How does any of the shareholder class A or B board, how does the class A comp committee, how does the new investment group justify ANY exec bonus, severance, pay package after UOP loses a quarter of its total enrollment in one year The only justification for any payment for the highest drop in on total enrollment in UOP history is that some portion of the drop represents the implementation of admission standards (as Greg said in Q1 would be happening this year) and the remaining portion represents students graduating. Know what the answer is. Such a travesty!

Can YOU finish a SENTENCE without having a WORD in all CAPS? Love the emfaaaasis.
TE...squawk...TE...squawk...TE. It's just amazing too see how this PROVEN philosophy, that has been thoroughly shown to be destructive, is STILL-being pushed as some kind of important metric. "TE" is what DESTROYED the UOP....signing up ghetto rats, barrio waste, and trailer trash for "TE" is the sole reason why he UOP is going down...haaaarrrdddd. It doesn't matter what some UOP exec thinks about it, any LOGiCAL person can see that "TE", in itself, is 100% meaningless. Unbelievable that this place still exists itchy this amount of duuuhhhhh working there.
Uop is far too bloated and needs another RIF of roughly 1500-2000. "TE" Is only relevant when you enroll human waste that constantly drops. The uop needs to start focusing on qualiy, not quantity. One graduate is financially and reputationally better then three drops, even though "TE" says otherwise. The reason uop is dead is because of focus on "TE" at the expense of all else. But I don't expect a uop employee to understand that, REG anything for "TE", that sure worked well for ya.
Alright genius #2, if TE keeps declining (and accelerating), how do you maintain revenue, which may just be critical for a for-profit company? Oh that's right, just keep cutting costs to maintain profitability. And if you have no fcking clue as to what UOP's bottom will be for TE, for revenue, in the future, how do you value it for acquisition? Looks like the investment group bought into the enrollment crap fed to it by UOP. I do at least agree with you that the shthole is going down.
Hahahaha...still talking about TE as if it in itself means anything. No wonder this sh--hole is going down.
So 3rd quarter TE was 155.6k. UOP added NE of 19.4k in 4th quarter. And UOP ended up with 142.5k at end of 4th quarter. That means the difference, 32.5k, either graduated or left UOP between the end of the 3rd quarter and end of the 4th quarter. A 21% drop in TE quarter over quarter. That's impressive and a truly ominous sign for those of you considered variable costs, regardless if deal goes through. Profitability must be maintained for deal to go through so execs can make millions. And of course ongoing cost cutting will lead to TE growth maybe one day (yeah that's how it works).
I am so glad my last day was yesterday, I took out 10k pay cut to leave the Titanic
Deal won't go through. It's now the latest and greatest excuse for the lack of progress and movement on anything in many departments and colleges.
Someone is angry. And it is making others angry
Apologies if that last reply was beyond your mental capability, especially if you are on the biz dev team at Apollo, the team doesn't have any clue about valuation as evidenced by $270m on goodwill rotting on the balance sheet.
Please walk up to Greg and Tim to say TE is stupid. Why the f*ck do you think this company is 'valued' at $10/share in the deal? The university is now accelerating its way to the TE bottom. Look at the % declines over the past 2 years genius and see how it is accelerating. None of the execs and no one in the investor group knows where the bottom is. $10/share is an exceptionally gracious offer not knowing where the bottom is. Ask Joe about his target for the TE bottom he set last year that just got missed in rather dramatic fashion. But you just keep focusing on profitability and your individual goals to get bonused!
Bonuses aren't given for stupid things like "TE"...read the quarterly income statement for the $14 million profit in the last qtr. Since I KNOW you don't know the bonus metrics at the phoenix, please stop whining about things you don't have the mental capability to figure out. You still work there, what does that say about YOU? Just dial...SALESMAN.
That sounds balls on accurate, Maverick call the ball
Nothing like buying the titanic when the front half of the ship is already at the bottom of the ocean. The rats are already on the only lifeboats with their bonuses and vested restricted stock. The rats' severance packages and unvested restricted stock are swimming quickly to catch up. Good luck to those who remain on the stern of the ship. Hopefully the investment group can patch the stern to stay afloat (if the deal goes through).
