Re: Oxford buyout.
It may be to early for a buyout. At this time it is far from clear how wide and deep the finanacial hole is. Aside from system problems that have been well discussed in the press, there are serious defiencies in management information. Management information drives price setting. Margins in this buisiness are quite small. Hence any errors can have dramatic impacts on the bottom line. Recognition and response to pricing problems take time.

Management information is also needed for any third party to do adequate due diligence. Any potential offer will require a lot of work and leaps of faith if contemplated at this time.
