Twinkies maker IBC moving headquarters to Dallas
10:26 PM CST on Wednesday, February 18, 2009
By KAREN ROBINSON-JACOBS / The Dallas Morning News
krobinson@dallasnews
The company that makes such household staples as Wonder Bread and Hostess Twinkies is moving its corporate headquarters to Dallas this spring to save money and find a few top executives.
Interstate Bakeries Corp., based in Kansas City, Mo., since 1930, will move 20 corporate positions to the Dallas area soon, spokesman Lew Phelps said Wednesday.
Most of the Dallas jobs – including chief executive – will be filled by transplanted Missourians. But a "small handful" will be filled locally, he said.
The company, which emerged from bankruptcy protection this month, settled on Dallas last week.
"There are a lot of people in and around Dallas that have the professional expertise that they need to get IBC firing on all cylinders and moving ahead," Phelps said.
He also said the company would save money with the move, but he could not detail how yet. He said the company did not get any government incentives and is not selling its headquarters building in Kansas City.
Dallas won't gain a lot of jobs with the move, but it does get bragging rights as the new home of one of the largest wholesale bakers and distributors in the United States.
The company, which also makes Dolly Madison Zingers and Donut Gems, has 41 U.S. bakeries and employs about 22,000 people. But it has no production facilities in Texas.
It filed for bankruptcy protection in 2004, burned in part by the low-carb craze, and emerged Feb. 3.
Phelps said the company will be looking for executives with experience in consumer packaged goods in North Texas. The area is home to Plano-based Frito-Lay Inc., the nation's largest snack maker, and the U.S. headquarters of Mexico-based Grupo Bimbo.
Grupo Bimbo, which makes Mrs Baird's bread, has a corporate office and baking facility in Fort Worth and a Tia Rosa tortilla plant in Grand Prairie. As of late 2008, the company had 1,225 workers in D-FW, a spokesman said.
Phelps said there are "no immediate plans to build any new production facilities in Texas or anywhere else" as the company tries to get back on track. He also said he did not foresee big growth in the headquarters' size anytime soon.
"This is not a big employment fair kind of thing," he said. "It's limited in scope."
He said the company already has begun holding interviews for the available Dallas slots.

Hooray, just what Dallas needs...more twinkies and ding dongs! HAHAHA (sigh), I kill me sometimes. What, a girl can't poke fun at her hometown? :)
For the record, before I get accused of being anti-Dallas, I grew up here and love this place. I just have a very dry sense of humor, and couldn't resist the temptation of associating humorously named cream-filled baked goods with some of our residents.
Have a pleasant day everyone!

Interstate Bakeries emerges from bankruptcy
Business Courier of Cincinnati
Wednesday, February 4, 2009
Interstate Bakeries Corp. on Tuesday emerged from four-and-a-half years of Chapter 11 bankruptcy.
This was just days before the Feb. 9 deadline when Kansas City-based IBC’s debtor-in-possession financing was to mature and its exit financing commitments were to expire.
The maker of Twinkies and Wonder Bread said in a release after the market closed on Tuesday that it had wrapped up financing to emerge from bankruptcy as a stand-alone company.
Interstate’s Butternut Breads division operates a bakery plant in Queensgate, as well as 16 Butternut and Wonder Bread/Hostess outlet stores in the Tri-State.
IBC had financing commitments from IBC Investors I LLC, an affiliate of private equity firm Ripplewood Holdings LLC, which was to provide $130 million of capital — $44.2 million for 4.42 million shares and $85.8 million in new fourth-lien convertible secured notes. Other commitments were for a $125 million revolving loan with General Electric Capital Corp. and GE Capital Markets Inc. and a $344 million term loan-secured credit facility with Silver Point Finance LLC and Monarch Master Funding Ltd.
“Today marks a new beginning for Interstate Bakeries,” CEO Craig Jung said in the release. “We are now a stronger and more competitive company. With this period behind us, we can now unleash and empower 22,000 IBC employees to better serve our consumers and customers, revitalize our core brands and launch product innovation that will profitably grow our business.”
All of IBC’s 423 union locals ratified revised labor agreements that allowed IBC the flexibility to adjust to the changing market, IBC said in the release. In addition, all of IBC’s secured lenders voted in favor of the reorganization plan, which a Kansas City bankruptcy court approved on Dec. 5 .
“I want to thank IBC’s employees for the sacrifices they have made and our union leaders for their commitment to our company and saving jobs,” Jung said in the release. “Their actions made possible the financing required to execute a business plan that will build competitive advantage and secure our company’s future.”
Although employees kept their jobs, shareholders wound up empty-handed as part of the emergence plan. In Tuesday filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, IBC canceled all its publicly traded shares.
Ripplewood officials said they were glad to see the deal close and hope to use IBC’s main bread and snack cake brands to position it for future success. As part of the exit financing deal, two industrial partners of Ripplewood — John Cahill and Greg Murphy — get seats on IBC’s board. Cahill is former CEO of The Pepsi Bottling Group Inc. (NYSE: PBG); Murphy is former CEO of Kraft Food Bakery Cos.

