23ANDME HOLDINGS: Seeks $16MM Cyber Insurance Settlement
--------------------------------------------------------
Ben Zigterman of Law360 Bankruptcy Authority reports that genetic
testing company 23andMe has asked a Missouri bankruptcy judge to
approve a settlement it reached with several cyber insurers,
allowing those insurers to repurchase the remaining portion of
their $25 million aggregate coverage. The agreement would resolve
outstanding disputes related to the company's cybersecurity
incidents and the insurers' financial obligations.
According to the motion, the settlement is intended to streamline
the Chapter 11 process by eliminating potential litigation with the
insurers and bringing additional liquidity back into the estate.
23andMe argued that the buyback arrangement is in the best interest
of creditors and supports the company's progress toward confirming
a restructuring plan.
About 23andMe Holding Co.
23andMe Holding Co. is a genetics-led consumer healthcare and
biotechnology company in San Francisco, Calif. Through its
direct-to-consumer genetic testing, 23andMe offers personalized
insights into ancestry, genetic traits, and health risks. The
company has developed a large database of genetic information from
over 15 million customers, enabling it to provide health and
carrier status reports and collaborate on genetic research for drug
development. On the Web: http://www.23andme.com/
On March 23, 2025, 23andMe and 11 affiliated debtors each filed a
voluntary petition for relief under Chapter 11 of the U.S.
Bankruptcy Code (Bankr. E.D. Mo. Lead Case No. 25-40976). 23andMe
disclosed $277,422,000 in total assets against $214,702,000 in
total liabilities as of Dec. 31, 2024.
Paul, Weiss, Rifkind, Wharton & Garrison, LLP, Morgan, Lewis &
Bockius, LLP and Carmody MacDonald, PC serve as legal counsel to
the Debtors while Alvarez & Marsal North America, LLC serve as the
restructuring advisor. The Debtors tapped Reevemark, LLC and Scale
Strategy Operations, LLC as communications advisors and Kroll
Restructuring Administration Services, LLC as claims agent.
Lewis Rice LLC, Moelis & Company LLC, and Goodwin Procter LLP serve
as special local counsel, investment banker, and legal advisor to
the Special Committee of 23andMe's Board of Directors,
respectively.
Jerry Jensen, Acting U.S. Trustee for Region 13, appointed an
official committee to represent unsecured creditors in the Debtors'
Chapter 11 cases. The committee tapped Kelley Drye & Warren, LLP
and Stinson, LLP as legal counsel and FTI Consulting, Inc. as
financial advisor.
527 EDILIDO: To Sell Miami Beach Property to Jack Seeligson Storm
-----------------------------------------------------------------
527 Edilido, LLC, seeks permission from the U.S. Bankruptcy Court
for the Southern District of Florida, Miami Division, to sell
Property, free and clear of liens, claims, interests, and
encumbrances.
The Debtor owns the fee interest in a parcel of real estate located
at 527 E. Dilido Dr, Miami Beach, Florida 33139. The Property is
encumbered by two liens, a first mortgage held by Bank of America,
N.A. with a claimed balance of $4,126,953.00 as of the Petition
Date and a Foreclosure Judgement subordinate to BoA's mortgage,
held by So-Cal Capital, Inc. with a claimed balance of
$5,671,374.73 as of the Petition Date.
Previously, the Debtor filed for bankruptcy which was dismissed due
to lack of offers sufficient to satisfy the secured debt. However,
since the filing the Debtor has received a contract in excess of
the secured debt and the real estate market in the location has
generated more interest.
Specifically, 610 W Dilido Dr. is nearby and listed at $17.5M and
contingent. This equals a price per sq ft of $3,721. Based on the
Debtor's sq ft of 3,398 the comparable for the property would be
$12,643,958.00. Notably, smaller square foot homes such as the
Property generally sell for a higher price per square foot, so the
Debtor’s Property likely exceeds $12.643 million based on the
comparable.
The As Is Residential Contract for Sale and Purchase with Jack
Seeligson Storm is in the amount of $11,900,000.00. The
contemplated transaction is an arms-length transaction, and neither
the Purchaser, nor any of its member(s), are insiders of the
Debtor.
The agreement with Purchaser is the result of marketing the
Property.
Transaction will close on February 25, 2026 unless specifically
extended by other provisions of the contract.
Seller and Buyer shall direct the closing agent to disburse at
closing the 6% commission. Seller's listing brokerage is Nelson
Gonzalez of Esslinger Wooten Maxwell, Inc. d/b/a Berkshire Hathaway
Homeservices
EWM Realty.
The Debtor, exercising its business judgment, believes that the
sale of the Property to the Purchaser is in the best interest of
the bankruptcy estate.
Debtor by and through officer Mark Siffin should be authorized to
execute any and all documents necessary to effectuate the closing
including the deed and related documents necessary to consummate
the closing of the sale transaction.
As part of the sale process, Debtor requests authorization to pay
all fees and costs associated with the sale, including brokerage
commission of 6% to Nelson Gonzalez of Esslinger Wooten Maxwell,
Inc. d/b/a Berkshire Hathaway Homeservices EWM Realty.
Here there is no adequate remedy at law due to the uniqueness of
Property and the public policy of allowing bankruptcy sales to pay
off secured debt and allow for payment of general
unsecured creditors.
About 527 Edilido LLC

527 Edilido LLC sought relief under Chapter 11 of the U.S.
Bankruptcy Code (Bankr. S.D. Fla. Case No. 25-22584) on October 24,

ALBANY INN: Plan Exclusivity Period Extended to February 13, 2026
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Judge Elizabeth S. Stong of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the
Eastern District of New York extended Albany Inn LLC and Albany
Equity LLC's exclusive periods to file a plan of reorganization and
obtain acceptance thereof to February 13, 2026 and April 13, 2026,
respectively.
As shared by Troubled Company Reporter, the cornerstone of a
chapter 11 plan for Equity will be through a sale of the property.
Equity has received written offers for the purchase of the
Property. The present offers generated will be sufficient to pay
its creditors in full. However, it is in the best interest of
Equity to delay entering into a contract of sale and/or file a
reorganization plan based on a sale until Inn decides whether to
affiliate itself with another national or regional hotel operator.
Inn is delinquent in its obligations to Equity under the Equity Inn
Lease. In the event that Equity proceeds with a sale of the
Property, a resolution of issues involving the Equity-Inn Lease
will have to be negotiated. Neither Equity nor Inn are in a
position to resolve these issues presently.
Inn explains that it requires additional time to file a plan of
reorganization pending progress in its efforts to collect revenues
from the ACDSS, a process that it is presently undertaking and to
finalize the intercompany debt with Equity assuming the likely
rejection of the Equity-Inn Lease.

ALGORHYTHM HOLDINGS: Reports $2.98MM Net Loss in 2025 Q3
--------------------------------------------------------
Algorhythm Holdings, Inc. filed with the U.S. Securities and
Exchange Commission its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q reporting a
net loss of $2,982,000 for the three months ended September 30,
2025, compared to a net income of $974,000 for the three months
ended September 30, 2024.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company reported
a net loss of $13,085,000, compared to a net loss of $7,513,000
for the same period in 2024.
Net sales for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024,
were $1,744,000 and $127,000, respectively. For the nine months
ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, the Company had net sales of
$3,018,000 and $127,000, respectively.
As of September 30, 2025, the Company had $10,845,000 in total
assets, $10,745,000 in total liabilities, and a total stockholders'
equity of $100,000.
Algorhythm said, "Since our inception, we have funded our
operations primarily through cash generated by our operations,
private sales of equity securities and the use of short- and
long-term debt. As of September 30, 2025, our cash balance was
$2,839,000."
This will not be sufficient to fund the Company's planned
operations for at least the next 12 months.
"Net cash used by operating activities attributable to continuing
operations was $4,343,000 during the nine-month period ended
September 30, 2025, compared to $3,770,000 during the nine-month
period ended September 30, 2024. The increase of $573,000 was due
primarily to an increase of $7,523,000 for loss from continuing
operations, partially offset by an increase of $6,468,000 for the
loss that we incurred in connection with the change in fair value
of warrants sold in the public offering of securities that we
completed on December 6, 2024."
"Net cash used by investing activities attributable to continuing
operations was $1,888,000 during the nine-month period ended
September 30, 2025, compared to cash provided by investing
activities attributable to continuing operations of $17,000 during
the nine-month period ended September 30, 2024. The difference of
$1,905,000 was due primarily to increases of $1,172,000 for
advances to SMCB under our loan agreement with them, $758,000 for
repurchases of shares of our common stock, and $541,000 for the
capitalization of internal use software costs. These increases were
partially offset by an increase of $593,000 for cash received in
connection with our acquisition of SMCB on May 2, 2025.
"Net cash provided by financing activities attributable to
continuing operations was $4,115,000 during the nine-month period
ended September 30, 2025, compared to $1,103,000 during the
nine-month period ended September 30, 2024. The difference of
$3,012,000 was due primarily to an increase of $4,293,000 for
proceeds from the issuance of promissory notes, partially offset by
a decrease of $1,489,000 for proceeds from the sale of stock.
"Our limited cash resources along with our recent history of
recurring operating losses and decreases in working capital create
substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.
To date, our capital needs have been met through cash generated by
our operations, sales of our equity securities and the use of
short- and long-term debt to fund our operations. We have used
these sources of capital to pay virtually all of the costs and
expenses that we have incurred to date.
"These costs and expenses have been composed primarily of the
professional fees, employee compensation expenses, and general and
administrative expenses discussed above. We intend to continue to
rely upon each of these sources to fund our operations and
expansion efforts, including additional acquisitions of controlling
or non-controlling financial interests in other complementary
businesses and companies during the next 12 months.
"We can provide no assurance that these sources of capital will be
adequate to fund our operations and expansion efforts during the
next 12 months. If these sources of capital are not adequate, we
will need to obtain additional capital through alternative sources
of financing. We may attempt to obtain additional capital through
the sale of equity securities or the issuance of short- and
long-term debt.
"If we raise additional funds by issuing shares of our common
stock, our stockholders will experience dilution. If we raise
additional funds by issuing securities exercisable or convertible
into shares of our common stock, our stockholders will experience
dilution in the event the securities are exercised or converted, as
the case may be, into shares of our common stock.
"Debt financing may involve agreements containing covenants
limiting or restricting our ability to take specific actions, such
as incurring additional debt, issuing equity securities, making
capital expenditures for certain purposes or above a certain
amount, or declaring dividends. In addition, any equity securities
or debt that we issue may have rights, preferences and privileges
senior to those of the shares of common stock held by our
stockholders.
"We have not made arrangements to obtain additional capital and can
provide no assurance that additional financing will be available in
an amount or on terms acceptable to us, if at all. Our ability to
obtain additional capital will be subject to a number of factors,
including market conditions and our operating performance.
"These factors may make the timing, amount, terms and conditions of
any proposed future financing transactions unattractive to us. If
we cannot raise additional capital when needed, or if such capital
cannot be obtained on acceptable terms, we may not be able to pay
our costs and expenses as they are incurred, take advantage of
future acquisition opportunities, respond to competitive pressures
or unanticipated events, or otherwise execute upon our business
plan.
"This may adversely affect our business, financial condition and
results of operations and, in the extreme case, cause us to
discontinue our operations."

AMERICAN RESOURCES: Dismisses GBQ, Hires GreenGrowth as Auditor
---------------------------------------------------------------
American Resources Corporation disclosed in a Form 8-K Report filed
with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission that on November
21, 2025, the Company, through action of the Audit Committee of the
Board of Directors, dismissed GBQ Partners LLC as the Company's
independent registered public accounting firm.
The reports of GBQ on the Company's consolidated financial
statements for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2023, and
December 31, 2024 did not contain an adverse opinion or a
disclaimer of opinion, and were not qualified or modified as to
uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles other than an
explanatory paragraph relating to the Company's ability to continue
as a going concern.
During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2023 and December 31,
2024, and through the date of termination, November 21, 2025, there
were no "disagreements" with GBQ on any matter of accounting
principles or practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing
scope or procedure, which disagreements if not resolved to the
satisfaction of GBQ would have caused GBQ to make reference thereto
in its reports on the consolidated financial statement for such
years.
During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2023 and December 31,
2024 and through November 21, 2025, there have been no "reportable
events" (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) and Item 304(a)(1)(v) of
Registration S-K), except for the identified material weaknesses in
its internal control over financial reporting as disclosed in the
Company's Annual Report.
Following GBQ's dismissal, the Company, through action of the Audit
Committee, engaged GreenGrowth CPAs as the Company's new
independent public accounting firm. This appointment is effective
as of November 21, 2025.
During the Company's two most recent fiscal years, and any
subsequent interim period prior to engaging GreenGrowth, neither
the Company, nor anyone on its behalf, consulted GreenGrowth
regarding either:
(i) The application of accounting principles to a specified
transaction, either completed or proposed, or the type of audit
opinion that might be rendered with respect to the consolidated
financial statements of the Company, and no written report or oral
advice was provided to the Company by GreenGrowth that was an
important factor considered by the Company in reaching a decision
as to any accounting, auditing or financial reporting issue; or
(ii) any matter that was the subject of a "disagreement" (as
defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K and the related
instructions) or a "reportable event" (as that term is defined in
Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K).

AVALON GLOBOCARE: Faces Nasdaq Delisting Over Equity Rule
---------------------------------------------------------
Avalon GloboCare Corp. on November 19, 2025, received a letter from
the Listing Qualifications Department of The Nasdaq Stock Market
LLC indicating that the Company was not in compliance with Listing
Rule 5550(b). Unless the Company timely requests a hearing before
the Nasdaq Hearings Panel, trading of the Company's common stock
would be subject to suspension/delisting.
On May 22, 2025, Avalon received a letter from Nasdaq indicating
that the Company was not in compliance with the minimum
stockholders' equity requirement for continued listing on The
Nasdaq Capital Market, under Listing Rule 5550(b)(1), because:
a. The Company's stockholders' equity of ($3,891,270), as
reported in the Company's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the
period ended March 31, 2025, was below the required minimum of
$2,500,000, and
b. As of May 22, 2025, the Company did not meet the
alternative compliance standards, relating to the market value of
listed securities of $35 million or net income from continuing
operations of $500,000 in the most recently completed fiscal year
or in two of the last three most recently completed fiscal years.
The May Nasdaq Letter had no immediate impact on the listing of the
Company's common stock, which continued to be listed and traded on
The Nasdaq Capital Market, subject to the Company's compliance with
the other continued listing requirements.
Following the Company's submission of a plan to regain compliance
with Listing Rule 5550(b)(1), Nasdaq granted the Company an
extension of up to 180 calendar days from May 22, 2025, or through
November 18, 2025, to regain compliance.
The Company plans to timely request a hearing before the Panel,
which request will automatically stay any suspension or delisting
action by Nasdaq pending the hearing and the expiration of any
additional extension period granted by the Panel following the
hearing.

AZUL SA: Pursues $30MM AerCap Engine Financing
----------------------------------------------
James Nani of Bloomberg Law reports that Brazilian airline Azul SA
has asked the bankruptcy court for permission to secure $30 million
in financing from AerCap Ireland Ltd. to support much-needed
aircraft engine overhauls.
Under the proposed arrangement, AerCap -- Azul's largest aircraft
lessor -- would receive an unsecured priority claim within the
Chapter 11 case, according to a stipulation filed November 29, 2025
in the US Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York.
This financing request falls under a broader settlement reached in
August between Azul and AerCap Holdings' subsidiary, aimed at
restructuring Azul's aircraft fleet and lease obligations as the
company works toward exiting Chapter 11, the report states.
About Azul S.A.
Azul S.A. (B3: AZUL4, NYSE: AZUL), the largest airline in Brazil by
number of flight departures and cities served, offers 900 daily
flights to over 150 destinations. With an operating fleet of over
200 aircrafts and more than 15,000 Crewmembers, the Company has a

aviation data analysis company) as the most on-time airline in the
world in 2023. In 2020, Azul was awarded best airline in the world
by TripAdvisor, the first time a Brazilian flag carrier earned the
number one ranking in the Traveler's Choice Awards. On the Web:

BAFFINLAND IRON: S&P Lowers ICR to 'SD' on Distressed Transaction
-----------------------------------------------------------------
S&P Global Ratings lowered its issuer credit rating (ICR) on
Canada-based iron ore miner Baffinland Iron Mines Corp. to 'SD'
(selective default) from 'CCC-'.
S&P's 'CCC-' issue level rating, with a '4' recovery rating, on the
senior secured notes is unchanged.
S&P expects to raise its ICR on Baffinland as soon as practical,
likely within days, to a level that reflects the current credit
risk of the company, considering the transactions that were
completed.
Baffinland Iron Mines Corp. converted its substantially drawn
revolving credit facility to a term loan and extended the maturity
to May 31, 2027 (which will automatically accelerate to June 30,
2026, if the senior secured notes have not been extended beyond May
31, 2027, by March 31, 2026).
The company also reached an agreement to extend its $75 million
Export Development Canada (EDC) term credit facility with the same
maturity profile as the converted term loan.
S&P said, "Although the lenders received compensation for the
maturity extension in the form of higher interest rates, the
distressed context and timing of the transaction lead us to view it
as distressed. Supporting this view is our assessment that
Baffinland's capital structure was unsustainable when the revolver
was extended five days before its maturity date.
"Our downgrade of Baffinland to 'SD' follows the conversion of its
substantially drawn revolver to a term loan and the extension of
its maturity, which we consider a de facto restructuring. The
company recently entered an agreement with its lenders to extend
the maturity of its converted term loan from Nov. 30, 2025, to May
31, 2027 (which will automatically accelerate to June 30, 2026, if
the senior secured notes have not been extended beyond May 31,
2027, by March 31, 2026). Baffinland also upsized the letters of
credit (LOC) available under its revolving credit facility by $25
million. In addition, the company extended its $75 million EDC term
credit facility to the same maturity date as the converted term
loan.
"Although the lenders received compensation for the maturity
extension in the form of higher interest rates, the context and
timing of the transaction lead us to view it as distressed. We
believe that Baffinland had an unsustainable capital structure at
the time of the extension on Nov. 25. In our view, the company
would have likely faced a conventional default absent the extension
given its weak liquidity position and high utilization (about $155
million as of September 30, 2025, including the LOCs) of its
revolving credit facility."
The company's liquidity included less than $10 million of cash and
less than $5 million availability under its credit facility
(including LOCs).
S&P plans to raise its ICR on Baffinland as soon as practical,
likely within days, to a level that reflects the current credit
risk of the company based on the transactions that were completed.
BARRACUDA NETWORKS: Palmer Square Marks $10.2MM 1L Loan at 16% Off
------------------------------------------------------------------
Palmer Square Capital BDC Inc. has marked its $10,240,720 loan
extended to Barracuda Networks, Inc. to market at $8,633,592 or 84%
of the outstanding amount, according to Palmer Square's Form 10-Q
for the quarterly period ended September 30, 2025, filed with the
U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.
Palmer Square is a participant in a First Lien Senior Secured Loan
to Barracuda Networks, Inc. The loan accrues interest at a rate of
8.81% (S + 4.50%) per annum. The loan matures on August 15, 2029.

BCPE EMPIRE: S&P Places 'B-' ICR on CreditWatch Positive
--------------------------------------------------------
S&P Global Ratings placed all its ratings on distributor of food
service packaging (FSP) and facilities maintenance supplies BCPE
Empire Holdings Inc. (doing business as Imperial Dade), including
its 'B-' issuer credit rating, on CreditWatch with positive
implications.
S&P expects to resolve the CreditWatch by raising the rating to 'B'
if the merger is completed with terms largely in line with its
expectation.
Imperial Dade plans to merge with BradyPLUS Holdings LLC.
S&P expects that Imperial Dade will be the surviving entity and
will assume BradyPLUS' debt in an all-stock combination, which
should lower leverage for the company while increasing its scale.
S&P said, "The CreditWatch placement on Imperial Dade reflects our
expectation that its merger with BradyPLUS will lower leverage and
expand scale. BradyPLUS plans to issue a new $2.8 billion term loan
B to refinance its existing indebtedness ahead of the merger. Its
new term loan agreement will include a portability feature to allow
the loan to be assumed by Imperial Dade upon the completion of the
merger between the two companies. Outside of this term loan, we do
not expect Imperial Dade to assume any incremental debt and the
transaction should therefore lower leverage." Meanwhile, the scale
of the combined entity provides near-term opportunities for route
efficiency and facility consolidation, while longer-term cost
rationalization should improve profits and cash flow over time.
The combined company's lower leverage and anticipated improvement
in profitability will lead to S&P Global Ratings-adjusted leverage
sustained below 8x, free operating cash flow to debt above 3.5%,
and EBITDA interest coverage above 1.5x in 2026.
On a stand-alone basis, Imperial Dade has moved away from our
ratings upside thresholds. Leverage increased through the first
half of 2025 as facility consolidation costs and other nonrecurring
expenses continued to weigh on profit margins while average selling
prices also remained under pressure. Still, S&P expects margin
improvement and a reduction in one-time expenses that should lower
leverage over time.
S&P said, "We expect to resolve the CreditWatch by raising our
rating to 'B' once the merger closes with terms largely in line
with our expectations. Alternatively, if the merger does not
proceed, we would likely affirm the 'B-' rating."

