It did not take into account what they are right now seeking to secure in aid from Gov (which though probably will happen, is not secured yet). That is important. If all is equal according to GM's reporting, KPMG will not opine on anything other than "as the BOOKS look as of a certain date." In this case 12/31/08. But unlike GM, even if KPM issues a concern clause based on those books, Mel already has his deal in place ready to go. Given that IN HAND (not still seeking), though we may still get a concern, it may be accompanied by a clause that includes the current deal. I'm not sure an auditor is allowed to to such a thing. But here are the options:
1. They issue the warning with no caveat. In that case it's up to all debt holders invlved to understand the curent deal. If they feel all is satisfied by the deal, they waive any covenant triggers and all deal components trigger and all are happy.
2. They issue the warning with a caveat citing the deal in hand. This automatically triggers al deal components without any potential drama of #1.
3. If allowed, they take into account current deal funding in their equation and come up with no going cncern warning at all..which of course is best case and which triggers all components and most certianly pops the SP the highest.
Further my question to cos1000 was not looking for interpretation or implication. God knows Brandon's done all that we can handle by now. I was asking for the specific clause referring to the May debt that said it needed to be done by March 17 for the deal to go through. I don't see it in the 12b filing or anywhere else.. I also didn't read in that filing that company was having trouble renegotiatng the JPM $250M facility..I'm just asking where that specific concern came from, that's all...
