That's what happens when you lease internationals, file as though they are sold but still have to eat the depretiation. We all know nothing loses value like a International. They somehow found it to be a good idea to offer walk away leases on them.
They might survive but just servicing the debt is putting a tremendous squeeze on that at this point. Almost a classic study study of a good company that decided to get just a little greedy and got stuck with it's hand in the cookie jar.
Hope it works out for their drivers, but this ugly and somewhat predictable.

Do you think they will be the subject of a made for TV corporate drama?

My question is, will they have the decency to aware drivers before it ends. 5 or 6 years ago I gave a driver at New Century a ride from the flying j in richmond VA to his house in Delaware. Dude had a 4 year old and a new one on the way. He was more worried about explaining to his wife there would be no paycheck. I ended up giving him 100 bucks. He payed me back five weeks later. Lol. We have been freinds ever since. It's a dirty business.
Bean Jr. and Highway_Executive Thank this. -
Will Celadon survive? Nothing is certain, but the allegations surfaced a year and a half ago and were admitted to a year ago. Celadon is still here and banks are still lending (albeit at high rates).
The new CEO has a fairly modest salary (I think it was $300,000), but he was awarded 800,000 shares in stock & options. That's an ~$8 million incentive to avoid bankruptcy during the turnaround...spyder7723 and Bean Jr. Thank this. -

For those that have not been following too closely, Celadon announced Monday that it had agreed to terms for a new loan -- $200 million fixed loan plus $100 million revolving line of credit. The lender would also get 20% equity in Celadon.
The stock is up ~55% since the announcement.spyder7723, DUNE-T and gentleroger Thank this. -
