Current report
We are subject to risks and uncertainties associated with the Chapter 11 bankruptcy proceedings of certain of our subsidiaries.
Current report
On June 30, 2026, our subsidiary, DISH DBS Corporation and certain of its subsidiaries (the “DISH DBS Filing Entities”), including DISH Wireless L.L.C. and its subsidiaries (the “DISH Wireless Filing Entities,” and together with the DISH DBS Filing Entities, the “Filing Entities”), commenced voluntary cases under chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code (the “Prepackaged Chapter 11 Cases”) in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Texas (the “Bankruptcy Court”), Houston Division, to pursue confirmation of a joint prepackaged plan of reorganization (the "Prepackaged Chapter 11 Plan") that restructures certain liabilities of DISH DBS and DISH Wireless. The Plan implements the terms of a Restructuring Support Agreement (the “RSA”) entered into on March 19, 2026 with creditors now holding more than 88% of DISH DBS’s secured and unsecured notes. Confirmation of the Prepackaged Chapter 11 Plan, the timing of emergence and consummation of the restructuring remain subject to approval by the Bankruptcy Court and satisfaction of applicable conditions. EchoStar Corporation is not a debtor in the Prepackaged Chapter 11 Cases, and certain subsidiaries and operating brands are not included in the proceedings. Nevertheless, the Prepackaged Chapter 11 Cases could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations, liquidity and prospects.
Current report
These specific risks include, but are not limited to, the following:
Current report
In addition, the Prepackaged Chapter 11 Cases may disrupt relationships with vendors, customers, regulators and other counterparties, may reduce vendor confidence, make it harder for us to attract new customers and contribute to customer churn across active businesses, including DISH TV and Sling TV, and may make it more difficult to attract and retain employees. Consummation of the Prepackaged Chapter 11 Plan will require the devotion of management attention, and expenses related to the Prepackaged Chapter 11 Cases could be higher than anticipated.
