NEW YORK -- June 23, 2009: Jeffrey Zients was confirmed by the Senate Friday as the Deputy Director of the U.S. Office of Management and Budget and has therefore resigned from Sirius XM Radio's board of directors.
Sirius XM says in an SEC filing that it has notified Nasdaq that, now having seven independent directors, it is no longer in compliance with Nasdaq listing rules. But the satcaster says it will, as the rules require, be back in compliance with the independent-director requirement before its next annual stockholders' meeting or June 22, 2010, whichever comes first.
Sorry, i'm watching my Dodgers.....mo (momentum) cannot be stopped once started, human nature to jump in...everyone loves belonging to a winner!!;)...no tech to it...tech is when to bail:)Quote:

I do remember the s and p upgrade giving dramatic results very quickly. What will cause the next spike? Thats the million dollar question.
doctorex speaks:
dear mr. irish,
thank you for your detailed post which seems to show that gaap profit may be around the corner. (not a garbage metric, like ebitda, but real, honest gaap!)
doctorex wants to know: the 7-cent per share negative charge in Q1 is non-recurring, correct? because, if so, then you can mentally slip it off the bottom line, and voila, instant gaap profit of 6 cents per share for Q1.
what would the buyers do if actual, honest gaap profitability were announced? it may be coming soon.
buy! buy! buy!
doctorex has spoken.
This stock may get to .50 - 60 cents in the next month or so leading up to the end of July 2Q earnings call, but I am starting to blieve it is a Howard Stern story once again.
I think they are in intense negotiations with him to lock him up for at least another 3 year extension and giving access to Iphone/Itouch users is part of his negotiating tactic that's on the table.
An anouncement of him being available on the Apple app in conjunction with a 3 year extension may send this stock over $ 1.00 in 1 day.
The .06 loss for Liberty deal in 1Q is a one time occurrence,correct..but 1Q was still a loss of( .01) without it.so going forward you are correct we are heading to Real GAAp profit...Quote:

Yes romo that is correct,it was (.02) estimate and we beat it intheory,but for news reporting puposes we lost (.07) a share,can't discount that..Quote:

Regardless, this is pretty big business. In the event that SeaLaunch's Chapter 11 turns into Chapter 7, someone is going to buy the SeaLaunch assets and want that 5th launch from XM... possibly Boeing, who has their own launch collaberation going with Lockheed Martin. My bet is they'd work a deal with XM to secure the business on XM-5, perhaps even cutting them a break in light of amounts already paid to SeaLaunch.
How much did they already pay? I believe over the years that I've estimated that an XM/SeaLaunch operation was approximately $60MM each. How much could XM had paid -- this is literally a stab in the dark -- but I'd say 10%-20% down... so around $10MM to date??? But that's a total guess.
PS - Charles, on a different topic... here's an article about Stern where they took actual quotes from his radio show -- saying that there is a contractual issue with being on the iPhone App. This is not from Twitter and actually came out before the phoney twitter piece. This appears to be legit.

No, it is not. XM has always deferred final payments on their satellites until prior to launch; as well as final launch payments. XM noted this in their recent annual report, that they have deferred final payments on XM-5 to January 2010. That would include the SeaLaunch payments as well.Quote:
