Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Wolfspeed, Inc. released unaudited pro forma financial information that shows how its results would look after its prepackaged plan of reorganization, adoption of fresh start accounting on September 29, 2025, and receipt of required regulatory approvals on January 29, 2026.

The pro forma reflects settlement of a $292.1 million liability-classified forward equity contract through equity, reclassification of a $87.9 million embedded conversion feature on New Renesas 2L Convertible Notes and $31.5 million of Renesas warrants from liabilities to equity, and issuance of about 43,564,315 shares of new common stock.

Using a discounted cash flow approach, Wolfspeed estimated enterprise value at $2,600.0 million and implied common equity value at $569.1 million as of the effective date. Pro forma net losses were $372.0 million for the six months ended December 28, 2025 and $1,213.4 million for the year ended June 29, 2025, or $8.52 and $27.85 per share, respectively.

Insights

Wolfspeed’s pro forma shows heavy losses but a reset capital structure built around its reorganization plan.

Wolfspeed presents pro forma results that combine its confirmed Chapter 11 plan, fresh start accounting, and January 29 2026 regulatory approvals. The company estimates enterprise value at $2,600.0 million, supporting an implied common equity value of $569.1 million at emergence and total stockholders’ equity of $757.1 million.

Capital structure changes are substantial. A liability-classified forward equity contract of $292.1 million, an embedded conversion feature on New Renesas 2L Convertible Notes of $87.9 million, and Renesas warrants of $31.5 million are all reclassified into equity after approvals, alongside issuance of about 43.6 million new common shares.

Profitability remains a concern in the pro forma view. Net loss is $372.0 million for the six months ended December 28, 2025 and $1,213.4 million for the year ended June 29, 2025, or $8.52 and $27.85 per share. Significant interest expense on new debt and large non‑cash adjustments from fresh start accounting drive much of the gap between enterprise value and current earnings power.

Exhibit 99.1

UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL INFORMATION

Basis of Presentation

The following unaudited pro forma consolidated financial information and explanatory notes for Wolfspeed, Inc. along with its wholly owned subsidiaries (collectively, “Wolfspeed”, “the Company”, “we”, “us” and “our”) is provided for informational purposes only and gives effect to (i) our prepackaged plan of reorganization (the “Plan”), which became effective on September 29, 2025 (the “Plan Effective Date”), (ii) our adoption of fresh start accounting on the Plan Effective Date, in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 852, “Reorganizations” (“ASC 852”), and (iii) receipt of Regulatory Approvals, as defined below, which occurred on January 29, 2026. The unaudited pro forma consolidated statements of operations for the six months ended December 28, 2025 and for the year ended June 29, 2025 reflect the effects of these transactions as if the Plan Effective Date, application of fresh start accounting, and receipt of Regulatory Approvals had occurred on July 1, 2024, the beginning of the most recently completed fiscal year. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein have the meanings given to them in the Plan.

The unaudited pro forma consolidated balance sheet as of December 28, 2025 is not presented because the application of fresh start accounting in connection with the Plan is fully reflected, and the effects of the receipt of Regulatory Approvals are easily understood. The receipt of Regulatory Approvals results in the issuance of the Renesas Base Consideration Shares (defined below) and the corresponding derecognition of the Forward Equity Contract (defined below), the reclassification of the embedded conversion feature of the New Renesas 2L Convertible Notes (defined below) from liability classification to equity classification, and the reclassification of the Renesas Warrant (defined below) from liability classification to equity classification, along with the recognition of a contingent gain for the Contingent Cash (defined below), each of which are described in further detail below.

The Plan was confirmed by the Bankruptcy Court on September 8, 2025, and became effective on September 29, 2025. As a result of the application of fresh start accounting and the effects of the implementation of the Plan, the consolidated financial statements after September 29, 2025 will not be comparable with the consolidated financial statements as of or prior to that date. The unaudited pro forma consolidated statement of operations and the accompanying explanatory notes (together, the “Pro Forma Financial Statements”) have been prepared in accordance with Regulation S-X Article 11 and reflect preliminary estimates of the transaction accounting adjustments, including the accounting and the classification for the consummation of the transactions contemplated in the Plan, the application of fresh start accounting, and the receipt of Regulatory Approvals.

The Pro Forma Financial Statements presented herein are provided for informational and illustrative purposes only and are not necessarily indicative of the financial results that would have been achieved had the events and transactions occurred on the dates indicated, nor is such financial data necessarily indicative of the results of operations in future periods. The Pro Forma Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the historical Wolfspeed consolidated financial statements and notes for the year ended June 29, 2025 and the quarterly period ended December 28, 2025.

