SANTA CLARA — Avaya, a struggling communications tech company whose name is on the home stadium of the San Jose Earthquakes soccer club, filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection on Thursday.

The company listed $5.52 billion in assets and $6.36 billion in debts, according to the bankruptcy case, which was filed in New York City. The initial filing provided scant details about the assets or debts. Avaya intends to provide details of the assets and debts sometime in February or March.

Avaya Stadium officially opened for business in 2015 with sponsor Avaya’s name on the soccer complex, which is located on the west side of Mineta San Jose International Airport.

“Our commitment and partnership with Avaya Stadium remains strong,” an Avaya spokesperson said Thursday. “We will continue business as usual.”

San Jose Earthquakes Chief Operating Officer Jared Shawlee said the soccer club hopes to work closely with Avaya for many years to come

“We’re very supportive of our partner, Avaya,” Shawlee. said “Our partnership remains strong.”

Under its Chapter 11 filing, the company is seeking court-approved protection from its debts while it attempts to restructure its finances.

“We have conducted an extensive review of alternatives to address Avaya’s capital structure, and we believe pursuing a restructuring through Chapter 11 is the best path forward at this time,” said Kevin Kennedy, Avaya’s chief executive officer.

Santa Clara-based Avaya was taken private in 2007 when private equity firms TPG Capital and Silver Lake Partners bought the company. Avaya provides an array of communications products, equipment and services.

Two Texas-based companies, Wistron Infocomm Technology America and Avnet, were listed as the largest unsecured creditors, according to the bankruptcy filing. Avaya owed each company $8.8 million.

Palo Alto-based Hewlett Packard Enterprise was owed $5.5 million, New York-based Verint Americas was owed $4.3 million and San Francisco-based Salesforce was owed $4.1 million, the Chapter 11 petition showed.

Avaya also has received a commitment for $725 million in financing to provide the company with liquidity while it attempts to navigate the bankruptcy process, court records show. Citibank underwrote the financing.

“Reducing the company’s current debt through the Chapter 11 process will best position all of Avaya’s businesses for future success,” Kennedy said.

Still, that turnaround could prove elusive. Avaya on Thursday announced financial results for its 2016 fiscal year that ended Sept. 30. The company lost $750 million in fiscal 2016, a much deeper pool of red ink than the $144 million in losses for fiscal 2015. Avaya lost $505 million in the fourth quarter alone.

Revenue totaled $3.7 billion in fiscal 2016, down 9.3 percent from the previous year, the company reported.

Avaya attempted to sell its call-center business, it said Thursday. However, the attempt fell through. The firm decided it would be in its best interest to focus on its debt structure rather than to seek a sale of the call-center operations.

Avaya said it’s still negotiating to extract cash from certain other assets, which weren’t identified.

“We need to recapitalize the company,” Kennedy said. “Our business is performing well, and we are confident that we can emerge from this process stronger than ever. This path is a reflection of our debt structure, not the strength of our operations or business model.”
