Goodrich focused on TMS, Haynesville, Eagle Ford
Goodrich Petroleum Corporation’s (OTCQX: GDPP) common stock commenced trading today on the OTCQX market under the trading symbol GDPP.
Goodrich President Robert C. Turnham said in a statement, “We are very pleased to have the opportunity to trade on OTCQX and see this as an important step towards increasing shareholder liquidity and investor visibility of our company, pending our listing on a national securities exchange.”
In April, 2016, Goodrich voluntarily filed for reorganization under Chapter 11, aiming to eliminate approximately $400 million in debt from its balance sheet. The management team remained, allowing operations to continue as normal throughout the court-supervised financial restructuring process, including the payment of royalty and operating expenses.
On Oct. 12, 2016, the company emerged from bankruptcy with the same assets. It received $40.0 million in new capital through the issuance of Convertible Second Lien Senior Secured Notes due 2019.
In a press release the company said $20 million of the new capital was used to pay down outstanding borrowings under its previous senior credit facility to $20 million, which is now the outstanding principal amount of its new senior secured credit facility led by Wells Fargo Bank, National Association as administrative agent. The Company also has $20 million in cash from the new capital to fund initial development of its Haynesville Shale drilling program.
Upon emerging Goodrich said its board of directors is comprised of Walter G. Goodrich and Robert C. Turnham, Jr., existing directors, together with new directors Ronald F. Coleman, Eugene I. Davis, K. Adam Leight, Timothy D. Leuliette and Thomas M. Souers.
The existing common stock was cancelled, and its new common stock was subsequently issued to the second lien notes claim holders, unsecured notes claim holders, general unsecured claim holders and management, the company said.
