Chapter 11 Filing of ApplianceSmart, Inc.

On December 9, 2019, ApplianceSmart filed a voluntary petition (the “Chapter 11 Case”) in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York (the “Bankruptcy Court”) seeking relief under Chapter 11 of Title 11 of the United States Code (the “Bankruptcy Code”). The bankruptcy affects Live Ventures’ indirect subsidiary ApplianceSmart only and does not affect any other subsidiary of Live Ventures, or Live Ventures itself.  As part of the Chapter 11 process, ApplianceSmart expects to work with its lenders and creditors to restructure and or settle secured and unsecured indebtedness.  

ApplianceSmart expects to continue to operate its business in the ordinary course of business as debtor-in-possession under the jurisdiction of the Bankruptcy Court and in accordance with applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code and the orders of the Bankruptcy Court. In addition, the Company reserves its right to file a motion seeking authority to use cash collateral of the lenders under the reserve-based revolving credit facility.

The case is being administrated under the caption In re: ApplianceSmart, Inc. (case number 19-13887). Court filings and other information related to the Chapter 11 Case are available at the PACER Case Locator website for those registered to do so or at the Courthouse located at One Bowling Green, Manhattan, New York 10004.

The Company will continue to consolidate ApplianceSmart as ApplianceSmart remains under the control of management and not the Bankruptcy Court. ApplianceSmart maintains its ability to operate under the normal course of business throughout the bankruptcy proceedings. The Company will continue to evaluate any triggering events that indicate a loss of control that may result in deconsolidation.
