825 million (Casey Murray, Mike Santoro, Tom Nekouei, Christmas Meltdown)

The SWAPA Number

Today's SWAPA Number is 825 million. That's the negative impact the meltdown will have to our fourth quarter earnings according to an 8-K, the Company filed on January 6th. I don't have to tell you that SWAPA has been super busy communicating with our members over the last couple of weeks. Our reps and our execs have written extensively about the leadership failures, while our committees have been trying to make sure that you get the information you need to help navigate this crisis. And speaking of committees, I want to give a special shout out to Scott Plyler and his SRC team that gave us a great day by day breakdown last week of how and why the scheduling side of the operation failed so badly. So if you hadn't had a chance to watch that video, please, you really, really need to. Like I said, we've been all over the airwaves, including business cable and major news networks trying to get SWAPA's message across to the public. The problem with TV interviews is that they get edited down to just a little bit of a sound bite and a lot of the important parts tend to get left out. So on today's show, my usual SWAPA Number, host Amy Robinson and SWAPA Comm chair Mike Panebianco, sit down with all three execs for a conversation that covers many of the same points you've already heard from SWAPA, but there's a lot more detail and nuance that had been left on the cutting room floor.