The Plan and Receipt of Regulatory Approvals

The Plan settlements constitute a good faith, full and final comprehensive compromise and settlement of substantially all claims, interests and controversies described in the Plan based upon the unique facts and circumstances of the Chapter 11 Cases. As set forth in the Plan, “Regulatory Approvals” means (a) Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (“CFIUS”) approval; (b) clearance or approval under antitrust laws in (i) the United States, (ii) Austria, (iii) Germany, (iv) Japan, and (v) European Commission (as applicable); (c) clearance or approval under Italy Foreign Investment Laws; (d) regulatory approvals from any regulatory regimes necessary to consummate the restructuring transactions (for the avoidance of doubt, in relation to the Regulatory Approvals, for Renesas to receive the New 2L Renesas Convertible Notes (as defined below); 16,852,372 shares of New Common Stock; the Renesas Warrants (as defined below); and voting, board seat, and other governance rights in accordance with the Restructuring Support Agreement), that are identified by Renesas and of which the Debtors are notified within thirty (30) calendar days following the effective date of the Restructuring Support Agreement; and (d) any regulatory approvals from any regulatory regimes necessary to consummate the restructuring transactions that are not identified by Renesas and of which the Debtors are not notified within thirty (30) calendar days following the effective date of the Restructuring Support Agreement. As of January 29, 2026 all Regulatory Approvals had been obtained.


The Pro Forma Financial Statements reflect the following transactions and treatment of claims contemplated in the Plan, which occurred on or before the Plan Effective Date, along with the receipt of Regulatory Approvals:

 

   

Senior Secured Notes Claims – Senior Secured Notes claimholders received on account of their claims: (a) $1.3 billion principal amount of New Senior Secured Notes due 2030, (b) a payment from the redemption of $277.5 million in principal amount of Existing Senior Secured Notes at a redemption price of 109.875% in addition to accrued and unpaid interest, totaling $308.5 million, funded through proceeds from a rights offering and cash on hand, and (c) certain commitment fees totaling $10.5 million, subject to certain conditions. The notes are guaranteed by the Company’s subsidiaries and secured by substantially all of the Company’s and guarantors’ assets. The callable nonconvertible notes were valued under the income approach using Black Derman Toy (BDT) lattice to capture issuer call behavior, with a fair value of $1,379.4 million.

 

   

Convertible Notes Claims – Convertible Notes claimholders received on account of their claims: (a) rights to participate in the rights offering of new 2.5% Convertible Second-Lien Senior Secured Notes due 2031 (“New 2L Convertible Notes”) in the aggregate principal amount of approximately $301.1 million, which were offered at a purchase price of 91.3242% totaling $275.0 million, and fully backstopped by certain holders of Wolfspeed’s previously existing Convertible Notes, and for which such backstop parties received a premium in the amount of $30.3 million for a total principal value of $331.4 million, with a fair value of $500.2 million, (b) approximately $296.4 million in new 7.00%/12.00% Second Lien Senior Secured PIK Toggle Notes due 2031 (“New 2L Takeback Notes”), with a fair value of $229.6 million, and (c) 24,533,760 shares of New Common Stock. The New 2L Convertible Notes and New 2L Takeback Notes are guaranteed by the Company’s subsidiaries and secured on a second-priority basis by substantially all of the Company’s and guarantors’ assets. The convertible notes were valued using an industry standard binomial lattice model, which maximizes holder value and minimizes issuer obligation at each node. Of the fair-market value of the $500.2 million of New 2L Convertible Notes, $168.8 million is considered a substantial premium and classified as equity, with the remainder being liability-classified. The Company capitalized $8.0 million of issuance costs associated with the New 2L Convertible Notes. The callable nonconvertible notes were valued under the income approach using Black Derman Toy (BDT) lattice to capture issuer call behavior.

 

   

Renesas Claims – Renesas Electronics America Inc. (“Renesas”) received on account of their claims: (a) a principal amount of approximately $203.6 million of new 2.5% Convertible Second-Lien Senior Secured Notes due 2031 (“New Renesas 2L Convertible Notes”), with a fair value of $216.3 million, (b) a warrant to purchase up to 4,943,555 shares of New Common Stock at an exercise price of $23.95 per share (“Renesas Warrants”), which became exercisable on January 29, 2026, upon receipt of Regulatory Approvals, and (c) 16,852,372 shares of New Common Stock from the Share Reserve (“Renesas Base Consideration Shares”), as defined in the Plan (“Forward Equity Contract”), the issuance of which was subject to Regulatory Approvals.

