According to their annual accounts, generally:
Current liabilities include:
Trade Creditors of $48.5M; and
loans of $2.8M
Total Current approx $51M
Non Current Liabilities include:
Con Notes $184.7M
Toho Loan $13.3M
Finance Leases $3.3M
Total non Current $201.5M approx
which by my best guess would give an annual interest bill of around $15M
Con Notes are repayable in 2012 and Toho Loan in 2011. See also market analyst reports which say that Con notes act as a poison pill for a takeover as they become immdeiately repayable in full if anyone acquires 51% or more of CBH - hence why PEM could not proceed with merger as CBH's real value is a lot lower than the original proposal and if the two companies merged on their true values it would mean that PEM would have to hold more than 51% of the combined entity, which would trigger repaymnent of notes and make CBH worthless to them or anyone else.
