Collins & Aikman's 10 3/4% '11 bonds fell four points to 25 as the company projected it would receive less for the sale of assets related to its automotive fabrics business than anticipated. A trader said the company projects it will receive $15-20 million for the sale of the assets after originally forecasting a sale price of $30 million.
A Collins & Aikman spokesman said the company decided in April to exit and unwind the lion's share of its automotive fabrics business after it was unable to find a buyer. The company is selling assets of the fabric business and would not comment on the price it had forecast.
