Needed Refresh of Products

[Florida Legend]

Not sure if M&A is on the table, but we are in desperate need of getting some adjunct products to bring us back into something of relevance.
There are several start-up out there that are ripe and we can combine them into a "new, refreshed" look. Plates and screws....Yawn. We need some niche things to keep the others out of the room. Stuff like nerve injury repair, small bone nails, CMC solutions, and possibly some would closure that is unique and can add to the case $$. ZB just spent big money on Paragon, so they will be focused on keeping/growing the Foot business. We can jump head first into UE/Hand and dominate once again.
Am I wrong?

You gotta be high. JNJ would rather put their money into T Bills than a slow growth segment that gets hammered on pricing year over year. DePuy Synthes is a dead (wo)man walking.

Agreed. The line needs to be refreshed. We have slipped several notch over the years. Let’s grab some new stuff.

How about more commission cuts combined with unreachable quotas -this will go a long way

Do you really think a product refresh is going to make a difference? "Go woke and go broke." suits the occasion,

I do. If you look at the portfolio, it is the same ole stuff. We need an injection of door opener products to get our momentum back. What I mean by door openers, is something different and not knock offs of other stuff out there. There are several start ups that have cool stuff and we can get them cheap versus something crazy that won't really help us. We have the team, just need some juice. Are you listening Marketing and Management?

Can you give specific examples? Maybe the top 10 acquisition targets as you see them.
