I do not follow the company but I do know (vaguely) that the statement equity values do not correspond to the prices. I was trying to make a point that neither Jacobs nor Kevin are right about the value of the company - it is not determined by accounting rules. The value (or real equity) is simply the current market value.

most companies do not follow accounting rules internally but rather use them for restrictions and optimizations

Regards

I do believe you fabricated

did you know that Iridium listed it's book value at over $30 per share just before it was forced into bankruptcy?

You wouldn't be referring to phoney data reported on SI?
