I regard the Debt for Equity Swap as a Positive

Jean Fitzgerald, company chairman, president and chief executive:

"While a number of issues remain to be worked out, the general outline is in place and has the support of our major creditors. The end result will be a significant deleveraging of our balance sheet, which should in turn strengthen our operating capabilities and enable us to be a financially sound and competitive enterprise going forward."
Under a proposed restructuring plan, general and trade creditors would be paid in full; Hvide's existing credit facility would be refinanced; holders of its senior notes would exchange their notes for common equity of the company; and holders of the trust convertible preferred securities and common stock would receive common equity and/or warrants to purchase common equity..” famulus.msnbc.com
