Major US pharmacy chain Rite Aid files for bankruptcy_我的网站

一 |     7月22日，数据分析软件公司Databricks的估值在短短五个月内飙升540亿美元，达到1880亿美元。    PHILADELPHIA -- Major U.S. pharmacy chain Rite Aid said Sunday that it has filed for bankruptcy and obtained $3.45 billion in fresh financing as it carries out a restructuring plan while coping with falling sales and opioid-related lawsuits. In 2022, Rite Aid settled for up to $30 million to resolve lawsuits alleging pharmacies contributed to an oversupply of prescription opioids. It said it had reached an agreement with its creditors on a financial restructuring plan to cut its debt and position itself for future growth and that the bankruptcy filing was part of that process. The plan will “significantly reduce the company's debt” while helping to “resolve litigation claims in an equitable manner,” Rite Aid said. In March, the Justice Department filed a complaint against Rite Aid, alleging it knowingly filled hundreds of thousands of unlawful prescriptions for controlled substances from May 2014-June 2019. It also accused pharmacists and the company of ignoring “red flags” indicating the prescriptions were illegal.The Justice Department acted after three whistleblowers who had worked at Rite Aid pharmacies filed a complaint. Jeffrey Stein, who heads a financial advisory firm, was appointed Rite Aid's CEO as of Sunday, replacing Elizabeth Burr, who was interim CEO and remains on Rite Aid's board. Earlier this month, Rite Aid notified the New York Stock Exchange that it was not in compliance with listing standards. During a grace period, the company's stock continues to be listed and traded. The bankruptcy filing in New Jersey and noncompliance with listing standards would not affect the company’s business operations or its U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission reporting requirements, it said. Rite Aid said it was arranging for payment of wages and other costs as usual, though some “underperforming” stores among its more than 2,100 pharmacies in 17 states will be closed. It earlier reported that its revenue fell to $5.7 billion in the fiscal quarter that ended June 3, down from $6.0 billion a year earlier, logging a net loss of $306.7 million.。         该公司于2026年7月16日签署了一份条款清单，计划进行一轮约30亿美元的融资，由现有投资者Coatue Management领投。         对于此次融资的原因，公司CEO Ali Ghodsi直言：公司的算力已严重告急。Ghodsi在接受CNBC采访时表示：“我们的GPU正在耗尽。”他强调，GPU短缺并非短期规划层面的挑战，而是当下正在切实制约业务运营的瓶颈。Databricks旗下开源AI模型托管业务的需求急剧攀升，已令多个地区的GPU容量告罄，此次融资因此成为维持正常运营的必要之举，而非单纯的扩张性融资。
