The troubled shared office space company WeWork declined SoftBank’s financial offer and instead plans to accept a $5 billion financial rescue package from JP Morgan Chase. Softbank currently owns about one-third of WeWork and their most recent financial offer would have given them a controlling interest in the company. 

WeWork lost $1.9 billion in 2018 and has already spent $2.36 billion during the first half of 2019.
