QVC Group Wins Court Approval for Debt-Cutting Restructuring
A U.S. bankruptcy court in the Southern District of Texas has greenlit QVC Group’s reorganization plan, a move that slashes the retailer's massive debt load. The decision marks the final stretch for the home shopping giant as it prepares to exit Chapter 11 proceedings and resume normal operations.
Chief Executive David Rawlinson stated that the lighter balance sheet will allow the firm to refocus on its core business of live social shopping. As part of the transition, existing common and preferred stock will be canceled, and the reorganized entity intends to list new shares on a national exchange under the ticker QVCG. To stabilize future operations, the company has secured a $600 million line of credit to handle working capital requirements once it formally clears the remaining closing conditions.
