Spirit Airlines sounds the alarm on its future ability to stay in business

NEW YORK (AP) — Just months after emerging from Chapter 11 bankruptcy, Spirit Airlines is warning about its future ability to stay in business. Spirit Aviation Holdings, the budget carrier's parent company, says it has 'substantial doubt' about its ability to continue as a going concern within the next year — which is accounting-speak for having the resources needed to sustain operations. In a quarterly report issued on Monday, Spirit pointed to 'adverse market conditions" that it's continued to face despite recent restructuring and other efforts to revamp offerings. That includes weak demand for domestic leisure travel, which Spirit said persisted in the second quarter of its fiscal year — among other challenges and 'uncertainties in its business operations' that the Florida-based company expects to continue 'for at least the remainder of 2025.' Known for its no-frills, low-cost flights on a fleet of bright yellow planes, Spirit has struggled to bounce back to profitability and boost resources to compete with rivals since the COVID-19 pandemic. Rising operation costs and mounting debt eventually led the company to seek bankruptcy protection in November. By the time of that Chapter 11 filing, the airline had lost more than $2.5 billion since the start of 2020. When Spirit emerged from bankruptcy protection in March, the company successfully restructured some of its looming debt obligations and secured new financing for future operations. Spirit has continued to make other cost-cutting efforts since — including plans to furlough about 270 pilots and downgrade some 140 captains to first officers in the coming months. Those furloughs and downgrades, both announced in July, are set to go into effect Oct. 1 and Nov. 1 to align with Spirit's 'projected flight volume for 2026,' the company noted in its quarterly report. They also follow previous furloughs and job cuts taken before the company's bankruptcy filing last year. Despite these and other cost-cutting efforts, Spirit on Monday stressed that it needs more liquidity. As a result, the company said it may also sell certain aircraft and real estate. Spirit's aircraft fleet is relatively young, which has made the airline an attractive takeover target over the years. But such buyout attempts from budget rivals like JetBlue and Frontier were unsuccessful both before and during the bankruptcy process. Spirit's shares tumbled more than 40% Tuesday morning, with the company's stock trading at just over $1.80 as of around 11 a.m. ET.

Grealish looks to reignite his career after joining Everton on a season-long loan deal from Man City

LIVERPOOL, England (AP) — England midfielder Jack Grealish will look to reignite his career after joining Everton on a season-long loan deal from Manchester City on Tuesday. The 29-year-old Grealish, one of the poster boys of English soccer, became the country's most expensive player after a 2021 move from Aston Villa to City for 100 million pounds (then $139 million). He was a regular pick in City's historic 2022-23 season when the team won the Champions League, Premier League and FA Cup. However, Grealish has fallen out of favor over the last two seasons, not even making City's squad for the recent Club World Cup, and has chosen to move to Everton for a season ahead of the 2026 World Cup in North America. 'I'm over the moon to have signed for Everton - it's massive for me, honestly,' Grealish said. 'This is a great club, with great fans." The loan switch removes not only a high-earner from City's wage bill but also one of the many attacking midfielders built up in City's stacked squad. Grealish often had a free, roaming role when making his name at Villa, but had to be more disciplined and restricted as a left-sided forward in City manager Pep Guardiola's system of play. Everton manager David Moyes will try to get the best out of Grealish again, with the team's first match of the Premier League season at Leeds on Monday. 'As soon as I spoke to the manager, I knew there was only one place that I wanted to go,' Grealish said. ___

CloudCover Receives Growth Investment from Argentum to Accelerate Global Expansion

Irvine-based CloudCover, a provider of third-party maintenance and IT lifecycle management solutions powered by its cloud-based platform, announced a growth investment from Argentum, a New York-based growth equity firm. The investment will support CloudCover's continued expansion into global markets and accelerate the development of its platform, CoverIT, a service operations platform that enables more efficient and scalable third-party maintenance across the IT ecosystem. 'CloudCover has reached a pivotal point in its growth journey,' said Jeff Huggins, founder and chief executive of CloudCover, in a statement. 'The opportunity to lead the third-party maintenance and IT lifecycle management markets through technology innovation is massive and accelerating. Argentum is the right partner to help us scale, without compromising the culture, vision or execution that got us here.' Huggins will continue to lead the company as chairman and CEO and remain the majority shareholder after the investment. New York-based Argentum partners with founder-led B2B software and technology-enabled services companies to accelerate growth, fund acquisitions and generate shareholder liquidity. It fills the gap between venture capital funds and later-stage private equity firms by targeting capital-efficient companies that are not seeking a change in control. Argentum has invested in over 100 companies and supported more than 200 add-on acquisitions. DLA Piper advised Argentum on its strategic growth investment in CloudCover.
