Billabong Begging For More Dollars

by The Editors on July 18, 2008

Billabong International Ltd, has been on the road lately trying to “raise debt in the US traditional private placement market,” according to a story on Australia’s Business Spectator.

The company has completed a series of roadshows in the United States, hosted by Bank of America, Commonwealth Bank of Australia and Westpac Institutional Bank. . . . The company has been pursuing an aggressive expansion in the US and Europe. . . . The US private placement market is a popular source of funds for Australian companies looking for long-dated debt.

Guess they’ve got to pay off Lake and the boys some how.
