Hologic, Inc.'s CEO Praises Its Activist Investor Carl Icahn

Hologic (NSDQ:HOLX) CEO Steven MacMillan offered a glowing review to major stakeholder Carl Icahn, saying that activist investor is "not into our shorts at all."

MacMillan joined Hologic late last year amid something of a tremulous time, with activist investor Icahn nabbing up more than 12.6% of the company and demanding changes.

Hologic agreed to take on 2 new board nominees and made other changes in order to appease Icahn, but MacMillan maintained that the influence has done wonders for the company.
