New Chapter 11 Filing – IEH Auto Parts Holding LLC

On January 31, 2023, IEH Auto Parts Holding LLC d/b/a Auto Plus, an automotive aftermarkets parts distributor, along with several affiliates, filed a petition for relief under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code in the Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Texas (Case No. 23-90054).  The company reports approximately $100 million to $500 million in both assets and liabilities.  According to a press release from Icahn Enterprises L.P. (Nasdaq: IEP) (“IEP”), various factors have negatively impacted Auto Plus as well as the industry in general, including lessened demand, supply chain disruptions, an inflationary environment and the effects of COVID-19.   By filing for chapter 11 protection, Auto Plus expects to continue to operate its business in the ordinary course and also plans to run a sale process for substantially all of its assets during the chapter 11 case.  The press release also states that that the chapter 11 proceedings will not have a significant impact on IEP.
