Resolution criteria
- Brightline will be considered in default if it fails to make a scheduled debt payment and exhausts its remaining payment deferrals allowed under bond agreements.
- The market resolves YES if Brightline defaults on any of its debt obligations at any point during 2026.
- The market resolves NO if Brightline makes all required debt payments throughout 2026 without triggering a default clause.
- Resolution will be determined by official announcements from Brightline, bond trustee filings with the SEC's EMMA system (https://emma.msrb.org/), or statements from credit rating agencies (S&P Global, Fitch, Moody's).
- Fitch Ratings warned a default by mid-2027 is "highly likely", and S&P projects the most likely path to default is January 1, 2027.
