Canoo, the electric delivery vehicle startup which raced against time and insolvency despite infusions of incentive funding and actual van orders from Walmart and NASA, has been crushed under mounting debt and decided to cease all operations immediately.

The Texas-based Canoo announced Friday it had filed a petition for Chapter 7 bankruptcy, which is liquidation of the company’s assets and distribution of remaining proceeds to creditors, in Delaware federal court. News reports indicated that the company, which previously had received promises of hundreds of millions in funding from investors and government incentives to locate manufacturing in the U.S., was reportedly down to less than $100,000 in cash and millions in debt.

Some 23,872 companies went out of business in 2024, the Insolvency Service said, down 5% on the previous year.

Despite the drop year on year, the number of insolvencies was far higher than most of the last decade, and remains at levels last seen during the 2008 financial crisis.

The figures also revealed that compulsory liquidations – where courts order firms to stop trading because they cannot pay their debts – jumped 14% to 3,230 in 2024 after a year-end surge.

The number of monthly compulsory liquidations soared by 53% year on year during December.

Administrations, an accounting process used when especially large companies hit the wall, also rose – up 2% over 2024 – and were 5% higher year on year in December.

Company collapses in Northern Ireland soared last year, according to new official figures.

Some 305 firms went out of business in 2024, according to the Insolvency Service.

And that represented a massive 40% increase on the previous year, when 218 firms went under.

In December alone there were 23 company insolvencies registered in the north, 4% lower than in December 2023.

This was comprised of 17 CVLs, four compulsory liquidations, one CVA and one administration. There were no receivership appointments.

Northern Ireland was the only UK region to show an increase, according to the data.



Company collapses in England and Wales fell by 5% last year to 23,872 while insolvencies in Scotland were similar to the year before, at 1,236.
