As a public investor ordsprog

As a public investor, if you've seen a company do a couple of dividend recapitalizations, be on warning. You may be getting a company that's crippled with debt.

Just because a company has the capacity to take on debt does not mean that this is a perfunctory part of coming public. I just don't want to see all these debt-laden companies come out with money going right into the pockets of the private-equity firms, rather than for the benefit of the issuing company.

Will the company take another steep dividend increase? Will the company embark on a more sizeable share buyback program? Will the company make any corporate acquisitions? Pfizer could conceivably do all of the above.

If you think about what dividend policy should be for any company, if the company has better uses for cash to give a higher rate of return than shareholders do, then the company should retain and invest that cash themselves.

[He said the company has several lives.] As it exists today, it's selling at $8. It will earn 60 cents a share over the next 12 months, ... The company has no debt, tremendous excess cash flow, no research coverage, and it's a great database company.

[The franchisees had borrowed heavily to buy the company.] We were staring a 20% interest rate in the face, ... And so any excess cash didn't go to building doughnut shops. It went to pay off debt. But we beat all of our projections, got ahead on our debt, and by 1992 the company was in great financial shape.

The company doesn't have a financial crisis at hand and pays a handsome dividend. The question is, Does the company become more efficient selling and manufacturing its products?

It may be simply part of the maturation process of becoming an international company, ... But as an individual investor, you should think about whether you want to be in a company that makes these kinds of mistakes.

The company has not adequately invested in investor relations during the past couple of years. It's pretty obvious.

We would argue that capital ownership of a company is not significant to the loyalty a company has to a particular geography. When a foreign company acquires a U.S. company, vs. when a U.S. company acquires a U.S. company, there's often less job cuts because of less duplication.

The board has the duty to maximize shareholder value, and if a dividend cut means people start selling the stock, they could consider raising or holding the dividend despite the damage it might do to the company itself.

Any time a high-tech company goes for paying a dividend, they are telling you that they are maturing, that their industry is maturing. When you are a growth company you invest the cash in growing the business.

We think it is a step in the right direction. We think at $33 the stock is undervalued as a public company. There's an enormous amount of land that is not being recognized by being a public company.

The bottom line is that this transaction will dramatically change the financial profile of the company and significantly enhance investor confidence in the ability of the company to deliver future growth in its results.
