Das heißt, die 60 Millionen für Samsung werden vom BK-Gericht als viel zu gering erachtet!!! Verträge mit Samsung müssen nachgebessert werden....

Allerdings hilft es derzeit dem Kurs derzeit auch nicht weiter. Ob es sich da lohnt, nun noch mal zu verbilligen?!?  

mich ein klares ja!! Ich kaufe weiter zu um die 0,06€!!

 Selbst wenn hier nur mal ein kleines Übernahmegerücht entsteht gehts RUCK ZUCK auf die 10Cent hoch!!

TOKYO, June 2 (Reuters) - Applied Materials Inc's (AMAT.O) chief executive said on Tuesday there will be more failures in the semiconductor equipment sector in future as the number of customers declines.

Slammed by sluggish demand and high development costs, chipmakers are joining hands to survive, but that is not happening among their equipment suppliers, Mike Splinter told a group of reporters on Tuesday.

Acquisitions in the chip gear sector are "very difficult" to conduct, Splinter said. "That leaves very few avenues to give consolidation, other than ... companies failing."

Technological differences often hinder chip equipment makers from joining together even when the biggest are flush with cash.

Combining technologies takes precious time while rivals move forward, and scrapping one firm's technological base means overhauling equipment and high restructuring costs.

Orders for semiconductor equipment are emerging from near record lows, as chip makers replenish their inventory. Chip sales inched up 6 percent in April from March.

But the orders are still a fraction of levels from a year ago, while the world's No.2 PC maker Dell Inc (DELL.O) said last week there was not enough momentum in the PC market to call a bottom yet.

Chip makers are still thinking twice about investing big sums to make smaller, more powerful chips, as they deal with ongoing losses that are eroding their capital and that drove Spansion (SPSNQ.PK) to file for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection and Qimonda (QMNDQ.PK) into insolvency.

"The semiconductor equipment industry cannot support the necessary level of R&D without some amount of consolidation," Splinter said. "Today there is too much repetition, too much waste in the industry."

Applied Materials competes with No.2 chip equipment maker Tokyo Electron (8035.T) of Japan.

Sliding prices and a weak demand outlook have forced chipmakers to team up to cut mounting development and equipment costs.

PC memory makers Nanya Tech (2408.TW), Micron (MU.N) and Taiwan's Inotera (3474.TW) are joining hands as are Taiwan Memory Co and Japan's Elpida Memory Inc (6665.T).

Intel Corp (INTC.O), Samsung Electronics Co Ltd (005930.KS) and Toshiba Corp (6502.T) are jointly developing advanced chips, while Japanese microcontroller makers NEC Electronics (6723.T) and Renesas Technology are in talks to merge. (Reporting by Mayumi Negishi; Editing by Michael Watson)

stocke ich noch mal auf....

kann zwar sein, dass das Samsung-Geld nun dringend fehlt. Die gute Nachricht ist aber, die Members im Board erhalten weiterhin ihre Aktienboni. Die meisten von denen halten auch und geben nicht gleich ab.

Das spricht dafür, dass eine unmittelbare Umstrukturierung mit neuen Aktien auf Kosten der Altaktionäre nicht geplant ist.  

habe mir sogar 7,1 $-cent genehmigt. Und damit entsprechend den EK auf 10,5c verbilligt. Nun hoffe ich mal, das die Kuh noch mal ins fliegen kommt ;=)  

Sagt aber nur noch mal aus, dass das Gericht die Vereinbarung ablehnt. Weitere Konsequenzen daraus sind nicht abzulesen.



Form 8-K for SPANSION INC.


--------------------------------------------------

4-Jun-2009

Termination of a Material Definitive Agreement



Item 1.02 Termination of Material Definitive Agreement.
As previously reported, on March 1, 2009, Spansion Inc. (the "Company"), Spansion Technology LLC, Spansion LLC, Spansion International, Inc. and Cerium Laboratories LLC (collectively, the "Debtors") filed voluntary petitions in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware (the "Bankruptcy Court") for reorganization relief under chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code (the "Bankruptcy Code") (collectively, the "Chapter 11 Cases"). The Debtors continue to operate their businesses as debtors-in-possession under the jurisdiction of the Bankruptcy Court and in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code and the orders of the Bankruptcy Court.

Termination of Samsung Settlement Agreement following Rejection By Bankruptcy Court

As previously reported in a Current Report Form 8-K filed by the Company on April 10, 2009, the Company, Spansion LLC and Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd. entered into a settlement agreement (the "Settlement Agreement") with respect to the lawsuits among those entities. The Settlement Agreement provided for, among other things, a $70 million payment to be made by Samsung to the Company upon obtaining the approval of the Settlement Agreement by the Bankruptcy Court. On April 3, 2009, the Debtors filed a motion with the Bankruptcy Court seeking its approval of the Settlement Agreement. On June 2, 2009, the Bankruptcy Court entered an order denying the Debtors motion seeking approval of the Settlement Agreement.

