New Filing - Scout Media Holdings Inc.

Scout Media Holdings Inc.

  • 12/8/16 Recap: Digital sports media company files a responsive chapter 11 to an earlier involuntary filing with an unsustainable balance sheet and various litigations listed as the causes. There's some juicy inferences here about the former CEO perhaps not adhering to his fiduciary duties as they relate to uses of liquidity. The filing supports attempts to sell the business and/or wind-down the business in an orderly manner with the support of a $6.2mm DIP Facility.
