I'm not a big believer in these "super executives" having a significant effect on a firms intrinsic value. Especially as in this case where the business is pretty well fixed and just about a utility.
There are probably legitimate concerns over trends in the industry and CVC competition but selling just because of "key-man risk" just seems a bit over reactive.