By its terms, the Settlement Agreement has been terminated automatically as a result of the failure of the Bankruptcy Court to approve the Settlement Agreement by June 2, 2009 (sixty days from when the Company filed a motion seeking Bankruptcy Court approval).

The foregoing summary of the terms of the Settlement Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Settlement Agreement, filed as an Exhibit 10.59 to the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 28, 2008, which was filed with the SEC on May 13, 2009.  

zum Abschluss noch mal ein heftiger Einbruch. Bald ist das historische ATL von 0,04$ in Gefahr....  

 

Es fällt wie ein Brett im Moment und das ohne Nachrichten, bzw. nur wegen des geplatzen Samsungtransfers.

Der "Worst Case" wäre, nun schmilzt das Eigenkapital dahin, keinerlei neue Kredite in Sicht, dann Schicht im Schacht und Liquidation. Wohl auch der Grund für den massiven Kurseinbruch. Kann sein, dass dies im Interesse des Management ist (wer weiß, was Samsung denen neben den 60 Millionen noch versprochen hat).

Die bessere Variante: Der Richter spricht im Sinne der Gläubiger und von Spansion. Die Rechte sind für Samsungs Produktkette viel wertvoller als 60 Millionen. Aus Angst vor einem wesentlich teureren Ergebnis (das Klageverfahren müsste dann ja wieder aufgenommen werden) bessert Samsung nach oder kauft Spansion gesamt oder Teile davon auf.

Neben Micron und IBM nun ein weiterer Kaufinteressent dazu gekommen, denn Samsung braucht offenbar Spansions NOR-RAM Patente.

Unter 6 nun ist aber echt fies.... Bei ca. 4c werde ich noch einmal verbilligen, sofern keine Killernachrichten eintreffen. Das Urteil des BK-Richters sehe ich gelassen  

nach kurzzeitigem 13% Minus, damit hätte ich nicht gerechnet. Sind aber auch mittlerweile weniger Umsätze. Waren nur noch 2.2 Millionen, also mal ca. 150.000 Dollar, die heute getradet wurden.

Kommen Meldungen, wird es aber bestimmt das 10-fache sein.

Immerhin hat der Prudential Series Fund 3,3 Millionen Spansion-Aktien dazugekauft (am 1.6. gemeldet).  Ist doch ein gutes Zeichen, dass nicht nur Zocker traden und Investoren abstoßen, sondern ein Fonds offenbar dem Papier auch Fantasie einräumt!  

http://www.statesman.com/business/content/...y/06/08/0608plugged.html  

Naja, das sind doch mal richtig gute New`s die Du da ausgegraben hast !!!
Hoffentlich wirkt sich das auch mal positiv auf den Kurs aus.  

nur der Spread bei uns nicht. Wieso taxen die Säcke so ein Müll? Ich will zu 0,06 nochmal rein....  

egal, die geben tagsüber immer irgendwelche Spinnigen Werte vor.
Einfach Auftrag z.B. für / in Stuttg. geben zu 0,06 und abwarten ...
Viel Glück.

bin ganz froh, die Papiere direkt an der US-Börse bei den OTC zu kaufen. Habe den Kurs zwar nur mit 15 Minuten Verzögerung, dafür ist der Spread dann deutlich enger (max. 3%) und werde beim Limit wenigstens zum aktuellen gehandelten Kurs bedient.

Gut zu wissen, dass der Cash Flow positiv ist bei Spansion. Die schnelle Insolvenz ist also kein Thema, zumal noch nicht mal Fabriken wie die in Japan verkauft worden sind, was ja auch noch mal Cash bringt.

Würde nur zu gern wissen, was mit den Altaktionären passieren soll. Und wenn auch nur 10% des neuen Stockvolumens aus Altinvestoren bestehen sollte und der Rest die Gläubiger erhalten, würde selbts das schon dem Kurs zu einem Sprung verhelfen.  

7 cent scheint wohl der boden zu sein...

Spansion, Samsung to Resume Patent Feud

Spansion Inc. and Samsung Electronics Co. are set to resume their legal dispute after a bankruptcy judge rejected a $70 million patent settlement between the two companies.

Spansion is resuming litigation against Samsung over what it says are Samsung's violations of its patents covering technologies used in flash memory, a type of chip that is a mainstay in portable devices such as music players, digital cameras and computers, ...  

Samsung wird also auf jeden Fall nachbessern wollen!!

Das ist eine Menge Munition für Spekulatius. Morgen werden wir hoffentlich wieder im 2-stelligen Cent-Bereich notieren! Gut, dass ich bei 7,1c noch mal 2000 Stück nachgekauft habe :)

Das SEC 13 - File sagt nur, dass Prudential nun weniger als 5% der Anteile von Spansion besitzt.

Ob wie bei uns noch eine 3% Meldung in den USA Pflicht ist, weiß ich allerdings nicht.  

das war heute endlich mal wieder da...

5 Millionen Aktien gingen über den Tisch. Die letzten Tage davor kaum mal über 2 Millionen. Auch das ein gutes Zeichen. Je mehr Umsatz, desto mehr rückt Spansion wieder in den Focus. Kann nur gut sein!
