Stock quotes in this article:SIRI
During an interview on CNBC, Sirius XM CEO Mel Karmazin addressed questions about a reverse stock split. Shares have closed under $1 since Sept. 2008, and Sirius XM has until March 15 to meet the Nasdaq's listing standard.
Karmazin said that Sirius XM is"one of the most valuable companies on the Nasdaq today," and that it is working with the Nasdaq regarding the minimum bid standard. "We'd like them to change the rules for us," Karmazin said. "We have a very, very substantial market cap." In a word, Karmazin said concerns over the company's debtload are "over." During the quarter, Sirius XM sold $257 million of new 9.75% senior notes due 2015 in order to repay $250 million of 15% term loans that would have matured in 2011 and 2012. Shares of Sirius XM were lately up 2 cents, or 4.4%, to 63 cents. -- Written by Robert Holmes in New York.
