ValueAct claims they value transparency and respect.
Not so. If they did, they should have disclosed their management of Disney’s pension funds following Disney’s January 3 press release? Or when Mr. Morfit spoke at the Council of Institutional Investors conference? Or even in their presentation filed with the SEC on March 7?
But they kept mum.
