XO Communications: Open Letter to Carl Icahn from a Minority Shareholder

True, Mr. Icahn will be the one most benefited if he takes control of XO by himself from the guy crrently handling the XO business in his team, and takes other actions described in the letter.

Thanks for the post.

Does Akamai Have XO in Its Sites?

Google spent hundred million purchasing a surprisingly high amount of dark fiber.

Maybe they are stupid, but well, it looks like that the race to bandwidth caps is on.

Perhaps owning a little bandwidth is not a bad idea, even for the unsinkable Akamai.

XO Holdings: Raise Morale and Open Communications

It would be greatly appreciated if you point why, line by line if you could.

Mr. Carl Icahn could try to force XO to bankruptcy by the financial covenants of the Credit Facility he owns for 10 times. But at the end of each quarter in the past two and half years, he waived his right and extended the Credit Facility.

Now the financial covenants were removed based on the Final Judgment and Order on April 4, 2008: “the waiver, through the due date of July 15, 2009, of any breach of the financial covenants in Section 6.6 of the Credit Facility, including the EBITDA (as defined in the Credit Facility) and unrestricted cash balance covenants. Waiver of the EBITDA and unrestricted cash balance covenants in the Credit Facility will eliminate concerns that the debt outstanding under the Credit Facility could be accelerated prior to its maturity as a result of non-compliance with such covenants.”

Perhaps, we could also say that TWTC has not done yet.

Another possibility for the error could be that more than one stock (XOHO) is covered in this article.

That could cause the confusion on SeekingAlpha's handling. At least, I thought I checked the box "long".

I have been long XOHO for more than a year, and I am still long. It should be my mistake if not Seekingalpha's.

Thank you for your correction and I apologyze for any possible misleading.

XO's Top Line May Grow Faster with Latest Network Upgrade

XO has its own national backbone in addition to million miles of metro fiber. That's where most of the CRS-1 are installed so in most cases, no transit is paid at all.

Then, indeed, "they have numerous revenue-neutral peering agreements" in places. Apparently, with the newly added CRS-1, they increase the numbers of agreements to do more revenue-neutral peering.

XO is also increasingly working with international carriers that need terminating connections in the States.

XO, like the popular economical airline JetBlue, always make big killings when they see where they have end-to-end connection with unparellel advantage.
