Report by Paragon Intel

WBA’s strategy is stale and increasingly disintermediated. It requires a complete pivot to maintain relevancy, but new CEO Roz Brewer’s lack of strategic vision and relevant experience positions her poorly to implement such a change. She will continue the strategy set by domineering Chairman Stefano Pessina and multiple overly tenured executives/directors averse to change. WBA's stock has rallied 15% since the announcement of Brewer’s appointment and trades above CVS Health on both a PE and EV/EBITDA basis, despite slower growth, similar leverage and worse competitive positioning.
