So yesterday media reported that their cash flow was "only" -$900M (LA Times: "Burnt 1B") and their cash reserves remained high at 9.1B. This supprised me a bit as I would have expected a higher impact. That's why I had a look in their official Form 10-Q report. Turns out that they setteled debt in Q2 for $6B but took new borrowings for $11B. So they burnt more like $6B and are living on the credit card so to speak to save their cash reserves. And they will continue for at least one Q, probably two, maybe three.
Once again I am baffeled how they are handeled with valvet gloves. No one publically challenges them neither from a technical point of view nor from a project management point of view (timeline!) nor from a financial point of view.
