The tag of war between equity and debt holders over profit escalates at Verso Paper Corp. (NYSE:VRS). Yet shares of the coated paper company continue to hold on positively. The story goes that as the company gears up for a merger with another coated paper producer NewPage Holdings, a lot seems to be at stake for creditors and shareholders. VRS is seeking to add NewPage, a privately-held company, to its portfolio, at least to turn a new page in its business. However, for the deal to go through, NewPage has asked that bondholders at Verso take a haircut. But that is not going down well with the creditors, yet talks over a debt exchange terms seem to be yielding very little as well. Nobody can tell for sure how things are going to unfold in the coming days or weeks, however, with value creation in the deal being compelling as it looks, a compromised may be in the works.
Nimble Storage Inc (NYSE:NMBL) may be one of the intriguing stocks that investors can bet on right now. But this assertion is better explained.
