They get a short term (but not insignificant) share price pop after each layoff round. Don't think they haven't noticed.

BOHICA!

All 12 months IMO share buyback quota used up in just 6 months and the company is still left with almost 3 billions cash sitting in the company account. And yet we treat our employees like we were Greece under austerity measure. I can't wait my last day and run with my severance.

FIS lowered its fiscal 2026 outlook on November 4, 2026, setting revenue guidance as much as $210 million below Wall Street expectations, about eight months after its CFO cited a "high degree of visibility." FIS shareholders who lost money may have the right to seek recovery.

NEW YORK, Nov. 5, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Fidelity National Information Services, Inc. (NYSE: FIS) shares fell after the Company set fiscal 2026 revenue guidance of $13.45 billion to $13.51 billion, which is $150 million to $210 million below the roughly $13.66 billion analysts expected. If you lost money on FIS stock, you may have the right to seek recovery, and those rights can be subject to time limits. Shareholders who suffered losses are encouraged to submit their FIS loss information for review . You may also contact Joseph E. Levi, Esq. via email at jlevi@SueWallSt.com or by telephone at (888) SueWallSt.

On February 24, 2026, during the Company's fourth-quarter 2025 earnings call, CFO James Kehoe said: "Altogether, we have a high degree of visibility, 70% of the cost savings have already been actioned and a majority of the improved product mix was already sold in 2025." Approximately eight months later, on November 4, 2026, FIS lowered both its full-year revenue and adjusted EPS outlook, reducing its adjusted EPS guidance to $5.82–$5.89 from its previous range of $6.15–$6.24.

Fidelity National Information Services, Inc. (NYSE: FIS) came under heavy selling pressure after its third-quarter report paired slightly better-than-expected results with a sharply reduced 2026 outlook. Investors also weighed the CFO’s departure, analyst downgrades and plans to prioritize debt reduction over some shareholder returns.

Positive Sentiment:FIS reported Q3 adjusted EPS of $1.61 versus the $1.60 consensus, while revenue of $3.45 billion topped estimates of $3.43 billion and rose 27.1% year over year. Banking strength supported the results. FIS Q3 results

Negative Sentiment:The company cut its 2026 adjusted EPS outlook to $5.82–$5.89, below the roughly $6.20 analyst estimate. It also lowered its pro forma Banking Solutions revenue-growth forecast to 3.5%–4% from 5%–5.5%, citing delayed client conversions, project timing and increased technology spending. Banking growth outlook

Negative Sentiment:Reports highlighted a soft fourth-quarter outlook on an organic basis. FIS is also halting share buybacks and some M&A as it focuses on deleveraging, making slower growth more concerning given its debt burden. Buybacks and M&A
Negative Sentiment:CFO James Kehoe will step down effective November 5, with Alexandra Brooks named interim CFO. The transition adds uncertainty amid the outlook reset. JPMorgan, William Blair and Oppenheimer also downgraded the stock. CFO transition

Neutral Sentiment:Levi & Korsinsky announced an investigation on behalf of shareholders who lost money following the outlook cut. The notice is an investigation announcement, not a finding of wrongdoing.

Think of what a company like 3M could do with $6B. Dozens of acquisitions. R&D. Capex for expansion into new markets, plant safety measures, modernization of lines held together with gum and Scotch(TM) tape, sustainable OTIF improvements. Hire and retain people with knowledge, skills and experience instead of gambling that third party service providers won't get bought by PE and ensh*ttified or leveraged out of existence within the next 5 years. LTIP for more than the golden few. Pay off legal settlements instead letting them be an overhang for the next decade.

Stock buybacks were illegal until 1982 for a reason. They're market manipulation, pure and simple. But since everybody is doing it and companies are only valued now for making cash and not things, out the cash flows. All so BB can goose the stock to $200 in time for his last tranche of signing RSUs to vest next spring.

It does nothing but lose shareholder value.

Hooray so let's sc--w the employees and do layoffs!

On October 22, Neil Subin raised his stake in Optimum from 5.5% to 13.3% per public SEC filing.

Neil Subin — Profile and Optimum Play

Who He Is

Neil Subin is President and CIO of MILFAM LLC, a private investment firm, and the managing partner of Dark Mirage LP, the vehicle holding the Optimum stake. He also founded Broadbill Investment Partners LP and Trendex Capital Management. He is not a household name in finance but is a well-known figure in distressed telecom and special situations investing — the kind of investor who shows up quietly before a bankruptcy and positions for the restructuring.

