Arlington Tankers Hires Jefferies To Explore Alternatives (ATB)

Arlington Tankers Ltd. (NYSE: ATB) has decided to review and evaluate the company’s strategic alternatives, with the hope of enhancing shareholder value.  The company said its review will focus on the following:

  • the purchase of another company;
  • the sale of the company;
  • a merger of the company;
  • other strategic transactions;

……. or the continued execution of the company’s current operating plan. 

Arlington has retained Jefferies & Company, Inc. as its financial advisor in connection with this process.  It is important to note that as of now Arlington has no commitments or agreements in place and there are no assurances that this review will lead to any transactions.

The company is trading up 7% at $25.25 on thin volume trading this morning.  Its 52-week trading range is $18.93 to $29.90.

Are You Still Paying With a Debit Card?

The average American spends $17,274 on debit cards a year, and it’s a HUGE mistake. First, debit cards don’t have the same fraud protections as credit cards. Once your money is gone, it’s gone. But more importantly you can actually get something back from this spending every time you swipe.

Issuers are handing out wild bonuses right now. With some you can earn up to 5% back on every purchase. That’s like getting a 5% discount on everything you buy!

Our top pick is kind of hard to imagine. Not only does it pay up to 5% back, it also includes a $200 cash back reward in the first six months, a 0% intro APR, and…. $0 annual fee. It’s quite literally free money for any one that uses a card regularly. Click here to learn more!
