BlockBeats News, October 21st, according to Cointelegraph, Argo Blockchain's largest creditor Growler Mining will take over this troubled cryptocurrency mining company through a "debt-to-equity" swap, leaving existing shareholders with only a tiny portion of the company's equity.
According to restructuring documents filed under the UK Companies Act, Growler will convert around $7.5 million of secured debt into equity and provide new funding in exchange for a post-restructuring 87.5% stake in Argo.
Argo's $40 million unsecured bondholders will collectively receive a 10% stake, while existing shareholders will retain only a 2.5% stake. This court-supervised restructuring scheme, named "Project Triumph," aims to avoid bankruptcy and retain the company's Nasdaq listing status.
