JANA Partners has called on The Cooper Companies' board to immediately start an external search for a new CEO, appoint a new board chair, and explore selling assets due to the company's ongoing underperformance and poor capital allocation. JANA criticized Cooper's recent earnings, forecasting issues, and strategic failures, highlighting a significant drop in shareholder confidence and a share price at a 10-year low. The activist investor also recommends revising compensation metrics and engaging consultants to improve cost savings. These actions aim to restore investor trust and improve the company's valuation and performance.
