      assuming 308,441,044 shares at the low price of .25 would put the total average instutional in price at .6914.

      Institutions NEED the stock to be at least this price, unless they are using the stock as a tax write off.

      308,441,044 shares posted with various funds have no information for purchase price on the mffais page

      491,606,618 shares posted with an average in at .9683 for funds with disclosed current value & value change

      formula I used was
      (Current Value - Value Change) / Number of Shares

      example:
      Apollo Management Iv Lp
      (22,964,464.00 - (-108,392,271)) / 91,857,857
      (131,356,735) / 91,857,857
      . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . PPS = $ 1.43

      BTW. . I noticed Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc
      at 6,459,223 shares 1.38 average buy-in!
      LOL

      9 months to acheive interoperable receivers (Mike H. wants it now!)

      On a lighter side:
      Apologies to Paul Henning!


      Come and listen to a story about a man named Mel
      A rich CEO, who watched as his stock price fell,
      Then one day he was shootin at a split,
      And up through the stockholders came someone screaming “BullS4it”.

      Hartleib that is, Crazy Uncle, First name Michael.

      Well the first thing you know ol Mel's a Plantiff in a suit,
      Kinfolk said "Mel, We think the point is moot"
      Said "Dilution is the best to put us in the black"
      So he let out little hints that got to Goldman Sach(s).

      Wienkes, that is. Office pools, Comparing Sirius to Cars.
      . . . . .

      Sirius XM Releases 5-Year Guidance: Aggressive or Conservative?
      Good Point Ron...
      My numbers were just at 50% saturation...a number of even 60% install and 50% renew would achieve those numbers easily.

      My assumption was to calculate the spiral loss of 2nd hand and third hand used cars. I am guessing that Mel's Sales & Marketing team are doing so as well.

      Also
      The success of SATRAD will have to be SatVio. A TiVio style option (30GB HARD DRIVE). The current subscribe model follows Comcast.
      . . . .So. . . .why not follow suit.

      I think Mel's a bit optimistic on 2013 numbers:
      My Scenario!
      Using a model of 30% install and a 50 renewal for the Actual Auto sales for the last 7.5 years, added with a 25% of this year gets the numbers to 19.3M Subscribers.

      IMO the conservative sales rate for Autos will be 14M cars a year.

      Using a model of 30% install and a 50 renewal for the Actual Auto sales for the 2.5 years (2006 & 2007), added with a 25% of the projected numbers gets the quantity to 27M Subscribers. by 2013.

      The average life span of an Auto is 8.5 years according to the US Dept of Statistics. Looking at the .com Bubble sales in '99, '00, and to a lesser extent '01, there are way too many vehicles on the road. The excess of .com was followed very closely by the sub-prime loans. Although there was a minor downturn in '03 sales, far too many vehicles were produced. In '07 Auto sales were more in line with reality, as most sub-primers were locked into their "DREAM DEALS". The devil was paid his due in '08 with a drop of over %30 US auto sales. Predicting anything but a flat Auto market for '09 is Prozaic in nature. Until the existing excess inventory of Automobiles is absorbed, expect flat or minimal growth. An increase of 200K Auto sales next year would IMO be the conservative approach. At BEST, historically, a 20% gain would bring us a 2.5M increase over this year. IMO the Auto industry bottom is here, with slow growth for the next three. If Auto Saturation increases (content is always an incentive for sales), and Auto sales remain steady, the numbers that are given are definitly conservative!

      sl62. . . Your statement on using 20 year old statistics is valid. I did some research for Vehicle longivity from the US dept of statistics. It seems that 20 years ago 6 years was the average life span of an auto. Today the average life span is 8.5 years. You have to wonder with the .com bubble, how many vehicles were "Xtras" due to liquidity. This timing puts the auto industry at the peak due to the .com bubble for it's older vehicles. IMO it will take another 2-2.5 year for the Auto companies to get to at least 14 million vehicles. The numbers indicate a potential rise before that period, but very a very small one. If SIRI is counting on the Auto sector as its mainstay then technology will overcome SATRAD before Auto sales come back.
