Hawthorne is a bit passive as a promoter from my observations. Maybe he's different on the firing line but he needs to inspire based on all his business wins.
Acquiring atml for a song at a crucial time for UNXL, morphing the tech into a marketable product that has attracted multiple new design wins, streamlining the manufacturing process with improved margins, all big deals that barely go noticed.
His actions have not spoken loader than his words. He needs either to speak louder or provide us with an action that is undeniable to the markets.
We are all frustrated at this point.
Enough with events that are a drag on the pps. May 18th should be a watershed moment, if he has the talent to make it so.
With the proposed ramp, he should leverage all he can out of it.
