- Bondholders approved changes affecting Vestel's 2029-dated senior secured notes.
- The arrangement remains subject to approval by Türkiye's Capital Markets Board.
- November interest payments will be deferred under the restructuring framework.
Vestel Elektronik's creditors approved the company's restructuring proposal on Wednesday, November 11, 2026, marking a new phase in the Turkish electronics maker's effort to reorganize its debt. The report was published by Paramedya.
Bondholders Approve Debt Changes
The vote covered Vestel's 500 million US dollar senior secured bonds due in 2029, which carry an annual coupon of 9.75%. The meeting reached a quorum of 93.38%, while 82% of participating creditors supported the restructuring proposal. That exceeded the required approval threshold of 75%.
The approved framework is expected to replace the existing bond terms with new maturities in 2032 and 2035. The November interest payment scheduled for November 15 will not be made on the original timetable and will instead be deferred to a later date under the restructuring process.
Regulatory Approval Still Pending
The agreement is not yet fully effective. Vestel said approval from Türkiye's Capital Markets Board, known as the SPK, is still required. After that approval, the company plans to announce the settlement date and the identification details for the new 2032 bonds.
The outcome gives Vestel a creditor-backed framework for addressing its bond obligations, but it does not by itself resolve the company's broader financing needs. The next milestones are the SPK decision and the implementation of the revised securities.

Vestel sells consumer electronics and household appliances through its product business and supports customers with spare parts, accessories, maintenance and authorized-service offerings, according to its corporate website.
