Comment on Rackspace Hires Morgan Stanley to Evaluate Options

Comments

Since stock price seems to be independent of actual company performance these days...

Is Rackspace actually in financial trouble? Or is it a case of shareholders moaning that their returns aren't good enough?

They're fine financially. >$300M Cash, $70M of debt (most of which are capital leases). They say they've been approached by "multiple parties" so it's just a matter of trying to get the best offer. http://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1107694/0001107694140...

Ok, so assume I am an idiot on this (not far wrong). Why is their stock price not high? Just because they are not satisfying shareholders / wall street analysts?

Are the slowly losing customers or see somethign in the future that will cause trouble?

Thanks, that does.
