Hughes Satellite Systems Files for Chapter 11 Bankruptcy Protection
Hughes Satellite Systems Corporation earlier announced that it and certain of its U.S. subsidiaries, including Hughes Network Systems, LLC, have filed voluntary chapter 11 petitions in the Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Texas, Houston Division to facilitate a financial and operational reorganization. This reorganization will allow the company to address its maturing secured and unsecured debt, strengthen its capital structure, and accelerate its ongoing transformation into an enterprise, government, and defense-focused business-all while continuing to serve its customers. Hughes has sufficient liquidity to fund its operations in the near-term and will seek to use its existing cash as it works to right-size the company's balance sheet. EchoStar Corporation, EchoStar's non-Hughes subsidiaries, and Hughes Satellite Systems Corporation's international subsidiaries are not included in Hughes' chapter 11 filing. Hughes' chapter 11 filing has no impact on EchoStar's other operations, employees or brands, including DISH TV, Sling TV, and Boost Mobile.
