Blockbuster kan meget vel være den næste store gigant i underholdningsbranchen som må dreje nøglen om. Efter handlen med Blockbuster-aktierne blev suspenderet i går i New York, søger firmaets ledelse nu efter mulige restruktureringsplaner, hvis en reel konkurs skal ungås. Blockbuster-aktiekursen faldt med ikke mindre end 86 % før al handel til slut blev suspenderet. Bloomberg har netop opdateret deres nyhed om Blockbuster endnu en gang.
March 3 (Bloomberg) – Blockbuster Inc., the world’s largest movie-rental chain, hired legal counsel to explore a possible bankruptcy filing, a person familiar with the situation said. Blockbuster fell as much as 86 percent before trading was halted.
Kirkland & Ellis LLP was asked to evaluate restructuring options for the company, which may include a “pre-packaged” or “pre-arranged bankruptcy,” in which much of the restructuring work is completed out of court, the person said. A pre-packaged filing is more advanced than a pre-arranged bankruptcy as it includes agreements from creditors about the outcome of the company’s reorganization.
“We’ve hired them for refinancing and capital raising initiatives,” said Karen Raskopf, a Blockbuster spokeswoman. “We do not intend to file for bankruptcy.”
