What are the chances of BB getting the boot right when Spirit has to have a buyer or be liquidated

They’re most likely already getting the green light, and the DOJ won’t object because of Spirit’s failing‑firm defenses. An official review can be completed in less than two months. Spirit is already reducing its footprint and divesting from overlapping routes, etc.Originally Posted by Hamandswiss
Okay, maybe. But we both still have to operate independently during the year long plus DOJ process before we become one company. Neither of us have the capital.

I believe he blew it and they are firing him for it. He could have had Spirit in February, but he lowballed them and now someone else is going to buy them. That's my theory.Originally Posted by putzin
Have you ever seen a ceo booted right before an acquisition, It normally happens a little down the road after the announcement. IDK.

I doubt very highly that there is some merger deal that the lenders really want, but the BOD and management isn't happy with so the lenders are giving Spirit $50M more to get them to accept it. The limit is the debt that's secured to the assets. Management would be head over heals for a decent deal, its the secured debt that's the problem.

“He” lowballed them? He is Franke’s guy, Franke makes the decision on the offer, not Biffle. Originally Posted by FlyFlorida2025

True, but I believe they failed and he is the one who is going to pay for it, not Franke. That's my theory.Originally Posted by CincoDeMayo

Halon is bored since he left and he’s just having fun with the spirit forum at this point

I've been right about everything so far. We are on week 13 of "we are being acquired in a few days" and here we are with having to get another $50M to avoid shutting down.Originally Posted by FlyFlorida2025

Have you missed the pages and pages of people correcting you?
If you think without 50 million Spirit just shuts down the next day then I have some air in a jar that I would like to sell you.

Correcting me about what? Their differing opinion isn't "correcting me".Originally Posted by Lincoln Osiris
