[mayday18]

Der zweitgrößte Kabelnetzbetreiber Englands Telewest steht kurz vor der Rettung. 3,5 Millarden Pfund Schulden sollen durch die Übertragung von 98,5% der Aktien an die Gläubiger kurzfristig getilgt werden. In den letzten 3 Tagen zieht das Volumen in London schon stark an. Aktueller Kurs in London 1,59 Pfund(=2,29 €). Bei uns ist die Aktie in Frankfurt, Berlin und Stuttgart handelbar. Aktueller Kurs 0,018 €. Die Telewest-Aktie hatte einen Höchststand von ca. 560 Pfund in London in der Hyppe-Phase. Noch letztes Jahr lag der Kurs bei über 6 Pfund. In Q4 soll wieder profitabel gearbeitet werden.

Informieren kann man sich z.B. bei finanznachrichten.de Kürzel Telewest. Wichtig ist, daß die Aktien nach dem Abschluß der Verträge nicht direkt übertragen werden. Es ist also stark davon auszugehen, daß die Aktie kurz nach der Rettungsmeldung explodieren wird, weil hier noch einige Kasse machen wollen.

Telewest refinancing `near` as subscribers keep quitting

Telewest managing director Charles Burdick insisted yesterday that the cable operator was "close" to finalising its financial restructuring, after overcoming

a last-minute hitch to the protracted overhaul of its balance sheet.
Reporting reduced losses of £208m for the six months to June 30, Mr Burdick said Telewest would focus on returning to growth in the second half by introducing new bundles, offers and high profile marketing campaigns.

The company was close to a deal with creditors that would have seen £3.5bn wiped from its £5.3bn debt, but bondholders demanded a greater slice of the equity in exchange for forgoing their debts at the end of last month.

Telewest agreed this week to give shareholders 1.5% of the company`s shares, instead of the 3% offered under the original plan. Customers fell by 24,000 during the first half to a total of 1.7m but the number of subscribers who do not renew their deal was cut to a low of 16%.

The churn figure is still high compared with pay-TV rival BSkyB but an improvement on the days when the cable industry was reviled for poor customer service and more than one in four customers cancelled subscriptions.

Total turnover, including content division Flextech and BBC joint venture UKTV, remained flat on the same period last year at £674m, with the pre-tax loss narrowing from £239m to £208m. Average revenue per user hit a record high at £43.61 in the second quarter.

Sales were up by about 30% in July on the previous month after the company gave away a basic television package with each telephone connection and introduced a cut-price £10 installation offer.

Mr Burdick said the company`s focus would remain on increasing the number of high speed broadband customers and persuading them to become "triple play" subscribers who sign up for internet, pay-TV and telephone services.

Revenues at the broadband division rose 62% on the same period last year to £55m. Telewest added 30,000 subscribers in the second quarter, taking its broadband customer base to 329,000.

Telewest poised to cut shareholder stake

Telewest shareholders are likely to be left owning just 1.5% of the troubled cable company following a debt-for-equity swap.

The terms, which have still to be finalised, follow months of talks with bondholders over the best way to cancel £3.5 billion of debts.

Indications earlier this year had suggested shareholders would get 3% of the company`s equity as part of the financial restructuring.

The company, based in Woking, Surrey, confirmed the 1.5% proposal in response to media reports.

It did not disclose when the restructuring might be completed, although it now appears that an end to the discussions might be close.

The Financial Times said a remaining element of the restructuring deal was the appointment of bondholders to the board.

The company, which is the UK`s second biggest cable operator, has been working for more than a year to seal the complex deal.

Like rival NTL, Telewest ran up massive debts after spending billions on a rapid expansion drive that took its network to five million homes.

As part of a cost-cutting exercise the company has cut 1,500 jobs and slashed capital expenditure after making losses last year of £2.2 billion.

In January, Telewest overcame a major hurdle when it secured a new £2.2 billion bank loan, allowing it to stay in business while it thrashed out the debt-for-equity swap.

Analysts in the City have predicted Telewest could merge with rival NTL once it has stabilised its financial position
