The executive made an unambiguous promise to shareholders to deliver at least $6.75 EPS in 2019. Shareholders have already shown that they are willing to vote against management unless things improve. If QC doesn't deliver at least close to its promise, there will be another takeover bid next year, with a very good chance of succeeding. The clock is ticking. Realistically the only option the board had is to cut deep and early.

They believe what they want to believe, facts be Dammed!
