Last month, Inc. (NYSE:AI) announced that it was searching for a new CEO after Siebel tendered his resignation due to health reasons, effective upon a successor assuming his post. 'After being diagnosed with an autoimmune disease in early 2025, I have experienced significant visual impairment,' he was quoted as saying last month.

AAON (AAON) Tumbles 10.49% as Earnings Disappoint

We recently published . AAON, Inc. (NASDAQ:AAON) is one of the best-performing stocks on Monday. AAON tumbled by 10.49 percent on Monday to close at $72.07 apiece following a disappointing earnings performance in the second quarter of the year. In its updated report, AAON, Inc. (NASDAQ:AAON) said net income declined by 70 percent to $15.5 million from $52 million in the same period last year. Net sales slightly dipped to $311 million from $313 million year-on-year, dragged down by an 18-percent decrease in net sales from its Oklahoma segment. In the first half of the year, net income decreased by 50.9 percent to 44.78 million from $91.2 million in the same comparable period, while net sales increased by 10 percent to $633.6 million from $575.7 million year-on-year. 'Our second quarter results fell short of our expectations and do not reflect the high standards we set for ourselves as an organization,' said AAON, Inc. (NASDAQ:AAON) CEO Matt Tobolski. Pixabay/Public Domain 'The underperformance was primarily driven by poor operational execution, mainly associated with the implementation of our new ERP system at our Longview, [Texas] facility. The April go-live of the new system directly impacted production of both finished products and coils at Longview. Since Longview supplies coils to our Tulsa, [Oklahoma] facility, this also limited Tulsa's expected production ramp. We are taking immediate and targeted actions to address these issues, strengthen execution, and ensure we are better positioned to deliver consistent results in the future,' he added.

Experts from Witherite Law Group say Autonomous Trucks are Not Ready for Texas Roads

DALLAS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Attorney and truck safety advocate Amy Witherite warns that autonomous trucks still face serious safety gaps—acknowledged by their own developers, confirmed by independent studies, and underscored by industry experts. Waabi CEO Raquel Urtasun has called her company's simulator-based approach 'provably safe,' saying real-world testing in the millions of miles 'is nowhere near what would be required to provide the rigorous evidence necessary for a comprehensive safety case.' Professor Philip Koopman of Carnegie Mellon University, one of the world's leading autonomous vehicle safety researchers, cautions that true safety requires ultra-reliability: 'Safety isn't about working right most of the time. Safety is all about the rare case where it doesn't work properly. It has to work 99.999999999% of the time. AV companies are still working on the first few nines, with a bunch more nines to go.' Witherite says those two statements highlight the gap between marketing promises and operational reality: 'Even the most advanced companies admit they're far from testing at the scale needed to prove safety under real-world conditions. Experts are telling us this technology is still working out the basics—so putting it on Texas highways is reckless.' This comes as Aurora Innovation begins nighttime runs of its self-driving trucks on the Dallas–Houston route—still with a human observer in the cab 'though no manual intervention is required'—and Texas A&M Transportation Institute warns that AI-driven systems remain limited by their programming, sensor range, and narrowly defined operational design domains. Meanwhile, FMCSA's 2023 Pocket Guide to Large Truck and Bus Statistics shows Texas is not only the deadliest state for large truck crashes in raw numbers—with 821 fatalities in 2021—but also has a per-mile fatality rate of 0.29 per 100 million vehicle miles traveled, well above the U.S. average of 0.19. While a few states have even higher per-mile rates, Texas still ranks in the higher-risk tier nationally and far exceeds states like California despite having a smaller population. In 2023 alone, Texas recorded 650 deadly large-truck crashes—52% more than California, the next highest state. 'Texas can't afford to be the test track for unproven technology,' Witherite said. 'We already have the highest truck crash fatality numbers in the country and a safety rate worse than the national average. Until autonomous trucks can meet the extreme reliability experts demand, they have no place in live traffic.' Amy Witherite is the founding attorney of Witherite Law Group and a nationally recognized traffic safety advocate. She has represented hundreds of families affected by trucking collisions.
