I don't think Baxter will survive Trump's economic policies

I don't want to be a downer, but with everything going on in the world economy right now with the trade wars and the tarrifs, the stock market is not responding kindly. Last 5 days Baxter has gone from $34 to less than $28 and some change.

The good people have left, the ideas and creativity have been replaced with toxicity in both management and employees. We have leaders who have no understanding of the needs of healthcare communities we we are trying to serve, and we have massive debt.

I guess I feel lucky to still be here, but I can't help wonder how long Baxter will be able to survive like this. Our margins are not great right now anyway, and I am curious what these tariffs will do to our book keeping which will impact hiring and layoffs.
 


Yeah, dont know how we will survive this tarriff if it really goes through. 90% of the parts we use comes from OEMs that are located in Mexico & China. I dont see how we can pass these costs to the customers with GPO resigns we just had. We are basically fucked.
 




We all know this started during covid under low joe. Many top leaders bailed since, covid ended, the company did not recover which goes to show it was the leadership crippling the company not covid on its own. If leadership was doing their job the company would have rebounded as did other similar companies. NOT a Trump thing.

Nice try!!!
 


Agree, baxter was in good shape had cash what crippled us was Joes continual cost cutting and not investing in companies that had innovation all our products are products not brands. Not price flexing ability all shit commodity tender products

the OI will continue to spiral unless they sack 50% of workforce, i would start with GEM countrys and Europe. Bax is basically a US company now as that is the only country with a bloated Healthcare system that pays way too much for devices and products/drugs


And before a bunch of Amercians come on and defend the bloated sytem , your spend is high but your life expectancy is low compared to other western countrys not to mention you hold the crown for the worlds fattest nation

Technically Samoa, Tonga, Kuwait, others like Egypt and Qatar are fatter - USA is number 15. But lovin the generalization, you're right all 320 million of us think exactly the same and feel there's absolutely nothing that can be better. I'm glad you're here spittin all of these hard truths at us. I only wish we were as enlightened as you.

One thing i will generalize about Americans, and I'll argue we do this better than most other nations, is sarcasm.
 


Stock below $27. 70% down over last 5 years. Highly doubt current management team has a plan, this company is dying fast.

So funny how Joe constantly spouted "shareholder value" BS. I certainly dont see this supposed value. What a miserable executive he ended up being. History books will not be kind to him and his loser team

Every country fatter than you have populations smaller than Aloks IQ. And far as sarcasim goes depends what state your in , but the British probably equal you. As far as Amercians go I love them , very entertaining and particualry your political spectrum , watching republicans prey to Jesus that democrats dont get in to power is very amuzing. Hey i loved working at Baxter with Bob, under Joe it turned to shit , now i think rest of world as Amercians desrcibe it for Baxter is pretty Grim . I have options that strike at $66.31. $ 74.73. $ 75.75. $ 77.15. 85.23. $ 39.06.

When these were granted my manager(s) oh you will make loads of cash of these so your salary increase will be below inflation , the Joe Almeida Tax. Joes view you all get options that will make you rich so work hard and dont ask for salary increases.

Im not sure how he fucked up this company so badly. and as a result heather, reaz, Alok, Jeann Mason all need to be shown the door when we hire a proper CEO
 


Heather is so inefectual, does nothing , was a sound bite for Joe, she loved Joe, thoiught he was brilliant !
Heather here is your challenge "DO something "

Your tenure in Med del you did nothing . except hire alot of women (which is fine ) but i havent seen anything , innovation ? you use the term Innovation Bus ? where is it ? has it broken down ?

Your now Aloks boss , you once eluded to the fact you thought he was a phoney , well educate yourself in Pharma and realise we have nothing and fix it . Or sell the whole lot.

Compounding please ?

Hiring women is beneficial, but how many are truly competent and merit-based?

HK is transforming this company into a scene straight out of "The Devil Wears Prada"! While her intention seems to be empowering and uplifting diverse candidates, it often feels like many women in leadership roles were chosen more for their charm than their skills, which is certainly disappointing. As a passionate advocate for talent, it’s frustrating to witness so many incredible individuals—both men and women—deciding to walk away from this organization. HK may see herself as Wonder Woman, but the truth tells a different story. The potential here is staggering, and we deserve to tap into the true brilliance of our team!

I’m an ambitious woman manager on an exciting journey to transform my health! I'm diving into vibrant salads and enhancing my skin, all in hopes of catching HK’s eye and earning a spot in her inner circle. The thrill of this challenge fuels my passion, and I can’t wait to see where it leads!

I dont give a fuck about who is in the team , al li want is for all of you highly paid Deerfied Presidents to fix the shareprice it is #27 and al i see from heather Reaz and Alok , is rheotoric and travel , no stratgey no new products . Just recyclimg old ideas . I think all of them need to get fired and BAX has to start again

Oh as a side rant when i was in GLT Deerfield Hotel near airport they trotted out a "contrarian " investor who purchased a large chunk of bax share at $45 , as he believed it was a good value stock. At the time i remeber thinking i hope this fucker isnt part of my retirrment funds , now i look back and feel sorry for his investors


Joe and the 3 people mentioned above have DESTROYED shareholder value , fired 100s of people , whist having the audacity to bark orders at us , please new CEO throw them all out
 


How about we put the blame on the board? The same board that all makes 330-390k a year and gave themselves a 20% increase in base salary this last year...don't forget about paying for Joe and his dependents healthcare the next 2 years (10/31/2025-10/31/2027). They clearly have the shareholders/employees best interests in mind.

This is right here!!! 10,000%, yes. I'm not sure if you all saw the recent 10K filed; they have similar concessions like Joe to Heather, Raez, and Alok. They receive 18 months of healthcare and some salary guaranteed. Like WTF is wrong with this board.
 


That company will never bounce back… they all know it and just want to steal from the dead what they can… if you have shares then use then as toilet paper at least they will be worse something…
