Holloway and Friede Goldman Halter - FGH

The following posted on YAHOO FGI:

"In calculating SE for FGH, I sacrificed specificity for simplification and clarity. The $269.7m FGH SE/39.8m FGH shares provided an approximate, simplified BV of $6.77 a/o 6/30/99.

I was attempting to determine the significance of Holloway's opening remark regarding the merger: “''Creating shareholder value is the foremost job for management” biz.yahoo.com

In a nutshell, using FGI stock as currency, Holloway purchased HLX SE at a huge discount due primarily to disparities between Market Valuations and Asset accounting. The merger was anti-dilutive because the real assets gained far outweighed the number of shares used in the acquisition.

My question was: “What will he do with the increased assets?”

I think he succinctly provided the answer (above). As the single largest stock holder in Friede Goldman Halter (FGH), it is in Mr. Holloways personal best interest to increase Market valuation. I have no doubt he can and will do so."

GO Holloway!