The Forward Equity Contract was originally liability-classified and initially recorded at $371.1 million, using the implied equity value multiplied by the common stock percentage represented by the 16,852,372 shares. Upon receipt of Regulatory Approvals, the shares that were issued to satisfy the equity contract were recognized at fair value as of the approval date to extinguish the Forward Equity Contract. Accordingly, the Company settled the liability-classified Forward Contract of $292.1 million as of January 29, 2026 and recognized the amount as equity in connection with the receipt of Regulatory Approvals.

The New Renesas 2L Convertible Notes were valued using an industry-standard binomial lattice model that maximizes holder value and minimizes issuer obligation at each node. The fair value was liability-classified and included an embedded conversion feature, which is remeasured to fair value each reporting period until receipt of Regulatory Approvals and was initially recorded at $94.5 million. Upon receipt of Regulatory Approvals, the conversion feature of $87.9 million qualified for equity-classification and was reclassified to equity based on the fair value as of the approval date.

The Renesas Warrants were originally liability-classified and measured to fair value each reporting period, with an initial fair value of $33.6 million. The warrants were valued using the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model. Upon receipt of Regulatory Approvals, the Renesas Warrants of $31.5 million qualified for equity-classification and were reclassified to equity based on their fair value as of the approval date.

 

   

Termination of a Material Definitive Agreement – The Company terminated its existing indentures governing the 2026 Notes, 2028 Notes, 2029 Notes, and Existing Senior Secured Notes, as well as the Customer Refundable Deposit Agreement with Renesas, in connection with the issuance of the New Senior Secured Notes, New 2L Convertible Notes, New Renesas 2L Convertible Notes, and New 2L Takeback Notes.

 

   

Existing Equity Interests—All outstanding shares of Old Common Stock were cancelled, and existing equity holders received approximately 1,306,896 shares of New Common Stock.


   

Contingent Shares – If Regulatory Approvals had not been obtained prior to the Regulatory Trigger Deadline, as defined in the Plan, Renesas would have received an additional 871,287 shares of New Common Stock from the Share Reserve. However, if Regulatory Approvals were received by the Regulatory Trigger Deadline, existing equity holders would receive their pro rata portion of the 871,287 shares of New Common Stock from the Share Reserve. The obligation to issue the Contingent Shares was classified as equity and initially recorded at $19.2 million, using the implied equity value multiplied by the common stock percentage represented by the 871,287 shares. Upon the receipt of Regulatory Approvals, these amounts were recorded as shares issued to holders of Old Common Stock and increased the total shares outstanding.

 

   

Contingent Cash – On the Plan Effective Date, the Company transferred $15.0 million into escrow (“Contingent Cash”), pursuant to the Contingent Cash Escrow Agreement, as defined in the Plan. If Regulatory Approvals were not obtained prior to the Regulatory Trigger Deadline, the Contingent Cash was to be distributed to Renesas. However, as Regulatory Approvals were received by the Regulatory Trigger Deadline, the Contingent Cash was distributed (i) $10.0 million to Wolfspeed and (ii) $5.0 million to Senior Secured Note claimholders. The $10.0 million cash was treated as a gain contingency and reflected in non-operating income, net, upon receipt of Regulatory Approvals.

The Company issued a total of approximately 43,564,315 shares of New Common Stock, inclusive of shares issued to existing holders and Renesas. Additionally, while the Plan contemplates distribution of equity awards by the Company under a long-term incentive plan and a management incentive plan, any such awards are subject to approval by the Board of Directors, which did not occur prior to the Plan Effective Date. The Pro Forma Financial Statements do not reflect any adjustments related to the granting of these awards.

Fresh Start Accounting

In connection with our emergence from bankruptcy and in accordance with ASC 852, we qualified for and adopted fresh start accounting on the Plan Effective Date because (i) the holders of existing voting shares of the Predecessor Company received less than 50% of the voting shares of the Successor Company, and (ii) the reorganization value of the assets immediately prior to confirmation of the Plan was less than the post-petition liabilities and allowed claims. References to “Successor” relate to the Company’s financial position and results of operations after the Plan Effective Date. References to “Predecessor” refer to the Company’s financial position and results of operations on or before the Plan Effective Date.

In accordance with ASC 852, with the adoption of fresh start accounting, we allocated the reorganization value to the Company’s assets and liabilities. The reorganization value represents the fair value of the Successor Company’s assets before considering liabilities.

