JLM Couture, Inc. (OTC Markets: JLMC), an upscale, multi-label wedding gown design and manufacturing company, announced today that it plans to file for restructuring. This option, available to JLM Couture, is specifically designed for smaller businesses with limited debt, ensuring they can safeguard their assets and continue operations.
The primary motivators for this decision stems from external challenges including the actions of Hayley Paige Gutman and pressure from legacy creditors, including potential liability stemming from New York City landlord-tenant issues aggravated by the pandemic.
In light of these challenges, the decision to file for restructuring emerged as “the most strategic move to protect our valued operations and assets,” said a company spokesperson. The Company expects to voluntarily file for reorganization under Subchapter V of Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code. Operations will continue as usual throughout the court-supervised process, including efforts to meet customer expectations and needs.
Given that JLM Couture has no significant bank debt and is actively working out a restructuring plan with its trade vendors and professional creditors, JLM Couture remains committed to delivering top-tier designs to its clientele and is hopeful that this restructuring will fortify its position and enable the Company to return to a position of strength in the wedding gown industry.