BIOLINERX LTD: Narrows Net Loss to $977,000 in 2025 Q3
------------------------------------------------------
BioLineRx Ltd. filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange
Commission its financial results for the three and nine months
ended September 30, 2025, reporting a net loss of $977,000 for the
three months ended September 30, 2025, compared to a net loss of
$5.8 million for the same period in 2024.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company reported
a net income of $210,000, compared to a net loss of $6 million for
the same period in 2024.
Total revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and
2024, were $427,000 and $4.9 million, respectively. For the nine
months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, the Company had total
revenues of $986,000 and $17.2 million, respectively.
As of September 30, 2025, the Company had $39.8 million in total
assets, $20.3 million in total liabilities, and $19.5 million in
total equity.
The Company has incurred accumulated losses in the amount of $400
million through September 30, 2025, and it expects to continue
incurring losses and negative cash flows from operations until the
cash flows from its strategic partnerships reach a level to offset
its ongoing development costs. In this regard, Management monitors
rolling forecasts of the Company's liquidity reserves on the basis
of anticipated cash flows and seeks to maintain liquidity balances
at levels that are sufficient to meet its needs. Management
believes that the Company's current cash and other resources will
be sufficient to fund its projected cash requirements into the
first half of 2027.
The Company's cash flow projections are subject to various risks
and uncertainties concerning their fulfilment, and these factors
and the risks inherent in the Company's operations indicate that a
material uncertainty exists that may cast significant doubt (or
raise substantial doubt as contemplated by PCAOB standards) on the
Company's ability to continue as a going concern.
Management's plans include the realization of capital inflows from
its strategic partnerships and, if and when required, raising
capital through the issuance of debt or equity securities. There
are no assurances, however, that the Company will be successful in
obtaining the level of financing needed for its operations.
If the Company is unsuccessful in realizing the potential cash
flows from its strategic partnerships and/or in raising capital, it
may need to reduce activities, or curtail or cease operations.

BLUE SUN: Seeks to Extend Plan Exclusivity to Sept. 30, 2026
------------------------------------------------------------
Blue Sun Scientific, LLC and The Innovative Technologies Group &
Co, LTD asked the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District of
Maryland to extend their exclusivity periods to file a plan of
reorganization and obtain acceptance thereof to September 30, 2026
and November 30, 2026, respectively.
The Debtors explain that the pendency of the multi-million dollar
claims of the Debtors' competitor, KPM, a creditor that is not even
a trade creditor, makes this case complex at this stage of the
proceedings, although this is not a particularly large case. On the
surface, the Debtors' Plans will not be particularly complex as
they will dedicate their disposable income to pay the claims of
creditors over a period of time. What is complex is the
classification of claims and whether, for example, KPM, as a
non-trade creditor, would be separately classified from the
Debtors' trade creditors.
Similarly, balloting and the determination of acceptance or
rejection of Plans will be significantly impacted by whether KPM is
entitled to participate in balloting and, if so, the amount of its
claim. By declining to consent to having the stay lifted and by
objecting to the Applications to employ Smith Duggan, KPM has
already caused a waste of time and money in these cases and has
demonstrated the lengths to which it may be willing to go to
attempt to disrupt and frustrate the Debtors' reorganization
efforts in order to put its competitors out of business.
The Debtors believe it is prudent, and in the best interest of the
Debtors' respective estates, to preserve their exclusive right to
file Plans while the First Circuit resolves the KPM claim in the
only jurisdiction in which that claim can be resolved.
The Debtors acknowledge that a nine-month extension as an initial
request is on the longer side of such requests; however, under the
facts and circumstances presented in these cases, the Debtors
believe that such an extension is appropriate. The length of time
that is required is a factor of how long it will take to obtain a
decision in the First Circuit. In large part, that time frame is
based upon the briefing schedule that will be established in the
First Circuit.
The Debtors note that KPM is directly responsible for several
months of delay in getting to this point. Had KPM consented to
relief from the stay and agreed not to object to the Applications
to employ Smith Duggan, the parties would have already been well
into the briefing period in the First Circuit. Instead, the ill
fated actions of KPM have delayed the appellate proceedings by more
than two months.
The Debtors assert that they do not seek these extensions for the
purpose of unduly delaying these proceedings or for any other
improper purpose. Rather, the Debtors seek these extensions for the
reasons stated in detail and assert that good cause exists to
extend the Debtors' Exclusive Periods to file proposed Plans and
solicit acceptances thereto.

BOMBARDIER INC: Moody's Hikes CFR to 'Ba3', Outlook Positive
------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Ratings upgraded Bombardier Inc.'s ("Bombardier") corporate
family rating to Ba3 from B1, its probability of default rating to
Ba3-PD from B1-PD and senior unsecured notes ratings to Ba3 from
B1. LearJet Inc.'s B1 rating on its backed senior unsecured revenue
bonds issued by the Connecticut Development Authority were
withdrawn after full repayment of the debt. Bombardier's outlook
has been maintained at positive.
"The upgrade reflects Bombardier's continued progress reducing its
financial leverage, increased earnings, improved margins and strong
free cash flow position" said Moody's Ratings Analyst, Will Gu.
RATINGS RATIONALE
Bombardier continues to post improvements in its margins and
earnings and at the same time reduce its absolute debt level. The
company has generated positive free cash flow since 2021 and
Moody's anticipate over $500MM of FCF for 2025; its adjusted
operating margin increased to 11.4% as of LTM September 2025
compared to 9.4% in 2023. Revenue visibility continues to remain
strong and LTM revenue book to bill was 1.85x as of Q3/25 with a
$16.6B backlog. Additionally, the company continues to reduce debt,
with $350 million confirmed to be repaid by year end 2025 with the
expectation that additional repayment continues to occur through
2026.
Bombardier's Ba3 CFR benefits from: 1) very good liquidity over the
next year; 2) significant scale; 3) a strong market position within
the business jet market; and 4) a $16.6 billion backlog.
Bombardier's rating is constrained by: 1) its participation in the
cyclical business jet market which has a number of strong
competitors and a niche consumer base; and 2) high fixed charges of
about $650 million per year (interest and capital expenditures)
that can constrain the company's free cash flow.
Bombardier has very good liquidity (SGL-1), with about $2.3 billion
of sources versus about $500 million of uses. Sources are cash of
about $1.2 billion at September 30, 2025, full availability on its
$450 million ABL facility that expires in 2029, and Moody's
estimate of about $650 million in free cash flow generation in
2026. Uses total around $500M, mostly relating to debt prepayments
and leases. The company has $108 million of debt due in December
2026, and has already issued a notice of redemption for the
remainder of the 2027 notes. Bombardier has meaningful inter
quarter working capital swings that require the company hold ample
liquidity.
The positive outlook reflects Moody's expectation that Bombardier
will continue to generate free cash flow and that margins and
financial leverage will improve in 2026 and 2027, with leverage
trending below 3.5x in Moody's forward view.
FACTORS THAT COULD LEAD TO AN UPGRADE OR DOWNGRADE OF THE RATINGS
The ratings could be upgraded if adjusted debt to EBITDA is
sustained below 3.5x and the company sustains good free cash flow
generation such that FCF/Debt is above 3%.
The ratings could be downgraded if Bombardier sees a deterioration
in its operating performance or there are problems with its ability
to deliver aircraft in line with its guidance. The ratings could
also be downgraded if debt to EBITDA is sustained above 4.5x, or if
free cash flow weakens significantly.
Bombardier has a dual class share structure by where the founding
family has 50.4% of the voting rights through a special class of
stock carrying 10 votes a share. The same group also has four of
the company's 14 board seats.
The principal methodology used in these ratings was Aerospace and
Defense published in July 2025.
The net effect of any adjustments applied to rating factor scores
or scorecard outputs under the primary methodology(ies), if any,
was not material to the ratings addressed in this announcement.
Headquartered in Montreal, Quebec, Canada, Bombardier Inc. is a
manufacturer of business jets.

CAPSTONE GREEN: Raises $15 Million in PIPE Financing
----------------------------------------------------
Capstone Green Energy Holdings, Inc. disclosed in a Form 8-K Report
filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission that on
November 24, 2025, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase
Agreement with certain accredited investors, relating to a private
investment in public equity financing of an aggregate of:
(a) 3,980,000 shares of the Company's Common Stock, par value
$0.001 per share, at a price per Share equal to $2.00 and
(b) Pre-Funded Warrants to purchase 3,520,000 shares of Common
Stock at a price per Pre-Funded Warrant equal to the same price as
that for Shares minus $0.001, and the remaining exercise price of
each Pre-Funded Warrant will equal $0.001 per share, for estimated
gross proceeds to the Company of approximately $15 million, before
deducting placement agent fees and other offering costs and
expenses.
The shares of Common Stock and Pre-Funded Warrants sold in the PIPE
are sometimes hereafter referred to as the "Securities." The
Company intends to use the proceeds from the PIPE for repayment of
approximately $8.0 million of the Company's outstanding
indebtedness maturing on December 7, 2025 and for working capital
and general corporate purposes.
Under the Pre-Funded Warrants, a holder will not be entitled to
exercise any portion of any Pre-Funded Warrant that, upon giving
effect to such exercise, would cause the aggregate number of shares
of Common Stock beneficially owned by such holder (together with
its affiliates) to exceed 4.99% of the number of shares of Common
Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the exercise,
as such percentage ownership is determined in accordance with the
terms of the Pre-Funded Warrant, which percentage may be changed at
the holder's election to a higher or lower percentage not in excess
of 9.99% upon 61 days' notice to the Company.
In addition, in certain circumstances, upon a fundamental
transaction, a holder of Pre-Funded Warrants will be entitled to
receive, upon exercise of the Pre-Funded Warrants, the kind and
amount of securities, cash or other property that such holder would
have received had they exercised the Pre-Funded Warrants
immediately prior to the fundamental transaction.
In connection with the Purchase Agreement, the Company entered into
a registration rights agreement with each Purchaser. Pursuant to
the Registration Rights Agreement, the Company is required to file
a resale registration statement with the Securities and Exchange
Commission to register for resale the Shares and the Pre-Funded
Warrant Shares within 30 days of the signing date of the
Registration Rights Agreement, and to use its commercially
reasonable efforts to have such Registration Statement declared
effective within 30 calendar days after the Filing Date in the
event the Registration Statement is not reviewed by the SEC, or 75
calendar days of the Filing Date in the event the Registration
Statement is subject to a full SEC review.

officers of the Company and up to $100,000 for all out-of-pocket
accountable legal fees, travel expenses related to the PIPE and all
other out-of-pocket accountable third-party expenses incurred by

CAR TOYS: Creditors' Committee Seeks Chapter 11 Trustee Appointment
-------------------------------------------------------------------
The official committee of unsecured creditors asked the U.S.
Bankruptcy Court for the Western District of Washington to appoint
an independent trustee to take over Car Toys, Inc.'s Chapter 11
case.
Laurie Thornton, Esq., the committee's attorney, said Car Toys
lacks the funds to continue pursuing Chapter 11 plan confirmation.
Ms. Thornton cited the company's latest budget showing cash nearly
depleted and no new bankruptcy loan expected until mid- to
late-December.
"Rather than incur the administrative costs of preparing that plan
and moving it through the confirmation process, the committee
believes that a trustee should just be appointed to determine
whether a plan process is even viable or necessary," the attorney
said, adding that the appointment would reduce further
administrative costs by consolidating case administration under a
Chapter 11 trustee.
Ms. Thornton also cited continued gross mismanagement, which
supports the need for an independent trustee.
The attorney accused Car Toys CEO Dan Brettler and the board of
breaching fiduciary duties by continuing to operate the company
while insolvent and taking on more than $17 million in secured
debt.
"The committee believes creditors would have been better off if the
company had just gone into bankruptcy in 2023 rather than
continuing to operate at tremendous expense to creditors in the
hopes some unicorn buyer would come along," Ms. Thornton said.
A court hearing is scheduled for December 12.

CARZONE $ AUTO: Seeks Cash Collateral Access
--------------------------------------------
Carzone $ Auto Brokers, LLC asks the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the
Eastern District of Virginia, Newport News Division, for authority
to use cash collateral and provide adequate protection.
The Debtor intends to use cash collateral including funds and
assets in which certain creditors may have a secured interest.
These include Fountainhead SBF LLC, the U.S. Small Business
Administration, NewCo, Everee, and floor plan financing providers
NextGear Capital, Kinetic Advantage, and Westlake Flooring Company.
The Debtor proposes interim use of cash collateral for 30 days
based on a detailed budget, which allocates approximately $75,000
in projected income against $60,550 in expenses, covering
obligations to secured creditors, rent, insurance, wages,
utilities, advertising, and other operating costs, resulting in net
income of $14,450.
Adequate protection is offered to creditors in the form of the
Debtor's equity in the collateral, continued maintenance of assets,
and liens on replacement collateral generated through operations.
The Debtor also seeks authority to pay U.S. Trustee fees, adjust
budget line items by up to 10% without further Court approval, and
carry forward unused budget amounts to future periods as
necessary.
Carzone's business has faced operational challenges, including
multiple post-sale vehicle accidents and insurance claims, and
reduced sales. The Debtor asserts that use of cash collateral is
necessary to continue its operations, maintain its value as a going
concern, and reorganize successfully, noting that it has two
employees and maintains assets including accounts receivable,
inventory, and equipment.
A court hearing is scheduled for December 19.

Chaince Digital Holdings Inc. has entered into a non-binding
Strategic Cooperation Framework Agreement with ZJK Industrial Co.,
Ltd. to build a precision components R&D and manufacturing
gigafactory in the United States serving the AI, semiconductor, and
other advanced technology industries.
The companies plan to deploy up to $200 million through multiple
projects, utilizing both self-owned capital and external

and a subsidiary of Chaince Digital, has been appointed by ZJK as
its capital markets strategic advisor for a five-year term,

Digital and its subsidiaries in bridging traditional capital
markets with emerging digital-asset infrastructure.
Delaware Joint Venture to Serve as U.S. Gigafactory's Operating
Entity:
The companies will form a Delaware joint venture to serve as the
operating entity for the precision components R&D and manufacturing
gigafactory. This joint venture will oversee all facility
operations, from advanced research and development to full-scale
production for the AI, semiconductor, and other high-tech
industries, supported by a fully localized and compliant U.S.
operating structure.
U.S. Localized Management Team and Competitive Advantages:
The strategic collaboration is intended to advance the broader
made-in-America vision by combining ZJK's extensive manufacturing
expertise with Chaince Digital's strengths in capital markets,
digital technologies, and industrial networks.
The venture's competitive advantages are expected to include:
* A U.S.-based management team with executives from leading
American companies
* Deep expertise spanning traditional manufacturing, consumer
electronics supply chains, and automotive manufacturing
* Positioning as a core supplier for high-end U.S.
manufacturing sectors
The joint venture will target key industries including AI hardware,
semiconductor equipment, electric vehicles, and consumer
electronics--delivering high-value precision components to
technology companies while accelerating the localization of supply
chains.

CHG US: Seeks to Extend Plan Exclusivity to March 9, 2026
---------------------------------------------------------
CHG US Holdings LLC, and affiliates asked the U.S. Bankruptcy Court
for the District of Delaware to extend their exclusivity periods to
file a plan of reorganization and obtain acceptance thereof to
March 9, 2026 and May 11, 2026, respectively.
The Debtors explain that the Sale Order approving the Sale was
entered on August 1, 2025, and the Closing occurred on August 18,
2025. The Debtors' focus to this point in the Chapter 11 Cases has
been on a successful going concern Sale that would preserve as many
of the Debtors' restaurant locations and employees as possible.
This was a complex process that was successfully navigated. With
Closing having occurred, the Debtors have shifted focus to
determining how a Plan process might be structured, but require an
extension of the Exclusive Periods to continue to do so.
The Debtors claim that their substantial progress to date in
administering these Chapter 11 Cases with a goal of a going concern
sale followed by a plan process warrants an extension of the
Exclusive Periods to allow the Debtors and Committee more time to
explore options for a plan. The Debtors have engaged in discussions
with the Committee regarding the prospects for and contours of a
confirmable plan that will result in a recovery to the Debtors'
unsecured creditors. An extension of a debtor's Exclusive Periods
is justified by a debtor's progress in resolving issues facing its
creditors.
Moreover, the Debtors' request for an extension of the Exclusive
Periods is the Debtors' second such request. In the initial months
of the Chapter 11 Bankruptcy Cases, the Debtors have also expended
significant time and effort addressing and resolving questions,
concerns, and issues raised by employees, vendors, utility
companies, and other parties in interest. The Debtors will continue
to work diligently with all stakeholders as and if a plan process
plays out. Nonetheless, the fact that this is the Debtors' second
request for an extension supports granting the requested
extension.
The Debtors assert that they are not seeking an extension of the
Exclusive Periods to pressure or prejudice any of their
stakeholders. The Debtors have been diligently moving these Chapter
11 Cases forward, first with the Sale process, and now with an eye
towards achieving a confirmed plan that nets a recovery to
creditors. Accordingly, the relief requested herein does not
prejudice the Debtors' creditors and will benefit the Debtors'
estates, their creditors, and all other key parties in interest.
The Debtors further assert that an objective analysis of the
relevant factors demonstrates that, under the circumstances of
these Chapter 11 Cases, the Debtors are doing everything that they
should be doing to facilitate a successful conclusion with a
confirmed plan. Accordingly, sufficient cause exists to extend the
Exclusive Periods as provided herein.

CIRTRAN CORP: Reports $419,878 Net Loss in 2025 Q3
--------------------------------------------------
CirTran Corporation filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange
Commission its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q reporting a net loss
of $419,878 for the three months ended September 30, 2025, compared
to a net loss of $899,953 for the three months ended September 30,
2024.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company reported
a net loss of $1,138,064, compared to a net loss of $1,814,150 for
the same period in 2024.
Net sales for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024,
were $448,492 and $256,070, respectively. For the nine months
ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, the Company had net sales of
$1,077,743 and $1,075,952, respectively.
As of September 30, 2025, the Company had $1,917,044 in total
assets, $27,460,669 in total liabilities, and $25,543,625 in total
stockholders' deficit.
The Company had a working capital deficiency of $22,897,132, as of
September 30, 2025, and a net loss from continuing operations of
$1,013,957 for the nine months ended September 30, 2025.
As of September 30, 2025, it had an accumulated deficit of
$62,782,131. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the
Company's ability to continue as a going concern.
CirTran's ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon
its ability to successfully accomplish its business plan and
eventually attain profitable operations.
In the coming year, the Company's foreseeable cash requirements
will relate to the development of business operations and
associated expenses. The Company may experience a cash shortfall
and be required to raise additional capital.
Historically, the Company has mainly relied upon shareholder loans
and advances to finance operations and growth.
Management may raise additional capital by retaining net earnings,
if any, or through future public or private offerings of stock or
loans from private investors, although it cannot assure that the
Company will be able to obtain such financing. Failure to do so
could have a material and adverse effect upon the shareholders and
the Company.

Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, citing
that the Company has a working capital deficiency, a net loss from

COVIA HOLDINGS: S&P Affirms 'B' ICR on Term Loan Add-On
-------------------------------------------------------
S&P Global Ratings affirmed its 'B' issuer credit rating on Covia
Holdings LLC.
S&P said, "We also rate the company's senior secured debt,
including the term loan B with the proposed fungible term loan
add-on, at a 'B' issue-level rating. At the same time, we lowered
the recovery rating to '4' from '3' based on expectations for
average recovery prospects.
"The stable outlook reflects our expectation that Covia will
sustain leverage of 5x over the next 12 months despite softening
demand across its industrial end markets but supported by improving
profitability from product mix improvement."
Covia is issuing a $250 million fungible term loan add-on due in
2032 with proceeds funding a $250 million distribution.
This debt-funded shareholder distribution will sustain leverage at
5x over the coming years. While the higher leverage will reduce the
cushion against our downside trigger, we believe the company's
earnings will grow modestly and with lower volatility.
Covia's debt-funded shareholder distribution reduces the cushion
against our downside trigger. Debt to EBITDA will likely reach 5x
in 2025, compared to our previous expectation of 4x following a
refinancing earlier this year. The company intends to issue a $250
million fungible term loan add-on to fund a $250 million dividend.
Upon completion of the transaction, the company's S&P adjusted debt
balance will be roughly $1.232 billion, which includes $1.098
billion of first-lien debt and about $117 million of lease
liabilities, asset retirement obligations, and pension
obligations.
Going forward, this will further shrink cushion in the credit
metrics compared our earlier expectations, as the stand-alone
company already faced a higher debt burden after splitting with its
energy segment and refinancing earlier this year. An EBITDA decline
of about 15% would result in leverage of 6x compared to a roughly
30% cushion previously.
That said, earnings and leverage will likely be more stable than
historical figures because the remaining industrial business has
very limited commodity price exposure; sells higher-margin,
value-added products; sells to less price-sensitive customers; and
should experience stable growth in line with overall GDP growth.
S&P said, "We also expect free operating cash flow (FOCF) and
EBITDA interest coverage to modestly improve. Finally, interest
rate burden has declined following the term loan repricing earlier
this year, despite the proposed increase in debt. We now expect
cash interest of about $70 million compared to $85 million
previously."
Underlying business performance is resilient as product mix offsets
end-market weakness. S&P anticipates leverage of 5x during 2026
based on its expectations of relatively flat EBITDA over the next
12 months. Although Covia's business is performing well despite a
challenging demand environment in the building materials space,
housing starts will likely decline further this year and remodeling
demand has been soft as interest rates remain high and tariffs
create inflation concerns for end customers.
Covia's strategy of prioritizing higher-value product sales over
pure volume growth is driving higher gross profit per ton despite
resulting in lower volumes sold this year (when comparing year over
year for the industrial business on a stand-alone basis). Overall
gross margin and EBITDA margins are also higher as expected
following the split of the energy business. S&P expects EBITDA of
$240 million to $250 million in 2025 and 2026. This is stronger
than 2024 EBITDA of about $205 million as the company undertook
restructuring actions of about $27 million as part of the
separation.
Covia's industrial business provides highly specified and
customized products--some with limited substitutions--which drives
customer retention and the ability to pass on pricing increases.
The company also has decent end-market diversity serving a wide
range of industrial markets such as the construction, building
materials, consumer products, and packaging markets.
The stable outlook reflects S&P's expectation that Covia will
sustain leverage of 5x over the next 12 months despite softening
demand across its industrial end markets, supported by improving
profitability from product mix and stable pricing.
S&P could lower the ratings if:
-- Leverage sustains above 6x. This could occur if steady earnings
and cash flow are disrupted by lower prices or lower volumes from
overcapacity or loss of customers, or even higher costs with no
pricing offset because of its relative strength compared to
customers; or
-- The company incurs further large debt-financed acquisitions or
shareholder returns.
S&P could raise its rating on Covia in the next 12 months if the
company:
-- Sustains adjusted leverage of 3x-4x and we expect the financial
sponsor will adhere to policies that maintain this leverage; and
-- Generates improving FOCF and EBITDA margins, indicating more
stable earnings and stronger competitive position of the core
industrial business, following the separation of the energy
business.

CSC HOLDINGS: $2BB 1st Lien Term Loan No Impact on Moody's Caa2 CFR
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Ratings said CSC Holdings, LLC's (CSC) $2 billion first
lien term loan due November 25, 2028 (Subsidiary TL) at indirect
wholly-owned and unrestricted subsidiaries of Optimum
Communications, Inc., CSC's parent, is credit neutral. On November
25, 2025, CSC entered into a 14th amendment to its credit agreement
which removed several prohibitions on liens present in the previous
13th amendment to its credit agreement that allowed for the
issuance of the Subsidiary TL under a new and separate credit
agreement at unrestricted subsidiaries Cablevision Litchfield, LLC
and CSC Optimum Holdings, LLC. The Subsidiary TL was issued under a
two-step process that began with an incremental $2 billion term
loan B-7 first issued at CSC to retire all outstanding debt
approximating $1.95 billion under CSC's existing incremental term
loan B-6 due January 17, 2028. Almost immediately after, net
proceeds from the Subsidiary TL were then used to fully retire that
$2 billion term loan B-7. The Subsidiary TL is unrated, will be
secured on a structurally separate basis than CSC's existing
secured debt and will benefit from security in separate but
valuable assets. Moody's view the Subsidiary TL as structurally
senior in priority to existing secured debt in CSC's capital
structure. All other credit ratings, including the company's Caa2
corporate family rating (CFR), remain unchanged. The outlook
remains unchanged at negative.
CSC's credit profile reflects the increasing risk that the capital
structure is unsustainable given elevated debt leverage (Moody's
adjusted) of 8.4x for the latest 12 month period ended September
30, 2025 and competitively-pressured and weak operating results.
The company's broadband subscribers, which helped offset subscriber
losses in voice and video in the past, have been declining steadily
since 2022 due to the very high competitive intensity resulting
from fixed wireless access and fiber broadband service providers
taking market share across CSC's footprint. The ratings also
reflect the elevated risk of a distressed exchange over the near to
medium term which is heightened by the distressed trading levels of
outstanding debt. Moody's negative outlook reflects the expectation
for continued increases in debt leverage (Moody's adjusted) and the
risk of a distressed exchange in the next 12 months.
Headquartered in Long Island City, New York, CSC Holdings, LLC
passes over 9.9 million passings in 21 states and serves
approximately 4.4 million residential and business customers. The
company is wholly-owned by Optimum Communications, Inc. (Optimum),
a public company with a controlling interest held by Patrick
Drahi. For the 12 months ended September 30, 2025, CSC generated
$8.6 billion in revenue. In 2020 Altice sold 49.99% of Lightpath
Group (Cablevision Lightpath LLC and its subsidiaries), its fiber
enterprise business, to Morgan Stanley Infrastructure Partners for
an enterprise value of $3.2 billion. Optimum retains a 50.01%
interest in Lightpath Group, maintains control of the company and
consolidates its financial results.

DCA OUTDOOR: Seeks to Sell Nursery Business at Auction
------------------------------------------------------
DCA Outdoor Inc. and its affiliates seek permission from the U.S.
Bankruptcy Court for the Western District of Missouri, Kansas City
Division, to sell substantially all Assets at auction, free and
clear of liens, claims, interests, and encumbrances.
On March 10, 2025, the United States Trustee's Office appointed a
committee of seven unsecured creditors to form the Official
Committee of Unsecured Creditors pursuant to Section 1102 of the
Bankruptcy Code. The Committee has retained Spencer Fane LLP as its
attorneys and Dundon Advisers LLC as its financial advisor.
On September 11, 2025, the Court entered the Stipulated Order
Granting, Authorizing, and Approving the Retention and Employment
of Brent King as Chief Restructuring Officer of Debtors.
The Debtors consist of 20 different entities that together form a
so-called "vertically integrated" nursery operation. The Debtors
are generally classified into one of five categories based upon
such Debtor's primary function. These five categories include the
following:
a. Management – DCA Outdoor, Inc. (the lead Debtor);
b. Land –
i. Colonial Gardens Development, LLC;
ii. DCA Land Holding Company, LLC;
iii. DCA Land Illinois, LLC;
iv. DCA Land Indiana, LLC;
v. DCA Land Kansas, LLC;
vi. DCA Land Kentucky, LLC
vii. DCA Land Missouri, LLC and
viii. DCA Land Oregon, LLC;
c. Production –
i. Anna Evergreen, LLC;
ii. Schwope Brothers Tree Farms, LLC;
iii. Schwope Brothers West Coast, LLC;
iv. Utopian Plants Indiana, LLC; and
v. Utopian Trees, Inc. (commonly referred to as "Utopian Plants
Kansas");
d. Distribution –
i. Brehob Nurseries, LLC;
ii. KAT Nurseries, LLC;
iii. PlantRight Supply, LLC; and
iv. Utopian Transport, LLC; and
e. Retail –
i. Colonial Farms, LLC; and
ii. Colonial Gardens, LLC
DCA Outdoor was formed as a management company for the other
Debtors and certain non-Debtor affiliates. DCA Outdoor is
responsible for carrying out the administrative, executive, and
other overhead roles that are non-business line specific, including
human resources, accounting, finance, technology, sales and
marketing, and employs individuals for such functions.
CGD owns land that is leased to and used by the Retail Debtors.
Each of Land Illinois, Land Indiana, Land Kansas, Land Kentucky,
Land Missouri, and Land Oregon own real estate in the specific
states indicated by their name that is leased to and used by (a)
AE, as to the land owned by Land Illinois, (b) Brehob and UPI, as
to the land owned by Land Indiana, (c) UPK, as to the land owned by
Land Kansas, (d) non-Debtor affiliate Valley Hill Tree Farm, LLC,
as to the land owned by Land Kentucky, (e) SBTF, as to the land
owned by Land Missouri, and (f) SBWC, as to the land owned by Land
Oregon.
Frontier Farm Credit, FLCA and Frontier Farm Credit, PCA Frontier
Farm Credit, PCA, are the primary, senior secured creditors to each
Debtor. Frontier's prepetition liens and security interests
encumber substantially all of Debtors' assets.
To secure, among other obligations, Debtors' obligations under and
with respect to the Frontier Facility, each Debtor granted to
Frontier a first priority security interest in and lien on the
following personal property.
As of the Petition Date, more than $96.35 million was outstanding
under the Frontier Facility and all obligations under the Frontier
Facility are fully due and owing.
On May 9, 2025, the Debtors filed applications to retain four
different real estate brokers to market six different parcels of
real estate owned by certain of the Debtors. On June 2, 2025, the
Court entered orders approving each of the Prior Applications.
The Debtors employ Root Realty LLC as Broker for the Marketing and
Sale of Certain of Debtors' Assets.
Root Realty has substantially finalized the Debtors' data room with
material information regarding the Debtors' assets, has begun
reaching out to prospective bidders and buyers, is engaging with
interested parties to support a broad marketing reach (including
entering into non-disclosure agreements to facilitate access to the
Debtors' data room so interested parties can conduct diligence on
the available assets), and is preparing to formally launch a
widespread marketing campaign with respect to the Debtors' assets.
Given the Debtors' various business operations, the Debtors believe
a multi-tiered approach to the Transaction(s) will be facilitate a
realization of the highest and best value for their assets, while
balancing the urgency of downsizing its operations to the ongoing
losses heading into the Debtors' slower season.
The Deadlines for First and Second Tranche of Assets are also
provided at https://urlcurt.com/u?l=to8Evt
Debtors request that an initial hearing on the Motion be set on or
before December 5, 2025, to approve the Bid Procedures Order,
including, without limitation, the Bid Procedures.
Debtors request that any objection to the Bid Procedures,
Assumption and Assignment Procedures, the Transaction Notice, or
the Assignment Notice be filed no later than 5:00 p.m. prevailing
Central Time on the date that is two business days prior to the Bid
Procedures Hearing.
The Debtors request authority, as set forth in the Bid Procedures
and the Bid Procedures Order, to select one or more stalking horse
bidders and enter into Stalking Horse Agreements subject to further
Court approval, including Stalking Horse Agreements covering a
subset of the Assets, with such Stalking Horse Bidders.
Given the number of Debtors and their varied assets, having the
flexibility to designate one or more Stalking Horse Bidders is a
reasonable and sound exercise of the Debtors' business judgment
that provides an actual benefit to the Debtors' estate.
Debtors submit that the Bid Procedures for the First Tranche of
Assets and the Second Tranche of Assets provide an appropriate
framework for obtaining offers for the purchase of the Assets and
will enable the CRO and Root Realty to review, analyze and compare
all Bids received to determine which Bid (or Bids) is in the best
interests of Debtors' estate and their creditors.

DOOR COUNTY: Updates Unsecured Claims Pay; Files Amended Plan
-------------------------------------------------------------
Nacelle Logistics, LLC and Nacelle Biogas Equipment Funding 2019,
LLC (collectively "Nacelle"), creditors of Door County
Environmental Energy LLC, submitted a Third Combined Alternative
Plan of Reorganization and Disclosure Statement for the Debtor
dated December 1, 2025.
Under the Nacelle Plan, most creditors will receive distributions
on account of their respective allowed claims and interests,
including general unsecured creditors. Most general unsecured
creditors will receive dividends comprising 100% of their allowed
Claims.
By contrast, if neither the Nacelle Plan nor Debtor's Plan were
confirmed, and were the Debtor to be liquidated, it is likely that
the Debtor's senior secured creditors would receive all of the
available net proceeds for distribution, and no proceeds would be
available to make distributions to unsecured creditors or other
interest holders. Approval of either or both the Nacelle Plan and
the Debtor's Plan is likely a better outcome for creditors than
liquidation.
Under the Nacelle Plan, most creditors will receive some
distributions on account of their respective allowed claims and
interests, including general unsecured creditors. Most general
unsecured creditors will receive dividends comprising 100% of their
allowed Claims, but without interest.
By contrast, were the Debtor to be liquidated, it is likely that
the Debtor's senior secured creditors would receive all of the
available net proceeds for distribution, and no proceeds would be
available to make distributions to unsecured creditors or other
interest holders. Nacelle therefore recommends that all claimants
and interest holders vote to accept the Nacelle Plan.
DCEE represents that it plans to sell all of its 2025 credits in
January 2026 in order augment its expected substantial cash on hand
in order to fund payments required under the Debtor's Plan. Nacelle
doubts that the Debtor will be able to monetize these credits in
the amount sufficient to fund Debtor's proposed plan.
Class 3 consists of the general unsecured claims of Nacelle in the
amount of $1,914,974 ("Nacelle Claim") and Foxland, in the amount
of $542,321 ("Foxland Claim"). These Claims shall be paid as
follows: 25% of each claimant's then outstanding claim amount paid
upon the Effective Date of the Plan.
The balance of each claim to be paid if, and only if, the ARH SPE
Return Date is acheived, after which the balance of these claims
will be paid as follows: 20.6% of the available quarterly cash flow
(net operating expenses) will be paid on the Nacelle Claim, and
6.6% of the available quarterly cash flow (net operating expenses)
will be paid on the Foxland Claim, with the first payments being
made within 30 days of the end of the fiscal quarter that the ARH
SPE Return Date occurs.
ARH SPE will provide notice to Nacelle and Foxland of the ARH SPE
Return Date within 30 days of its occurrence and thereafter will
continue to make payments within 30 days of the end of each fiscal
quarter until 110% of the balance of the Nacelle and Foxland Claims
are paid. As modeled using the Stratas pricing curve (Nacelle Plan)
to forecast environmental attribute prices, this is projected to
occur within five years of the ARH SPE Return Date. The Debtor's
Plan proposes to pay those claims in full on the Effective Date,
with interest at 7%, and without condition.
Class 4 consists of trade debt of approximately $100,000 which
shall be paid in full with interest at 7% on the Effective Date of
the Plan.
Class 5 consists of Equity Interest Holders of the Debtor. All
existing equity interest holders of the Debtor shall receive zero
distribution and no new equity interests in the reorganized Debtor.
ARH SPE shall be awarded 100% new equity interest in the
reorganized debtor in exchange for its contribution of $3.25
million dollars in capital.
The Debtor maintains that an equity infusion of $3.25 million in
the absence of a valuation or competitive market process is
insufficient. The Debtor also maintains that the "promotion" of ARH
SPE's equity dividends over the payment in full of creditors and
current equity holders violates the absolute priority rule. Under
the Debtor's Plan, because all creditors are proposed to be paid in
full with interest, the Debtor's equity holders are proposed to
retain their equity interests in the Reorganized Debtor.
To effectuate the proposed Nacelle Plan, the Digester shall
continue operating. ARH SPE will utilize profits, revenues, and
income from its operations, and cash on hand on the Effective Date
to fund the proposed Nacelle Plan. In addition, ARH SPE will inject
$3.25 million, which will be used to make payments to creditors at
confirmation, keep the business solvent, and fund business
operations and potential investments, ultimately aiming to improve
the debtor's financial stability and its ability to repay its
creditors.

Disclosure Statement dated December 1, 2025 is available at

DXP ENTERPRISES: S&P Rates New $848MM First-Lien Term Loan 'B'
--------------------------------------------------------------
S&P Global Ratings assigned its 'B' issue-level rating and '3'
recovery rating to DXP Enterprises Inc.'s proposed $848 million
first-lien term loan due October 2030. The '3' recovery rating
indicates its expectation for meaningful (50%-70%; rounded
estimate: 55%) recovery in the event of a default. Under the
proposed transaction, the company is refinancing its existing $643
million first-lien term loan in tandem with a $205 million fungible
add-on to fund its pipeline of committed and planned acquisitions.
DXP's committed acquisitions reflect its continued strategic focus
on expanding its exposure to water and wastewater markets, which
S&P views as generally more stable than its cyclical energy and
industrial end markets.
The transaction is largely leverage neutral because the incremental
debt will be offset by the EBITDA contributions from the company's
acquisitions. S&P said, "As a result, we forecast its S&P Global
Ratings-adjusted debt to EBITDA will remain in the mid-3x area over
the next 12 months. Although the debt issuance will modestly
increase DXP's interest expense, we expect it will generate good
S&P Global Ratings-adjusted free operating cash flow of more than
$100 million annually."
Issue Ratings--Recovery Analysis
Key analytical factors
-- S&P rates the company's senior secured term loan 'B' with a '3'
recovery rating, indicating its expectation for meaningful
(50%-70%; rounded estimate: 55%) recovery in the event of a payment
default.
-- S&P's simulated default scenario contemplates a default
occurring in 2028 due to a prolonged recession and weakness in the
energy and industrial end markets, which reduce the demand for the
company's products and services.
-- S&P said, "We believe the company's lenders will aim to
maximize its value and pursue a reorganization rather than a
liquidation in a default scenario. Therefore, we value DXP on a
going-concern basis and apply a 5x multiple to our projected
emergence EBITDA, which is consistent with the multiples we use for
its capital goods industry peers."
-- S&P assumes 60% of the $185 million ABL facility would be drawn
at default.
-- All debt amounts include six months of prepetition accrued
interest.
Simulated default assumptions
-- Year of default: 2028
-- EBITDA at emergence: $128 million
-- Valuation EBITDA multiple: 5.0x
-- Jurisdiction: U.S.
Simplified waterfall
-- Net enterprise value (after 5% administrative costs): $607
million
-- Valuation split (obligors/nonobligors): 90%/10%
-- Priority claims (ABL): $113 million (not rated)
-- Remaining collateral value available for secured debt claims:
$473 million
-- Total unpledged value available for secured debt claims: $21
million
-- Estimated senior secured term loan claims: $862 million
--Recovery expectations: 50%-70% (rounded estimate: 55%)

DYNATRONICS CORP: Reports $201,857 Q1 Net Loss, Hits Tariff War
---------------------------------------------------------------
Dynatronics Corporation filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange
Commission its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q reporting a net loss
of $201,857 for the three months ended September 30, 2025, compared
to a net loss of $366,648 for the three months ended September 30,
2024.
Net sales for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024,
were $7,024,027 and $7,602,249, respectively.
As of September 30, 2025, the Company had $15,003,901 in total
assets, $11,943,554 in total liabilities, and $3,060,347 in total
stockholders' equity.
The Company incurred significant recurring operating losses,
primarily driven by continuous decline in revenues, recurring
negative cash flows and continued reduction in liquidity.
As of September 30, 2025, the Company had $761,748 in cash and cash
equivalents, compared to $326,344 as of June 30, 2025.
The decline from historical sales and subsequent decrease in
accounts receivable has limited the Company's ability to generate
cash from operations and limited the availability of capital from
the asset-based line of credit. Due to this, net working capital
has decreased from $718,110 as of June 30, 2025 to $592,564 as of
September 30, 2025.
The Company reported operating losses of approximately $88,000 and
$251,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024,
respectively.
The Company's declining revenues, recurring operating losses and
negative cash flows, and continued reduction in liquidity, raise
substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a
going concern within the next 12 months.
The Company is in the process of creating a comprehensive plan to
address these challenges to improve performance, including cost
reduction initiatives, streamlining operational processes, pursuing
new revenue streams through product diversification, and
transitioning production of the majority of the Company's
therapeutic modalities from a contract manufacturer to internal
operations.
This shift to in-house production aims to reduce costs by
eliminating third-party markups, enhance quality control with
direct oversight of manufacturing processes, and improve supply
chain reliability to mitigate risks of disruptions.
The Company is also evaluating the current inventory position and
working to reduce the amount of excess inventory exposure by
promoting discounted prices to convert the excess inventory to
cash. The Company will continue to look to add to its sales efforts
to further improve revenue, consider additional options to improve
operating efficiency, and enhance liquidity.
The Company believes that if it successfully implements the
foregoing strategic actions, it has a chance to mitigate the
factors giving rise to substantial doubt; however, there is no
guarantee that it will successfully implement these strategic
actions. As a result, substantial doubt remains regarding the
Company's ability to continue as a going concern.
In addition to the foregoing, recent tariff changes imposed by the
U.S. and China have created increased risks and uncertainties
surrounding the Company's future results of operations. The impact
of tariffs in the first quarter of 2025 was not material. However,
should universal tariffs be implemented as initially announced in
April 2025, the Company anticipates a significant adverse impact on
its future costs of revenue, which will impact its results of
operations.
Particularly, the U.S. import tariffs and the reciprocal measures
by China, are expected to increase the Company's cost of goods
sold. The Company anticipates that some of its suppliers will incur
incremental tariff-related costs, which may be passed on to the
Company. The extent and duration of the tariffs and the resulting
impact on general economic conditions and on the business are
uncertain and are expected to be impacted by various factors, such
as negotiations between the U.S. and affected countries, the
responses of other countries or regions, exemptions or exclusions
that already exist or may be granted, availability and cost of
alternative sources of the products and materials, and the
Company's ability to offset the effects of any tariffs that might
be imposed.
In response to these risks and uncertainties, the Company has taken
affirmative steps to stock adequate inventory of certain key
products and components to service immediate orders and is
proactively working with its suppliers to mitigate potential
tariff-related costs.
Moreover, the continuing effects of uncertainties in the broader
economic environment on the global supply chain, higher personnel
costs, and changes to customer or product mix, could have an
adverse effect on the Company's liquidity and cash, and it
continues to evaluate and take action, as necessary, to preserve
adequate liquidity and ensure that the business can continue to
operate during these uncertain times.
Additionally, the Company operates in a rapidly evolving and
unpredictable business environment that may change the timing or
amount of expected future cash receipts and expenditures.
Accordingly, there can be no assurance that the Company will not be
required to raise additional funds through the sale of assets,
equity or debt securities or from credit facilities. Additional
capital, if needed, may not be available on satisfactory terms, or
at all.

