Galapagos - restructuring instead of coupon
All,
We would be extremely surprised the company paid coupon this month. Instead we expect advisors to come with a plan and commence restructuring net week.
In anticipation, please find our revised and updated analysis and model here.
We think the SSNs will receive a menu amounting to par, but we have not taken and are not taking a position in the name before seeing the plan. In the 80s, we don’t think the SSNs adequately compensate us for the risk and potential illiquidity that lies ahead, even if a consensual deal looks very likely.
However, the plan may be attractive and hence our analysis to be prepared when it comes.
Wolfgang
