Fisker Bankruptcy: Fisker Group Files for Chapter 11 Protection
Fisker Group Inc., the operating subsidiary of electric vehicle manufacturer Fisker Inc., has filed for Chapter 11 protection in the District of Delaware as of June 17, 2024, under the context of Fisker Bankruptcy. This move is part of Fisker's strategy to manage its financial difficulties and ensure business continuity. The company is in advanced discussions with financial stakeholders regarding debtor-in-possession financing and the potential sale of its assets, all under the broader context of Fisker Bankruptcy.
A Fisker spokesperson commented on the Fisker Bankruptcy situation, stating, "Our company has made significant strides since its inception, notably with the Fisker Ocean SUV, which has surpassed market expectations. However, recent market and economic challenges have affected our operational efficiency. After careful consideration, we have decided that selling our assets under Chapter 11, within the framework of Fisker Bankruptcy, is the most viable path forward."
Fisker's manufacturing operations will continue as the company files motions with the Bankruptcy Court to support reduced operations. These efforts, part of the Fisker Bankruptcy plan, include maintaining employee wages and benefits, preserving customer programs, and ensuring vendor payments. It is important to note that Fisker Inc. and its subsidiaries outside the U.S. are not included in this Chapter 11 filing related to Fisker Bankruptcy.