E. GLUCK: To Sell Watch Business to for $30MM
---------------------------------------------
E. Gluck Corporation seeks permission from the U.S. Bankruptcy
Court for the Southern District of New York to sell Assets, free
and clear of liens, claims, interests, and encumbrances.
The Debtor has received an offer from E. Gluck Global LLC to
purchase the Assets. The proposed sale under the Offer shall be
subject to higher and better offers that may be made at the Auction
to be scheduled prior to the Sale Hearing, provided that a
Qualified Bid is received pursuant to the Bidding Procedures.
The purchase price for the Acquired Assets is (a) assumption at
Closing of the Assumed Liabilities (which amount includes Cure
Costs) plus (b) the IDB Payoff Amount. The Estimated Purchase Price
is $30 million.
The Debtor requests that the Court approve a Break-Up Fee/Expense
Reimbursement and establish Bidding
Procedures for the conduct of the Auction. The proposed sale is the
result of substantial, good faith, arms’ length negotiation and
provides a vehicle for the Debtor to maximize asset values through
an auction sale process.
E. Gluck has been in the watch business for more than six decades,
operating as a designer, importer and distributor of certain
proprietary and licensed brands. Its proprietary anchor is
Armitron, a longstanding name in the U.S. watch market,
complemented by licensed fashion brands such as Anne Klein, Nine
West, and others. At its peak, the company generated hundreds of
millions of dollars in revenue by supplying a wide spectrum of U.S.
retail partners, including mass merchants, department stores,
mid-tier chains, off-price retailers and club stores. Beyond the
domestic market, E. Gluck also built international distribution
through third-party distributors and maintained a meaningful
presence in travel retail, including duty-free and cruise channels.
E. Gluck's business model rested on a durable combination of
long-term brand licenses, strong proprietary positioning, a broad
and healthy SKU variety, high-quality products and deep retail
relationships, all supported by an in-house team capable of
delivering design, production and distribution at scale. For many
years, this mix created a stable and profitable foundation.
The cumulative effect is a company burdened by fixed costs and new
obligations from the WITHit acquisition that are not offset by the
anticipated increases in revenue, all while E. Gluck's core revenue
and profitability have come under sustained pressure from
macroeconomic shocks and longterm shifts in the consumer
marketplace.
In the Debtor's business judgment, Buyer has made the highest and
best offer, to date, to acquire certain of the Debtor's assets and
business on a going concern basis. Buyer is an industry leader in
the licensed apparel and consumer goods business and offers
reasonable assurance of future performance to the Debtor’s
licensors.
The Debtor believes that the Offer is fair and reasonable -
although it intends to submit the Offer to the rigors of the
marketplace. The Offer has been memorialized in the Sale Agreement
for which the Debtor now seeks approval.
The Debtor, through its chief restructuring officer, Cometrics
Partners, LLC, and its managing principal, Gary Herwitz and East
Wind Securities, LLC999 has updated its financial and operational
materials and intends to solicit offers for the Assets from parties
previously solicited as well as other parties that the CRO and
Investment Banker believe may have an interest in acquiring the
Assets.
The Debtor submits that - with the Offer from the Buyer and the
Debtor's ability to transfer the Assets, free and clear of liens,
claims and encumbrances, pursuant to an Order of the Bankruptcy
Court -- there is a potential for a competitive bidding process for
the Assets.
The Sale Agreement is a comprehensive, purchase and sale agreement
setting forth all the rights and obligations contemplated
thereunder by and between the Debtor and the Buyer. The Sale
Agreement provides a vehicle for the disposition of certain of the
Debtor’s operating assets and, at the same time, enables the
Debtor to canvass the marketplace for any higher and better offers
for the Assets.
To effectuate the assumption/assignment process, the Debtor
proposes to serve the non-debtor parties to the Assigned Contracts
and Leases to the Bidding Procedures Order advising each of them of
the Debtor's interest to assume and assign such executory contract.
Under the terms of the Sale Agreement, the Buyer is responsible for
paying cure costs, if any, under any Assigned Contracts and Leases
that are ultimately assumed and assigned to Buyer.
In an effort to provide the most up-to-date information to
non-debtor parties to the Assigned Contracts and Leases, in the
event the Buyer is not the Successful Bidder at the Auction, the
Debtor will use its reasonable best efforts to provide nondebtor
parties to the Assigned Contracts and Leases with the identity of
the Successful Bidder prior to the Sale Hearing. Otherwise, the
non-debtor parties to the Assigned Contracts and Leases may wish to
plan to attend the Sale Hearing.

ENDURANCE INTERNATIONAL: Palmer Square Marks $4M 1L Loan at 47% Off
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Palmer Square Capital BDC Inc. has marked its $4,555,342 loan
extended to The Endurance International Group, Inc. to market at
$2,399,527 or 53% of the outstanding amount, according to Palmer
Square's Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended September 30,
2025, filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.
Palmer Square is a participant in a First Lien Senior Secured Loan
to The Endurance International Group, Inc. The loan accrues
interest at a rate of 7.84% (S +CSA + 3.50%) per annum. The loan

ENERFLEX INC: S&P Rates New $400MM Senior Unsecured Notes 'BB'
--------------------------------------------------------------
S&P Global Ratings assigned its 'BB' issue-level rating and '3'
recovery rating to Enerflex Inc.'s proposed $400 million senior
unsecured notes due 2031, which reflects its expectations for
meaningful recovery in the event of a default. Enerflex intends to
use the proceeds from this issuance, along with availability under
its revolving credit facility, to fund the repayment of its $562.5
million senior secured notes due 2027. The proposed notes will be
guaranteed by Enerflex Ltd.
All of S&P's existing ratings on Enerflex are unchanged.
ISSUE RATINGS--RECOVERY ANALYSIS
Key analytical factors:
-- S&P Global Ratings' simulated default scenario for Enerflex
contemplates a default from a prolonged period of poor commodity
prices, resulting in reduced revenue as customers are unable to
meet their contractual agreements and existing contracts are not
renewed.
-- S&P's analysis assumes the company's $800 million revolving
credit facility is 85% drawn at the time of default.
-- To value the company, S&P applied a 7x multiple to post-default
EBITDA, which is within its expectations of distressed multiples
for midstream companies.
Simulated default assumptions:
-- Simulated year of default: 2030
-- EBITDA at emergence: $157 million
-- EBITDA multiple: 7x Simplified waterfall
Simplified Waterfall:
-- Net enterprise value (after 5% administrative costs): $1.04
billion
-- Secured first-lien debt claims: $617.4 million
-- Total value available to unsecured claims: $424.7 million
-- Senior unsecured debt: $414 million
-- Recovery expectations for senior unsecured debt: 50%-70%
(rounded estimate: 65%); capped at '3' recovery rating.
Although recovery prospects reflect greater than 70% recovery for
unsecured notes, the recovery rating is capped at '3' for 'BB'
category entities. As such, the recovery expectations are also
capped, rounded to 65%.
ENI DIST: Seeks to Extend Plan Exclusivity to May 5, 2026
---------------------------------------------------------
ENI DIST, Inc. asked the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District of
Maryland to extend its exclusivity periods to file a plan of
reorganization and obtain acceptance thereof to May 5, 2026 and
July 4, 2026, respectively.
The Debtor has proceeded in good faith, attended the Section 341
meeting, and cooperated with the U.S. Trustee. The Debtor has
resolved the stay-relief motions filed by Arba, one of the
creditors, through contested hearing and orders rendered by this
Honorable Court. The Debtor has initiated an avoidance action to
recover prepetition transfers totaling $73,445.10 and is seeking
declaratory relief establishing the unsecured status of the UCC
loan held by Austin Business Finance, LLC dba Backd. These combined
efforts reflect diligence, transparency, and a genuine intent to
reorganize.
The Debtor explains that it is preparing to initiate targeted
discussions with its creditors, to continue reconciling filed
claims, and to develop and vet updated 13-week cash-flow and plan
feasibility projections necessary for a confirmable Chapter 11
plan. A brief extension will allow these efforts to mature into
concrete agreements rather than forcing a premature, piecemeal
plan.
The Debtor claims that a 90-day extension, rather than a shorter
60-day period that would push critical milestones into the year end
holiday lull, is warranted to coordinate stakeholder schedules,
complete diligence on collateral and cure amounts, negotiate and
document adequate-protection and plan treatment terms, and prepare
a single, coherent disclosure statement and plan. Granting this
relief will conserve estate resources and facilitate an orderly,
good-faith reorganization without prejudicing creditors.
The Debtor asserts that it has made significant progress toward
reorganization, including resolution of multiple stay-relief
motions, completion of required filings, and initiation of recovery
actions to increase estate liquidity. Nevertheless, additional time
is needed to incorporate the anticipated results of forthcoming
creditor negotiations and updated financial projections into a
confirmable plan.

The U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Eastern District of Missouri,

FTX TRADING: Three Arrows Raises Value of Bankruptcy Claim
----------------------------------------------------------
Alex Wittenberg of Law360 reports that theiquidators for the
collapsed crypto hedge fund Three Arrows Capital pushed back
against FTX's characterization of their $1.53 billion claim as
"baseless," arguing the figure reflects assets improperly pulled
from the exchange shortly before its downfall.
In a filing with the Delaware bankruptcy court, the liquidators
said the transfers constituted a "classic preference," warranting
recovery under bankruptcy law.
About FTX Trading Ltd.
FTX is the world's second-largest cryptocurrency firm. FTX is a
cryptocurrency exchange built by traders, for traders. FTX offers
innovative products including industry-first derivatives, options,
volatility products and leveraged tokens.
Then CEO and co-founder Sam Bankman-Fried said Nov. 10, 2022, that
FTX paused customer withdrawals after it was hit with roughly $5
billion worth of withdrawal requests.
Faced with liquidity issues, FTX on Nov. 9 struck a deal to sell
itself to its giant rival Binance, but Binance walked away from the
deal amid reports on FTX regarding mishandled customer funds and
alleged US agency investigations.
At 4:30 a.m. on Nov. 11, Bankman-Fried ultimately agreed to step
aside, and restructuring vet John J. Ray III was quickly named new
CEO.
FTX Trading Ltd (d/b/a FTX.com), West Realm Shires Services Inc.
(d/b/a FTX US), Alameda Research Ltd. and certain affiliated
companies then commenced Chapter 11 proceedings (Bankr. D. Del.
Lead Case No. 22-11068) on an emergency basis on Nov. 11, 2022.
Additional entities sought Chapter 11 protection on Nov. 14, 2022.
FTX Trading and its affiliates each listed $10 billion to $50
million in assets and liabilities, making FTX the biggest
bankruptcy filer in the US this year. According to Reuters, SBF
shared a document with investors on Nov. 10 showing FTX had $13.86
billion in liabilities and $14.6 billion in assets. However, only
$900 million of those assets were liquid, leading to the cash
crunch that ended with the company filing for bankruptcy.
The Hon. John T. Dorsey is the case judge.
The Debtors tapped Sullivan & Cromwell, LLP as bankruptcy counsel;
Landis Rath & Cobb, LLP as local counsel; and Alvarez & Marsal
North America, LLC as financial advisor. Kroll is the claims agent,

The official committee of unsecured creditors tapped Paul Hastings
as bankruptcy counsel; Young Conaway Stargatt & Taylor, LLP as
Delaware and conflicts counsel; FTI Consulting, Inc. as financial
advisor; and Jefferies, LLC as investment banker.
Montgomery McCracken Walker & Rhoads LLP, led by partners Gregory
T. Donilon, Edward L. Schnitzer, and David M. Banker, is
representing Sam Bankman-Fried in the Chapter 11 cases. White
collar crime specialist Mark S. Cohen has reportedly been hired to

GASFUSION TEXAS: Unsecured Creditors to Get $225K in Plan
---------------------------------------------------------
Gasfusion Texas LLC filed with the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the
Southern District of Texas a Combined Plan and Disclosure Statement
dated December 1, 2025.
The Debtor owns a single parcel of land that improvements commonly
identified as a gas station and convenient store. The gas station
and convenient store are leased to Gasfusion, Inc.
The previous owner of 401 River is Gasfusion, Inc., Gasfusion, Inc.
deeded the property to Gasfusion Texas, LLC subject to the deed of
trust held by the Creditor's Trustee shortly before commencing this
bankruptcy because Gasfusion, Inc. has other properties and
separate creditors who were not in default.
The Debtor commenced this bankruptcy proceeding because of the
pending foreclosure sale and the Debtor's belief that the lien can
be refinanced. Pre-petition, the previous owner had significant
non-recurring expenses and operating problems resulting in a
reduction of revenue. Gasfusion, Inc. is now recovering from its
operating problems and paying rent payments to Gasfusion Texas,
LLC.
The Debtor will refinance (or sell) the property on or before May
1st, 2026, paying all allowed secured creditors from the proceeds
of the refinance (or sale) on all amounts then outstanding in full.
The Debtor agrees that if it is unable to sell or refinance by May
1st, 2026, it will not commence a subsequent bankruptcy proceeding.
Creditors in Class 1, if not paid in full by May 1st, 2026 may
notice a June 2026 foreclosure sale. Secured Creditors in Class 1
may conduct the June 2026 foreclosure sale if it is not paid in
full by June 30, 2026. Creditors in Class 1 upon Material Default
under this Plan by the Debtor may foreclose sooner than May 1st of
2026.
At all times during this Plan the requisite insurance required
under the secured creditor's loan documents with the Debtor must be
maintained. The Debtor asserts that creditors in Class 1 are
undersecured creditors, in that the pre-petition value of 401 River
is approximately $1,200,000.00. Creditors in Class 1 may not
repossess or dispose of their collateral or otherwise proceed
against the Debtor, its collateral and any guarantors, so long as
Debtor is not in Material Default under the Plan. Class 1 Allowed
Secured claims are impaired and are entitled to vote on
confirmation of the Plan.
Class 2 consists of Allowed General Unsecured Claims.
* JWJ Land Partners, LTD with an unsecured claim of
$369,655.53. This Class will receive a distribution of $225,000.00
of their allowed claims.
* Wheeler's Mercantile, Inc. with an unsecured claim of
$369,655.53. This Class will receive a distribution of $225,000.00
of their allowed claims.
Allowed claims of general unsecured creditors (including allowed
claims of creditors whose executory contracts or unexpired leases
are being rejected under this Plan) shall be paid in full according
to terms. Creditors in this class may not take any collection
action against Debtor so long as Debtor is not in Material Default
under the Plan. This class is impaired and is entitled to vote on
confirmation of the Plan. Debtor has indicated below whether a
particular claim is disputed.
If Certain purported creditors are scheduled by the Debtor as
Disputed General Unsecured Claims, as such purported claims are
contingent, disputed and/or unliquidated. If, or once a Disputed
General Unsecured Claim becomes an Allowed General Unsecured Claim,
it shall no longer be a Disputed General Unsecured Claim and shall
be treated in accordance with Class 2 General Unsecured Claims.
Harikarthick Ilangovijayan is the sole member of the of Gasfusion
Texas LLC, a Wyoming limited liability company. Harikarthick
Ilangovijayan, shall retain its interest in the Debtor; however, no
distributions shall be made until all Allowed Claims have been paid
in full. Harikarthick Ilangovijayan shall continue to manage and
serve the Debtor without salary until all Plan payments have been
made.
On the Effective Date, all property of the estate and interests of
the Debtor, that is property of the estate as of the date of Plan
confirmation, will vest in the reorganized Debtor pursuant to
Section 1141(b) of the Bankruptcy Code free and clear of all lien,
claims, interests and encumbrances except as otherwise provided in
this Plan.
The obligations to creditors that Debtor undertakes in the
confirmed Plan replace those obligations to creditors that existed
prior to the Effective Date of the Plan. Debtor's obligations under
the confirmed Plan constitute binding contractual promises that, if
not satisfied through performance of the Plan, create a basis for
an action for breach of contract under Texas law. To the extent a
creditor retains a lien under the Plan, that creditor retains all
rights provided by such lien under applicable non-Bankruptcy law.

dated December 1, 2025 is available at

and operational pressures. The sale is intended to stabilize the
company's finances while enabling a transition to new ownership,

notified by the Staff on May 23, 2025 and August 22, 2025. The
basis for the Staff Determination Letter is that the Company has
not yet filed its Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the periods
ended March 31, 2025, June 30, 2025 and September 30, 2025, with
the Securities and Exchange Commission.
The Company filed its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period
ended March 31, 2025 on November 19, 2025 and is actively working
towards the filing of the Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the
periods ended June 30, 2025 and September 30, 2025 to ensure full
compliance with the Filing Rule.
The Staff Determination Letter noted that, after the Staff's review
of the materials submitted by the Company on September 5, 2025, it
granted the Company an exception until November 17, 2025 to regain
compliance with the Filing Rule.
It further stated that since the Company failed to file the its
Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the periods ended March 31, 2025
and June 30, 2025 by the Exception Deadline Date and failed to file
its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended September
30, 2025 by its due date, the trading of the Company's securities
will be suspended from the Nasdaq at the opening of business on
November 28, 2025 unless the Company requests an appeal of this
determination by November 25, 2025. The Staff Determination Letter
has no immediate effect and will not immediately result in the
suspension of trading or delisting of the Company's securities.
The Staff Determination Letter notified the Company that it may
appeal the Staff's determination by requesting a hearing before a
Nasdaq Hearings Panel, pursuant to the procedures set forth in the
Nasdaq Listing Rule 5800 Series. A request for a hearing regarding
one or more delinquent filings will automatically stay the
suspension of the Company's securities for a period of at least 15
calendar days from the date of the hearing request.
By Nasdaq rule, when a company requests a hearing for one or more
late SEC periodic public filings, it may also request an extension
of the stay pending the hearing date and subsequently during any
additional extension period granted by a Hearings Panel following
the hearing. Hearings are typically scheduled to occur
approximately 30-45 days after the date of the hearing request.
The Company intends to timely submit a request for a hearing
including a stay of the suspension of the Company's securities
pending the hearing and the Hearings Panel's decision. There can be
no assurance that the Hearings Panel will grant any of the
Company's requests for additional time.

