CURRENT PROGRESS ON VALUE MAXIMIZATION PLAN
- Expected to be substantially complete with the ecommerce wind down by the end of the first quarter 2024
- ~$94.0 million cash and cash equivalents as of February 29, 2024
- Sold substantially all of our used vehicle inventory
- Repaid outstanding balance on Ally Floorplan Facility
- Reducing our outstanding commitments and executing a reduction-in-force commensurate with our reduced operations
Tom Shortt, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, said “As we previously announced, in January 2024 Vroom’s Board of Directors approved a Value Maximization Plan pursuant to which the Company has discontinued its ecommerce operations and is winding down its used vehicle dealership business. I am incredibly proud of the commitment and professionalism demonstrated by our team as they execute an orderly wind down of our ecommerce operations with a focus on timeliness and cost effectiveness. We anticipate that the wind-down will be substantially complete by the end of the month and look forward to working to maximize stakeholder value through our remaining businesses, United Auto Credit and CarStory.”
(1) While the Value Maximization Plan was approved in January 2024, we determined a triggering event existed as of December 31, 2023 related to our long lived assets, which led to additional write-downs of inventory in the fourth quarter of 2023. |
