great conf. call... the analysts sounded pretty wowed by the results. key take-aways from Bill R. (paraphrasing): - "we're not for sale." - "we don't see anyone being able to recreate what we have accomplished in terms of market coverage and infrastructure." - "in terms of infrastructure and run rate, by the end of 1998 we should be where Teleport was at the time it was acquired by AT&T for $11B, and our growth rate will be better." - "we will need to tap the capital markets again, since we're ahead of schedule on our buildout and we need to pay for it. we already have $700M of debt of the balance sheet, so raising capital via the equity market might bring more balance to the balance sheet. in any case it would not be a large amount of capital." full steam ahead! mark
