Gardenburger was a public company and one of the leading producers and marketers of meat- alternative products. Suffering from a revenue decline, an increasing debt burden, the decline of the meat-alternative product category, and increased competition, Gardenburger retained SulmeyerKupetz as its reorganization counsel. The firm assisted Gardenburger in obtaining and implementing a commitment for debtor in possession and exit financing with new lenders. Gardenburger’s plan of reorganization was approved within 5 months of the commencement of its Chapter 11 case and under its plan, Gardenburger was converted from a public company to a private company (eliminating substantial related expense) and approximately $30,000,000 in debt was eliminated.
