Info Aqualung Financial Troubles

[fred32176]

Corporate bios are always glowing. No one appears to any ties to the scuba industry and they all appear to be finance guys, no engineers. If even one was a German or Swiss engineer with a long history of scuba development, you could have hope things would work out OK.

These guys, with no scuba industry experience and no personal or professional knowledge of the scuba market before taking their position, are exactly who capitalists that play number games and don't really care which companies they own recover and which don't put in charge. The only question is how long will aqualung linger around.

"Spelt" in American English means: "hardy wheat: a hardy variety of wheat of inferior quality, sometimes grown in mountainous regions."

Spelt - Wikipedia

Spelt also has that meaning in British English.

Like “sole” - same word, multiple meanings. Just to confuse English students and non native English speakers.

So there is no sole meaning for the word sole?

Nor soul, for me it’s a car
For others it’s a fantasy.

No you don't. So far it's been stuff about Mens Hair styles and grooming products for all I can see. I just wish the OP would get a move on and make his points LOL

I’m shocked no LVMH/Sephora staff made their way over to AL and made it a luxury brand.

Paying $60-70M (~£48m-56m) for a company with a book value of £6.67m and currently losing £1.4m/year (per most recently available financials)....... would be a profoundly poor business decision.

A lot of the dive business seems to be founded on bad decisions by people who think that business as usual means doing it like its 1980. . .

Just sayin'