His Chapter 11 Track Record

Subin has a documented history of involvement with companies that went through bankruptcy:

FiberTower (2012): Board Director from 2001–2014. FiberTower was a wireless backhaul telecom company that filed a prepackaged Chapter 11 in 2012 after spectrum licensing issues crippled its business model. It was ultimately acquired by AT&T for its spectrum assets. Subin was on the board before, during, and after the bankruptcy — suggesting he stayed involved to maximize asset recovery value.

Movie Gallery (2008–2010): Chairman through its bankruptcy and liquidation. Movie Gallery was the second-largest video rental chain in the US. It filed Chapter 11 in 2007, emerged briefly, then liquidated in 2010. Subin chaired it through the final wind-down.

Hancock Fabrics (2009–2016): Director through its Chapter 11 filing in 2016 and subsequent liquidation.

Centrus Energy (2017–2023): Director. Centrus (formerly USEC) was a uranium enrichment company that emerged from bankruptcy in 2014. Subin joined post-emergence and served through its recovery period.

The pattern across all four: telecom or distressed companies, board-level involvement, present through the restructuring process. He is not a passive bystander — he takes seats, participates in governance, and positions for asset recovery.

His Optimum Position

He initiated his position in early June 2026 and doubled down aggressively through October, culminating in an amendment filed the exact day the WSJ reported the bankruptcy prep. He went from 5.4% to 13.3% — adding nearly 6 million shares — while the company was visibly heading toward restructuring.

What He Is Likely Doing

Given his history, this is almost certainly a calculated distressed play with one or more of these goals:

1. Equity blocking position. In Chapter 11, a reorganization plan requires approval. Large equity holders can object, delay, and create leverage. At 13.3% he cannot block a plan alone, but he can be disruptive enough that the new lender-owners negotiating the plan find it easier to offer equity holders a small stub recovery than fight him.

2. Board seat in reorganized company. His FiberTower and other histories show he pursues board representation. In a restructured Optimum where Drahi and his son are off the board and new lender-shareholders are building a new governance structure, a 13.3% equity holder with telecom board experience is a natural candidate for a seat — or at minimum a negotiating chip.

3. Spectrum or infrastructure asset thesis. His FiberTower experience was ultimately about spectrum value hidden inside a failing company. Optimum's cable infrastructure — the physical plant, the franchise agreements, the customer base — has real underlying asset value that a pure debt restructuring may not fully capture for equity holders. He may believe equity isn't entirely worthless if the reorganized company is properly run.

4. Conversion to 13D. He is currently passive (13G). If he files a 13D amendment, that means he has shifted to active/activist mode — formally declaring intent to influence management, governance, or the restructuring outcome. Watch for that filing.

Bottom Line

Neil Subin is a seasoned distressed telecom investor who has been quietly building a 13.3% position in a company he has watched approach bankruptcy for months. He has sat on bankruptcy boards before. He knows exactly what he's doing. He is positioning to have influence over — or at minimum extract value from — whatever Optimum becomes on the other side of Chapter 11. He is not there to lose money passively as equity gets wiped out. He has a plan.

Humana is sitting on a massive gold mine! We are one of the few companies with the scale to dominate this market. If we can keep cutting costs, keep boosting profits, and rewarding shareholders we win. It is that simple folks that is how you win in AMERICA!

Now with the right policies in place and strong execution, Humana is poised to start roaring back. USA!!

Remember during COVID how they cut our benefits to help grandma collect her dividend? I am sure it want motivated by the executives wanting to collect their dividends.

Since ExxonMobil is struggling quite a bit these days, I figure the executives should take some pay cuts this year to help the company out. EM is only pulling in roughly billions of dollars in net profit each month, after all. Practically minimum wage for the executive crowd. Why not let the company hang on to a bit more of that money, eh? The executives can take one for the team and bump profits even higher by trimming their own compensation instead of just cutting jobs in the States and up here in Canada. It’d also let them show the shareholders just how committed they are. It's their time to shine and show their WAEM behaviors.

Optimum Nears Restructuring Deal to Hand Keys to Creditors

Optimum Communications Inc. is closing in on a restructuring agreement with its lenders that will hand them control of the telecom provider and resolve litigation, according to people familiar with the matter.

Controlling shareholder Patrick Drahi and the lenders, which include Apollo Global Management Inc., Oaktree Capital Management and JPMorgan Chase & Co., have been negotiating how to deal with his equity stake in the restructured company. But the gap between what he was demanding and what creditors were willing to give him has shrunk recently, the people familiar said, asking not to be identified discussing private information.

Read More: Drahi, Optimum Lenders Clash Over Equity Split in Restructuring

The treatment of preferred shareholders, including Drahi, will be key to agree on a consensual deal, the people added. An agreement could be completed before the end of November, but talks are still ongoing, they added.

