Is WorldCom Inc. playing possum?
The bankrupt company's MCI unit has been raising long-distance charges ever since the Clinton, Miss.-based telecom giant filed for Chapter 11 protection in July, and the rest of the industry has followed. But once WorldCom leaves bankruptcy protection with a balance sheet that has significantly less debt, rivals had better watch out. Telecom observers believe the company will slash prices and try to undercut its highly leveraged competitors.
That situation, too, may lead to a fresh rash of telecom bankruptcies, as rivals enter Chapter 11 as a way to regain their competitive footing. "The traditional bankruptcy approach of looking at a company's bankruptcy in isolation is not possible in the telecom industry because these bankrupt firms have a competitive impact on each other," says Todd Zywicki, professor at George Mason University School of Law in Virginia.
Highly leveraged companies such as Verizon Communications Inc. and SBC Communications Inc. could actually be forced into bankruptcy at some point if a revitalized WorldCom picks up with predatory pricing where it left off before it filed, Zywicki believes. He and others also think AT&T Corp. and Sprint Corp., faced with expected new FCC rules making it more expensive to use Bell lines and unable to compete with a debt-light WorldCom because of their own leverage problems, also could make their way to Chapter 11's door.
While that seems bewildering, it's not so far-fetched given the $30 billion in debt WorldCom had when it entered Chapter 11 and the relatively small — for a telecom — $7.5 billion or so it will have when it exits. "The Verizons and AT&Ts and Sprints are saying it's unfair, [that] WorldCom is coming out of bankruptcy with lower costs of doing business because they were able to shed most of their debt," says Lawrence White, professor of economics at New York University.
One major force that could prevent so-called competitive bankruptcies is the Federal Communications Commission, given the tools it has at its disposal, says David Kaut, an analyst at Legg Mason Inc. in Washington.

wie kann es vorkommen, daß in den USA kurzfristige extreme Kursschwankungen vorkommen?
Bei Worldcom war vorhin als niedrigster Kurs 0.0187$
Wie kann so was vorkommen? Da fällt ja einem das Herz in die Hose!

CLINTON, Miss., Jan 29, 2003 /PRNewswire-FirstCall via COMTEX/ -- WorldCom, Inc. today filed its November 2002 Monthly Operating Report with the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York. During the month of November 2002, WorldCom recorded $2.2 billion in revenue, an operating loss from continuing operations of $163 million and a net loss from continuing operations of $194 million.
WorldCom's capital expenditures for the month were approximately $48 million, including $27 million for property and equipment and $21 million for related software. November depreciation and amortization was $483 million.
WorldCom ended November with approximately $2.3 billion in cash on hand, an increase of approximately $200 million from the beginning of the month.
WorldCom continues to evaluate its balance sheet and expects to record further write-offs of assets, including the likelihood that it may determine that substantially all existing goodwill and other intangible assets, currently recorded as approximately $50 billion, should be written off. The Company is also evaluating the carrying value of existing property and equipment as to possible impairment of historic values. There is a likelihood that a material portion of the existing property and equipment carrying values, currently recorded as approximately $32 billion, should be written off. Until the Company's audit of previously reported asset values is complete, it cannot determine with certainty the amount of its ultimate write- offs. If an impairment is determined to exist prior to July 2002, the November 2002 Monthly Operating Report and any previously reported Monthly Operating Reports will be impacted accordingly.
The financial results discussed in this release and the November 2002 Monthly Operating Report exclude the results of Embratel. Until WorldCom completes a thorough balance sheet evaluation, the Company will not issue a balance sheet or cash flow statement as part of its Monthly Operating Report.
The Monthly Operating Reports are available on WorldCom's Restructuring Information Desk at http://www.worldcom.com .
Based on current information and a preliminary analysis of its ability to satisfy outstanding liabilities, WorldCom believes when it emerges from bankruptcy proceedings, its existing WorldCom and Intermedia preferred stock and WorldCom group and MCI group tracking stock issues will have no value.

WorldCom erwägt zusätzliche Abschreibung von 16 Mrd. Dollar
finanzen.net 31.01.2003 11:36:00
Die bankrotte Telefongesellschaft WorldCom Inc. zieht nach Angaben der Financial Times eine weitere Abschreibung in Höhe von 16 Mrd. Dollar im Rahmen ihrer Restrukturierung in Betracht, womit sich das gesamte Abschreibungsvolumen auf über 66 Mrd. Dollar belaufen könnte.
Wie die Zeitung in ihrer Online-Ausgabe berichtet, hat der Konzern bereits angedeutet, eine Abschreibung in Höhe von 50 Mrd. Dollar vorzunehmen. Gegenüber der Börsenaufsichtsbehörde SEC habe man nun zudem mitgeteilt, dass man derzeit die Abschreibung eines großen Teils seines Grundbesitzes sowie seiner Ausrüstung überprüfe. Rund die Hälfte dieser Vermögensbestände, die mit 32 Mrd. Dollar bewertet werden, könnten letztlich abgeschrieben werden.
Der Konzern, der nach einem Bilanzskandal über rund 9 Mrd. Dollar einen Antrag auf Gläubigerschutz stellen musste, erwirtschaftete im November eigenen Angaben zufolge einen Umsatz von 2,2 Mrd. Dollar nach 2,3 Mrd. Dollar im Vormonat. Der Nettoverlust aus dem laufenden Geschäft verringerte sich dabei von 205 Mio. Dollar auf 194 Mio. Dollar, während die Kapitalausgaben von 53 Mio. Dollar auf 48 Mio. Dollar sanken.
Ende November verfügte WorldCom über eine Liquidität von 2,3 Mrd. Dollar, was einer Steigerung von 200 Mio. Dollar gegenüber Oktober entspricht.
