Fisker Inc. has filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection, citing numerous market and economic challenges. This news has led to a sharp drop in its stock value, impacting many investors who believed in the company’s potential.
Fisker’s CEO, Henrik Fisker, and his wife, Geeta Gupta-Fisker, are facing criticism for their management of the company. The CEO stated that they explored all possible options, but selling assets under Chapter 11 was the best choice.
Investor Ron Vining expressed his frustration on social media, highlighting his financial losses. Vining sold Fisker shares for under $0.02 just last week, having initially purchased them at an average price of $11.00 per share.

His posts reflect the disappointment of many investors who feel let down by the company’s leadership. Vining mentioned that this has been his largest stock market loss since 2009, attributing the downfall to what he perceives as poor executive leadership.
Fisker has been attempting to establish itself in the EV industry, with Henrik Fisker known for designing the all-electric 2022 Ocean SUV and the 2011 Fisker Karma, a luxury plug-in hybrid. However, the company has faced hurdles, similar to those encountered with the Karma, which was eventually sold to China’s Wanxiang Group in 2014.
The recent bankruptcy filing indicates that pending deals with Chinese, Japanese, and Korean automakers such as BYD, Nissan, and Hyundai did not materialize, further compounding Fisker’s challenges. This has raised questions about the future of the company’s assets and whether they might be more valuable when sold off.
