Скачать или смотреть IG Design Group Americas Chapter 11 Deadline Looms Dec 26, 2025

IG Design Group Americas' dramatic restructuring culminates with a critical Chapter 11 deadline on December 26, 2025, in the US Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Texas. The company sold its massive US division for just one dollar, which quickly filed for bankruptcy, impacting creditors and equity holders. This complex breakup involved multiple buyers acquiring key brands like Perler beads, Burwick ribbons, and CR Gibson, while some operations were shut down entirely.

The parent company, IG Design Group, now focuses on its leaner, more profitable operations in Europe, the UK, and Australia. Despite a 13% revenue decline and a 56% plunge in operating profit, management remains optimistic about full-year guidance, citing 96% visibility on its order book. The company's strategic shift away from the US market reduces exposure to tariffs and logistics challenges, spotlighting Australia as a growth highlight with strong margins and revenue gains.

This podcast also explores the enormous social and financial costs of the restructuring, including 845 layoffs and a $150 million loss on the US division sale. With multiple new owners managing the fragmented brands, supply chain disruptions and quality control issues may emerge in early 2026, presenting potential risks for craft retailers dependent on these products. Investors should watch for the impact of this complex de-risking strategy in upcoming earnings reports.
