Shortcode Render Stripped of required HTML

Wordpress 5.0.3 Shared LAMP Hosting

I'm devloping a plugin that requires a shortcode like this:

function my_shortcode() {
require_once( 'includes/functions.php' );
$my_text = '<pre id="myspecs>'.get_all_stats().'</pre>';
return $my_text;
}
add_shortcode('MyShortCode', 'my_shortcode');

When I insert [MyShortCode] into the page content, the get_all_stats() data are rendered, but pre html formatting rendered after the data, separately. Rendered source looks like this:

<div class="entry-content">
Mywordpressdata-all-in-a-jumble-over-multiple-lines-squashed-together...

<pre id="myspecs">\n\n</pre>
</div>

How can I tell WP to keep the data inside the pre html formatting?

This should fix it, 

function my_shortcode() {
ob_start();
  require_once( 'includes/functions.php' );
  ?>
  <pre id="myspecs><?php get_all_stats(); ?></pre>
  <?php
  return ob_get_clean();
}
add_shortcode('MyShortCode', 'my_shortcode');
