and new leadership taking over hopefully stronger better leadership because leadership is where bd fails miserably. It’s either pre Madonnas , or passive tone deaf useless VP’s who are so out of the touch with the plants and the business. It’s time to

A quick reminder: the board needs to fund Jeff’s $130M options package.

The board has toppled Hans the ringmaster. Without his costume and whip in hand the Tiger gets run of the show. What a welcome turn of events.

Appears that their plan to move people to Edmonton is about to backfill on a listed company that makes billions of dollars every year which is about to fail. So many people have said no to the move that I’ve heard that we have about 200 job openings that they need to fill with key critical roles empty. Plus they don’t even have the licence to start the Edmonton office build yet so YE27 has not chance. So the lack of results , lack for strategic foresight and impact that the long term bottom line; does this make JW and the board NSI?

It’d be a pipe dream to think the Board of Directors would boot SK with another dismal year on tap for 2026 and replace him with a non-Japanese executive, but…

If you could nominate someone outside of CUSA to replace SK, who would you choose?

This company needs fresh perspectives and true leaders who can thrive in challenging markets.

They are the worst business has had to offer. That last CEO who shall not even be named..HAS NO SHAME.

Hearing the BOD has booked out all conference rooms in the S&T floor at NYHQ for the entirety of this week- cuts coming rather soon?

Blue Cross Blue Shield of North Dakota and Cambia Health Solutions will affiliate. North Dakota regulators approved the strategic affiliation. The affiliation takes effect February 1. Dan Conrad becomes Cambia's chief administrative officer, and Lacey Bergh is the new BCBSND market president. Policyholders will keep their current health care coverage and BCBSND insurance cards. BCBSND will also retain its local plan name and board of directors. Cambia will manage and operate the North Dakota company's policy, claims, and IT functions.

Does anyone know what the collective pay packages including base pay, incentive comp, deferred comp, and perks collectively on the ELC ? How about the main Board of Directors ? How much do they make ?

Smart minds would bet they had to keep market cap (stock price) at certain point due to covenants in divestiture. Otherwise deal would have been off table. Board needs to start acting like a board

Any news on how the meetings are going?

Our Board are directly culpable for the situation we now find ourselves in. It is how corporate governance works.

My question: when will the market, activists etc hold them accountable and force change. It needs to happen.

What do you all think of Mikes email this morning that he won't won't serve as chairman after his term is up? I got to believe that the rest of the board and Ammit wanted it that way. Maybe paving the way for a sale?

Hans updated his linkedin resume. I remember they told us Hans was going to still be a Special Advisor on the BOD when he was removed from his job. We all scratched our heads when they replaced Lowell with a CEO who had been removed from his previous job. Why on earth would they still keep him around as a special advisor? Do they ask him his thoughts and then do the opposite of what he says? It's criminal that people are losing their jobs and this meatball is still around.

William H. Rogers Jr.: Chairman and Chief Executive Officer.
Jennifer S. Banner: Executive Director, University of Tennessee Haslam College of Business.
K. David Boyer Jr.: CEO, GlobalWatch Technologies Inc..
Dallas S. Clement: President & CFO, Cox Enterprises.
Linnie M. Haynesworth: Retired Sector VP, Northrop Grumman Corporation.
Donna S. Morea: CEO, Adesso Group, LLC.
Charles A. Patton: Manager, Patton Holdings, LLC.
Jonathan Pruzan: Co-President, Pretium Partners (joined May 2025).
Agnes Bundy Scanlan: President, The Cambridge Group LLC.

Does the board face any legal risk given that they haven't acted in the best interest of the company?

MF has been in position and seen through this entire DEBACLE! Frankly, I take offense with him sitting on stage presenting 101 corporate Finance - we all went to college and understand how it works. Do your job and EXPLAIN the changes we are making to navigate this storm and improve.

Under MF, our stock price has TANKED… not a great outcome for a CFO.

WAKE UP NIKE BoD !!

What a joke of a management committee, board of directors and the government for letting a US company bring IOL (100 year old company) to the s**.

What happened to corporate separateness? Now TG and DW have plans to exploit Canadian molecules, hose the minority interest investors (upwards of $500M of value based on rough estimates) and set up a wholly owned shell Trading shop in Canada in 2026.

Again, is the IOL board of directors asleep? Critical jobs are being migrated south to Houston at a higher cost and at the same time decimating fundamental knowledge that’s required for any stand alone O&G company which is a huge risk. How about the provincial and federal governments? Canadian taxable income is about to be stripped for the US to benefit. At this rate, all weak leadership contributing to this mess should be managed out of India in the “Global Hub”based on the lack of long term value they bring to the company and how far they are from the real Canadian business.

@ the government and BoD - wake up and block this immoral trade shop from starting up and exploiting Canadian molecules at the expense of the independent shareholders. Audit the s*** out of any proposals being presented including risk to long term value to the company. The move of Calgary head office to Strathcona Refinery and lack of diligence assessing the econs and long term risk to the company due to losing its top talent was already a disgrace.

He likes to hire cheap Indian labor. Good Luck Americans. You are going to need it!