As set forth in the Plan filed with the Bankruptcy Court, the enterprise value of the Wolfspeed Successor company was estimated to be between $2,350 million and $2,850 million as of the Effective Date. Based on the estimates and assumptions discussed below, the Company estimated the enterprise value to be $2,600 million for financial reporting purposes, which is the mid-point of the range of the enterprise value per the Plan. The enterprise value was estimated using an income approach that utilizes a discounted cash flow (DCF) model. The net cash flows were discounted using an after-tax weighted average cost of capital, or WACC, methodology reflecting a rate of return that would be expected by a market participant. The WACC also takes into consideration a company specific risk premium reflecting the risk associated with the financial projections used to estimate future cash flows. The present value of future expected net cash flows projected through 2034 is calculated using an estimated discount rate of 20.1%.

The enterprise value and corresponding equity value are dependent upon achieving the future financial results set forth in our projections. All estimates, assumptions, valuations and financial projections, including the fair value adjustments, the estimated enterprise value and estimated equity value, are inherently subject to uncertainties and the resolution of contingencies beyond our control. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that the estimates, assumptions, valuations and financial projections will be realized, and actual results could vary materially. Moreover, the value of Wolfspeed’s shares subsequent to the Plan Effective Date may differ materially from the implied values assumed in the Pro Forma Financial Statements.

The intent of the Pro Forma Financial Statements is to illustrate the effects of the Plan and receipt of Regulatory Approvals based on the underlying economic factors as of the Plan Effective Date. Refer to the quarterly report on Form 10-Q for additional information.

Our estimate of the fair value of our identified tangible and intangible assets utilizing a combination of the income, market and cost approaches, as described further below.

The income approach was the primary method utilized to estimate our intangible asset values. The intangible asset valuations utilize the forecasts that were relied upon to estimate the enterprise value. Where applicable, the forecasts were allocated to the Power Devices and Materials product lines to separately value intangible assets specific to each. For certain assets (off-market leases) and liabilities (above-market contracts), the forecasts utilized were based on those cash-flows specific to the asset / liability valued. The valuation of the intangible assets included the use of various methods of the income approach including the relief-from-royalty method, multi-period excess earnings method, and cash differential method.

Our inventory, personal property, real property, and construction in progress were valued using a combination of the market and cost approaches. The market, or sales comparison in reference to real property, approach measures value based on what other purchasers in the market have paid for assets that can be considered reasonably similar to those being valued. When the market approach is used, data is collected on the prices paid for reasonably similar assets and adjustments are made to the prices paid to compensate for differences between those assets and the asset being valued. The application of the market approach results in an estimate of the price reasonably expected to be realized from the sale of the asset or business interest. Adjustments to reflect differences between the asset being valued and the comparable assets include but are not limited to condition, performance, expected economic benefits, time and terms of sale, utility and physical characteristics.

The cost approach is based on the premise that a prudent investor would pay no more for an asset than its replacement or reproduction cost. The cost to replace the asset would include the cost of constructing a similar asset of equivalent utility at prices applicable at the time of the valuation analysis. This estimate may then be adjusted by losses in value attributable to obsolescence (physical, functional or economic). In valuing tangible assets, the value of an asset is estimated by reference to the reproduction or replacement cost new of modern equivalent assets, optimized for over-design, overcapacity and redundant assets, and adjusted to reflect losses in value attributable to physical, functional, and economic obsolescence.

Transaction Accounting Adjustments

Unless otherwise indicated, U.S. dollar amounts are stated in millions.

Transaction Accounting Adjustments to the Pro Forma Unaudited Consolidated Statements of Operations

The adjustments included in the Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Statements of Operations reflect the effects of the transaction accounting adjustments, including the transactions contemplated by the Plan, as well as fair value and other required adjustments resulting from the adoption of fresh start accounting, as though Regulatory Approvals had been received on July 1, 2024.

 

  (1)

Reflects the elimination of reorganization items that were directly attributable to the Chapter 11 reorganization for the six months ended December 28, 2025. The Company also incurred restructuring charges during the six months ended December 28, 2025 and for the year ended June 29, 2025, in connection with the 2025 Restructuring Plan consisting of a headcount reduction and facility closure and consolidation plan intended to optimize its cost structure. In addition, pre-petition bankruptcy-related charges of $55.8 million were incurred for the year ended June 29, 2025, which are not applicable to the Successor and are not expected to recur.

 

  (2)

Reflects the adjustment to interest expense related to the issuance of New Senior Secured Notes, New 2L Takeback Notes, New 2L Convertible Notes, and New Renesas 2L Convertible Notes. The pro forma adjustments to interest expense were calculated as follows:

(a)

Reflects the adjustment to capitalized interest based on pro forma outstanding debt and pro forma interest expense for the period.