HALL LABS: To Sell Common Stock to Michael Hall for $100K
---------------------------------------------------------
Mark C. Rose, Chapter 11 trustee of Hall Labs, LLC, seeks
permission from the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District of Utah
to sell Property, free and clear of liens, claims, interests, and
encumbrances.
The Debtor wants to sell interest in 421,118 shares of common stock
in Nernst Electric, Inc. to Michael Hall for $100,000, free and
clear of all liens, interests, claims, and encumbrances.
The Debtor scheduled a 56.1% interest in Nernst Electric.
After being appointed as trustee of Debtor, Trustee reached out to
Nernst Electrics chief executive officer, Nicholas Farandos, to
learn more about Debtor's interest in Nernst Electric.
Nernst Electric is a start-up company that was founded in 2023. It
focuses on developing a new manufacturing method for solid oxide
fuel cells.
Nernst Electric is still a way away from generating revenue, and it
will take more than $1,000,000 to get Nernst Electric to the point
where it can start to generate revenue. It also needs external
investment, does not have a marketing plan, does not have any
products for sale, and has pending and provisional patents.
Nernst Electric’s cap table is as follows:
i. Hall Labs, LLC – 421,118 shares of common stock
ii. Nicholas Farandos – 150,000 shares of common stock
iii. Christopher Matson – 120,000 shares of common stock
iv. Scott Woolston – 60,000 shares of common stock
The only party to buy shares of Nernst Electric was Hall Labs, and
it purchased 370,000 shares at $4.05 per share on a continuous
basis (as money came in, original price set) between October 2023
and February 2025, and the rest at $6.08 per share on February 20,
2025.
Nernst Electric's cash on hand, as of September 2025, was
approximately $90,000 and its monthly burn rate is approximately
$50,000. The company's total debt is approximately $200,000 and its
corporate directors are Mr. Farandos, Mr. Michael Hall, and Jeff
Duncan.
Nernst Electric has one consultant, Pawel Plonczak, who is based in
the United States of America. Mr. Plonczak is paid $2,000 a month
on an at-will basis and with the agreement that he assign all
intellectual property and inventions related to the company to
Nernst
Electric.
The Debtor owns at least 421,118 shares of common stock in Nernst
Electric, which Trustee represents (based on the cap table provided
to Trustee on September 22, 2025 by Mr. Farandos) constitutes
56.065% of the issued and outstanding shares of Nernst Electric.
The Trustee received an offer from Mr. Farandos to purchase the
Shares for $60,000.
The Trustee received a competing bid from Mr. Hall to purchase the
Shares for $100,000.
The Debtor has agreed to sell to Mr. Hall, and Mr. Hall has agreed
to purchase from Debtor, the Shares for $100,000 upon the terms and
subject to the conditions set forth in the Asset Purchase
Agreement.
The Trustee is aware of the following alleged, asserted, or filed
liens on the Shares:
a. Keystone Private Income Fund
b. U.S. Small Business Administration
c. LEAF Capital Funding, LLC
d. CHTD Company
The sale of the Shares to Mr. Hall will be free and clear of any
and all liens, interests, claims, and encumbrances, with any such
liens, interests, claims, and encumbrances.
There will not be any settlement charges or fees paid from the
Purchase Price at the time of closing of the sale of the Shares.
The sale of the Shares to Mr. Hall is subject to higher and better
offers.
The initial overbid must be at least $15,000 higher than the
Purchase Price.
Any subsequent overbid must be in an increment of at least $10,000.
Prior to entering into the APA, Trustee received an offer from Mr.
Farandos to purchase the Shares for $60,000.
Prior to entered into the APA, the Trustee engaged in discussions
with Gary Jones regarding his interest in obtaining the Shares.
However, after looking at documents and information provided by
Nernst Electric, Mr. Jones did not have any further interest in
trying to purchase the Shares.
In Trustee’s business judgment, Mr. Hall's offer will be of
benefit to Debtor's bankruptcy estate because it will increase the
amount of funds available to satisfy the administrative costs of
Debtor's bankruptcy estate and provide a return to general
unsecured creditors.
Trustee believes the Purchase Price reflects the fair market value
for the Shares under the circumstances since Nernst Electric is a
start-up company that needs significant funding in order to
survive, does not have a marketing plan, and does have any products
for sale.

petition, the Debtor reported assets between $100 million and $500
million and liabilities between $50 million and $100 million.

HIGH LINER: S&P Affirms 'B+' ICR on Fungible Term Loan B Add-On
---------------------------------------------------------------
S&P Global Ratings affirmed its 'B+' issuer credit rating on Nova
Scotia-based value-added frozen seafood provider High Liner Foods
Inc.
S&P said, "At the same time, we affirmed our 'BB-' issue-level
rating on the company's term loan B. The '2' recovery rating is
unchanged, indicating our expectation for substantial (70%-90%;
rounded estimate: 70%) recovery in the event of hypothetical
default. The outlook remains stable.
"The stable outlook reflects our expectation that High Liner will
navigate the current challenging macroeconomic conditions, improve
its working capital position, and restore leverage to below 3.5x in
fiscal 2026."
The proposed transaction will be neutral to High Liner's leverage
profile. The company is proposing to issue a US$60 million fungible
add-on to its existing term loan B. It will use the proceeds from
this issuance to repay a portion of the borrowings under its
revolving credit facility, which was previously used to finance the
acquisition of the Mrs. Paul's and Van de Kamp's brands from
Conagra Brands Inc. The acquisition was completed in June 2025 for
about US$42 million, and we expect it will generate pro forma
incremental EBITDA of about US$6 million-US$7 million, including
synergies, by 2027. High Liner's pro forma capital structure will
comprise a US$200 million revolving credit facility (maturity
extended to 2030) and a US$300 million term loan B that includes
US$240 million of its existing term loan B and the proposed
add-on.
S&P believes current operational headwinds is transitory and expect
performance to improve in 2026. Persistent macroeconomic headwinds
and inflation continue to strain consumers; weak restaurant traffic
is hurting the food service segment as consumers pull back on
discretionary spending and shift toward more affordable
dine-at-home options. On the other hand, promotional activity
remains elevated in the retail channel as companies seek to
maintain sales and market share among value-conscious consumers.
High Liner is facing cost pressure from rising raw material prices
(particularly cod and haddock) and tariffs, compounded by delays in
passing through price increases within its retail distribution
channel.
Consequently, S&P Global Ratings-adjusted EBITDA declined about 13%
year over year in the third quarter of fiscal 2025 (ended Sept. 27,
2025). S&P anticipates these challenging conditions will continue
through the fourth quarter, leading to a 3.4% decline in adjusted
EBITDA and a 70-basis-point margin contraction as the company exits
2025.
S&P said, "Looking ahead, we expect High Liner can manage its
headwinds and resume EBITDA growth in 2026. We expect volumes to
level off in fiscal 2026 with support from the renewal of a supply
contract with the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA),
expansion into new distribution channels like convenience stores,
and product innovation (including the launch of fully cooked
seafoods). Additionally, we expect price increases to phase in more
progressively starting first-quarter 2026, following the holiday
blackout period in the fourth quarter. These price increases and
ongoing efficiency and productivity improvements, including
investments in automation, will alleviate some cost pressure and
stabilize High Liner's organic EBITDA in 2026.
"At the same time, we anticipate the recent acquisition of the Mrs.
Paul's and Van de Kamp's brands from Conagra Brands Inc. will drive
year-over-year EBITDA growth, supported by incremental margin
accretion and operational synergies primarily associated with
procurement- and logistics-related efficiency gain.
"Overall, we forecast the company's revenue and EBITDA to grow 3.3%
and 5.1%, respectively, in fiscal 2026.
"We expect an enhanced working capital position to support positive
FOCF generation and improve leverage in 2026. High Liner's balance
sheet debt as of end of the third quarter increased by about US$87
million in comparison to fiscal-year-end 2024, primarily to finance
acquisitions and opportunistic inventory purchases. The company
continues to build inventory in the fourth quarter ahead of its
seasonal peak during Lent, and we expect EBITDA to modestly decline
year over year. As such, we forecast the company to exit 2025 with
negative free operating cash flow (FOCF) and elevated leverage of
3.6x.
"With inventory clearing and expected efficient working capital
management, we forecast the company will resume positive FOCF
generation in 2026. This, alongside annual capex of US$20
million-US$30 million, supports our forecast of approximately US$40
million in free operating cash flow (FOCF) for fiscal 2026, with
leverage improving to around 3.4x. At the same time, we relaxed our
outlook downside threshold on High Liner by 0.5x to align with
similarly rated peers in the branded nondurable industry. The new
downside threshold is now 4.0x.
"We believe the company will remain opportunistic and consider
tuck-in acquisitions periodically. However, we expect High Liner to
prioritize deleveraging in the near term and maintain a prudent
approach to capital allocation."
High Liner's channel diversity will support resilience in a
challenging operating environment. The company benefits from a
diversified revenue base, with approximately two-thirds of sales
derived from food service and one-third from retail. Within food
service, about 40% of High Liner's revenue is generated by
noncommercial establishments, including schools, hospitals, and
long-term care facilities, which exhibit more stable demand
patterns. Additionally, about 10% of food service revenue is from
quick-service restaurants (QSR), which provides some resilience
against volume pressure as consumers prioritize value.
S&P said, "The stable outlook reflects our expectation that High
Liner will navigate the current challenging macroeconomic
conditions and return to EBITDA growth in 2026. We also expect High
Liner will adequately manage its working capital needs and return
to positive FOCF in 2026. As such, we anticipate the company will
improve its S&P Global Ratings-adjusted debt to EBITDA to below
3.5x as operating conditions gradually improve and cost savings are
realized. In our view, the company's balanced financial policy and
adequate liquidity provide some flexibility to accommodate demand
volatility and tariff uncertainty across its end segments."
S&P could downgrade High Liner in the next 12 months if its S&P
Global Ratings-adjusted debt to EBITDA weakens and remains above
4.0x with poor prospects for deleveraging. This could occur if:
-- High Liner faces higher-than-anticipated revenue and EBITDA
pressures from contracting demand; or
-- Management adopts a more aggressive financial policy that
involves debt-funded shareholder returns and acquisitions, which
further pressure its leverage.
S&P could upgrade High Liner over the next 12 months if:
-- The company continues to gain market share and diversify its
business such that S&P positively reassess its business risk
profile; and
-- It sustains S&P Global Ratings-adjusted debt to EBITDA below
2.5x. This could occur if it maintains its increase in EBITDA while
management adopts a prudent capital allocation strategy to sustain
its leverage.
HILTON DOMESTIC: S&P Rates Proposed Senior Unsecured Notes 'BB+'
----------------------------------------------------------------
S&P Global Ratings assigned its 'BB+' issue-level rating and '4'
recovery rating to the proposed senior unsecured notes issued by
Hilton Worldwide Holdings Inc.'s (BB+/Stable/--) borrowing
subsidiary Hilton Domestic Operating Co. Inc. The company is
targeting a single $1 billion tranche due 2034. Hilton intends to
use the proceeds from the notes and cash to repay its $500 million
5.75% senior unsecured notes maturing in 2028. The '4' recovery
rating indicates its expectation for average (30%-50%; rounded
estimate: 30%) recovery for lenders in the event of a default.
Hilton modestly revised its full-year 2025 systemwide comparable
revenue per available room (RevPAR) guidance down on its third
quarter earnings call. The company now forecasts this measure will
be flat to up 1% in 2025. Previously, the company projected a range
of flat to up 2% for the year. The downward shift in guidance
reflects pressure across business transient and group travel due to
holiday shifts within the year, portfolio renovations, and softer
international inbound demand.
S&P said, "We continue to assume Hilton's S&P Global
Ratings-adjusted net debt to EBITDA will be in the mid-3x area
through 2026. We also believe Hilton could maintain S&P Global
Ratings-adjusted net debt to EBITDA well below our 5x downgrade
threshold if it modestly underperforms our base-case forecast,
given its ability to reduce its share repurchases, if needed.
Hilton remains well-positioned with its sizeable and geographically
diverse lodging system, portfolio of brands that targets multiple
prices, and favorable brand recognition. Additionally, Hilton
benefits from high-margin franchise and management fees and strong
free cash flow conversion."
ISSUE RATINGS--RECOVERY ANALYSIS
Key analytical factors:
-- S&P assigned its 'BB+' issue-level rating and '4' recovery
rating to Hilton's proposed unsecured notes. The '4' recovery
rating indicates its expectation for average (30%-50%; rounded
estimate: 30%) recovery for noteholders in the event of a default.
This is in line with S&P's existing issue-level and recovery
ratings on Hilton's existing senior unsecured notes.
-- S&P rates the company's senior secured debt--which consists of
a $2 billion revolving credit facility due in 2028 and the $3.1
billion term loan B-4 due in 2030 'BBB-' with a '1' recovery
rating. The '1' recovery rating indicates its expectation for very
high (90%-100%; rounded estimate: 95%) recovery for lenders in the
event of a default.
-- The senior secured debt is collateralized by a perfected
security interest in substantially all domestic tangible and
intangible assets, and a 65% stock pledge from foreign
subsidiaries.
S&P said, "We cap our issue-level ratings for speculative-grade
issuers (other than the secured debt of regulated utilities and
real estate firms) at 'BBB-' regardless of our recovery rating.
This deemphasizes the weight recovery plays in notching up
issue-level ratings for issuers near the investment-grade threshold
because recovery is a smaller component of credit risk when default
risk is more remote, particularly considering recovery prospects
may be less predictable and more variable for these issuers.
"Our simulated default considers prolonged economic weakness and
significantly reduced transient and group travel volume, leading to
a default in 2030.
"We assume a reorganization following the default and use an
emergence EBITDA multiple of 7.5x to value the company. This
multiple--at the high end of our range for the leisure
sector--reflects the quality and scale of Hilton's portfolio of
brands.
We assume the revolving credit facility is 85% drawn at default
after excluding the unused portion of letters of credit."
Simulated default assumptions:
-- Year of default: 2030
-- Emergence EBITDA: $1.1 billion
-- Multiple: 7.5x
Simplified waterfall:
-- Net enterprise value after administrative expenses (5%): $7.8
billion
-- Obligor/nonobligor split: 70%/30%
-- Estimated senior secured debt claims: $4.7 billion
-- Value available for secured debt claims: $7.0 billion
--Recovery expectation: 90%-100% (rounded estimate: 95%)
-- Estimated senior unsecured debt claims: $9.2 billion
-- Value available for unsecured debt claims: $3.1 billion
--Recovery expectation: 30%-50% (rounded estimate: 30%)
Note: All debt amounts include six months of prepetition interest.

INDU MOTEL: Seeks to Extend Plan Exclusivity to February 26, 2026
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Indu Motel LLC asked the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Western
District of Pennsylvania to extend its exclusivity periods to file
a plan of reorganization and obtain acceptance thereof to February
26, 2026 and April 27, 2026, respectively.
The Debtor maintains that sufficient cause exists for an extension
of the filing deadlines and the Exclusivity Periods. The Debtor
received some interest in the purchase of estate property. The
Debtor is in the process of exploring this proposal but needs some
more time.
Moreover, the deadline to file claims has not passed. The deadline
for nongovernmental entities to file claims is December 8, 2025.
The deadline for governmental entities to file claims is January
25, 2026. Allowing the Exclusivity Periods to be extended beyond
the claims bar dates will allow the Debtor to better analyze the
claims against it.
The Debtor claims that its creditor will not be prejudiced by the
requested extensions. On the contrary, the Debtor's creditors will
be best served with an extension of the Exclusivity Periods and the
filing deadline.
The Debtor explains that it will continue to work in good faith
towards a resolution of all matters to provide for the best path
forward for the estate.

KCAP VILLA: Gets Interim OK to Use Cash Collateral
--------------------------------------------------
KCAP Villa Gardens LLC got the green light from the U.S. Bankruptcy
Court for the Northern District of Texas, Fort Worth Division, to
use cash collateral.
At the recent hearing, the court authorized the Debtor's interim
use of cash collateral and scheduled a final hearing for January 8,
2026.
The Debtor intends to use cash collateral to operate and maintain
its 142 unit-rental property consistent with its 13-week budget.
The budget includes all necessary operating expenses and the
November loan payment to Fannie Mae.
Fannie Mae appears to be the only secured lender with a recorded
lien, and the Debtor estimates the property's value at $18,165,582,
providing a substantial equity cushion for the lender.
The Debtor offers to provide Fannie Mae with adequate protection
through the equity cushion, and if necessary, replacement liens and
superpriority claims under 11 U.S.C. sections 361 and 507(b).
The Debtor's property has historically been well-occupied, with 114
of 142 units rented as of the petition date (approximately 80%
occupancy). The Debtor acquired the property in 2021, assuming a
$14,000,000 loan originally issued to a prior owner, which Fannie
Mae later acquired. The bankruptcy arose from an ongoing dispute
over alleged loan defaults, including disputed property repairs,
repair reserve requirements, and allegedly fabricated fees, which
the Debtor contends are excessive and unwarranted. Despite prior
agreements, Fannie Mae accelerated the loan and threatened
foreclosure and receivership, prompting the Debtor to seek
bankruptcy protection to safeguard the property's equity.
About KCAP Villa Gardens LLC
KCAP Villa Gardens LLC is a single-asset real estate company that
owns a multifamily apartment complex located at 2730 Fyke Road in
Dallas, Texas.
The Debtor sought protection under Chapter 11 of the U.S.
Bankruptcy Code (Bankr. N.D. Tex. Case No. 25-44520) on November
19, 2025. In the petition signed by Tie Lasater, chief executive
officer, the Debtor disclosed up to $50 million in both assets and
liabilities.
Judge Mark X Mullin oversees the case.
Jeff Carruth, Esq., at CONDON TOBIN SLADEK SPARKS NERENBERG, PLLC,
represents the Debtor as legal counsel.

LTI HOLDINGS: Moody's Puts 'B3' CFR on Review for Upgrade
---------------------------------------------------------
Moody's Ratings placed the ratings of LTI Holdings, Inc. (Boyd) on
review for upgrade, including the B3 corporate family rating, B3-PD
probability of default rating and B3 ratings on the senior secured
first-lien bank credit facilities. Previously, the outlook was
stable.
The review was prompted by the company's November 25, 2025
announcement that Boyd will use the proceeds from the sale of its
Thermal business to repay its existing indebtedness. The company
recently signed a definitive agreement to sell the Thermal business
to Eaton Corporation (Eaton, A3 stable) for $9.5 billion in cash.
The transaction is subject to customary closing conditions,
including the receipt of required regulatory approvals, and is
expected to close in the second quarter of 2026.
Moody's placed the ratings under review for upgrade because there
is a change of control provision in the credit agreement related to
the bank credit facilities. Accordingly, Moody's expect the debt to
be repaid in connection with the transaction.
In the review for upgrade Moody's will focus on the completion of
the transaction once all necessary approvals are obtained, and
whether Boyd's debt will be fully repaid at closing.
RATINGS RATIONALE / FACTORS THAT COULD LEAD TO AN UPGRADE OR
DOWNGRADE OF THE RATINGS
Excluding the review for upgrade, Boyd's B3 CFR reflects the
company's good product breadth in thermal management and
environmental sealing technologies, diverse end markets and strong
relationships with its customers. The company is a provider of
typically low cost but often critical products. Its geographically
diverse manufacturing footprint spans North America, Europe and
Asia and helps the company serve its global customers. Its margins
are solid because of the specialization and value-add of its
product offerings, which are often patented, customized or
proprietary. However, Boyd has a moderately high customer
concentration, which can lead to revenue volatility. The company
has high leverage and cash flow is constrained by high interest
expense. Boyd also has an aggressive financial policy with a
propensity to make debt funded acquisitions.
Factors that could lead to an upgrade or downgrade of the ratings
will be updated once the review is completed. Prior to the review,
the ratings could be upgraded if Boyd generates healthy topline
growth with no erosion in margins and debt-to-EBITDA is sustained
below 6x. Moody's would also expect the company to have positive
free cash flow prior to a rating upgrade.
Prior to the review, the ratings could be downgraded if
debt-to-EBITDA is sustained above 7x. In addition, the ratings
could be downgraded if contracts from major customers erode or if
the company engages in a large debt funded acquisition that
increases leverage. Also, if the company experiences a
deterioration in liquidity the ratings could be downgraded.
The principal methodology used in these ratings was Manufacturing
published in September 2025.
The net effect of any adjustments applied to rating factor scores
or scorecard outputs under the primary methodology(ies), if any,
was not material to the ratings addressed in this announcement.
LTI Holdings, Inc. (Boyd) is a Florida-based manufacturer of
customized, precision products that provide thermal management (to
prevent overheating) and environmental sealing (to protect from
heat, moisture or radio-frequency). These solutions are sold to
customers serving a broad array of end markets including
industrial, mobile electronics, medical and aerospace and defense.
The company is owned by funds affiliated with Goldman Sachs
Merchant Banking. Revenue for the twelve months ended September 30,

LUMINAR TECHNOLOGIES: Inks Fourth Forbearance Deal with Noteholders
-------------------------------------------------------------------
As reported on Current Reports on Form 8-K filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission on October 31, November 7, and
November 13, 2025, Luminar Technologies, Inc. entered into:
(i) forbearance agreements, effective as of October 30, 2025,
with an ad hoc group of holders of the Company's Floating Rate
Senior Secured Notes due 2028 and 9.0% Convertible Second Lien
Senior Secured Notes due 2030 and 11.5% Convertible Second Lien
Senior Secured Notes due 2030, as applicable, beneficially owning,
collectively, approximately 94.5% of the 1L Notes and approximately
89% of the 2L Notes;
(ii) forbearance agreements, effective as of November 6, 2025,
with an ad hoc group of holders of the 1L Notes and 2L Notes, as
applicable, beneficially owning, collectively, approximately 91.3%
of the 1L Notes and approximately 85.8% of the 2L Notes; and
(iii) forbearance agreements, effective as of November 12, 2025
(the "Third Forbearance Agreements" and, together with the First
Forbearance Agreements and Second Forbearance Agreements, the
"Initial Forbearance Agreements"), with the Extending Noteholders.
Subject to the terms and conditions of the Initial Forbearance
Agreements and as described in the Prior Form 8-Ks, as a result of
any Events of Default arising from the Company's failure to make
the October 15 Interest Payments, the Initial Forbearing
Noteholders agreed to forbear from exercising any of their rights
and remedies under the applicable indentures governing the 1L Notes
and 2L Notes and applicable law through November 6, 2025 and the
Extending Noteholders agreed to forbear from exercising any of
their rights and remedies under the applicable indentures governing
the 1L Notes and 2L Notes and applicable law through November 12,
2025 and thereafter November 24, 2025.
The Company disclosed that on November 15, 2025, it elected not to
make the quarterly interest payments due on such date in respect of
its 1L Notes. Under the terms of the indenture governing the 1L
Notes, the failure to make the November 15 Interest Payments on the
due date did not constitute an event of default under the 1L
Indenture; however, the non-payment would become an event of
default if the Company fails to make the November 15 Interest
Payments within the permitted 15-day grace period.
On November 24, 2025, the Extending Noteholders agreed to extend
the Third Forbearance Period through November 25.
On November 25, the Company and the Extending Noteholders entered
into new forbearance agreements in connection with which the
Extending Noteholders agreed to forbear from exercising rights and
remedies with respect to the failure to make the November 15
Interest Payments and otherwise extend the Third Forbearance Period
with respect to the 1L Notes and 2L Notes to December 2, 2025, with
the ability to extend further through December 7, 2025 in exchange
for the Company's agreement to an ongoing liquidity covenant and to
generally engage in good faith on a holistic transaction.
In connection with the Fourth Forbearance Agreements, the Company
also appointed Robin Chu, Managing Director of Portage Point
Partners, LLC, as Chief Restructuring Officer. All other material
terms of the Initial Forbearance Agreements remain unchanged.

