WW International (OTC:WGHTQ), Inc. (NASDAQ:WW) has filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy, as reported in a recent SEC filing. The company, previously known as Weight Watchers International Inc., entered voluntary prepackaged bankruptcy proceedings on May 6, 2025, in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware. This move is aimed at implementing a financial restructuring plan for the company’s secured debt. Investors using InvestingPro had access to comprehensive financial health indicators and risk metrics that could have helped identify potential warning signs leading up to this development.
On May 9, 2025, Nasdaq informed WW International of its decision to delist the company’s common stock due to the bankruptcy filing. Consequently, trading of the company’s stock on Nasdaq was suspended on May 16, 2025. The stock now trades on the Pink Current Market under the symbol "WGHTQ," operated by OTC Markets Group. The delisting from Nasdaq will be finalized 10 days after Nasdaq files a Form 25 with the SEC, while deregistration under Section 12(b) of the Securities Exchange Act will be effective 90 days after the filing, or sooner if determined by the SEC.
On May 30, 2025, WW International modified its Restructuring Support Agreement (RSA) with creditors. The amendment eliminates the option for creditors to choose between senior secured term loans and senior secured notes for their New Takeback Debt. All New Takeback Debt will now be issued as senior secured term loans, with other terms of the RSA remaining unchanged.
The company has also filed an amended reorganization plan and a plan supplement with the bankruptcy court. These documents include technical modifications and reflect the changes to the New Takeback Debt option.
WW International cautions that trading in its securities during the bankruptcy proceedings is speculative and poses significant risks. The company expects equity holders may face substantial losses if the amended plan is confirmed.
