Florida-UCLA-LOPucki Bankruptcy Research DatabaseNOTE: The BRD will no longer be updated after December 2022. The BRD contains data on all of the more than one-thousand large public companies that have filed bankruptcy cases between October 1, 1979 and December 31, 2022. We consider a company "public" if it filed an Annual Report (form 10-K or form 10) with the Securities and Exchange Commission for a year ending not less than three years prior to the filing of the bankruptcy case. We consider a company "large" if that Annual Report reported assets worth $100 million or more, measured in 1980 dollars (about $314 million in current dollars). Coverage includes cases filed under Chapter 7 and Chapter 11, whether filed by the debtors or creditors. Most data was updated monthly.
