Sounds like Cerberus can't find a buyer, so they're selling at auction. This is gonna be interesting...

Just keep some cash on hand and watch for an IPO on Remington Outdoor.

If I had the cash Id so buy it. then I get to cleaning up the QC in all the firms..
|
|
If I had the $, I'd buy it up and immediately put all Fed, Sate and Local Gov's on notice that if they pass any kind of legislation infringing on the 2nd Amendment, they would never receive any product or support from the company again.

They have over 646.8 MM in current debt liability, whomever buys them will spin off profitable units, properties and IP. I'm not saying that somebody won't buy them and keep them in business. but there is a reason they are going this route to liquidate the holdings.... |

ok just email the investment group that owns where I work, and asking them to take a look at it.. he owes me a favor..

EVERY SINGLE thing freedom group touched turned to shit. because it was all about the profits and the bean counters are trying to run production. Pump and dump, thats how they work. |

That appears to be true, though I'd blame Cerberus, as it seems to extend beyond 'Freedom Group'. |

Because Danny Quayle is a fucking pussy who let the CalSTRS set his corporate policy and now has to try and offload shit in a fucking fire sale. |

Nothing has to happen in two weeks ... matter of fact, nothing has to happen at all ... they look, and look, and don't find an immediate buyer, go back and tell the shareholders they need to sit on things until things cool down, etc., etc. |

Who would be most likely to buy any of the properties?
Which properties would most likely be sold? CZ buys Remington? |

I've said it before, I highly doubt Cerberus is liquid enough to allow CalSTRS to divest 751.4 MM from their funds.... That being said, up until this week I thought it was all a PR move for both Cerberus and CalSTRS. |

Freedom Group generated $677.3 million sales for the first 9 months of a the year. Personally, I would sooner have cut them check for their investment than left them dick with a long term investment. Cerberus is a $20 Billion portfolio. |

Cerberus is a $20 Billion portfolio. And CalSTRS is 155 Billion, that's a lot of business. When you account for the typical management fees plus investment power, the upside to attentional bushiness from CalSTRS is greater than the potential liability of the ownership of a company affiliated with the firearms industry. Additionally, they are having a very hard time of digging the Freedom Group out of debt, which was largely incurred during the restructuring of the companies. Say what you want about Cerberus. it makes some business sense to cut the losses.... Although, it is not what I would do. |

Better check closely. This could be an auction for just one mag, not all the companies.
