No, about 3.3% roughly according to my calculation. Strictly back of the envelope. I simply increased the cost of the debt by the conversion premium and divided by the market cap.

Of course this assumes all converted. I'll bet a good number are still waiting, but I think they are DUMB, DUMB, DUMB.

what kind of dillution can we expect from these bond conversions? is it several percentage points?


I think that's 350mil/104 ~= 3.4 mil shares ~= 3% dilution

dillution on bond conversion: This stock is moving on hype, euphoria and lot's of hope. Investors are not being rational at this point so I do not expect the market to care at all about the dillution* issue at all (at least not until some negative news come out and the stock starts to tank).

*Dillution of what? O yes! of earnings yet to come!
