Mr. Hog:

Your comments are well taken. Unlike a lot of companies that lease property/plant, MII owns theirs. Due to the unexpected difficulties experienced last year, the company will be restructuring its balance sheet by in effect selling its building/land and leasing it back (there is a fair amount of off balance sheet value in these assets). This will significantly strengthen their balance sheet, equity position and cash flow. I would expect this to be finalized by Labour Day.

FWIW
Philip

Now that shareholders' equity has vanished (negative $7.45 million at 1998 year-end), MII may have a problem dealing with banks and suppliers on a normal basis unless its obligations are guaranteed by a solvent third party. MII may be in technical default on its loans, and suppliers may demand cash payment for Mond purchases.
