RE: Conference Call - MamaHi Mama, no, I rarely catch the actual call itself, although I do try to catch a re-run of the recorded version.
I don't see any hurry. There appears to be some discrepancy over the debt-to-capital ratio which you might have gleaned if you read some previous posts. My impression is that Bombardier has made some progress in paying down some of that debt, and that seems in line with the recent debt refinancings since the company acquired better interest rates.
Value Line sugests the debt to capital ratio is only 54% whereas Kusch points out that the new annual report has it at 61% - very near the old level of 60% quoted in older reports.
I'd be interested in hearing your thoughts on this since you seem to have a little better understanding of such numbers.
Something must account for the difference and I'm wondering if the Value Line number might not be more up-to-date than even the new Annual Report?
In any event, with it's cash hoarde growing to $3.4-billion it seems reasonable to expect the company to make some effort in that direction.
