Armaggedon:Rhythms NetConnections to lay off 23% of work force
By Bloomberg News
January 16, 2001, 5:10 p.m. PT
ENGLEWOOD, Colo.--Rhythms NetConnections, a provider of high-speed Internet service, said it laid off 450 workers, or about 23 percent of its staff, to save cash.

The Englewood, Colo.-based company said it also will take a restructuring charge of $15 million to $17 million in the first quarter for the job cuts and costs of a new strategy to focus on its 40 largest markets.

Rhythms NetConnections said the cutbacks, the focus on bigger markets, and other cost-saving moves will reduce its 2001 loss before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization and the one-time restructuring charge to about $395 million. That's about 15 percent less than analysts had estimated, the company said.
