RE:RE:RE:Exchangeable debenture redemption valueGolden Tree owns about 40% of the debentures. Considering the balance sheet, this is basically risk-free money (8%+). However, the penalty for early repayment is basically the same as the expected interest over the next year and change.
Keep in mind that a lot of the debenture holders have likely held for years, and the company back then was a dead man walking the green mile in the eyes of many. They are going to squeeze every nickel out of Y for the risk.
I haven't done the math on what complete conversion looks like dilution wise. Perhaps someone else would chime in on what a post-conversion capital structure would look like.