The company has gone private. It is a privately owned now and there is no public held stock there no need for stock symbal its in the bankruptsy plan and approved by the court
Well, they're not trading today. The filings said enough, IMO. I can't find the new stock symbol, though.
Scottrade is my broker and as time goes on I am thinking more and more about opening up another account with someone else. I am glad that IBC found investment capital to keep going with some 26,000 employees. They do have some very good people there. I worked for them a couple of years ago and was laid off when they closed down our branch office.
I called scottrade today, they didnt have any information.
Call your broke and find out what is going on. You may not be out of luck yet. If I owned this stock I would call to find out. Perhaps the private equity group will make some sort of purchase ?

There is no symbol, just this...

It's a Wonder: IBC emerges from bankruptcy [The Kansas City Star, Mo.]
02/03 07:41 PM
Feb. 3--After more than 4 1/2 years, the maker of Wonder Bread, Hostess Twinkies and a host of other iconic brands, has shed bankruptcy protection, preserving 22,000 jobs.
Interstate Bakeries Corp., announced that a $600 million financing plan has been finalized, giving control of the company to a New York investment fund, but leaving its management in place.
"Today marks a new beginning for Interstate Bakeries," Chief Executive Officer Craig Jung said in a statement. "We are now a stronger and more competitive company. With this period behind us, we can now unleash and empower 22,000 IBC employees to better serve our consumers and customers, revitalize our core brands, and launch product innovation that will profitably grow our business."
New York investment firm Ripplewood Holdings has majority control of the Interstate with an investment of $44.2 million in cash and $85.8 million in convertible debt. The other nearly 50 percent will be held by lenders who are helping finance operations once the company emerges from bankruptcy.
Interstate's 19,000 union employees were promised a future equity stake in the company if it grows, in exchange for concessions in pay, benefits and work rules. The Teamsters represent about 8,500 of Interstate's 22,000 workers. The Bakery, Confectionery, Tobacco Workers and Grain Millers Union represents about 8,200 Interstate workers and a host of other unions represent the rest.
Interstate filed for bankruptcy in September 2004.

Twinkies maker Interstate Bakeries exits bankruptcy
02/03 05:51 PM
NEW YORK, Feb 3 (Reuters) - Interstate Bakeries Corp (IBCIQ:$0.0060,$-0.0230,-79.31%) , the maker of Wonder Bread and Twinkies snack cakes, said on Tuesday it has emerged from bankruptcy after operating under court protection for more than four years.
Interstate, based in Kansas City, Missouri, filed for bankruptcy protection in September 2004, as a drop in sales and higher costs for ingredients, energy, health care and pensions led to a cash crunch.
Its reorganization plan was approved by the U.S. Bankruptcy Court in Kansas City in December, but its emergence was delayed several weeks as it renegotiated a critical credit agreement with lender GE Capital Corp <GE.N>.
During its bankruptcy protection, the company also revised labor agreements and altered its debt structure.
Under the reorganization plan, private equity firm Ripplewood Holdings will invest $130 million in the company and take it private. Ripplewood will own a 50 percent stake in the company.
Silver Point Finance is also providing $339 million to fund the company's bankruptcy exit, while a credit agreement with GE Capital will provide about $125 million. (Reporting by Emily Chasan; editing by Jeffrey Benkoe)

