Iridium Changes Its Numbers

Iridium is trying a new line. On June 21, the embattled satellite phone company announced a new price-slashing strategy to help boost flagging sales of its 8-month-old service. Iridium will also shift its focus from marketing to global business travelers to industrial customers, such as oil-rig workers, who have a demonstrated need for the global calling service. Iridium, which has been in technical default on $800 million in credit, expects to come up with a new financial workout plan with investors and lenders by early July.
