Optimum Communications, Inc. (OPTU)
The company now
Optimum Communications added two directors on 28 October 2026 and set up a special committee of the two, the company reported in a Form 8-K 1.
The committee has been delegated authority to evaluate, negotiate and recommend potential strategic and financial transactions, including financing, restructuring, reorganization or recapitalization 1. Light Reading noted the company did not say whether that includes a sale of the company 10.
On 16 September 2026 the audit committee concluded that earlier financial statements should no longer be relied on, because the company had failed to recognize non-cash deferred tax benefits tied to two impairment charges 2.
The restatement is expected to reduce previously reported net losses by about $430 million for 2025 and about $720 million for the first quarter and first half of 2026 2. It will not change revenue, cash or EBITDA 2.
The company is scheduled to post third-quarter results on 6 November and will not host a call, Light Reading reported 10.
The latest quarterly report, for the period ended 30 June 2026, said substantial doubt exists about the company's ability to continue as a going concern 4. It cited $4.1 billion of debt due in April 2027 and $2.2 billion in July 2027 4.
