  • Marc Chase - President of Tribune Interactive!
    SURELY YOU CAN’T BE SERIOUS? MARC CHASE - PRESIDENT OF TRIBUNE INTERACTIVE! Randy Michaels’ run of acquiring radio-management stars came to a screeching halt today with Chase’s appointment CHICAGO, April 7, 2008 – Another freaking Clear Channel Communications executive on the payroll and this one’s been named President of Tribune Interactive. Tribune Broadcasting’s Randy Michaels’ past finally caught up with him when Marc Chase obviously blackmailed his way into a position he is not remotely qualified to hold. Insiders are irate. Chase is a fraud. A source inside Tribune HR, who wished to remain anonymous, pointed out that Marc Chase’s resume (below) was obviously fabricated. First of all, his name isn’t even Marc Chase--it’s Mark Thompson. The whole thing is a sham.

  • A Note on Leveraged Buyouts, Defaults & Bankruptcy
    A Note on Leveraged December 16 Buyouts, Defaults & 2014 Bankruptcy Bradley Drake Rajeev Kasthuri Vanitha Kathrotia Elaine Press A Note on Leveraged Buyouts, Defaults & Bankruptcy 2014 A leveraged buyout (“LBO”) is a transaction which involves the purchase of a controlling stake in a business most often by a financial sponsor such as a private equity firm or an investor utilizing substantial levels of debt. LBO debt is generally considered to be non-investment grade debt instruments; as a result of the higher default and loss given default-risk profiles, the investors demand higher rates of return to commensurate for the risk. Historical internal rates of return over a five-year period investment or above indicate returns exceed the public market equivalent. Specifically a 10- or 20-year investment in buyout funds indicate 14% / 13% returns vs. the S&P 500 returns of 7% over the same time horizon. (Bain Capital) Given the highly leveraged profile of the LBO’s, however, defaults are prominent during economic downturns, interest rate shocks, industry shifts, and operational disruptions, all which lead to severe deterioration in cash flow, with certain companies undergoing extreme distress and ultimately opting for bankruptcy. To provide a general overview, the paper will provide a discussion on the capital structure of an LBO, background on defaults, bankruptcies, recovery rates and similar occurrences to comparably rated non-LBO transactions. Following the outline of the general LBO discussion, the report will analyze three transactions: TXU or Energy Holdings’ 2014 announcement which is considered to be the largest LBO bankruptcy in history; Clear Channel Communications which has been long under speculation to enter bankruptcy and Tribune Company which entered bankruptcy at the height of the financial crisis in 2008; and finally The analysis will be structured around the LBO transaction details, the nuances and circumstances leading up to the announcement and if the bankruptcy could have been predicted utilizing the means of a Z”-score.