 

  (3)

Reflects the pro forma adjustments to non-operating income related to the mark-to-market fair value impact on the Forward Equity Contract, embedded conversion feature for the New Renesas 2L Convertible Notes, and the Renesas Warrants. These amounts are eliminated as these liability-classified instruments were reclassified to, or exchanged for, equity-classified instruments following the receipt of Regulatory Approvals and therefore are no longer marked to market through the income statement.

 

  (4)

Reflects the pro forma adjustment to income tax expense (benefit) related to the change in deferred tax liability and cancellation of tax-related accumulated other comprehensive loss as a result of implementation of the Plan and the adoption of fresh start accounting.

 

  (5)

Reflects the pro forma adjustment to non-operating income related to the $10.0 million of Contingent Cash which was remitted back to the Company upon receipt of Regulatory Approvals and was treated as a non-recurring contingency gain.

 

  (6)

(a)

The adjustment reflects the decrease in fair value and estimated useful lives of property and equipment, net, with depreciation recognized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives.

(b)

The adjustment reflects the increase in fair value and estimated useful lives of identified intangible assets subject to amortization, with amortization recognized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives.

(c)

The adjustment reflects the amortization expense for all unfavorable contractual lease terms when compared to market, with amortization recognized on a straight-line basis over the remaining lease term.

(d)

The adjustment reflects the portion of the fair value change to inventory which would be expensed during the six months ended December 28, 2025 and the year ended June 29, 2025, respectively.

 

  (7)

Reflects changes to the classification of factory start-up costs of $85.2 million for the year ended June 29, 2025 had the accounting policy been adopted upon the Plan Effective Date and effected as of July 1, 2024. Historically, factory start-up costs have been reported within operating expenses. Upon emergence from bankruptcy, the Company made an accounting policy election to classify factory start-up costs within cost of revenue. This policy change has no impact on operating loss.

 

  (8)

Reflects the pro forma net loss per share calculated using the weighted average Wolfspeed, Inc. shares of common stock outstanding, assuming the impacts of the Plan were effective and Regulatory Approvals were received on July 1, 2024.

FAQ

What did Wolfspeed (WOLF) disclose in this 8-K filing?

Wolfspeed disclosed unaudited pro forma consolidated financial information showing how its results would appear after its prepackaged reorganization plan, fresh start accounting on September 29, 2025, and all required regulatory approvals obtained on January 29, 2026, including related capital structure changes.

How large are Wolfspeed’s pro forma net losses in the new financials?

Pro forma net loss is $372.0 million for the six months ended December 28, 2025 and $1,213.4 million for the year ended June 29, 2025. On a per‑share basis, those losses are $8.52 and $27.85, respectively, based on pro forma weighted average shares outstanding.

What enterprise value does Wolfspeed assign to the post-reorganization company?

Wolfspeed estimates enterprise value at $2,600.0 million as of the plan effective date, using an income-based discounted cash flow approach with a 20.1% discount rate. This supports an implied common equity value of $569.1 million and total stockholders’ equity of $757.1 million at emergence.

How did the Renesas arrangements affect Wolfspeed’s equity and liabilities?

Upon receiving regulatory approvals, Wolfspeed issued Renesas Base Consideration Shares, extinguishing a $292.1 million forward equity contract. It also reclassified an $87.9 million embedded conversion feature on New Renesas 2L Convertible Notes and $31.5 million of Renesas warrants from liabilities to equity, plus recognized a contingent cash gain.

How many new Wolfspeed shares are reflected in the pro forma capital structure?

The company reports issuing approximately 43,564,315 shares of new common stock, including shares to existing holders and Renesas. Pro forma weighted average common shares outstanding are 43,671 thousand for the six months ended December 28, 2025 and 43,564 thousand for the year ended June 29, 2025.

What interest expense changes are shown in Wolfspeed’s pro forma results?

Pro forma adjustments add interest expense from new senior secured and second‑lien notes while reversing historical interest. Net pro forma interest expense change is $59.3 million higher for the six months ended December 28, 2025 and $262.8 million lower for the year ended June 29, 2025 compared with historical figures.

How does fresh start accounting impact Wolfspeed’s reported results?

Fresh start accounting revalues assets and liabilities to fair value as of the plan effective date, changing depreciation, amortization, and inventory-related expenses. For example, cost of revenue is reduced by $35.8 million on a six‑month pro forma basis and $105.1 million on the year, with related shifts in operating expenses.