Assume is a bad word, IMO. I haven't seen anything that says these shares will be worthless. Why are these shares still trading? If they are to be worthless, then allowing it to trade these past four years, attaching PR's related to Wonder Bread/Hostess to the ticker seems misleading. JMO
What will happen to the commons here since Interstate Brands is emerging from chapter 11?
Am I correct in assuming that shares are now worthless, since they are exiting bankruptcy?
We can't NOT have Twinkies. Twinkies rule.
I think you and I are the only ones that care right now. For now...
This should go soon IMO!

Item 7.01. Regulation FD Disclosure.
As previously reported, on September 22, 2004, Interstate Bakeries Corporation (the “Company”) and each of its wholly-owned subsidiaries filed voluntary petitions for relief under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code (the “Bankruptcy Code”). The filings were made in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Western District of Missouri (the “Court”). On January 27, 2009, the Company filed with the Court as required by the Bankruptcy Code a consolidated monthly operating report for the four week period ended December 13, 2008 (the “MOR”).
The Company is required to file the MOR with the Bankruptcy Court and the U.S. Trustee pursuant to requirements under Local Rule 2015-2 C. The MOR should be read in conjunction with the Company’s second quarter fiscal 2009 Form 10-Q that was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on December 24, 2008, and the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal 2008 that was filed with the SEC on September 15, 2008.
The MOR is not audited and will not be subject to audit or review by the Company’s external auditors on a stand-alone basis at any time in the future. The MOR does not include quarterly and year-to-date adjustments reflected upon review of major asset and liability accounts prior to the Company’s filing of its quarterly and annual financial statements with the SEC. Due to the timing impact of the foregoing, results for this period as presented in the MOR are not necessarily indicative of the actual results for the period if all such matters were allocated to all periods in the quarter or year. Accordingly, the period reported in the MOR should not be viewed on a stand-alone basis, but rather in the context of previously reported financial results, including the Company’s SEC filings.
The information contained in the MOR is subject to additional qualifications and limitations as described in the Explanatory Notes to the MOR and readers are advised to read and consider such qualifications and limitations carefully. Accordingly, the Company cautions readers not to place undue reliance upon the information contained in the MOR. Readers are also cautioned to refer to the risk factors contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2008, as supplemented by the Company’s second quarter fiscal 2009 Form 10-Q, which address risks that could adversely affect our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. For these reasons, the financial information contained in the report furnished today is not indicative of the Company’s financial condition or operating results on a basis consistent with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States.
As reflected in the MOR, the Company reported net sales of $201.8 million for the four week period ended December 13, 2008. The Company’s net loss for the four week period ended December 13, 2008 was $11.3 million.
The Company reported cash of $19.3 million as of December 13, 2008. As of December 13, 2008 the Company had borrowed $110.9 million under its $309.0 million debtor-in-possession credit facility, which is subject to a borrowing base formula based on its level of eligible accounts receivable, inventory, certain real property and reserves. The credit facility was also utilized to support the issuance of letters of credit primarily in
support of the Company’s insurance programs. As of December 13, 2008, there were $149.1 million of letters of credit outstanding under the debtor-in-possession credit facility, which were partially collateralized by $21.1 million of restricted cash as shown on the MOR. The amount of the credit facility available for borrowing was $49.0 million as of December 13, 2008.
The foregoing description of the MOR is not intended to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the MOR attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated by reference herein.
The information in this Current Report on Form 8-K under the heading Item 7.01, “Regulation FD Disclosure,” including Exhibit 99.1, shall not be deemed “filed” for the purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or otherwise subject to the liability of that section, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference to such filing.
Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements and Other Matters
Some information contained in this Current Report on Form 8-K may be forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws. These forward-looking statements are not historical in nature and include statements that reflect, when made, the Company’s views with respect to current events and financial performance. These forward-looking statements can be identified by forward-looking words such as “may,” “will,” “expect,” “intend,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “plan,” “could,” “should” and “continue” or similar words. These forward-looking statements may also use different phrases.

