July 13- Celsius files for Chapter 11 bankruptcy. The company stated that they will attempt to restructure in a fashion “that maximizes value for all stakeholders,” citing $167m to avoid complete insolvency in the meantime. Bankruptcy value is said to be between $1-10b, with over 100,000 creditors.
