Exchange Income responded, calling the attack a “short and distort campaign” aimed at undermining the value of the company’s shares. “The short report was deliberately released immediately following the end of the company’s second quarter when EIC is in a quiet period, and is based on a number of statements, assumptions and opinions with which we strenuously disagree,” Exchange Income said in a press release. Cohodes said the company has increased its debt load by $427 million over the past five years, and issued more than $230 million of shares to fund its roughly $700 million deficit.
