| "wait and see" I'm sure he'll be aggressively looking at deployment where Charter stands a chance, but their debt is the 4 Million pound gorilla in the room.

Saint Louis, MO | Can you really say a company, that was $19B in debt a couple of years ago and is now $21B in debt now, is profitable? If those numbers were switched I would still question it. |

As long as they keep refinancing and have good credit, I wouldn't question it. I'd think Paul Allen would want to take the company private, take on the debt, and just write it off. Probably what's in the future for Charter. |

Probably what's in the future for Charter. And how would Paul Allen be able to write all the debt off exactly? Last I saw creditors write credit off, not debtors.
That the debt keeps going up and is actually higher than the value of the company and all its' assets isn't really a good thing. They should be paying it down with any free cash flow not increasing it. Seem to be having to borrow just to keep going. |
