On 29 May 2017 Componenta Främmestad AB has filed an application to the Skaraborg district court for an extension of three months for the restructuring proceeding of Componenta Främmestad AB and for convening a composition hearing.   

Componenta Främmestad AB and the Turkish subsidiary of Componenta, Componenta Dökümcülük Ticaret ve Sanayi A.S., have signed a separate agreement regarding the EUR 11.4 million restructuring debt. In accordance with the agreement, the debt is cut by 75% and shall be paid back within a period of six years, after the repayment of the other restructuring debt.
