Protecting his own interests could easily mean he cuts his losses, too. That statement only begs the question of guidance which certainly would be more substantive than mere speculation. If Lenfest is willing to waive such magnanimous amounts of debt as has been suggested, then who's to say where that line is drawn? Only the company can offer substance on these issues which thus far they are unwilling to do so. I've personally written and called them multiple times asking them to issue guidance to their shareholders concerning existing and accruing debt and have been smugly refused. Of course this attitude goes a long ways toward explaining the lack of interest in TEVE stock. Until/unless guidance is offered, this will remain nothing more than speculative as distinguished from an investment, thus the lack of market interest which is self-evident.
