National R.V. Holdings, Inc. Announces Chapter 11 Bankruptcy Filing
PERRIS, Calif., Nov. 30 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- National R.V.
Holdings, Inc. (Pink Sheets: NRVH) (the "Company") today announced that the
Company and National R.V., Inc., its wholly-owned subsidiary, filed
voluntary petitions under the provisions of Chapter 11 of the United States
Bankruptcy Code in the United States Bankruptcy Court, Central District of
California, Riverside Division. The Company has taken these actions after
determining that seeking Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection is in the best
interests of the Company, its creditors, stockholders and other interested
parties in light of ongoing financial challenges and the inability to
adequately fund operations and obligations. The Company is a
debtor-in-possession under the jurisdiction of the Bankruptcy Court and in
accordance with the applicable provisions of the Code and orders of the
Court.
Dave Humphreys, the Company's Acting Chief Executive Officer, stated,
"We are saddened to let go our excellent employees, especially so close to
the Holidays, and even more so because National's motorhomes have never
been better than they are today. After evaluating our options, however, we
ultimately determined that seeking protection in bankruptcy was in the best
interests of creditors and shareholders."
