Restructuring events
European Restructuring Monitor (ERM)
The restructuring events database contains factsheets with data on large-scale restructuring events reported in the principal national media and company websites in each EU Member State. This database was created in 2002.
Ekranas, one of the biggest manufacturers of television tubes in the Baltic States, announced its bankruptcy on 8 April, 2006. All 4,086 people working in the company will be dismissed by the end of April, 2006. The company experienced losses of LTL 110 million in 2005. The main reason for decreased sales of the company is increasing competition from cheaper production locations in Asia.
