  • 06:17 ET I2 Technologies conference call details (ITWO) 13.00 -0.03:Analysts offer praise and congratulations for ITWO management on call. Analysts said they are IMPRESSED with what new CEO has accomplished; they want to know how long he'll stick around -- CEO says he's just getting started at the co, says he's "having a lot of fun." Several wanted to know how ITWO plans to cut debt; co says it has a multi-pronged plan, will continue to look at non-core businesses it can sell, licensing opportunities for upfront cash, potentially more equity investment, and some longer-term senior debt or a refinancing. ITWO says it expects revs to decline sequentially in Q3, even though it expects to be profitable. Yet co notes its deferred revs increase, says it saw "relief" on behalf of some customers, as they were closing bookings due specifically to the fact that ITWO is addressing its cash-to-debt gap (co has $316.8 mln debt, $298.3 mln cash, for a gap of $18.5 mln). NOTE: ITWO is up $4.15, or 32%, to $17.15 after hours.

Some traders are now speculating about the possibility of additional deals. Yet what some newcomers to the stock may not realize is that a dilutive exercise of warrants could be imminent. DayStar went public in February '04, and sold 2.1 mln warrants at $6, and 4.2 mln warrants at $10. The $6 warrants are callable if the stock closes above $8.50 for five consecutive days. And today marks Day 5. " Clearly, the warrants are our lowest-cost way to raise capital," John Tuttle, DayStar's chief executive, told us. "The warrants have built-in dilution, so you don't have...
