STRYQ Market cap 555k after chp 11 195 million ; Under the Plan, Starry will implement a comprehensive financial restructuring that will delever its balance sheet by approximately US$195 million while providing capital through a new exit facility that will allow the Company to complete an operational pivot toward, and enable further investment in, existing core markets
Starry Group Holdings, Inc. (Starry or the Company), a fixed wireless broadband internet service provider, received confirmation by the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware of the Company’s Plan of Reorganization (the Plan) following an uncontested hearing. Starry plans to emerge from chapter 11 later this year after receiving FCC approval of the transaction contemplated by the Plan and the satisfaction of other administrative conditions precedent to Plan effectiveness.
Starry’s fully consensual Plan was confirmed with the support of 100% of the Company’s prepetition lenders, a significant majority of unsecured creditors, and the creditors’ committee – and in 95 days after the Company’s chapter 11 filing. Under the Plan, Starry will implement a comprehensive financial restructuring that will delever its balance sheet by approximately US$195 million while providing capital through a new exit facility that will allow the Company to complete an operational pivot toward, and enable further investment in, existing core markets. Upon emergence from chapter 11, the successful stand-alone reorganization will mark one of the first of its kind for a deSPAC public company.
Latham & Watkins LLP represents Starry as restructuring counsel with a cross-practice team led by Los Angeles partners Jeff Bjork and Ted Dillman and Chicago partner Jason Gott, with Washington, D.C. counsel Chris Craige and Los Angeles counsel Jeffrey Mispagel and associates Nicholas Messana, Markus von der Marwitz, Ben Roth, and Kevin Shang. The bankruptcy litigation team was led by Los Angeles partner Amy Quartarolo, with associates Nathan Saper, Keith Williams, and Hanna Kostamaa. Advice was also provided on corporate matters by New York partner Justin Hamill and Bay Area partner Chad Rolston, with New York counsel Ben Kaplan and associate Anika Amin; on finance matters by New York partners Stephanie Teicher and Ipek Seniz Yakut, with associate Qinhan (Eric) Luo; on tax matters by Chicago partner Joseph Kronsnoble, with associate Derek Gumm; and on regulatory matters by Washington, D.C. partner Elizabeth Park.

Starry Files Voluntary Chapter 11 Petitions To Reorganize, Backed By Restructuring Support Agreement With Lenders
02/21/2023
Starry’s customer operations in its five core markets continues uninterrupted through the restructuring process.
BOSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Starry Group Holdings, Inc., a licensed fixed wireless technology developer and internet service provider, and its U.S. affiliates and subsidiaries (the “Company” or “Starry”) today announced that they have filed voluntary petitions for relief under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware (the “Court”) and have entered into a Restructuring Support Agreement (the “RSA”) with lenders holding the Company’s debt.
The RSA contains agreed-upon terms for a pre-packaged financial restructuring plan (the “Plan”) that is expected to significantly reduce the Company’s debt, optimize the Company’s capital structure and liquidity, and ultimately, better position Starry for success. Starry’s customer and network operations during this restructuring process will continue as normal within its five core operating markets: Boston, New York City, Los Angeles, Denver and Washington, DC. The Company plans to move swiftly through the restructuring process.
“Over the last several months, we’ve taken steps to conserve capital and reduce costs in order to put Starry in the best position to explore various financing paths for the company,” said Chet Kanojia, Starry’s Chief Executive Officer. “Our next step in this journey is to continue to strengthen our balance sheet through a Chapter 11 restructuring process.”
Kanojia added, “With the support of our lenders, we feel confident in our ability to successfully exit this process as a stronger company, well-positioned to continue delivering an affordable, high-quality broadband experience to our customers. The Restructuring Support Agreement provides us with the funding needed to continue operating as normal, through this restructuring process and as we guide the company to profitability. We have a strong and experienced team in place and look forward to moving through this process quickly so that we can continue expanding essential broadband access and #HappyInterneting to more communities across the country.”
The Company has filed various “first day” motions with the Court requesting customary relief, including a motion for approval of a $43 million debtor-in-possession (“DIP”) financing facility that is expected to provide Starry with the necessary liquidity to continue its normal business operations and meet its post-filing obligations to its employees, customers and vendors.
Pursuant to the RSA, the Company anticipates closing on a debt-for-equity restructuring with the lenders but will first conduct a marketing and auction process to identify any other potential bidders for its business. Starry has filed motions seeking Court approval of bidding and auction procedures.
Starry Will Continue to Operate as Normal
Starry will continue to serve existing and new customers in its five core markets, delivering affordable, high-speed broadband services across communities in Boston, New York City, Los Angeles, Denver and Washington, DC. Starry’s transparent and simple ‘no tricks’ pricing and world-class customer care will continue to be foundational elements of the customer experience that has distinguished the company as a leader in customer satisfaction among internet service providers. Starry ended 2022 with an average 61 NPS. Additionally, Starry will continue to support and expand access to its digital equity program, Starry Connect, which specifically serves consumers living in public and affordable housing communities, and will continue to make available the federal government’s Affordable Connectivity Program benefit to eligible households.

Think it will bounce back after the "restructuring"?
Hope it has one last bounce in it.
Bought a few at .028 a week ago..bad decision.
Looking to add a few just in case.
Yeah, amazing fall. From promising start up that hit $11 a share, to bankruptcy and .005 a share in about 8 months.
WOW ipo last June at $8 ...NYE...amazing.
I thought they could make it till May, before announcing. I bailed at .02 when it looked like it wouldn't hold. Not sure if someone will try to run this from down here before the shares are gone.
bankrupt or RS is common nowadays
STRY changed to STRYQ, bankruptcy:

Starry Group Holdings Inc Class A Common Stock
Bought some today...its a crapshoot .Risk to reward .
im holding bullshit as well cheers
we've been around long time its all bullshit
Well this cycle was way worse than I had hoped. Instead of hoping to break back above .04, we are now hoping to break back over .03!
Not going to be a good start. We ended the day yesterday at .035 x .036, with .03 being the LOD. Right now in pre, it's .0311 x .033. Hopefully, .03 can hold again today.
Mine too for sure.
This stock is testing my patience lol
I am saying night stalker jinxed us, lol. Looks like we have entered a new f'n cycle now. 1. Hope that .03 holds, 2. then hope we can break .04, 3. then break .04, 4. then hope for a clean break of .045 area, etc.
Yes, decent week last week, hopefully we get a repeat this week. Not looking that way today though.
I guess getting above .045 by .0001 did not mean much. Back to snooze mode, lol.
Yep. At least it’s heading in the right direction
Yes, barely. Still it's the first time above .045 in weeks. .05 is the next hurdle, and then of course .06, which is the highest it got on the last run up.
on 06 break
Yep. Back to sleep.
IMO, if it breaks .045, yes! $STRY
No, no pending RS
growing company high debt
No idea. Not into this one really...........
Z
As of September 30, 2022: $231 million.
how about the debt ratio
how bad is the debt
Cutting more workforce, saving more cash. Looks like they are not thinking of bankruptcy. Good news. $STRY
