WeWork has secured a restructuring deal with its major financial backers, including SoftBank, to exit bankruptcy, effectively sidelining a competing $650 million bid from co-founder Adam Neumann. The deal involves a settlement with junior creditors and a new cash infusion from senior lenders. Neumann's offer, which was criticized as 'value destructive' by WeWork allies, was aimed at reacquiring the co-working firm he helped establish. WeWork's decision to reject Neumann's proposal marks a significant turn in the company's efforts to stabilize its finances and strategic direction.
