WEB Conns Declares Bankruptcy Amidst Economic Challenges
Chapter 11 Bankruptcy Filing

Factors Contributing to Bankruptcy
Several factors have contributed to WEB Conns' bankruptcy filing: high interest rates, changing consumer demand, and the lingering debt accumulated during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Store Closures
WEB Conns has previously announced plans to close a portion of its stores. The bankruptcy filing has accelerated these plans, with the company expected to shut down additional locations nationwide.
Future of the Company
The company's future remains uncertain as it navigates the bankruptcy process. It is unclear whether WEB Conns will be able to restructure its debt and emerge from bankruptcy as a viable business.
