Usually, when a Co. has to change its financial statement and assets, it's not a good thing.... Definitely agree on that point, but has anyone actually read through the SEC filing before passing judgement? For the legalese-minded, here are links to the filings and maybe you can decipher it for the rest of us: marketwatch.newsalert.com marketwatch.newsalert.com -tk

Your observation is often true, but typically applies in the case where a company has misrepresented or misreported its earnings. I don't see that here. It appears that the details of recent acquisitions (Authorize.net and IQC, etc.) are being reported and the decrease in cash is attributable to the acquisition as well as the huge increase in intangible property (over 100M!). So, unless I'm misunderstanding this PR, there seems to be nothing irregular here at all and is just the required & standard reporting post-acquisition that must be filed.
