Regulation FD Disclosure.
|
As previously disclosed, on September 20, 2020 (the “Petition Date”), the Company and certain of its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Debtors”) each filed a voluntary petition for relief under chapter 11 of title 11 of the United States Code (the “Bankruptcy Code”) in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York (the “Bankruptcy Court”). The Debtors’ chapter 11 cases (the “Chapter 11 Cases”) are being jointly administered under the caption “In re Garrett Motion Inc., 20-12212.”
On November 20, 2020, the Debtors jointly filed a monthly operating report for the period from October 1, 2020 to October 31, 2020 (the “Monthly Operating Report”) with the Bankruptcy Court. A copy of the Monthly Operating Report is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference. This Current Report on Form 8-K (including exhibits hereto) will not be deemed an admission as to the materiality of any information that is required to be disclosed solely by Regulation FD. The Monthly Operating Report and other filings with the Bankruptcy Court related to the Chapter 11 Cases are available electronically at www.kccllc.net/garrettmotion. This website address contains third-party content and is provided for convenience only. Third-party content is the responsibility of the third party, and the Company disclaims liability for such content.
The information furnished pursuant to this Item 7.01, including Exhibit 99.1, shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) or otherwise subject to the liabilities under that Section and shall not be deemed to be incorporated by reference into any filing of the Company under the Securities Act of 1933 or the Exchange Act.
Cautionary Information Regarding the Monthly Operating Report.
The Company cautions investors and potential investors not to rely upon the information contained in the Monthly Operating Report, which was not prepared for the purpose of providing the basis for an investment decision relating to any of the securities of the Company. The Debtors have prepared the Monthly Operating Report solely for the purpose of complying with the monthly reporting requirements of the Bankruptcy Court. The Monthly Operating Report is not presented on a consolidated basis and therefore does not present the consolidated results of the Company and its subsidiaries. In addition, only certain subsidiaries of the Company are Debtors, while other subsidiaries of the Company are not Debtors. The Monthly Operating Report is limited in scope, covers a limited time period, was not audited or reviewed by independent accountants, was not prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), may not accurately reflect the condition of the Company or the other Debtors on a GAAP basis, is in a format prescribed by applicable bankruptcy laws or rules, is subject to future revision, adjustment and reconciliation, and should not be viewed as indicative of future results. The Monthly Operating Report also contains information for periods shorter and otherwise different from those contained in the Company’s reports required to be filed pursuant to the Exchange Act.
Forward-Looking Statements
This Current Report on Form 8-K and the exhibit hereto may contain “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. All statements, other than statements of fact, that address activities, events or developments that the Company or the Company’s management intend, expect, project, believe or anticipate will or may occur in the future are forward-looking statements. Although the Company believes forward-looking statements are based upon reasonable assumptions, such statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties, and other factors, which may cause the actual results or performance of the Company to be materially different from any future results or performance expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Such risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to those described in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, as updated by the Company’s quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the period ended September 30, 2020, as well as the Company’s other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, under the headings “Risk Factors” and “Cautionary Statement Concerning Forward-Looking Statements.” You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this document. Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance, and actual results, developments and business decisions may differ from those envisaged by the Company’s forward-looking statements.
