I agree with your thinking but the filings are all there.I hate to say it and offend anyone in the medical field,but my head was about to explode looking at all the filings and swap this for that,this goes here,that was a write down per MDT filings. It is like one Giant Shell game being played by different parts of MDT-divisions,branches,Arms,and their holdings too.
I swear it would take years to digest what they are actually doing by a team of CPA auditors.Not bad mouthing MDT,but like I said,RTG name is all over in certain places with Martha at the helm with RTG when said purchases were done. Maybe it needs the depreciation,costs of R&D loss going forward with the write downs off companies they purchase.Another words when MDT/RTG buys TMDI,the costs occurred by TMDI getting ENOS up to date,gets written off against gains MDT makes off future sells (profit).
MDT is like Google.You know how many parts Google has and can show a profit here,loss there,buyout here,write off there.
MDT pulls a 280 million dollar loan for 6 months with an extension for another 6 months if needed. 24 billion in debt on the books.But yet,buys companies right and left,employs 96k workers...Sigh....
I guess that is how you expand and grow.After all,it's only money anyhow and the more complex your business is the more it becomes hard for others to see "all the moving parts".......And that is why 23% which RTG/MDT bought stays hidden for the time being.Maybe End of year BO. only months away anyhow. Jmho.....Thanks Roll
