What happened

Adam Neumann launched WeWork in 2010 to sublease office space.

A 2019 funding round led by SoftBank valued it at $47 billion; its first attempt to go public that year failed and Neumann was ousted.

It began trading on the NYSE as WE on Oct 21, 2021, after merging with the blank-check company BowX.

In Sept 2023 it did a 1-for-40 reverse stock split to try to keep its NYSE listing.

It filed for Chapter 11 on Nov 6, 2023, listing $18.65 billion of debts against $15.06 billion of assets.

After the NYSE moved to delist it, the stock traded on OTC Pink as WEWKQ from Nov 8, 2023.

It emerged on June 11, 2024 after renegotiating more than 190 leases and leaving more than 170 locations; the old shares were cancelled.

After it emerged, a Yardi Systems affiliate owned 56.1% of the new stock.

Cause: Chapter 11 over costly leases. Once valued at $47 billion. Filed 6 Nov 2023.
