Medtech Firm Surgalign Files for Chapter 11 Protection

Submitted by jhartgen@abi.org on

Beleaguered U.S. medical technology company Surgalign Holdings SRGA.O filed for a voluntary chapter 11 bankruptcy yesterday, Reuters reported. Surgalign filed for the bankruptcy with estimated assets and liabilities in the range of $50 million to $100 million in the Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Texas. The Deerfield, Ill.-based company said in March that it had reduced its workforce by about 20% and cut non-essential spending, and realigned resources. In November last year, the company approved a corporate restructuring plan, which included discontinuing some of its lower-performing units as well as intending to continue its brand and product rationalization programs.
