Re: Swift Energy Co. (SFY)

(Note: We may not be out of the woods. Wait until Friday to see if interest payment is reversed. Mine came through AMTD today)

Yea, I saw mine too. 2 interest payments cover almost 20% of my original cost. I was looking at what HK did when they re-structured their debt.

Halcón Resources Announces Offer to Exchange Outstanding Unsecured Debt Securities for New Second Lien Secured Notes

This option may also be available to SFY rather than a debt for equity swap. HK issued a new second lien 'secured' note, extended the term by 2 years and increased the interest payment by 3% to 12%. If you agreed to the new deal you also received $20.00 per $1K consent payment.

I would go w/ that.

The key to the value proposition is (1) you bought original note at the right price (less than $0.50/100) and (2) company has good assets but it's only really a liquidity problem. Have not seen very many go to Chapter 11 but many w/ new debt offers and/or debt for equity swaps.

My exposure only in two distressed debt issues: XCO & SFY. Investment small but I am learning a lot and can see how these hedge funds can hit a home-run if/when they get in on the right horse.