This MOR should be read together and concurrently with the Company’s second quarter 2009 Form 10-Q that was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on December 24, 2008 and the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal 2008 filed with the SEC on September 15, 2008 for a comprehensive description of our current financial condition and operating results. This MOR is being provided to the Bankruptcy Court and the U.S. Trustee pursuant to requirements under Local Rule 2015-2 C.
2.This MOR is not audited and will not be subject to audit or review by our external auditors on a stand-alone basis at any time in the future. This MOR does not include quarterly and year-to-date adjustments reflected upon review of major asset and liability accounts prior to the Company’s filing of its quarterly and annual financial statements with the SEC. Due to the timing impact of the foregoing, results for this period as presented in the MOR are not necessarily indicative of the actual results for the period if all such matters were allocated to all periods in the quarter or year. Accordingly, each period reported in the MORs should not be viewed on a stand-alone basis, but rather in the context of previously reported financial results, including the Company’s SEC filings.
3.This MOR is presented in a format providing information required under local rule and incorporating measurements used for internal operating purposes, rather than in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) for interim financial information.

Interstate Bakeries lines up lending as important bankruptcy deadline draws near.
[The Kansas City Star, Mo.]
01/28 02:51 AM
Jan. 28--Interstate Bakeries Corp. is racing the clock to complete its post-bankruptcy financing plan after General Electric (GE:$13.54,00$0.48,003.68%) cut $20 million from the amount it is willing to lend the baker.
Interstate's current funding and all of the commitments it has for financing to operate the business upon emerging from bankruptcy expire in less than two weeks. The company needs court approval for the financing changes, and documentation must be rewritten, approved and signed.
Interstate and GE late Monday reached an agreement on a revolving loan that was needed for the wholesale baker to emerge from more than four years in bankruptcy. The agreement came after GE reduced the loan amount to $105 million, from the $125 million originally committed to in September.
Kansas City-based Interstate also agreed to pay additional underwriting fees and a higher interest rate.
As part of the negotiations, other lenders who have agreed to make a term loan to the maker of Wonder Bread and Hostess snacks increased their commitment to $354 million from $344 million.
In a court filing Monday night, the baker asked the bankruptcy court to approve the change in the financing terms. An emergency hearing is scheduled for Thursday.
Craig Jung, Interstate chief executive, said the company and its lenders were working diligently to complete the financing documentation.
"Given today's challenging credit markets, our road to emergence from Chapter 11 has been longer and more challenging than anticipated, but we have now reached the final stretch," Jung said in a statement. "While much work remains to be done to close our financing transactions, we believe that our accord with GE Capital has cleared the last significant obstacle to our emergence."
The loan from General Electric Capital Corp. and GE Capital Markets is part of a nearly $600 million package that would provide Interstate the capital and loans to operate its 41 bakeries and the rest of its business after bankruptcy.
The baking company, which filed for bankruptcy in September 2004, got court approval Dec. 5 for its reorganization plan but had to complete the details of the financing package it had negotiated in the fall.
Under the plan, New York investment firm Ripplewood Holdings has agreed to invest $44.2 million in cash and $85.8 million in convertible debt in Interstate. It will take a 50 percent equity stake in the reorganized company.
Silver Point Finance LLC and Monarch Master Funding Ltd, agreed to make a $344 million term loan, a sum they have now increased to $354 million.
------
By the numbers Interstate Bakeries Corp. on Tuesday filed a monthly financial operating report with the bankruptcy court showing it had an $11.5 million operating loss for the four weeks ending Dec. 13 on revenues of $201.2 million.
The company said as of Dec. 13, it had borrowed $110.9 million under its $309 million so-called debtor-in-possession credit facility.

