The latest installment features Nominee Stacy Nieuwoudt, who spent her career as a senior energy and industrials analyst at Citadel and has served on the boards of multiple publicly traded energy companies. Stacy Nieuwoudt said:
- "I think energy investors are really focused on pure play companies that are focused on core businesses that are efficient, well run and (have) superior capital allocation. Investing and growing empires rarely is awarded in the energy space."
- "I think it's the fiduciary duty of every board and every management to consider portfolio optimization constantly… Companies are ever-evolving organisms and to not make sure that you have an optimized portfolio strategy is just inefficient."
- "Phillips 66 is a wonderful company with fantastic assets. … If we can change the corporate structure and unlock value, then I think that actually frees up every operation as a pure play to be more efficient, to be more competitive, and to be better positioned for the future. I'm really excited to be able to have that opportunity to help drive that transformation."
- "I've been covering the space for over 20 years, I've attended thousands of meetings with management teams. I've never had a management team suggest to me that their stock was fully valued. That just inherently highlights the disconnect between the investor mindset and the management."
