Vanguard Natural Resources Files For Chapter 11 Bankruptcy Protection
The oil and gas company went through a Chapter 11 bankruptcy organization in 2017, citing a highly leveraged capital structure using bank loans. Since the restructuring, the company has continued to encounter significant debt problems. In fact, the company’s debt is estimated at $655,000,000.00, and liquidity is approximately $39,100,000.00. Moreover, Vanguard Natural Resources has reported a $32,100,000.00 net loss for the third quarter of 2018.
Because of Vanguard Natural Resources’ current financial state, the company is at risk of defaulting on its outstanding loans. The company indicated that its possible failure to comply with credit terms is due to current commodity prices. Apparently, the company is negotiating with banks to get those credit terms amended.
Vanguard Natural Resources has reportedly made efforts to sell assets and use the proceeds to pay its existing obligations. In 2018, the company apparently sold $105,000,000.00 in non-core assets to reduce its debt. The company’s Chief Financial Officer, Ryan Midgett, stated that the firm’s divestment efforts are a “critical step.”
Vanguard Natural Resources stated that lenders will be able to pursue a number of remedies against the company if it defaults on its loan obligations. Those remedies include lenders’ adjusting the timing of debt repayments. However, the company stated that pressure from lenders could negatively affect the company’s operations and ability to address obligations. Indeed, the company revealed that those conditions could place the company in jeopardy of failing in as early as a year.
