財(cái)富增長最快的公司排行榜隕落的7大明星
Edge石油公司 上榜年份:2006 排名:第8 Edge石油公司創(chuàng)立于1983年,主營業(yè)務(wù)是原油及天然氣勘探、開發(fā)和生產(chǎn),以進(jìn)行高風(fēng)險(xiǎn)投資著稱。這一戰(zhàn)略并未讓Edge安然度過金融危機(jī)。 就在Edge榮登《財(cái)富》榜單后不久,它的股價(jià)就開始大跌。2008年,公司宣布計(jì)劃與位于俄克拉荷馬城的Chaparral能源公司(Chaparral Energy)合并,以避免破產(chǎn)的厄運(yùn),但這樁交易并未成功。兩家公司都將失敗的原因歸咎于糟糕的經(jīng)濟(jì)環(huán)境。2009年,Edge申請破產(chǎn),并宣布資產(chǎn)清算所得將全部償還給債權(quán)人。 |
Edge Petroleum List year: 2006 Rank: 8 Edge Petroleum was founded in 1983 as a crude oil and natural gas exploration, development and production company that was known for making high-risk investments. The strategy didn't carry Edge through the financial crisis. Shortly after Edge made Fortune's list, its stock value started declining. The company planned to merge with Oklahoma City-based Chaparral Energy in 2008 to save it from extinction, but the deal fell through in 2008, with both companies citing the tough economic environment as reason for the deal's failure. Edge filed for Chapter 11 in 2009, announcing that all of the money from the sale of its assets would go to its creditors. |
