Paragon

Auto supplier Paragon has filed for insolvency for three entities; 552 employees at six German sites are affected. An Indian investor, Tejascore Techsystems Inc., had pledged €12 million in writing but paid nothing, leading Paragon to suspect deliberate deception or fraud. Operationally, Paragon reports a profit and high order intake in its preliminary annual financial statement but is suffering from acute illiquidity; its products include the retractable mechanism for the Rolls-Royce radiator mascot Spirit of Ecstasy. Management expects operations to continue under provisional insolvency administration, while the share and bond have lost significant value. » More on t-online.de

Management expects business operations to continue after a provisional insolvency administrator is appointed. » More on finanzen.net