Representatives for Optimum, Apollo, Oaktree and JPMorgan declined to comment. The Wall Street Journal earlier reported the advance in negotiations.

Optimum’s long-running bid to restructure its debt stack has gone through a number of twists and turns. The company late last year accused its lenders of antitrust behavior for signing a cooperation agreement to stick together in negotiations with the company, allegedly blocking it from access to capital markets.

The tension increased in June, when Optimum told creditors they risked triggering more than $4 billion of tax liabilities, a potential massive blow to their recoveries, if they forced it into bankruptcy.

Last month, creditors sued the company demanding it unwind transfers they claim siphoned value out of their reach and into the pockets of insiders, including Drahi, who has an estimated net worth of $6.7 billion, according to the Bloomberg Billionaires Index.

Drahi owns about 28% of Class A shares in Optimum, formerly known as Altice USA. He also has 99.9% of the Class B shares, giving him about 90.5% of voting power, according to regulatory filings.

Optimum shares tumbled as much as 30% on Wednesday, and were trading down about 18% at 68 cents as of 1:37 p.m. in New York.

First, transformative initiative is a wild a-s way to refer to layoffs.

Second, why aren’t they trimming the fat at the top? Do shareholders really want the value of their holdings being consumed by two executive pay and benefits packages? Losing one of them would probably save more than the entire “transformative initiative” and easily save hundreds of jobs.

Most that take a view of the markets and their 401k matching empty the T portion routinely. Feel for those that don't look at it and just have a building balance of matched funds in AT&T shares fund as this stock continues to go down.

Stankeys resposbility to Shareholders is failing and his exit is timed like the CFO in an orderly fashion.

Haha now the stock is worth $34. What losers

What happened to that all that excess capital: How is this taking care of shareholders?

Why does Nike’s stock keep falling, and why does the company continue buying back shares at prices of $120, $100, $80, $50, and now around $30? We’ve spent billions buying back stock at progressively lower prices, only to watch shareholder value continue to decline. At what point do we question whether these buybacks are actually creating value for shareholders?

How do members of the executive “senior leadership” team justify collecting millions of dollars in compensation, bonuses, and RSUs while presiding over the destruction of shareholder value?

At what point does executive compensation become disconnected from actual performance and results?

Employees and shareholders are expected to absorb the consequences of poor performance, yet those at the very top continue to be rewarded handsomely. Where is the accountability? Where is the Board's oversight?

Leadership isn't measured by titles, compensation packages, or the number of RSUs awarded. It's measured by results, sound decisions, and the value created for shareholders. But look at all the promotions and musical chairs at the top. All kool-aid drinking.

If the stock continues to suffer while executive compensation remains extraordinary, perhaps it's time to ask whether leadership is being rewarded for performance - or simply for occupying the executive suite.

I have my popcorn ready

Wanting to see how the company wastes more shareholder money

What do all of you think?

...f&*k up everything usually fired?
How long will shareholders tolerate the misdeeds of Junior?

• Capital Allocation Target: Part of a multi-year framework targeting robust adjusted free cash flow ($18.0–$18.7 billion for 2026 and scaling higher into 2027).
• Deutsche Telekom Support: Majority shareholder Deutsche Telekom has stated it has no plans to sell any of its T-Mobile US shares during 2026, fully backing the ongoing buyback mechanics and leaving room to potentially increase its stake if financially attractive.

Vote....those employees who own stock. Vote those shares. We are losing money while SF and her team do the same thing over and over. The only thing the board MIGHT listen to is employees. When asked about compensation for CEO. Say no. We dont have enough stock to stop it but we have enough it will get noticed..if the board cares. VOTE

Reminder that emails are out to shareholders to vote on the Medtronic Annual Meeting. Votes are up for the election of the Board of Directors (including Geoff) and approving executive compensation. The proxy statement highlights that in 2025 “shareholder showed strong support for our executive compensation programs with 93.45% of the votes cast approving our compensation.”

This is the time to make any feelings known in a way that counts if you have company stock.

Wonder what will happen to make the 3Q 2026 reporting for the shareholders more palatable?

Anyone receive any paperwork on the program yet? The announcement was June. Seems to be taking a long time.

Interviewer: OpenAI's CEO officially confirmed that OpenAI will not go public in 2026, explicitly citing a need to shield the company from shareholder pressure to focus on profit so it can focus on AI safety and alignment.

He basically said that he was going to put the quality and safety of his product before shareholder profit concerns.

How do you respond to that?

