Now I am consfused,

If their liabilities are greater than their assets, why would their book value be positive? Book value, as far as I understand it, is the actual value of the company based on its assets if it was sold piece meal and all liabilities paid off. I also have seen statements in the press as to the value of their assets and the number have been around 6 to 7 billion. In such a case the 3.4 billion in debt is still less than the value of the assets. What am I seeig wrong here? Please enlighten