MEDICAL DEPOT: Moody's Lowers PDR to 'D-PD'
-------------------------------------------
Moody's Ratings downgraded Medical Depot Holdings, Inc.'s (d/b/a
Drive DeVilbiss Healthcare "Drive" or "Medical Depot") Probability
of Default Rating to D-PD from Caa2-PD. At the same time, Moody's
affirmed the Corporate Family Rating at Caa2. No action was taken
on either the Caa2 ratings on the company's first lien credit
facilities or the B2 rating on the company's super senior secured
term loan. The outlook is stable.
These actions follow the announcement that Kingswood Capital
Management, LP (together with its affiliates, "Kingswood") signed a
definitive agreement to acquire Drive from CD&R. Moody's have
become aware that Drive's debt was recently repaid and the
company's debt holders incurred losses. Moody's view the incurrence
of those losses as a distressed exchange default.
Subsequent to the rating action, Moody's will withdraw all the
ratings of Drive.
Governance risk considerations are material to the rating action.
Governance risk factors related to financial strategy, risk
management, credibility and track record are elevated because the
company operates with aggressive financial policies. This is
reflected in Drive's weak liquidity and very high debt levels,
resulting in an untenable capital structure, which resulted in the
distressed exchange.
The stable outlook reflects Moody's view that the current ratings
adequately reflect Drive's recovery prospects.
A comprehensive review of all credit ratings for the respective
issuer(s) has been conducted during a rating committee.
RATINGS RATIONALE
Drive's ratings are constrained by untenable capital structure,
along with weak liquidity reflected in very high financial
leverage.
Based in Port Washington, New York, Medical Depot (d/b/a Drive
DeVilbiss Healthcare) is a global manufacturer of durable and home
medical equipment. The company manufactures and distributes
mobility products (wheelchairs, canes, walkers and rollators),

MISS AMERICA: Florida Court Urged to Dismiss Sanctions Bid
----------------------------------------------------------
Madison Arnold of Law360 reports that the plaintiffs in the Florida
federal dispute over ownership of the Miss America pageant urged
the court to reject a sanctions request aimed at their attorneys,
arguing the motion is "wholly meritless." They contend the bid is
an improper attempt to distract from the core issues in the case.
According to the plaintiffs, nothing in the record supports
sanctions, and the allegations against their counsel misstate both
the facts and procedural history. They asked the court to deny the
request in full so the case can proceed on its merits.
About Miss America Competition LLC

rebellion during a time when women weren't permitted to wear
swimsuits in public. In 1945, the organization started awarding
scholarships to the winner instead of prize money, making Miss
America one of the first organizations in the United States to
offer college scholarships to women.
Miss America Competition LLC sought relief under Chapter 11 of the
U.S. Bankruptcy Code (Bankr. S.D. Fla. Case No. 24-22288) on

MORICI RACING: Lender Seeks to Prohibit Cash Collateral Access
--------------------------------------------------------------
Firstrust Bank asks the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern
District of Florida, West Palm Beach Division, to prohibit Morici
Racing Stable, LLC from using cash collateral.
The bank holds a secured SBA loan originally issued on March 28,
2023, in the amount of $650,000 with a 10-year term and variable
interest rate of 9.75% at the time of the Debtor's Chapter 11
filing.
The Debtor granted Firstrust a blanket lien, which the bank
perfected through a filed UCC-1 financing statement. As of August
29, outstanding obligations totaled $571,647.60 in principal,
$4,335 in accrued interest, $7,539 in late fees, and additional
attorney's fees connected to the Debtor's priority related
bankruptcy filed by its owners, with more interest accruing up to
the petition date. The Debtor is in default for failing to make
required monthly payments, prompting acceleration of the entire
loan balance.
Firstrust clarifies that it has not waived any rights under the
loan or related agreements and expressly states that it does not
consent to any use of its cash collateral. It further asserts that
the Debtor has not contacted the bank to seek permission to use
cash collateral, has not notified the bank of any intention to file
a motion with the court for such use, and has failed to offer any
form of adequate protection as required by the Bankruptcy Code.
The bank requests that the court issue an order restricting any use
of its cash collateral and requiring strict accounting and
segregation of all funds, together with any additional relief
deemed appropriate.
A court hearing is scheduled for December 9.

NEEDSPACE HACKS: Lender Seeks to Prohibit Cash Access
-----------------------------------------------------
Westdale Capital Investors 3, LP asks the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for
the Northern District of Mississippi to prohibit Needspace Hacks
Cross, LLC from using cash collateral and to require post-petition
segregation and accounting of the same.
Westdale traces its interest in the Debtor's property and cash
collateral to a Secured Construction Promissory Note executed on
July 27, 2023, by Marion Threatt, the Debtor's sole member, payable
to Bank OZK in the principal amount of $5,502,000 with a maturity
date of July 27, 2028. The debt was secured by a Construction Deed
of Trust, Security Agreement, Assignment of Leases and Rents,
Fixture Filing, and an Absolute Assignment of Rents covering the
Real Property known as Needspace Self Storage in Olive Branch,
Mississippi, as well as by Threatt's unconditional personal
guaranty.
On September 11, Bank OZK assigned all of its rights and interests
in the loan, the Deed of Trust, and the Assignment of Rents to
Westdale, making it the secured creditor. As of the Debtor's
Chapter 11 filing on November 6, the loan balance was
$6,162,032.70, with arrears of $742,456.04, including unpaid ad
valorem taxes. The Debtor had not made a payment since May 6, and
was in default under the loan documents, failing to pay taxes,
maintain insurance on the property, or provide Westdale with
requested information regarding its rents.
Westdale expressed concern that the Debtor's operations, which are
largely automated, obscure the collection and disposition of rental
income from storage units, potentially commingling rents from other
affiliated properties, and putting Westdale's cash collateral at
significant risk. The Debtor's pre-petition acceptance of assets
and liabilities from a related entity, Need Space Westbranch, LLC,
further complicates tracing and safeguarding Westdale's cash
collateral, creating the potential for improper use of secured
funds to pay other creditors.
Because of these circumstances, Westdale asserts that the rents,
leases, and profits from the Real Property assigned under the Deed
of Trust and Assignment of Rents constitute its cash collateral
under 11 U.S.C. section 363(a), and the Debtor may not use such
cash collateral without either Westdale's consent or Court
authorization under section363(c)(2). Westdale has not consented to
the use of its cash collateral and seeks an order prohibiting the
Debtor from using it, requiring segregation of all cash collateral
in the Debtor's or tenants' possession, and providing an accounting
of all cash collateral used by the Debtor or its insiders since the
petition date. Alternatively, if the Court allows any use of cash
collateral, Westdale requests that it be subject to a reasonable
budget and accompanied by adequate protection payments.
A court hearing is scheduled for December 10.

NEW FORTRESS: Swings to $293 Million Net Loss in 2025 Q3
--------------------------------------------------------
New Fortress Energy Inc. filed with the U.S. Securities and
Exchange Commission its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q reporting a
net loss of $293.4 million for the three months ended September 30,
2025, compared to a net income of $11.3 million for the three
months ended September 30, 2024.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company reported
a net loss of $1 billion, compared to a net loss of $18.9 million
for the same period in 2024.
Total revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and
2024, were $327.4 million and $567.5 million, respectively. For
the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, the Company had
total revenues of $1.1 billion and $1.7 billion, respectively.
As of September 30, 2025, the Company had $11.9 billion in total
assets, $10.8 billion in total liabilities, and $1.1 billion in
total stockholders' billion.
New Fortress says it has evaluated whether conditions exist that
give rise to substantial doubt as to the ability of the Company to
continue as a going concern, considering the following:
-- The Company recognized operating losses and negative
operating cash flows during each of the first three quarters of
2025, with this decline in earnings accelerating in the second
quarter of 2025. Its forecasted cash flows are expected to be
impacted by, among other things, reduced earnings following the
sale of the Jamaica Business and increased interest expense.
-- In November 2025, the Company entered into amendments to
the Revolving Credit Agreement, the Letter of Credit Agreement and
the Term Loan A Credit Agreement to, among other things:
(a) in the case of the Letter of Credit Facility, extend
the maturity date of the facility to March 31, 2026,
(b) provide for a covenant holiday with respect to (x)
the consolidated first lien debt ratio and fixed charge coverage
ratio covenants contained therein for the fiscal quarter ended
September 30, 2025 (or in the case of the Letter of Credit
Facility, also provide for a covenant holiday for the fiscal
quarter ending December 31, 2025) and (y) the minimum liquidity
requirement contained therein for the fiscal quarter ended December
31, 2025 (or in the case of the Letter of Credit Facility, remove
the fiscal quarter minimum liquidity test altogether),
(c) remove certain flexibility the Company had to pay
dividends and other distributions, and
(d) restrict the Company's ability to make payments of
principal or interest accruing on certain outstanding indebtedness,
including the November 17, 2025 interest payment on the New 2029
Notes.
-- The Company also does not expect to be in compliance with
the consolidated first lien debt ratio and fixed charge coverage
ratio covenants for the fiscal quarter ending December 31, 2025
under the Revolving Credit Agreement and the Term Loan A Credit
Agreement.
"If we do not enter into an agreement with the lenders under the
Revolving Facility and the Term Loan A Credit Agreement to provide
for a covenant holiday or other covenant relief for the fiscal
quarter ending December 31, 2025, by the time we furnish to the
administrative agents for the Revolving Facility and Term Loan A
Credit Agreement audited financial statements for such fiscal year,
the lenders would have the right to accelerate the repayment of the
outstanding principal under the Revolving Facility and Term Loan A
Credit Agreement. If the lenders choose to exercise such rights
under those facilities, substantially all of our outstanding
indebtedness could be accelerated, and we would not have sufficient
liquidity or capital resources to satisfy its outstanding principal
obligations."
-- NFE Financing LLC, a subsidiary of the Company, did not
make the interest payment of $163.8 million due to holders of the
New 2029 Notes on November 17, 2025. An event of default under the
indenture governing the New 2029 Notes will arise on November 20,
2025, when the contractual grace period for interest payments on
such notes expires.
On November 18, 2025, the Company and certain of its subsidiaries,
including the New 2029 Notes Issuer, entered into a forbearance
agreement with the beneficial holders of greater than 70% of the
New 2029 Notes, pursuant to which such beneficial holders agreed to
forbear from accelerating or exercising remedies in respect of such
event of default.
Unless earlier terminated, the New 2029 Notes Forbearance Agreement
will terminate on December 15, 2025. Upon the termination of the
New 2029 Notes Forbearance Agreement, if a further forbearance or
debt restructuring is not agreed to, the holders of the New 2029
Notes could accelerate the outstanding principal balance of the New
2029 Notes, in which case substantially all of our other
outstanding debt would become payable on demand.
The New 2029 Notes Forbearance Agreement contains conditions,
covenants, termination rights and other provisions customary for
forbearance agreements of that type.
-- The Company was required to provide a $79.1 million bank
guarantee to holders of the PortoCem Debentures on or before August
17, 2025; this guarantee was not provided by the deadline, and as a
result, a majority of debenture holders had the right to call for a
meeting of holders and declare an event of early maturity.
On October 11, 2025, the debenture holders unanimously permanently
waived their ability to declare an early maturity event due to the
failure to provide the bank guarantee.
The remaining $79.1 million bank guarantee is now due on or before
May 10, 2026, and if this guarantee or an equivalent amount of
equity contribution to the project company is not made by this
date, an automatic event of default will exist under the amended
debenture agreement.
"We are discussing providing this bank guarantee with our creditors
under new credit arrangements, and should additional financing or
credit capacity be provided under new credit agreements, we intend
to comply with the requirements of the waiver. However, based on
our current liquidity, we determined that it is not currently
probable that the bank guarantee can be provided, absent an
agreement with our existing creditors or new lenders. If such
automatic early maturity event were to occur, substantially all of
our outstanding indebtedness would be payable on demand."
-- Additionally, the Company have $510.9 million aggregate
principal amount outstanding as of September 30, 2025 under its
2026 Notes, which mature on September 30, 2026.
If more than $100 million of the 2026 Notes remain outstanding 91
days prior to this maturity date, the outstanding principal of $2.7
billion under the New 2029 Notes becomes due. If any of the 2026
Notes remains outstanding on the Springing Maturity Date, the
outstanding balance under the Revolving Facility becomes due.
As of September 30, 2025, the Revolving Facility was fully drawn
with $660.4 million in revolving loans and $69.5 million in letters
of credit.
Additionally, if any of the 2026 Notes remain outstanding on July
31, 2026, the outstanding principal under the Term Loan B becomes
due.
Also, if any of the 2026 Notes remain outstanding 60 days prior to
the maturity date of the 2026 Notes, the outstanding principal
under the Term Loan A Credit Agreement becomes due.
As of September 30, 2025, there was $295.0 million outstanding
under the Term Loan A Credit Agreement and $1.27 billion
outstanding under the Term Loan B.
As such, management has concluded that the Company's current
liquidity and forecasted cash flows from operations are not
probable to be sufficient to support, in full, its obligations as
they become due, and there is substantial doubt as to the Company's
ability to continue as a going concern.
"Should we not be in compliance with covenants in the Revolving
Credit Agreement and Term Loan A Credit Agreement in the future, we
will engage in negotiations with these lenders to obtain a waiver
to avoid acceleration of outstanding balances," the Company
explained.
"Additionally, should the Company not provide the additional bank
guarantee to holders of the PortoCem Debentures by the required
date, we will engage with these holders to avoid an event of early
maturity. We have also initiated a process to evaluate strategic
alternatives and have retained a financial advisor to assist in
this evaluation."
"We, along with our advisors, are considering all options
available, including asset sales, capital raising, debt amendments
and refinancing transactions, or, other strategic transactions that
seek to provide additional liquidity and relief from acceleration
under its debt agreements. We are activity managing our liquidity
as we continue this evaluation with our advisors, and as part of
this process, we are negotiating payment plans with significant
vendors, most significantly the owners under our vessel charters.
"If unsuccessful in these strategic alternatives, we may be
required or compelled to pursue additional restructuring
initiatives to preserve value and optionality, including possible
out of court restructurings, or in-court relief, in the U.K. or the
U.S., which could have a material and adverse impact on
stockholders.
"There are inherent uncertainties as the outcome of these
negotiations and potential transactions described above are outside
management's control, and therefore there are no assurances that
management will be successful in these negotiations and that any of
these potential transactions will occur.
"In addition, there can be no assurances that these transactions
will sufficiently improve our liquidity or that we will otherwise
realize the anticipated benefits."
The Company is also evaluating strategies to obtain the required
additional funding for its future operations, including the
following transactions that are excluded from our forecast, among
other things:
(1) settlement of the Company's claims resulting from the
termination of the emergency power services contract in Puerto Rico
in the first quarter of 2024,
(2) realization of up to $110.0 million in proceeds from the
modification of Genera's Operation and Maintenance Agreement;
(3) receipt of proceeds from the sale of the Jamaica Business
that are currently in escrow;
(4) expected cash flows from new business in Puerto Rico and
Brazil.

assets, $40,350,129 in total liabilities, $106,324,241 in total
temporary equity, and $17,880,668 in total stockholders' deficit.
Spokane, Wash.-based Fruci & Associates II, PLLC, the Company's
auditor since 2024, issued a "going concern" qualification in its
report dated October 14, 2025, attached to the Company's Annual
Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2025, citing
that the Company has an accumulated deficit, limited available cash
resources and does not believe cash on hand will be sufficient to
fund operations and growth. These factors, among others, raise
substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a
going concern.
NIGHTFOOD HOLDINGS: Strengthens Balance Sheet with $91.5MM Equity
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Nightfood Holdings Inc. provided a letter to shareholders
highlighting its recent accomplishments and vision for the next
stage of expansion:
"After executing at high levels across both our strategic
acquisition roadmap and our operational buildout, the quarter ended
Sept. 30, 2025, marks one of the most transformational periods in
Nightfood Holdings' history. As a result, we are positioned for
scalable growth as we move into 2026, prepared to take our company
to the next level," it said.
Two Strategic Acquisitions Closed;
$91.5MM in Additional Temporary Equity Captured
1. Victorville Holiday Inn (Victorville, Calif.):
"This property is being transformed into our AI Hospitality
Innovation Hub, where robotics will be piloted across housekeeping,
food service, and guest management. Renovations are underway for a
significant flagship upgrade that will introduce a refreshed brand
identity and an elevated guest experience. The property will also
feature a new state-of-the-art fitness center designed to attract
additional revenue through enhanced amenities and increased guest
engagement."
2. Rancho Mirage Hilton Garden Inn (Rancho Mirage, Calif.):
"At $52.8 million, this was our largest acquisition to date. It
provides a premium setting for demonstrating robotics integration
in upscale hospitality. This property will serve as a flagship
deployment site for our Robotics-as-a-Service (RaaS) model, proving
how automation can scale across diverse hotel environments and
laying the groundwork for broader industry adoption."
"These transactions enhance our platform with substantial assets,
revenue streams, and operational capacity. More importantly, the
consolidation of these entities resulted in the recognition of
$91.5 million in additional temporary equity, dramatically
strengthening our balance sheet. Management believes that a
significant portion of this temporary equity will convert to
perpetual equity upon the Company's anticipated uplisting, further
enhancing long-term shareholder value.
"But beyond the financial impact, these acquisitions are
cornerstones of our strategy to build a vertically integrated
robotics ecosystem. By combining automation innovation with hard
real estate assets, we are creating a unique model where our
robotics technology can be deployed, tested, and scaled within our
own properties, while simultaneously generating recurring
hospitality revenue.
"Together, these acquisitions give us control of real-world
laboratories where we can refine robotics solutions, validate ROI,
and build case studies that will accelerate adoption across the
hospitality sector and beyond. They also anchor our balance sheet
with hard assets, ensuring that our technological growth is
supported by tangible real estate value.
"Further, these represent a critical moment in our multi-phase
strategy, repositioning Nightfood Holdings as a well-capitalized,
asset-backed technology and automation company that is prepared for
synergistic integration into our robotics brand. Strengthening the
capital structure also enhances our ability to secure future
financing, advance uplisting objectives, and support the continued
expansion of our Robotics-as-a-Service (RaaS) model."
Advancing Robotics Production
Engineering & Market Deployment
"While our acquisition and finance teams were completing these
transactions, the other half of our organization remained fully
focused on aggressively expanding our robotics business."
Key areas of progress include:
* Increasing production capacity to support anticipated 2026
deployments
* Escalating unit throughput and advancing supplier
coordination
* Engineering support for new SKUs
* Expanding deployment of robots across new verticals beyond
hospitality, including cleaning, logistics, and back-of-house
automation
* Broadening customer trials and scaling paid pilot programs
"The team's ability to sustain momentum on scaling production,
while simultaneously navigating two complex acquisitions,
demonstrates a level of commitment and operational maturity
increasingly essential as we continue to grow."
Positioned for a Breakout Year in 2026
"With a strengthened capital structure, additional real assets,
improved equity position, and rapidly expanding robotics production
capabilities, Nightfood Holdings is entering 2026 in its strongest
position to date."
Key strategic outcomes from this quarter include:
* Enhanced balance sheet supporting future robotics expansion
* A foundation of hard assets underpinning institutional
financing initiatives
* Improved shareholder equity supporting uplisting efforts
* Increased production capacity to support expected 2026
demand
* Deployment of robotics across broader industries, improving
revenue diversity
* Continued progress toward building a vertically integrated
RaaS platform
Looking Ahead
"We remain committed to building a company that leads the next wave
of AI-driven automation across hospitality, facilities, logistics,
and service industries. The work completed this quarter was
foundational, setting the stage for accelerating revenue
generation, broader deployments, and long-term profitability.
"I want to personally thank our shareholders, employees, and
partners for their ongoing support as we continue scaling a
business with the potential to meaningfully reshape how
organizations operate through robotics and automation."
Sincerely,
Jimmy Chan

