Marc, re-read what I wrote. I said working capital. Here's the information from the filed 10-Q.

Current assets: (numbers in 000's)
Cash and cash equivalents $ 8,891
Short-term investments 13,608

The report futher states:

"The Company believes that its current cash balance and the expected cash flow provided by operations, if any, will be sufficient to meet anticipated working capital and capital expenditure requirements at least through December 31, 1998. Thereafter, the Company may find it necessary to obtain additional debt or equity financing. There can be no assurance that, in the event additional financing is required, the Company will be able to raise such additional financing on acceptable terms or at all."

How is this misleading is not the working capital (cash on hand) $8.9MM. These are also Q2 numbers. We don't know what the numbers are for Q3. I would assume them to be much lower or why would Redbrick agree to a sale.

Earlier today one of the larger RedBrick investors came out against the merger. I think this is a ploy to get Informix to up the deal.

Please do not accuse me of things that are not true.