UPDATE 1-Interstate Bakeries in "productive" talks with lender
01/16 10:07 PM
NEW YORK, Jan 13 (Reuters) - Interstate Bakeries Corp (IBCIQ:$0.0400,$0.0010,2.56%) , the bankrupt maker of Wonder Bread and Twinkies treats, said on Tuesday that it is in "productive discussions" with lender GE Capital Corp regarding a credit agreement that has been delaying its bankruptcy exit.
The company said it is working with the General Electric Co (GE:$13.17,00$-0.79,00-5.66%) unit to
finalize documentation for an asset-based revolving credit agreement and that it is hopeful the documentation will be finalized "in the very near future."
Once the agreement is finalized, the company said it is hopeful its
bankruptcy exit financing will close.
"All parties in the discussion are focused on the importance of
completing the transaction, in order to allow IBC to emerge from Chapter 11," the company said in a statement.
General Electric Capital Corp and GE Capital Markets agreed last year to
provide $125 million in revolving credit to the company.
Interstate Bakeries (IBCIQ:$0.0400,$0.0010,2.56%) is facing a Feb. 9 deadline on its
debtor-in-possession financing. The company had intended to emerge from its lengthy bankruptcy before the end of December.

Ripplewood buying shares at 12.50? What does this mean for shareholders? 4-Oct-08 10:26 pm sOct 04, 2008 (The Kansas City Star - McClatchy-Tribune Information Services via COMTEX) -- IBC | Quote | Chart | News | PowerRating -- Interstate Bakeries Corp. received court approval Friday to arrange delivery of some bread.
U.S. Bankruptcy Judge Jerry Venters gave the wholesale baking company permission to commit to nearly $600 million in financing agreements that will allow Interstate to finally emerge from more than four years of bankruptcy. The arrangements also will give a New York investment fund majority ownership in the newly restructured company.
But in tacking down the financial commitments, Interstate had to agree to chip in something for its unsecured creditors, who had been slated to get nothing under the reorganization.
Ripplewood Holdings has agreed to invest $130 million in Interstate, consisting of $44.2 million in cash and $85.8 million in convertible debt. In exchange, it will receive a 50 percent equity stake in the reorganized company. It also will get warrants to acquire an additional 15 percent stake at a price of $12.50 a share.
In addition, Silver Point Capital LP and three other lenders that together hold about $450 million, or 53 percent, of IBC's pre-petition secured debt have agreed to swap that for $147.3 million in notes and $85.8 million in debt. The debt would be convertible to a 33 percent stake in the new company.
The lenders also have agreed to a $339 million loan to help finance Interstate's exit from bankruptcy. That would supplement a $125 million revolving loan from General Electric Credit Corp. to further finance Interstate once it emerges from the protection of the bankruptcy court.
In exchange for the agreement to invest, Interstate would pay Ripplewood $6.5 million in fees and up to $6 million in expenses. The lenders on the $339 million loan would collect $16.5 million in fees. About $3.2 million of those fees will be due if the court approves the equity portion of the financing arrangement. A hearing on that is set for Oct. 22.
In its court filing, Interstate, which makes such iconic brands as Wonder Bread and Hostess Twinkies, called the financing agreement "a watershed moment" for the company and its 22,000 employees. Once the largest wholesale bread baker in the United States, it has closed more than a dozen bakeries and eliminated 10,000 jobs since falling into bankruptcy four years ago.
But to finally reach that watershed moment Friday, Interstate decided it was going to have to give if it expected to get.
Venters' approval came after Interstate and Ripplewood worked out a last-minute agreement with unsecured creditors, who are owed about $190 million.
The unsecured creditors tried to put up a roadblock to the financing agreement with a motion filed Monday. Its lawyers objected to the baking company's "absolute" commitment to pay Ripplewood millions of dollars in fees, while Ripplewood could pull out of the deal if Interstate's financial condition changed "materially."
IBC responded that the fees were appropriate and contended that "the objection should be viewed for what it is -- an effort to create leverage to get a settlement that provides some recovery to unsecured creditors."
And in that regard, the unsecured creditors' strategy worked.
Without providing details, lawyers for Interstate said it and Ripplewood agreed to give the unsecured creditors some cash and pay up to $890,000 in their expenses, plus other considerations.
In exchange, the unsecured creditors dropped their objection to the financing commitment and agreed to support the baking company's reorganization.