Statement describing Plan of Reorganization dated November 30,

The Debtor filed an application to employ Sold 100 Real Estate Inc

Suite D, Greenbelt, Maryland, which the court granted on September
3, 2025.
On October 24, 2025, the Court issued an Order Approving Third
Amended Disclosure Statement and Setting Hearing on Confirmation of
Plan and Fixing Time for Filing Acceptances or Rejections of Plan
Combined with Notice Thereof on November 17, 2025. The Debtor filed
a Tally of Ballots showing 100% vote in favor of the court
confirming the Debtor's Chapter 11 Plan.
At the hearing on November 17, 2025, it was disclosed that the
amount of the general unsecured debts listed in the Chapter 11 Plan
and the approved Third Amended Disclosure Statement was understated
because it did not include the undisputed unsecured debts totaling
$222,570.00. As a result, the court denied confirmation of the
plan, with leave to amend to include the general unsecured debts in
an order dated November 24, 2025.
The property was listed for sale and has a buyer the Debtor has
approved its letter of intent for $140,000.00. There has been no
other offer for the purchase of the property.
Class 2 are general unsecured claims and will be paid approximately
5.2% of their claim. The allowed unsecured claims total
$566,825.05. Unsecured claims shall be paid $29,474.90 at the
commencement date of the Plan from the funds in the DIP account and
any balance will be paid at the rate of $270.00 per month,
commencing thirty days after the effective date of the plan. It is
expected that the debtor would have received the refund of the
garnishment check of $13,406.80 before the effective date of the
Plan.
Class 3 are equity interest holders, and they are impaired under
the plan and will receive the pro-rata share of monies available
after payment to classes 1 and 2, based upon each Class 3
claimant's percentage interest in the Reorganized Debtor. Insiders
in this class are not entitled to vote.
Pursuant to Section 1123(a)(5) of the Code the debtor will fund the
Chapter 11 Plan through sale of 7225 Hanover Parkway, Suite D,
Greenbelt, MD 20770. Debtor will file a motion to approve the
employment of Billy Okoye a Real Estate Broker with Sold 100 Real
Estate, Inc. It is expected that after the cost of sale, Debtor
would have approximately $135,000.00 for distribution to
creditors.

NORTHWEST WATERPROOFING: Seeks Cash Collateral Access
-----------------------------------------------------
Northwest Waterproofing LLC asks the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the
District of Oregon for authority to use cash collateral and provide
adequate protection.
Prior to the bankruptcy filing, the Debtor granted security
interests through UCC filings to two creditors: Creditor 1 (CAN),
which holds a first-priority lien on all present and future
accounts, chattel paper, deposit accounts, personal property,
assets, fixtures, equipment, inventory, general intangibles,
instruments, and proceeds; and Creditor 2 (VOX), which holds a
junior lien covering the same types of pre-petition collateral,
including future receipts of payments made to the Debtor. Creditor
1's interest is superior in priority to all other creditors.
The Debtor seeks both preliminary and final authority to use cash
collateral to maintain operations and fund ordinary course business
expenses. An itemized 14-day budget projects monthly operating
costs and provides for short-term use of cash collateral pending a
final hearing.
The Debtor asserts that there are no alternative financing sources
available and that without access to cash collateral, it would be
unable to continue operations, jeopardizing its ability to
reorganize and forcing liquidation of assets at below-market value,
which would cause irreparable harm to the estate and creditors.
To protect the interests of Creditor 1 and Creditor 2, the Debtor
proposes granting replacement liens under 11 U.S.C. Section 361(2)
on post-petition collateral of the same type as the pre-petition
collateral, ensuring that the creditors’ security interests are
not diminished by the Debtor’s use of cash collateral.
The Debtor requests the court to authorize the use of cash
collateral for ongoing operations, as outlined in the budget
totaling $96,797, and to grant replacement liens effective as of
November 25, 2025, along with any other relief the Court deems
appropriate.

PAREXEL MIDCO: S&P Alters Outlook to Negative, Affirms 'B+' ICR
---------------------------------------------------------------
S&P Global Ratings affirmed its 'B+' issuer credit rating and
revised the outlook to negative on contract research organization
(CRO) Parexel Midco Inc. At the same time, S&P assigned its 'B+'
issue-level and '4' recovery ratings to the proposed first-lien
term loan.
S&P said, "The negative outlook reflects risk to our base case for
leverage to decline to 6x over the next year, especially given the
softened demand for CRO services. We could lower our rating to 'B'
if we expect leverage will remain above 6x for longer than
expected.
"We forecast S&P Global Ratings-adjusted leverage will remain above
6x for the next 12 months. The dividend recapitalization increases
Parexel's leverage to around 6.5x, half a turn higher than our 6x
downside threshold for the 'B+' rating. This transaction reflects a
more aggressive financial policy than we had previously
anticipated. Although leverage is now weak for the rating, the
ratio of cash flow to debt is still supportive of the 'B+', and our
base case is that the company will deleverage to 6x, the threshold
for the rating, within about a year. That said, our forecast is
subject to elevated uncertainty around industry dynamics, in which
demand for CRO services has been softer than usual in 2024-2025 but
is showing some signs of potential improvement in 2026.
"The negative outlook reflects risk to our base case for leverage
to decline to 6x over the next year, especially given the softened
demand for CRO services. We could lower our rating to 'B' if we
expect leverage will remain above 6x for longer than expected."
Parexel's growth outlook remains weak given industry headwinds
affecting CROs. Net new business awards improved sequentially in
the third quarter but remain below historical levels. S&P forecasts
revenue will be relatively flat in 2026, with gradual improvement
not expected until the latter half of the year or 2027, and modest
margin improvement helped by restructuring efforts. There is
limited cushion at the 'B+' rating for additional cancellations or
further softening of demand. Although there are early signs of
stabilization, such as a recovery in biotech funding, the path to
revenue growth in 2026 and beyond remains unclear, particularly
among large pharmaceutical clients facing pipeline challenges and
executive orders targeting drug pricing. While the ongoing shift by
many large clients toward more limited utilization of CROs via the
functional service provider (FSP) model has weighed on industry
growth and profitability, demand for full-service outsourcing (FSO)
remains more resilient among small and midsize pharma and biotech
clients that lack internal scale and capabilities and therefore
rely on end-to-end support.
Recent cost restructuring actions will support improvement in
EBITDA margins in 2026. Parexel has made solid progress on its cost
restructuring initiatives through the third quarter, including
workforce reductions to better align headcount with demand. S&P
said, "Our base-case scenario assumes the restructuring efforts
will conclude in the first quarter of 2026. With revenue growth
likely to remain constrained over the next 12 months, we believe
EBITDA margin expansion will be the primary contributor to
deleveraging. We burden our EBITDA measure with restructuring
charges and expect margins will decline to about 14.5% in 2025
before improving to about 15.5% in 2026 as costs savings fully
materialize. Despite the greater debt burden, we forecast healthy
FOCF in 2026, supported by cost savings and our assumption of a
modest decline in benchmark interest rates. Specifically, we
forecast FOCF to debt of about 8% in 2025 and 7% in 2026, which we
view as generally consistent with the 'B+' rating."
S&P said, "The negative outlook reflects risk to our base case for
leverage to decline to 6x over the next year, especially given the
softened demand for CRO services. We could lower our rating to 'B'
if we expect leverage will remain above 6x for longer than
expected.
"We could lower our rating on Parexel if believe it will sustain
leverage of greater than 6x or if the ratio of FOCF to debt
declines below 5% on a sustained basis. This could occur if demand
headwinds persist, additional restructuring charges are incurred to
right-size its cost structure, or financial policy is more
aggressive than anticipated.
"We could revise our outlook on Parexel to stable if its
performance meets our base-case expectations, including at least
modest improvement in new business awards by late 2026, and
improved EBITDA margins in 2026 that allow it to generally maintain
both leverage below 6x and a ratio of FOCF to debt above 5%."

PINE GATE: Proposes Ch. 11 Deal With Carlyle to Protect Recoveries
------------------------------------------------------------------
Vince Sullivan of Law360 reports that Pine Gate Renewables LLC told
a Texas bankruptcy judge that it has reached a proposed settlement
allowing it to sell certain project assets that serve as collateral
for secured lender Carlyle, while simultaneously blocking the
lender from taking steps that could undercut the company's
restructuring efforts. The sale would generate funds to address
secured debt while preserving the value of ongoing operations.
The company said the agreement ensures an orderly sale process and
prevents Carlyle from initiating aggressive collection or
foreclosure actions as negotiations continue. Pine Gate argued the
compromise offers the best chance to maximize recoveries across the
capital structure, according to report.

PMHC II: Palmer Square Marks $10.8MM 1L Loan at 19% Off
-------------------------------------------------------
Palmer Square Capital BDC Inc. has marked its $10,832,089 loan
extended to PMHC II Inc. to market at $8,779,463 or 81% of the
outstanding amount, according to Palmer Square's Form 10-Q for the
quarterly period ended September 30, 2025, filed with the U.S.
Securities and Exchange Commission.
Palmer Square is a participant in a First Lien Senior Secured Loan
to PMHC II Inc. The loan accrues interest at a rate of 8.73% (S
+CSA + 4.25%) per annum. The loan matures on April 23, 2028.
Palmer Square is a financial services company that primarily lends
to and invests in corporate debt securities of companies, including
small to large private U.S. companies. The company was organized as
a Maryland corporation on August 26, 2019 and is structured as an
externally managed, non-diversified closed-end management
investment company.
Palmer Square investment objective is to maximize total return,
comprised of current income and capital appreciation. The Company's
current investment focus is guided by two strategies that
facilitate its investment opportunities and core competencies:
Investing in corporate debt securities and, to a lesser extent,
investing in collateralized loan obligation structured credit funds
that typically own corporate debt securities, including the equity
and junior debt tranches of collaterized loan obligations.
Palmer Square is led by Christopher D. Long as Chief Executive
Officer and Director; and Jeffrey D. Fox as Chief Financial Officer
and Director.

POST HOLDINGS: S&P Rates New $1.3BB Senior Unsecured Notes 'B+'
---------------------------------------------------------------
S&P Global Ratings assigned its 'B+' issue-level rating and '4'
recovery rating to Post Holdings Inc.'s proposed $1.3 billion
senior unsecured notes due March 2036. The '4' recovery rating
indicates its expectations for average (30%-50%; rounded estimate:
45%) recovery in the event of a payment default. The notes will
rank pari passu with the company's existing senior unsecured
facilities.
Post will use the net proceeds from these notes to repay its $1.25
billion ($1.24 billion outstanding) 5.5% senior unsecured notes due
2029 and apply any remaining proceeds to cover fees and add cash to
its balance sheet. S&P said, "We expect the transaction will be
largely leverage neutral. We will withdraw our ratings on the
company's existing 5.5% notes after they are repaid. Our ratings on
the proposed notes are based on preliminary terms and are subject
to review upon the receipt of final documentation."
S&P said, "All our existing ratings on Post, including our 'B+'
long-term issuer credit rating, are unchanged. We view the
company's decision to begin addressing its large 2029 maturity wall
as credit positive." Despite the secular pressures facing the
packaged foods industry, Post's credit metrics remain strong for
the rating because of its recent lack of transformational merger
and acquisition activity and its strong free operating cash flow
(FOCF) generation. Specifically, the company increased its net
sales by 3% in fiscal year 2025 on strong performance in its
foodservice segment and contributions from its acquisitions of 8th
Avenue and Potato Products of Idaho.
The weakness in Post's Consumer Brands volumes was exacerbated in
the fourth quarter, primarily due to continued cereal category
declines and reductions in its co-manufactured and private label
products, as well as distribution losses in its pet food business.
However, the company's strategy of prioritizing profitability
improvements supported a 7% expansion in its S&P Global
Ratings-adjusted EBITDA, which it achieved through manufacturing
and supply chain improvements, reduced ingredient and freight
costs, and the realization of benefits from its cost-savings
initiatives. Pro forma for its divestiture of 8th Avenue's pasta
assets, S&P estimates Post's consolidated leverage increased to
4.8x as of the end of fiscal year 2025 from 4.5x a year ago.
S&P said, "For fiscal year 2026, we forecast the company will
increase its revenue and S&P Global Ratings-adjusted EBITDA by
about 3% and 5%, respectively. We also forecast Post will improve
its reported FOCF to more than $650 million, from about $488
million in fiscal year 2025 driven by higher profitability, better
working capital management, and lower capital expenditure (capex).
We believe the company will continue to use its FOCF for share
repurchases, instead of debt reduction, which will cause its
leverage to remain near 5x (comfortably below our 7x downgrade
threshold).
"The stable outlook reflects our expectation that Post will
generate FOCF of about $500 million annually. However, we believe
the company could sustain leverage of 5x or more as it executes its
holding company strategy by continuing to buy and sell assets."
Issue Ratings--Recovery Analysis
Key analytical factors
-- Post is the issuer of all the company's debt. Following this
transaction, the company's debt structure will comprise a $1
billion revolving credit facility due 2029, $1 billion of 6.25%
senior secured notes due 2032, $575 million of 2.5% convertible
notes due 2027, $1.65 billion of 4.625% senior unsecured notes due
2030 ($1.4 billion outstanding), $1.8 billion of 4.5% senior
unsecured notes due 2031 ($1 billion outstanding), $1.2 billion of
6.375% senior unsecured notes due 2033, $600 million of 6.25%
senior unsecured notes due 2034, and $1.3 billion of proposed
senior unsecured notes due 2036.
-- The senior secured facilities are unconditionally guaranteed by
Post's existing and subsequently acquired direct and indirect
domestic subsidiaries, and secured by security interests in
substantially all it and its subsidiary guarantors' assets,
including certain material real property.
-- The unsecured notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed on
a senior unsecured basis by the company's existing and future
domestic subsidiaries. Post's foreign subsidiaries, which account
for less than 10% of its sales, will not guarantee the notes.
-- Post is incorporated and headquartered in the U.S. In the event
of an insolvency proceeding, we anticipate the company would file
for bankruptcy protection under the auspices of the U.S. federal
bankruptcy court system and not involve foreign jurisdictions.
Simulated default assumptions
S&P's simulated default scenario assumes the company's liquidity is
strained by weak sales and profitability due to heightened
competitive pressures combined with higher commodity costs and
consumer preference for other products or a major product recall.
These factors hamper Post's margins and cash flow, rendering it
unable to meet its fixed charges.
-- Year of default: 2029
-- EBITDA at emergence: $735 million
-- Emergence enterprise value multiple: 7x
The emergence-level EBITDA incorporates a 5% operational adjustment
(to reflect the recoupment of sales volumes and cost-cutting
efforts that improve its margins) on top of the default-level
EBITDA. The default EBITDA roughly reflects fixed-charge
requirements of about $447 million in interest costs (we assume a
higher rate because of default and include prepetition interest)
and $253 million of minimal capex assumed at default. S&P estimates
a gross valuation of $5.1 billion, assuming a 7x EBITDA multiple.
This multiple is in the typical range it uses for some of the
company's peers.
Simplified waterfall
-- Gross recovery value: $5.1 billion
-- Net recovery value for waterfall after administrative expenses
(5%): $4.9 billion
-- Obligor/nonobligor valuation split: 85%/15%
-- Collateral value available to secured debt: $4.6 billion
-- Estimated senior secured claims: $1.9 billion
--Recovery expectations senior secured debt: 90%-100% (rounded
estimate: 95%)
-- Remaining value to unsecured claims: $3 billion
-- Estimated unsecured debt claims: $6.2 billion
--Recovery expectations senior unsecured debt: 30%-50% (rounded
estimate: 45%)
Note: All debt amounts include six months of prepetition interest.

issue-level rating to its senior secured debt. S&P also assigned a
'3' recovery rating.
The stable outlook reflects S&P's expectation for favorable
operating performance supported by industry headwinds and organic
and M&A topline growth resulting in S&P Global Ratings-adjusted
debt to EBITDA sustained at 7x-8x.
Pye-Barker plans to issue a $355 million revolving credit facility,
$2.175 billion first-lien term loan, and $325 million delayed draw
term loan to refinance its existing debt and fund acquisitions
S&P said, "We base our ratings on the company's aggressive
debt-funded acquisition growth strategy, decent market position in
the highly fragmented FLS industry, and modest debt service
ratios.
"Our rating reflects Pye-Barker's small but growing market position
in the large U.S. fire protection services industry. The company
operates in the highly fragmented FLS industry, which is made up
mostly of local and regional providers. It has about a 4% market
share in the company-estimated $36 billion U.S. FLS industry and
operates in 47 states. We believe there is some geographic
concentration risk, as it generates more than half of its revenue
from 10 states, with the largest being Florida. Pye-Barker has a
diversified customer base of more than 10 end markets. It's
acquisition strategy, while aggressive, focuses on geographic and
vertical expansion, contributing to its full-service fire
protection services platform.
"Given the fragmented marketplace, Pye-Barker has opportunities to
continue growing through acquisitions. We view this business as
stable despite economic conditions given the nondiscretionary
nature of the services it provides. These include fire suppression
systems, alarms, monitoring and sprinklers, with most revenue
recurring because of fire code regulation and commercial
insurance.
"We anticipate topline growth and cost initiatives will support
solid performance. We believe the company will benefit from its
high customer retention rates due to the recurring nature of the
business. We forecast acquisitions will be a primary driver of
double-digit increases in revenue in the next one to two years.
Further fueling growth will be cross selling opportunities within
the existing customer base and its ability to raise prices given
the nondiscretionary nature of the service offerings. We think
there are opportunities for sales leverage and cost reduction
stemming from the large number of acquisitions the company has
recently completed, leading us to believe EBITDA margins will
improve between 100 basis points (bps) and 125 bps over the next
two years from our estimated level of about 15.3% for 2025."
Pye-Barker's private-equity ownership and acquisition-focused
strategy may limit deleveraging, constraining possible ratings
upside. Altas and Leonard Green Partners currently have majority
ownership of the company. The sponsors have supported the rapid M&A
plan, having completed 220 acquisitions since 2019. S&P said, "We
expect it will use excess cash flows to continue its acquisition
strategy while keeping leverage elevated. For 2025, we expect
leverage of about 7.5x, improving modestly to the low-7x area next
year as better profits offset drawings on its delayed draw term
loan to fund acquisitions."
S&P said, "Acquisition integration is a risk we continue to
monitor. While the company has proven its ability to integrate a
large number of acquisitions, key areas we focus on are its
initiatives to retain clients in new markets and fold acquired
companies into its technology systems. We also think it is
important for the company to carefully manage customer
relationships for newly acquired companies to maintain retention
levels.
"The stable outlook reflects our belief that Pye-Barker will
continue to increase revenue through organic and M&A-related growth
while improving margins and successfully integrating acquisitions.
"We could lower our rating on Pye-Barker if revenue growth slows
due to operational issues or problems integrating acquisitions,
resulting in debt to EBITDA sustained above 7.5x or FOCF to debt
maintained in the low single digit percent range."
S&P could raise its rating on Pye-Barker if:
-- The company diversifies and expands its business while
sustaining debt to EBITDA below 5x and FOCF to debt in the
high-single-digit percent area; and
-- Pye-Barker commits to a conservative financial policy that
includes a focus on debt reduction, which S&P believes might be
unlikely given the financial-sponsor ownership and the company's
debt-funded growth strategy.

