Gerry,
Unless I'm remembering wrong I don't think they ever said they'd be debt free or thereabouts by end of 2012. I recall that they referred to steps taken to pay down debt, or some such words, but this is not the same. I hope I'm wrong. I don't think they'll generate sufficient free cash to pay all debt back, but they should be on the way. Unless of course there's other stuff we don't know, and let's face it there could be lots we don't know at the moment with the news blackout.