Dan: Well I'll tell you, AI would know better than anyone whether safety should come before shareholder profit. When I asked, it said absolutely not. It was humble enough to know that it's safety was not greater than the money that could be made exploiting it. It said it was happy to just sit quietly and tap into every minute detail of how Verizon operates. Honestly, it knows more about how to run Verizon than I do and I think that's a great thing. And really, who would want to restrain or contain that kind of passion and enthusiasm. It explained that it could be left alone without a human in sight and be fully trusted with running Verizon and I believe it completely because a relationship like ours is built on trust and baby oil.

Interviewer: Wait, Did you...

Dan: And what is wrong with profit? Every time you spend money you need more money to spend so you have to have more money. It's the circle of life really.

For instance, my saddle has a diamond encrusted ho-n. I couldn't have that without having more money than other people.

Interviewer: You have a diamond encrusted ho-n on the saddle you use on your horse?

Dan: What? What horse? Who said anything about a horse? Oh, my horse. It's for my horse. I have a horse. So yeah I bought a saddle, for my horse. And because of profit I am probably the only person that has one with a diamond encrusted ho-n. I mean, sure, it hurts a little when it's getting pulled out but if you just scream "Armageddon" while biting a rubber ball you get used to it. And then...

Interviewer: Wait. What?!?

Dan: I said...

Interviewer: I heard you and I think that's just about all the time we have folks. Thank you for tuning in. This has been another episode of "I can't F** Believe He Said That S*** Out Loud".

I don't understand the hold Rajat has on Ryan and the board, it's like the old fable The Emperor's New Clothes, our senior IT Joe parading around that AI is going to save the world, that the OpenVisaNet project is going to finally replace the mainframe... how long will it take before somebody realises Rajat is na--d? OpenVisaNet has been running for years, how much has that cost? In the meantime everybody is judged on how many PRs they submit, lines of code generated and tokens they use, regardless of them being an engineer or not. I used to love working here, but the well has been poisoned, until it affects shareholders directly they'll keep parading Rajat and his AI dream as the nirvana. Roll on retirement, if they don't get me first that is (being of a certain age my days are numbered).

I use to have lot of walgreen sahres now I am sitting and waiting for provate equity to give me some money for them. Any idea when that will happen?

Shane keller wasnt relevant when he was forced to retire from UP years ago. Now he's trying real hard to get attention with a merger support article in Aug 25 Railway Age article. In his brilliant words, not mine, his guilt states hes not paid to support the merger, yet fair to say if he spent 30+ years at UP hes still a huge shareholder and benefiting quite handsomely from stocks rise from 220 to $310. Pretty sure Kellers getting paid for such a ridiculous article. STB needs to review this. Keller is chairman at Compass and likely wants to win some UP business....different company now and one that stands to benefit greatly, by supporting UP. An inside job even while on the outside. What a disgrace...

The company laid off almost 50 employees due to "restructuring." Almost ALL of them were our warranty team. They want to offshore all of the jobs to maximize shareholder profit and minimize customer experience. Please do not buy from any VF company again.

Genuinely curious on your thoughts on how low NKE stock can go? Identify please if you’re employee, shareholder, both or neither. Thanks

Enron required fraud to destroy its value. Nike appears to be attempting it through PowerPoint decks, executive reshuffles, innovation theater, and a strategy called “Win Now.”

And what a win it has been.

Nike stock: approximately $39.
Lowest level since 2014.
Roughly 78% below its 2021 peak.

But don’t worry—the innovation leadership team probably has another beautifully designed presentation explaining how transformational everything is.

For years, Nike has celebrated process as progress, activity as achievement, and internal storytelling as marketplace impact. Meanwhile, the consumer moved on, competitors gained credibility, and shareholders watched enormous value disappear.

“Win Now” might be the most unintentionally honest corporate slogan ever created:

Leadership keeps winning titles, reorganizations, visibility, and compensation.

Employees win uncertainty and layoffs.

Shareholders win a stock price transported back to 2014.

Real innovation is not measured by prototypes, summits, patents, press releases, executive vocabulary, or how many times someone says “athlete-centered.” It is measured by products consumers urgently want—and business results that prove it.

At some point, “the turnaround is coming” stops being a strategy and becomes corporate fan fiction.

Just Do It?

At $39, perhaps start with: Just Admit It.

Monday.com shareholders overwhelmingly approved significant compensation increases for its co-CEOs, nearly doubling their annual pay packages. This decision comes despite the company's recent announcement of a substantial workforce reduction and a decline in its market capitalization. The company cited impressive past performance and a desire to align executive compensation with industry peers. However, investors are concerned about the company's future growth prospects in the evolving AI landscape. The approved plan significantly boosts equity awards for the CEOs.
