- Marelli Holdings Co. Ltd., a Japanese auto parts manufacturer, initiated a Chapter 11 bankruptcy case in the U.S. District Court for Delaware on June 11, 2025, aiming to restructure its debt and improve its financial standing.
- Marelli sought this protection after unsuccessful restructuring attempts since 2022, facing $7.6 billion in debt and severe tariff impacts on its import/export business.
- The company employs over 50,000 people worldwide, operates 170 facilities, supplies major carmakers like Nissan and BMW, and secured a $1.1 billion debtor-in-possession financing commitment.
- Marelli CEO David Slump stated that filing for Chapter 11 bankruptcy will allow the company to improve its financial structure by turning debt into equity, a plan that has received backing from 80% of its lenders as part of a broader restructuring effort.
- The restructuring aims to deleverage debt, maintain uninterrupted operations, and transfer ownership effectively to Strategic Value Partners, providing liquidity for growth and innovation.
