Press release
Q.CELLS: Creditors give the go-ahead for continuation
Bitterfeld-Wolfen (Germany), 18 July 2012 - The creditors of insolvent
photovoltaic company
Q-Cells SE have unanimously approved that the company is to be continued.
Insolvency administrator Henning Schorisch thus has the backing from the
creditors to further pursue his plans. He will maintain operations of
Q.CELLS and to drive forward a potential restructuring option, either via
an investor solution or an insolvency plan.
The creditors of Q-Cells SE met today in Dessau-Rosslau, where they were
invited by the insolvency court to the first creditors' meeting in the
ongoing insolvency proceedings. At this first report meeting, the
insolvency administrator informed the creditors on the status quo of the
insolvency proceedings and submitted proposals concerning the further
course of the insolvency proceedings for decision. Moreover, Schorisch was
unanimously confirmed in his office as insolvency administrator. The work
carried out so far by the relevant parties was acknowledged as having been
extremely successful.
'The backing of the creditors is an important signal indicating that the
company can be rescued,' Henning Schorisch emphasized today in
Dessau-Rosslau. 'After all, it shows the creditors' belief in Q.CELLS'
future.'
The investor process has already been initiated. Details about the names,
types or origins of potential buyers are not communicated, however, as all
parties are obliged to maintain confidentiality. At the same time, the
option of restructuring the company by way of implementing an insolvency
plan is reviewed.
Q-Cells SE filed for insolvency on 3 April 2012. In the months prior to
this date, the legal basis for the planned financial restructuring was
withdrawn due to a decision made by the Oberlandesgericht Frankfurt (Higher
Regional Court, Frankfurt/Main). Germany's photovoltaic industry is exposed
to considerable and further increasing price pressure, mainly originating
from Asian competitors. As a consequence, quite a few companies in the
industry were forced to file for insolvency in recent months.
