Wolfspeed (WOLF) “announced that it has taken the next step to implement its previously announced Restructuring Support Agreement with key lenders, including (i) holders of more than 97% of its senior secured notes, (ii) Renesas Electronics Corporation’s wholly owned U.S. subsidiary and (iii) convertible debtholders holding more than 67% of the outstanding convertible notes. Upon emergence from the process, the Company expects to have reduced its overall debt by approximately 70%, representing a reduction of approximately $4.6 billion and a reduction of its annual total cash interest payments by approximately 60%. By taking this proactive step, the Company expects to be better positioned to execute on its long-term growth strategy and accelerate its path to profitability. Wolfspeed is continuing to operate as usual throughout the process, including delivering silicon carbide materials and devices to its customers and paying its vendors in the ordinary course. To implement the prepackaged plan, the Company has voluntarily filed petitions for reorganization under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code. Wolfspeed expects to move through the process expeditiously and emerge by the end of the third quarter calendar year 2025.”
