MBIA raises $1.1 billion as share sale closes

Bond insurer says it's confident it can honor commitments to policyholders

SAN FRANCISCO (MarketWatch) -- MBIA Corp. said late Wednesday that it raised roughly $1.1 billion from selling new shares as the bond insurer tries to boost capital and keep its crucial AAA ratings.
MBIA shares climbed 2.8% to $11.96 during after-hours trading on Wednesday.
The company sold 94.6 million new common shares at $12.15 each for total net proceeds of roughly $1.1 billion. Private-equity firm Warburg Pincus, which has already invested at least $500 million in MBIA, bought $300 million of the new stock as part of the offering.
MBIA said it has increased its ability to pay claims by as much as $3.2 billion in about two months; raising $1.1 billion on Wednesday, $500 million selling stock to Warburg, $1 billion from a surplus notes offering and $200 million to $500 million from existing guarantees that expired during the fourth quarter.
"We have the strength to honor all of our commitments to policyholders," Chief Executive Gary Dunton said. The extra capital will also help the company pursue new business opportunities, he added in a statement.
Warburg had committed to provide a backstop for MBIA's latest offering by agreeing to buy up to $750 million of convertible participating preferred stock. But MBIA said on Wednesday that it didn't use the backstop and Warburg didn't exercise its right to purchase $300 million of the convertible securities.
Bond insurers like MBIA (MBI:MBIA Inc) have been hit hard by the mortgage crisis. There's concern the companies will suffer losses from guarantees they sold on complex securities known as collateralized debt obligations (CDOs), imperiling their AAA ratings. Without these top ratings, their business models may be undermined.
Bond insurers are trying to keep their AAA ratings by raising new capital. Regulators have also stepped in and are currently working with bond insurer counterparties on possible bailouts of specific companies in the business. Yesterday, Berkshire Hathaway run by Warren Buffett, offered its own solution. See full story. End of Story

I overstayed my welcome on a few pink stocks because I thought they were different from the rest. I learnt a good lesson there. I have reduced my exposure to these stocks in the recent days and planning to be completely out very soon. Same goes for penny stocks from bulletin board. With the recent melt down, there are so many bargains in big boards itself. Keep watching this forum for some great turnaround candidates.

MBI ABK SCA RAMR - All of them will starting running higher on any good news for the sector. All are beaten down and being prized for the worst..

[STRONGUS]

I am moving into big boards for most part. I still think ARSC is a good long term hold. There is a lot of supply coming in but not much demand at this time. That is why it is going lower.

strongus,

noticed you were out of the ARSC playing field, tired of waiting?

Pinks Stinks!!! :*) Go where there is momo and sell when its green!

its been one very interesting ride, i learned alot ,, how to get my ass kicked and beat up and spit out all at same time,,, i learned that even when there is prs , read closesly,lawyers ans sharp ceos know how to post ,,and play the prs,, in my opinion , it is a gamble,, people were shorting the crap out of rgno all the time, in anticipation always of numbers that were suppose to come out,, the recent rumours that have shocked the stck, make sense, there is a delay and people will take advantage of what ever they can, rembere 10 grand 20 grand is still 10 or 20 grand , ,,, i feel bad bad for investors that stayed in this stock all they way and have paide ten cents for there shares,,, there has just got to be a better way to make a buck,,, good luck and god bless

[sneaky2]

Pizzabuster1.... I didn't post this on RGNO because I figured it would be deleted. To answer your question on RGNO, I think investing in this stock has now turned to gambling, instead on investing. Flip of a coin is the best you can hope for. Too many unknowns to make a call, who are you going to believe and trust at this point. I think there will be a r/s. If so, pps may go up a little , then fall back, however we do not know about assets, yet to determined. Also new company may take this somewhere in the future. imo I am still holding , but like many am down alot.

Regions Oil & Gas Unveils Plans
Monday January 21, 1:06 pm ET

DALLAS, TX--(MARKET WIRE)--Jan 21, 2008 -- Regions Oil and Gas (Other OTC:RGNO.PK - News) today unveiled its future plan.
Regions Oil faces challenges in the coming weeks as it works on the implementation of its business plan.

The company has received many questions about the recent merger and future of the company and the company hopes this will answer some of questions presented:

A name change with a new company website is expected in about 3 weeks. The website will include a News page that will include all company press releases, a Blog page where the company will post updates and a Financial page where the company financials will be posted as well as information on the company and contact information.

A hotline line number for shareholders to leave messages for management. Management will make its best effort to respond but will also use the Blog to answer questions.

There are potential acquisitions being discussed with no additional information for public release as requested by the potential subsidiaries.

Mr. Papaleo has been appointed interim President & CEO and a new President will be appointed in the coming weeks. Also, the company asked that you not contact Mr. Papaleo with questions about the company as he is unable to answer any questions due to his Executive temporary status.

After further review, it was discovered that non revenue producing Oil Leases are part of the asset list of Regions and the company will release and post complete detailed financial statements on the company's new website within the next 30 days.

The company strategy will continue as a holding company. The strategy is simple; diversify holding, acquire companies, assist with business development, grow the company infrastructure, assist with marketing to increase revenues and profits and evaluate for a possible reporting status and reach the OTCBB.

About Regions

The company is a holding company with a strategy seeking to aggregate various business models to operate and enhance for sale or to participate in its subsidiaries becoming fully reporting companies and move to the OTCBB.
