>>"All of our companies are making progress toward profitability, even in tough economic times," ICG president and CEO Walter Buckley said.<<

>>"We're continuing to streamline and to focus on those firms with the best chance for profitability and longterm success," he said.<<

mark, see the contradiction here? the "b" in buckley must stand for "b"ser... ;-)

1 >>ICG said it would end the year with $250 million in cash<<

+

1 >>For the quarter ended September 30th, ICG reported a net loss including charges of US$235 million, down from $263 million a year ago.<<

bser can't even bs his way through a single press release w/o totally screwing up the math. it doesn't add up.

sad, sad, sad...
