A Transformational MomentThis is a positive development — and transforma-tional moment — in the history of Intelsat, as we are using our financial restructuring process as a mechanism for investment and growth.
Some companies embark upon a restructuring process unclear about a chosen path or an end goal. That is not the case here.
Our financial restructuring is an opportunity to enhance our liquidity and emerge with a strength-ened balance sheet to complement our strong operating model and future growth plans.
Positioning for Long-Term SuccessEnabling us to:
• Move forward with our intent to clear C-band spectrum on an accelerated timeframe
• Enhance our liquidity and address our legacy debt burden
• Surpass customer expectations with investment into cutting-edge services and technologies
What Does this Mean for You?Intelsat’s day-to-day operations, engagement with
customers and partners, and capital investments will
continue as usual.
Customers
Our focus will remain on serving customers and collabo-
rating with business partners with the same level of
excellence.
Vendors
We will continue to rely on our important vendor network.
Our vendors will be paid in the ordinary course for all
go-forward goods and services.
Employees
Our workforce — relied upon by thousands of organiza-
tions serving billions of people worldwide — is central to
our valuable customer and vendor relationships. We are
retaining our employees and no change in the workforce
is planned.
Emerging StrongerMany well-known companies
have used Chapter 11 to
“reset” and emerge stronger.
To name a few:
• General Motors
• American Airlines
Intelsat General (IGC), which
serves the Company’s U.S.
commercial, government, and
Allied military customers, is
not part of the Chapter 11
proceedings.
A S T R O N G E R T O M O R R O WIntelsat has decided to initiate a financial restructuring process, which will position the Company
to invest and pursue our strategic growth objectives, build on our strengths, and serve the
mission-critical needs of our customers with additional resources and wind in our sails.
U N D E R S T A N D I N G O U R F I N A N C I A L R E S T R U C T U R I N G P R O C E S SChapter 11 is a legal process that allows a company to restructure its finances while continuing
to operate as usual. It is orderly, proven, and provides an opportunity to emerge stronger.
“Business as usual” with ongoing excellent customer service across all business units
Access to new, significant financing
It means… It does NOT mean…
