An untainted view is a pretty solid company making pretty good financial returns (above industry average ebit margins) that unfortunately has suffered from too much interference from financiers and fund managers who though they knew how to run a glass business. This ‘strategic review’ is just window dressing (at shareholders expense) to deflect the blame for perceived failures from those same financiers.

Think it is more about going to be kicked out of the NZX50 in a week or so. Market cap too low to stay in and prob some funds trying to sell down with low liquidity.
