For Tenet ( THC ) investors, an excruciating stay in the waiting room is about to end. They will learn after the market closes Monday how their company is faring. And they will listen for new clues about whether the company -- ailing now for a year and a half -- can pull through in the end. After five long months, Tenet is finally set to release new financial statements that will expose the company's condition. "We believe that the deterioration in the financials is likely worse than expected," cautioned Raymond James analyst John Ransom, who has an underperform rating on Tenet's stock. "We reiterate our view that investors have yet to fully appreciate the magnitude of the company's woes." Even the "sparse information" provided by Tenet so far has Ransom worried. He is particularly troubled by terms of a new bank loan that triggered fears of a liquidity crisis -- and a huge selloff in the company's shares -- last week. He pointed to recent spikes in Tenet's bond prices as further reason for alarm.
