Meyer Burger in talks with bondholders to inject fresh capital
Adds details and background paragraph 3 onwards
Oct 31 (Reuters) -Swiss solar panel maker Meyer Burger MBTN.S said on Thursday it has entered advanced negotiations with a group of holders of its convertible bonds maturing in 2027 and 2029 to inject fresh capital into the business and restructure existing liabilities under certain convertible bonds.
The company also said it now expects annual sales of around CHF 350 to CHF 400 million and earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA) of around CHF 70 million from 2026.
Meyer Burger's ability to continue operating as a going concern assumes a successful restructuring and closure of its financing efforts in the very short term as well as the implementation of its business plan, it said in its half-year report, published on Thursday.
The company also plans to obtain additional liquidity through the sale of solar modules from existing inventories and other assets that are no longer required.
Earlier in August, Meyer Burger halted plans to build a plant in Colorado, further delayed its financial results and said it was drawing up a restructuring plan, sending shares down more than 50%.
In September, it said that its CEO and CFO were leaving the firm and that it would cut around 200 jobs as a part of its restructuring program.
Meyer Burger previously said it has suffered from market distortion caused by production overcapacity in China and trade restrictions imposed by India and the U.S.
