|It's the high debt which is the concern. And the high

interest rate which effects cashflow/earngings and their ability to pay. i.e  expected ebitda is in the 500 mill range and interest payments cut that down to 300 mill range in terms of cashflow. Also debt is double market cap, so one must look at cashflow or earnings in terms of EV or enterprise value rather than EPS based on market cap. I am not short, just someone who was looking to buy in to take advantage of the stock drop.

I dont think it is so much the high debt although that is certainly worth a strong look at.

Haelthcare sector already off the bottom for the day  -2.7% and VRX up off the days low.  Things are changing intraday now. Looking to see upward movement in less than 5 mins. Those margin changes are having an effect this morning also. JFF7

VRX has already the investigation there. VRX will survive,it is just a matter of time. Even if they will confirm that is a fraud there, it is limited to some persons. VRX has many other professionals there, they will found a way to survive.

Interesting that high interest debt and its drag on cash is used as a reason for low SP. Then why would the CEO say they may be looking for 1-2 (smaller) acquisitions in coming months paid from cash flow?
