Another update, I got an "indication" for Royal Oak's bonds today, apparently the 12.75% are indicated at 18 bid 25 offer. I'll have to go over the numbers again, I was expecting a lower quote.

Does it make sense that you can buy a claim on these assets at 25 cents on the dollar? Let me take a quick whack at it (without the balance sheet in front of me - hopefully I'll remember all the big bits).

Trilon's CCAA (court supervised superpriority) financing (call it $10M US) comes first, then Trilon's $120M (US) senior. $175M (US) at 25 cents on the dollar is $43.75M (US).

Add these numbers up and I get $174M US. Does this mean that the bonds are priced to indicate an expected liquidation value (or CCAA resolution "expection value") of the company (i.e., principally Kemess) of $174M?

Anyone agree with me? Anyone disagree with me? Anyone listening at all? ;-)
