In addition to contributing to the U.S. Space Development Agency’s (SDA) Proliferated Warfighter Space Architecture (PWSA) Tranche 1 and Tranche 2 programs, Mynaric has also been recognized as a key development partner in Phase 2 of DARPA’s Space-BACN program, and has been selected by both the European Space Agency (ESA) to investigate optical technologies for next generation high-throughput optical inter-satellite links and the German government to contribute to multiple projects to develop quantum communication capabilities.

Establishing a Stable Financial and Operational Footing Moving Forward

Mynaric’s lenders agreed to the restructuring concept on the condition that Mynaric initiates StaRUG proceedings and that the restructuring plan provides for a capital reduction to zero.

“The aim of the StaRUG proceedings is to create a fresh start for Mynaric without affecting our operational model or manufacturing processes. By reducing the debt burden and recapitalizing the balance sheet, Mynaric can invest in high-tech advancements, maintain competitive pricing and secure our position as an industry leader.”

- Andreas Reif, Chief Restructuring Officer of Mynaric

To enable Mynaric to cover its expected ongoing operational and working capital until the conclusion of the StaRUG proceedings, Mynaric’s lenders committed a fourth bridge loan of USD 28 million in February 2025 as well as an additional USD 25 million restructuring loan, giving Mynaric the necessary resources to support its production plan and ongoing operations.

The implementation of the financial restructuring through the StaRUG proceedings would safeguard jobs, protect creditor interests, and significantly reduce Mynaric’s cash interest burden.
