RE:AC pays off net 109,000,000,000 in LT debt Sorry, 1,090,000,000 billion USD.
It still means 100,0000,000 CAD less in annual interest.
Which is $.25 per share in diluted earnings using 385MM shares. P/E is 3.8 so represents $1 per share in share price.
Other airlines with similar fundamentals have a P/E of 7 to 9 and have fleet problems.
AC at a PE of 9 should be up $2.25 just on this news alone.
Let's see how quickly the short people try to bury news like this.
