https://www.investopedia.com/terms/s/stock.asp https://www.schwab.com/stocks/unders...common%20stock. A company or any assets is only worth what somebody is willing to pay for it. Not sure what point you’re trying to make. |

My point is that even if SAVE goes to zero the company has value as a package. Real estate/operating cash/aircraft/order book

I'm not an expert, but if the stock goes to zero isn't it implying that there isn't any difference between spirits assets and its liabilities? If something has 500 million worth of airplanes, but 500 million worth of debt it isn't worth anything right? Again I really am just trying to understand here.

1. The perceived value of the stock itself as an investment. If the stock is potentially getting wiped out in BK (being unsecured), it could trade near zero. Even if the company still has value to other people (secured creditors, or possibly a buyer arranged through BK proceedings). 2. The risk and hassle a buyer would assume by trying to acquire the company on the open market so as to access the actual value (assets minus debt). Right now the risk (and hassle) would be high, although a purchase could be arranged under the auspices of the BK court. Transactions made, or obligations incurred, AFTER BK is filed cannot be discharged in that proceeding. |
Book Value of Spirit is around $7.30/share last quarter, FWIW. After this quarters losses that could significantly erode however. The book value was $33/share before covid.

I was lucky the first time, don't think I can't get lucky again with the second round of furloughs...

Wouldn't a judge be instructing to sell assets to pay debtors? I guess all of that can be negotiated, not sure how it works.

https://www.airwaysmag.com/new-post/...uptcy-isnt-bad This has some of the answers you’re looking for and why ch11 isn’t necessarily a bad choice. |
so could someone in theory buy all Spirit stock for say, 150M?
seems like gaining a controlling interest and breaking up/selling off pieces would be quite lucrative at this price. How much is the HQ building alone worth? |
