| SCO's MORs for June and Bills from OPA for June and July - Mon. hearing cancelled |

SCO Group's Chapter 11 Trustee, Edward Cahn, has now filed the monthly operating reports for June, as well as bills for Ocean Park Advisors for June and July. And take note: there's no hearing in bankruptcy court on Monday. Once again, it's called off. So, Ocean Park wants more money for advising SCO about its way forward and its obligations. I will provide my own analysis for free: SCO has fallen and it can't get up. It can never pay off all the folks it owes, even if it suddenly tried. The litigation history is rather clear, is it not, that SCO's stories in court rooms don't actually get believed? There's a reason for that, one SCO's current leadership might want to look into. As a result, SCO is now a serial loser. Extrapolate. The way forward seems clear enough to me. There is no way forward.
There. I suggest my analysis is worth at least 5 cents. I'll assume my check is in the mail.

Can they really keep cancelling hearings like this? They have not yet told the
bankruptcy court that they lost the appeals have they?[ Reply to This | # ]

Extrapolating from the June figures, given a net cash burn of around
1M$/month and cash on hand of 1.2M$/month at the end of June, SCO should
run out of money a week into August. Oops. [ Reply to This | # ]

Again, as I have said before none of this makes any sense. There has to be
something somewhere that explains it, and I'd really like to see a RICO
investigation carried out on TSCOG.

Accounts Payable > 90 days
$998,849
Bad SCO.
BK company is not supposed to run anything payable > 90 days.
Total Assets
$5,603,529
Total Postpetition Liabilities
$6,751,110
Bad SCO. A BK company is not supposed to run into the red. The cash book keeping
is supposed to keep them current and they are supposed to fold first.
And they have fudged the total assets by a $2M goodwill number.
RealAssets-PostPetitionDebts = approx ($3M)
They are in quite a hole.
They have real cash flow problems.
Unrestricted Cash $1,155,689
AccountsPayable $1,248,539
There is not enough in the bank to pay the simple bills they already have.

What are they selling, and who is buying it. Surely there is no one left buying

PJ, do you really want money from SCO? LOL, don't answer! They owe you a lot,
a whole lot, even if they think the contrary.
But I would rather pay them some money to stop the whole thing. My rather
difficult calculations tell me, that I could spend 5 cents on this, even though
it's highly overprized.
Earnestly, don't they hear the wheels of their train grind on the bare rocks?

As a previous post noted, the numbers are REALLY bad. As I
and others have commented before, it seems there may be
something going on that has not yet surfaced.
The whole thing long since ceased to have any FUD value.
Cahn and company are not stupid - they have to know that the
litigation isn't going anywhere good, baring a fair number
of neutrino collisions. Blank Rome's ride is about to come
to an end.
So why the legal pursuit? It might just be, as has been
suggested, that as all it is costing is expenses, why not?
I'm not so sure that is the complete picture.
What I think will be telling is, what will happen to the
litigation after either all other assests/liabilities are
sold, (as has been the on-going plan), or finally SCO goes
Chapter 7.
If some new champion (Yarrow?, Darl? Some other member of
the foggy group behind the purported sales?) emerges holding
the litigation reins, and continues it, that would be really
inexplicable.

Sorry, PJ. You know that
SCOXQ.PK is in bankruptcy. You can only claim 80% of your fee.
Please
re-submit. [ Reply to This | # ]

1144 says:
As the Trustee and its financial
advisors have not had
sufficient time to review all of the historical information previously reported
by the
Debtors,the Trustee reserves the right to amend these Monthly Operating
Reports
For Heaven's sake! How much time does he want? He's had more
than a year!
Cahn has become part of the problem. It's been clear for at
least six months that he's not doing the job he was appointed for. Now, he's not
even bothering to pretend he's fulfilling his duties.
It's time for one
of the stakeholders to submit a motion to Gross requesting that the bankruptcy
law be applied. The law says that MORs should be filed on time. An MOR with a
disclaimer does not constitute a proper MOR. [ Reply to This | # ]

In SCOGBK 1141 (The latest sale motion) we have ...
Objection deadline 8/16/2010 3PM EDT
Hearing data 8/16/2010 4PM EDT
... so unless _nobody_ objects we expect a delaware hearing later this month.
PS - Checking in from family summer vacation 2010 ... amazing, astounding,
dissapointing - it was a year ago that gross ordered appointment of a chapter 11
trustee.

I just noticed that all of the earlier post-petition professionals, like Berger
Singerman, and Tanner, LLC, always filed their own applications for
compensation. Here we have the Chapter 11 trustee filing the application for
compensation on behalf of Ocean Park Advisers. Why not let the professionals
file their own application for compensation? Should the trustee be doing their
work for them? It certainly gives the appearance that compensating the
professionals is more important to Judge Cahn than actually paying off any of
the creditors, or settling the affairs of the estate.[ Reply to This | # ]

See document 1144, pg 4 -- it states that SCO paid Novell the $625K that had
been previously held in constructive trust by SCO for Novell, pending the trial
outcome.
So -- finally SCO has had to fork over some of the $$ to Novell, before they
could spend every last $$ -- I believe this is a watershed moment.[ Reply to This | # ]

There was nothing on the agenda, so they cancelled it. Anything else would just
be wasting everybody's time and money. If Novell or the US Trustee want to bring
something to the attention of Judge Gross, they can do so in writing. If it is
something that then requires a hearing, they can have one. I doubt SCO would be
allowed to cancel a hearing if there actually was something somebody wanted to
discuss at it.[ Reply to This | # ]
