Lehman to raise $6 billion in capital

Lehman Brothers will raise $6 billion of capital to cover $2.8 billion second-quarter loss

NEW YORK (AP) -- Lehman Brothers says it will raise $6 billion through a stock issuance, and expects a second-quarter loss of approximately $2.8 billion due to more pain from the credit crisis.
The nation's fourth-largest investment bank said Monday it expects to post a loss of $5.14 per share for the quarter ended May 31. It made $489 million, or 81 cents per share, in the year-ago period.

Lehman says it will raise capital from both common and preferred stock.

EDIT: Analysts looked for a loss of between 22c and 75c (before or including some credit costs, adjusted. This is an ugly miss).
