A stock price this low had some investors concerned that a hostile takeover of the retailer might become a possibility. The new CEO, Frank Blake, recognizing that the corporate culture would not sustain a profitable company, started to make changes within the organization after his hire in January of 2007. Nardelli had taken The Home Depot from 1,134 stores in 2000 to 2,000 stores in 2005, with a plan on opening another 400-500 additional stores from 2005 to 2010 (The Home Depot, 2005).
