Thread regarding Windstream Corp. layoffs

Earnings announcement tomorrow

Place your bets, were they delayed a month so we wouldn’t be overcome with too much good news at once or because they will s--- like past earnings and they were the middle of begging on their knees in the crotch of junk bond investors hoping to refinance their already high interest debt for even higher interest debt? Will it be a loss and bad but not as bad as if the company was run by mice so good? Hmmmmm

Hey, We plan to roll out adding the key words “AI” and “machine learning” to our product lineup and marketing by 2019 and we might bring back the rap video too.

Haha “valuable” resources. The Cloud agile open source sdwan ones? Maybe the rural bb customers? If I had to place odds on what remains of any value in 2025 I’d go with a time share in Tony’s French vacation house

"I would love to know how exactly they plan to make a profit by 2025"

Simple. They won't be Windstream anymore, somebody will have bought them for what valuable resources they still have, and THAT company will make a profit in 2025. But not Windstream, and certainly not the leadership they have today in place.

I would love to know how exactly they plan to make a profit by 2025, what that profit would be, where exactly they intend to cut costs and how much and when, and finally, if they aren’t making money, how the hell are they going to pay the bills and if they ever plan to pay back the debt they have or are they just going move to higher interest junk bonds every 5 years. Oh and when wages will be unfrozen, and when we can expect back pay for pay owed, and when will we get decent health insurance. If I hear the word efficiency, synergy, or business pressure I will first throw up then say oh you mean layoffs

So earnings will be down, and money still being lost faster than it can be made, but don’t pay attention to that because, good news, we are selling most of our stuff!

Sounds like when an 18 year old has been living a year on credit cards and can only make minimum payments, but only if they sell their cd and dvd collection and most of their clothes and possibly their car. Well then if their dad doesn’t bail them out they declare bankruptcy so good news!’

Reminds me of the old 6 million dollar man TVs show, well the beginning when he crashes and explodes that is. Oh and when your new company buys your business and now has two employees that do the same job and are trying to find ways to buy subscribers without extra overhead, well, let’s just say as Windstream employees that we know what that means...

Its going to be an announcement on earnings, response to lack of revenue, how they are going to fix it.

NEWS FLASH: we are still losing money.

ILEC business is sold to FTR.

CLEC business is sold to CLINK.

No layoffs, anyone part of the CLEC or IL3C business follows the new owner.

It's going to be bad news bears for Enterprise. They will gloss over it with talks of Ess DEeee Wyan which the wallstreeters know better. It is going to be all about consumer this go around. Look at the margins look at these numbers, the graph only looks bad when you turn it right side up... a total wack off festival on the call but the numbers are going to be $hit.
