Spirit Aviation Holdings, Inc. — Cyborg Score 1/10

Challenged
US airline passenger transportation

Strategic Profile

On August 29, 2025, Spirit Aviation Holdings, Inc. along with its affiliates, filed a voluntary petition for reorganization under Chapter 11 in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York. The stock trades on the OTC Pink Limited Market under "FLYYQ," with the filing stating that any trading in the common stock is highly speculative and that no recovery is expected for existing shareholders in the Chapter 11 cases, meaning current equity is expected to be wiped out.

Cyborg Score Rationale

Spirit Airlines ceased operations after surging jet fuel prices and a failed federal bailout left the company with no remaining way out of bankruptcy, with the airline ceasing operations on May 2, 2026. The company is beginning an orderly wind-down of operations, has cancelled all Spirit Airlines flights effective immediately, and expects holders of its common stock to experience a complete loss on their investment.
