"Genco equity panel sees $97-$467M of equity value in company" $GNKOQ $GNK

From leveraged loan:

  • According to a June 20 affidavit filed with the bankruptcy court overseeing the case by Rothschild’s Neil Augustine, the panel’s valuation expert, that TEV results in a value in excess of claims that would be available for distribution to equity holders of $97-$467 million, with a mid-point of $282 million.
  • Assuming 43.57 million shares outstanding, that translates into a per-share value of $2.23 to $10.72, with a mid-point of $6.47.
  • under the company’s proposed reorganization plan, the reorganized equity is to be distributed to holders of the company’s 2007 credit agreement and convertible note claims, as well as to participants in a contemplated $100 million rights offering. Current shareholders are to receive a “gift” distribution of warrants to acquire up to 6% of the reorganized equity at a strike price based on an equity value of $1.295 billion. The warrants are valued at $30-36 million, or $0.67-0.81 per share of the company’s current equity
  • The hearing is scheduled to resume today and tomorrow in bankruptcy court in Manhattan, at which time the equity committee will make its case. These sessions promise to be more contentious.

On Monday June 23, 2014, The loose monetary policies of the world central banks have finally stirred up inflation and have finally resulted in turning investment sentiment from greed to fear, specifically fear that the world central banks’ monetary policies have crossed the rubicon of sound monetary policy, and have “money good” investments bad.

Doug Noland described money manager capitalism as being characterized by wildcat finance, where bankers waived magic wands of credit creation. The new normal economic experience of regionalism will be one of wildcat governance where regional fascist leaders warn with clubs of debt servitude.

The hearing yesterday didn't go well for equity committee. Sounds like maybe plan will be confirmed as-is.

Judge Lane sided with the creditors / against the equity committee today. The shares will get cancelled now. I imagine many retail shareholders are unable to maintain warrant positions in their brokerage accounts, so you can expect the sell off to continue and plummet once the certificates get issued.