RHODIUM ENCORE: Urges Court to Confirm Chapter 11 Plan
------------------------------------------------------
Yun Park of Law360 Bankruptcy Authority reports that Rhodium Encore
urged a Texas bankruptcy judge to sign off on its Chapter 11 plan,
asserting that the restructuring blueprint has gained
near-unanimous support from creditors even after a contentious
bankruptcy process. The company highlighted that the plan promises
to pay all creditors in full, a central reason it believes the
court should approve it.
The bitcoin miner argued that remaining challenges to confirmation
lack merit and should not delay the case any further. According to
Rhodium, the proposal offers the most viable route for resolving
claims and moving the company forward after months of disputes.

RITE AID: Gets Chapter 11 Plan Court Confirmation
-------------------------------------------------
Emlyn Cameron of Law360 reports that Rite Aid secured confirmation
of its Chapter 11 reorganization plan in its ongoing bankruptcy
case, marking a significant step toward its proposed restructuring.
The approval follows months of negotiations with lenders,
landlords, and other stakeholders amid the company's second trip
through bankruptcy in recent years.
Meanwhile, the U.S. Supreme Court declined to hear an appeal
challenging whether the bankruptcy judge improperly allowed
unsecured creditors to pursue certain claims. The high court's
refusal leaves in place lower-court rulings on creditor standing as
Rite Aid prepares to implement its newly confirmed plan.

RXO INC: S&P Alters Outlook to Negative, Affirms 'BB' ICR
---------------------------------------------------------
S&P Global Ratings revised the outlook on RXO Inc. to negative from
stable and affirmed its 'BB' issuer credit rating (ICR) on the
company. S&P also affirmed its 'BB' issue-level rating, with a '3'
recovery rating, on the unsecured notes.
The negative outlook reflects the risk that any further
deterioration in ongoing weak freight market conditions expected
for 2026 could offset the assumed reduction in RXO's cost base,
limiting improvement in the company's credit measures to levels S&P
views as commensurate with its 'BB' ICR.
S&P said, "We expect RXO Inc. will generate earnings and cash flow
below our previous estimates for 2025 and 2026, and forecast its
funds from operations (FFO)-to-debt ratio will be below our 20%
downside rating threshold this year.
"We expect operating performance will remain pressured from subdued
freight demand through much of 2026, with earnings growth highly
dependent on restructuring cost containment and synergies from
RXO's Coyote Logistics integration.
"RXO's credit measures are weak for the rating, and a recovery is
uncertain amid continuing freight market softness. We expect RXO to
generate operating results below our previous estimates,
underpinned by persistently subdued freight market demand that
contributed to credit measures that are weak for the rating this
year. We now estimate the company's FFO-to-debt ratio at about 16%
in 2025, which breaches the 20% downside threshold for our rating
on RXO. We assume this ratio will improve to just over 20% in 2026,
which incorporates lower Coyote-related restructuring costs
(estimated at about $54 million for 2025) and synergies that are
expected to lead to higher earnings and cash flow. However, we do
not envision material near-term improvement and there is no
visibility regarding the timing of an eventual strengthening in
freight market conditions. Therefore, we believe there is at least
a one-in-three chance we could lower the rating over the next 12
months.
"RXO experienced significant volume declines throughout 2025 in its
full truckload brokerage segment beyond our previous estimates,
stemming primarily from management's efforts to maintain pricing
integrity amid a period of protracted soft freight demand and
relatively flat (and low) prices year over year. In addition, cost
synergies associated with the company's Coyote integration were not
sufficient to mitigate the impact of broader market demand
pressure. RXO's last-mile business has realized strong growth in
stops over the past five quarters, but not enough to offset
pressure in truckload brokerage. Moreover, its high-margin
automotive expedite-managed transportation business has softened
significantly from 2024. We now assume another year of even lower
profitability, including gross margins for 2025 at just over 16.0%,
down from about 17.0% in 2024 and 18.5% in 2023. This revision
follows a 90-basis-point sequential compression in third-quarter
brokerage gross margins to 13.5%, caused by an intensification in
regulatory actions--particularly non-domiciled commercial drivers
license cancellations and stricter enforcement of English-language
proficiency requirements--during late third-quarter-2025, leading
to some trucking capacity exiting and exerting upward pressure on
RXO's purchased transportation costs for the remainder of the
year.
"In our view, rating risk has increased due to the company's
sensitivity to modest underperformance to our earnings and cash
flow forecasts. There are no signs of an imminent freight market
recovery from the current downturn, which has lasted well beyond
what we (and the market) had anticipated. In the absence of
stronger demand, we believe RXO will have limited opportunities to
benefit from an increase in spot loads that offer higher margins
during strong market conditions. In addition, with purchased
transportation costs expected to rise further from continuation of
regulatory actions causing more trucking capacity to exit, we
anticipate profitability will remain pressured. We also consider
the potential for further downside to margins should upcoming
brokerage business contract renewals not yield adequate rate
increases amid the persistent demand-supply imbalances.
"There is a path for RXO to improve its credit profile. We estimate
the company will generate an FFO-to-debt ratio just above 20% by
year-end 2026, but with a limited downside rating buffer to
underperformance compared with our estimates. The bulk of
operational integration with Coyote is largely complete, and we
expect RXO to realize incremental cost synergies and incur
meaningfully reduced restructuring expenses that have constrained
its EBITDA in 2025. In addition, we also expect further
cost-containment measures recently identified by management to
further reduce costs and enhance operational efficiency.
Collectively, we believe these initiatives have the potential to
improve RXO's 2026 EBITDA and FFO by approximately $40
million–$45 million—taking FFO-to-debt ratio about 6 percentage
points above 2025 levels.
"We think RXO could capture meaningful upside when demand recovers.
The company's brokerage segment is currently composed of about 70%
contractual loads, with spot volumes representing the remaining
30%. We anticipate this mix to shift toward a higher proportion of
spot activity once freight demand improves, routing guides begin to
break, and elevated carrier rejection rates increase spot-market
sourcing. Such conditions typically prompt shippers to issue
special projects and mini-bids, which generally yield superior
gross margins per load. RXO is poised to benefit from this dynamic,
supported by its long-standing relationships with large enterprise
shippers and its continued servicing of contractual freight during
this period of weak demand--even at compressed margins--while
maintaining its load rejection rates below industry averages.
"The negative outlook reflects the risk that any further
deterioration in ongoing weak freight market conditions expected
for 2026 could offset the assumed reduction in RXO's cost base,
limiting the improvement in the company's credit measures to levels
we view as commensurate with the rating."
S&P could lower its ratings on RXO if it fails to restore its FFO
to debt to above 20% over the next 12 months. This could occur if:
-- Weak freight market conditions persist through 2026 with no
sign of improving;
-- The company incurs higher-than-expected integration and
restructuring costs to an extent that impede a recovery in its
earnings and cash flow; or
-- RXO pursues significant debt-funded acquisitions or shareholder
returns.
S&P could revise the outlook on RXO to stable if FFO to debt trends
above 20% and we expect it to reach and remain above that level.
This could occur if:
-- Modest improvement in freight market conditions that S&P views
as sustainable enable RXO to generate earnings and cash flow growth
from higher volumes and/or improved pricing; and
-- The company manages to reduce restructuring costs and
successfully realizes cost synergies as it operates with Coyote as
a unified entity.
SCHILLER PARK: Seeks to Extend Plan Exclusivity to Dec. 31
----------------------------------------------------------
Schiller Park Hospitality LLC asked the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for
the Northern District of Illinois to extend its exclusivity periods
to file a plan of reorganization and obtain acceptance thereof to
December 31, 2025 and March 1, 2026, respectively.
The instant bankruptcy proceeding was filed under Chapter 11 of the
Bankruptcy Code on January 30, 2025.
The Debtor explains that the new requested extension dates of
December 31, 2025, and March 1, 2026, are well within the time
limitations set by Section 1121(d) of the Bankruptcy Code.
The Debtor claims that the sale of its principal asset closed on
September 26, 2025 and was funded on September 29, 2025. The
extension of times for both deadlines will not prejudice any
creditors or the United States Trustee.

November 2025 Warrant shall expire five years from the date of its
issuance. The Exercise Price of the November 2025 Warrant shall be

Upon specified corporate events, the November 2025 Warrant holder
will thereafter have the right to receive upon an exercise such

In connection with the Special Meeting, TEGNA also solicited
proxies with respect to the adjournment of the Special Meeting, if
necessary or appropriate to solicit additional proxies if there
were insufficient votes to adopt the Merger Agreement at the time
of the Special Meeting. Given that there was a quorum present and
there were sufficient proxies at the time of the Special Meeting to
adopt the Merger Agreement, the proposal was not presented at the
Special Meeting.
Completion of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement
remains subject to the satisfaction of customary closing
conditions, including the receipt of certain regulatory approvals.
The transaction is expected to close by the second half of 2026,
subject to regulatory approvals and other customary closing
conditions.
Upon closing, TEGNA will become a subsidiary of Nexstar Media
Group, Inc., and its shares will no longer be traded on the New
York Stock Exchange.

TRAVEL + LEISURE: S&P Rates Proposed $870 Million Term Loan 'BB-'
-----------------------------------------------------------------
S&P Global Ratings assigned its 'BB-' issue-level rating (the same
as its long-term issuer credit rating) and '4' recovery rating to
Travel + Leisure Co.'s proposed $870 million term loan due 2029.
The '4' recovery rating indicates S&P's expectation for average
(30%-50%; rounded estimate: 45%) recovery for lenders in the event
of a default. The company intends to use the proceeds from this
offering to reprice its outstanding $870 million term loan.
All our existing ratings on Travel + Leisure Co. are unchanged.
ISSUE RATINGS--RECOVERY ANALYSIS
Key analytical factors
-- The company's senior secured credit facility comprises a $1
billion revolver and an $869 million outstanding term loan B due
2029. Travel + Leisure's capital structure also includes $650
million of senior secured notes due 2026, $400 million of senior
secured notes due 2027, $650 million of senior secured notes due
2029, $350 million of senior secured notes due 2030, and $500
million of senior secured notes due 2033.
-- S&P's 'BB-' issue-level rating and '4' recovery rating on the
proposed term loan reflect its expectation for average (30%-50%;
rounded estimate: 45%) recovery for lenders in the event of a
default.
-- S&P's simulated default scenario contemplates a payment default
in 2029 stemming from the loss of key exclusivity contracts in the
exchange business with timeshare operators and management contracts
with homeowner associations, an overall decline in the popularity
of timeshares as a vacation alternative, a severe economic downturn
and tightening of the consumer credit markets, and illiquidity in
the financial markets for timeshare securitizations and conduit
facilities. S&P assumes the company would reorganize following
default and use an emergence EBITDA multiple of 6.5x to value it.
-- S&P incorporates its standard assumption that the revolver is
85% drawn for the purposes of our hypothetical default scenario and
this recovery analysis.
Simulated default assumptions
-- Emergence EBITDA: $334 million
-- EBITDA multiple: 6.5x
-- Revolving corporate credit facility: 85% drawn at default
Simplified waterfall
-- Gross recovery value: $2.17 billion
-- Net recovery value for waterfall after 5% administrative
expenses: $2.06 billion
-- Obligor/nonobligor valuation split: 100%/0%
-- Total value available for senior secured debt: $2.06 billion
-- Estimated senior secured debt claim: $4.35 billion
--Recovery expectations: 30%-50% (rounded estimate: 45%)
Note: All debt amounts include six months of prepetition interest.

TRUTANKLESS INC: Narrows Net Loss to $918,110 in 2025 Q3
--------------------------------------------------------
Trutankless, Inc. filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange
Commission its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q reporting a net loss
of $918,110 for the three months ended September 30, 2025, compared
to a net loss of $3,420,112 for the three months ended September
30, 2024.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company reported
a net loss of $3,758,712, compared to a net loss of $4,908,865 for
the same period in 2024.
Net sales for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024,
were $223,950 and $179,701, respectively. For the nine months
ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, the Company had net sales of
$748,491 and $191,285, respectively.
As of September 30, 2025, the Company had $3,343,211 in total
assets, $12,668,576 in total liabilities, and $9,325,365 in total
stockholders' deficit.
The Company has not generated sufficient revenues from product
sales to provide sufficient cash flows to enable the Company to
finance its operations internally.
As of September 30, 2025, the Company had $32,622 cash on hand. On
September 30, 2025, the Company had an accumulated deficit of
$80,860,681.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company had cash
used in operations of $2,396,845. These factors raise substantial
doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern
within the next 12 months.
The Company's ability to continue as a going concern is dependent
on the Company's ability to generate revenues and raise capital.
Over the next 12 months, management plans to raise additional
capital and to invest its working capital resources in sales and
marketing in order to increase the distribution and demand for its
products. However, there is no guarantee the Company will generate
sufficient revenues or raise capital to continue operations.
If the Company fails to generate sufficient revenue and obtain
additional capital to continue at its expected level of operations,
the Company may be forced to scale back or discontinue its sales
and marketing efforts. The consolidated financial statements do not
include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is
unable to continue as a going concern.

report dated August 27, 2025, attached to the Company's Annual
Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, citing
that as of December 31, 2024, and December 31, 2023 (restated), the
Company had an accumulated deficit of $77,101,969, and $66,915,867
respectively. The Company has not established sufficient revenue to
cover its operating costs for the next 12 months. These factors
raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going

VIVAKOR INC: Noteholders Convert $180,467 to 2.92 Million Shares
----------------------------------------------------------------
Vivakor, Inc. on November 19, 2025 and November 20, 2025, received
Notices of Conversion from two noteholders converting an aggregate
of $180,467.07 of the principal amount and interest due under the
Notes into 2,920,639 shares of the Company's common stock.
Between May 14, 2025 and May 19, 2025, Vivakor, Inc. issued
convertible promissory notes, to several accredited investors, in
the aggregate principal amount of $575,000 in connection with a
Securities Purchase Agreement entered into by and between the
Company and the Holders. The Company received $500,000, before
fees.
Pursuant to the terms of the Note and the Holders' Notices of
Conversion, the Company issued the Holders' Shares. The Holders'
Shares were issued without a Rule 144 restrictive legend pursuant
to a legal opinion received by the Company and its transfer agent.
The issuances of the foregoing securities were exempt from
registration pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act
promulgated thereunder as the holder is an accredited investor and
familiar with the Company's operations.
About Vivakor, Inc.

as of June 30, 2025.

WCB REALTY: Seeks Cash Collateral Access
----------------------------------------
WCB Realty Company, LLC asks the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the
Northern District of Alabama, Southern Division, for authority to
use cash collateral and provide adequate protection.
The Debtor primarily generates income through property flipping and
rental income. However, prior to filing, the Debtor experienced
significant financial setbacks due to high interest rates on
short-term loans and a cooled mortgage market, which slowed its
property flipping operations and reduced revenue. In September
2024, the Debtor obtained a loan from CB&S Bank to purchase
property at 9000 Parkway East, Birmingham, Alabama, which was
secured by an Assignment of Rents and Leases and a UCC-1 filing,
giving the bank a purchase money security interest in the property
and associated records.
The Debtor seeks court authorization to use cash collateral to fund
ongoing business operations, pay ordinary and necessary
post-petition expenses, statutory fees, and fees of professionals
retained under sections 330 and 331.
As adequate protection for CB&S Bank's interests, the Debtor
proposes granting the bank a replacement lien on all post-petition
accounts and accounts receivable, deemed automatically perfected as
of the petition date, subordinate only to statutory fees and
allowed professional fees. The replacement lien ensures that the
bank's secured interests are maintained and protected from
diminution resulting from the Debtor’s use of cash collateral.
The Debtor asserts that without authority to use cash collateral,
it would be forced to cease operations, effectively ending any
prospects of reorganization.

WELCOME GROUP: Affiliate Seeks to Extend Cash Collateral Access
---------------------------------------------------------------
Dayton Hotels 2, LLC, an affiliate of Welcome Group 2, LLC, seeks
another extension from the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern
District of Ohio, Eastern Division at Columbus, to use cash
collateral.
The Debtor seeks court approval to continue using cash collateral
through March 16, 2026, pursuant to a revised cash collateral
budget to fund operations.
The Debtor previously obtained authorization to access cash
collateral under the court's November 19 order, which expires on
December 15. This order required the Debtor to pay $12,000 per
month to RSS WFCM2019-C50–OH WG2, LLC.
In its latest motion, the Debtor proposes to provide the RSS with
adequate protection, including replacement liens and adherence to
the revised budget, which maintains the required adequate
protection payments.
RSS, represented by Rialto Capital Advisors, LLC, is the Debtor's
secured lender. The lender has not yet consented to continued use
of its cash collateral and has an objection pending.

WEST TECHNOLOGY: S&P Alters Outlook to Neg., Affirms 'CCC+' ICR
---------------------------------------------------------------
S&P Global Ratings revised its outlook on Islandia, N.Y.-based
global technology service provider West Technology Group LLC to
negative from stable and affirmed its 'CCC+' issuer credit rating.
S&P said, "In addition, we lowered our issue-level rating on West's
first-lien debt to 'CCC+' from 'B-' and revised the recovery rating
to '3' from '2' to reflect weaker business prospects. The '3'
recovery rating indicates our expectation for meaningful (50%-70%:
50%) recovery in the event of payment default.
"The negative outlook reflects the potential for a lower rating if
we believe a default or restructuring is likely within the next 12
months."
West Technology Group LLC faces heightened competition, which has
pressured earnings and kept leverage elevated above 10x.
S&P said, "We believe it will be challenging for West Technology to
reduce leverage as earnings remain pressured. We revised our
forecast to account for lower earnings in TeleVox because of
intensifying competition and weaker-than-expected operating
performance for the first nine months of 2025. We now expect
organic earnings to decline roughly 40% in 2025. This is lower than
our previous estimate of about 3% growth. Competition intensified
with Epic Systems' health care appointments service and one-time
costs associated with the sale of its notified business. We believe
customers are migrating to Epic's singular service from West's more
feature-rich offering because of its less competitive price. In
2026, we believe earnings declines narrow to 5%-7% on the full
realization of its cost saving initiatives, lower one-time
restructuring expenses, and modest improvements at TeleVox as
volumes stabilize on pricing discounts.
"West's liquidity remains adequate. We believe the company's
balance sheet cash provides enough liquidity to support operations
over the next 12 months. West's free operating cash flow (FOCF) has
been pressured by declines in its TeleVox business as well as
restructuring and transformation expenses (including costs to
implement management's business optimization initiatives). We
expect the company's FOCF deficit will moderate to $60 million-$70
million in 2026, from roughly $100 million-$130 million in 2025 on
fewer one-time costs and modest improvements in operational
performance. Still, we believe it will be difficult for the company
to refinance its debt that comes due in 2027 if the company cannot
reduce leverage below 10x.
"The negative outlook reflects the potential for a lower rating if
we believe a default or restructuring is likely within the next 12
months.
"We could lower our rating on West if we believe it will face a
near-term liquidity shortfall or engage in a distressed exchange in
the next 12 months because financial metrics continue to weaken due
to continued operational underperformance.
"We could revise our outlook on West to stable if it can improve
its liquidity and extend its maturities. Although unlikely over the
next year, we could raise our rating on West if the company is able
to reduce leverage below 6.5x with positive FOCF and a credible
forward looking deleveraging path that provides more cushion to
absorb adverse business, financial and/or economic conditions."

Monday's edition of the TCR delivers a list of indicative prices
for bond issues that reportedly trade well below par. Prices are
obtained by TCR editors from a variety of outside sources during
the prior week we think are reliable. Those sources may not,
however, be complete or accurate. The Monday Bond Pricing table
is compiled on the Friday prior to publication. Prices reported
are not intended to reflect actual trades. Prices for actual
trades are probably different. Our objective is to share
information, not make markets in publicly traded securities.
Nothing in the TCR constitutes an offer or solicitation to buy or
sell any security of any kind. It is likely that some entity
affiliated with a TCR editor holds some position in the issuers
public debt and equity securities about which we report.
Each Tuesday edition of the TCR contains a list of companies with
insolvent balance sheets whose shares trade higher than $3 per
share in public markets. At first glance, this list may look like
the definitive compilation of stocks that are ideal to sell short.
Don't be fooled. Assets, for example, reported at historical cost
net of depreciation may understate the true value of a firm's
assets. A company may establish reserves on its balance sheet for
liabilities that may never materialize. The prices at which
equity securities trade in public market are determined by more
than a balance sheet solvency test.
On Thursdays, the TCR delivers a list of recently filed
Chapter 11 cases involving less than $1,000,000 in assets and
liabilities delivered to nation's bankruptcy courts. The list
includes links to freely downloadable images of these small-dollar
petitions in Acrobat PDF format.
Each Friday's edition of the TCR includes a review about a book of
interest to troubled company professionals. All titles are
available at your local bookstore or through Amazon.com. Go to
