 corporate clients

Examinership | Liquidation | Insolvency

We can assist corporate clients during the credit approval process by working with them during the fundraising process, ensuring you have a robust credit story and a business plan in place to deliver a compelling proposition to lenders.

Through challenging your assumptions and analysing the debt capacity of your business, including providing support in modelling where necessary, we are able to tackle any areas for improvement, identify execution risks and structure a funding package that best suits your strategic ambitions. This preparation is key to a successful debt raise and will save costs in the long run because the most expensive part of debt is often making subsequent amendments when things don't go to plan.

Advice to companies facing financial difficulties

Specialist legal and financial advice in distress situations when and where you need it.

We assist directors in evaluating and implementing potential solutions to financial difficulties. This includes liaising with your stakeholders.

Financial restructuring (debt and equity raising) and operational re-modelling including identification of appropriate debt instruments to guarantee the right debt to equity sizing and operational streamlining.

Crisis stabilisation and turnaround.  Diagnostic analysis provides stakeholders with a clear understanding of the causes of underperformance and the strategic potential of a business – both crucial when assessing turnaround potential.

Examinership

Examinership is a process used by a company in financial difficulty to reach a binding agreement with its creditors to pay back all, or part, of its debts over an agreed timeline.

The process is overseen by the Court, and provides the company a protection from its creditors during the examinership period.  This protection gives the company breathing space to obtain fresh equity, refinance existing debt and to disengage from non-profitable operations. The company continues trading during the process of examinership.

Our examinership experts can guide you through every step of the process to ensure that the Examinership has the best possible chances of success and that the process goes quickly, smoothly and cost effectively.

Liquidation

We deal with Creditors’ Voluntary Liquidations well as Winding-up by the Court when your company becomes insolvent, and use Members’ Voluntary liquidation, for those companies which are solvent but require liquidation for taxation and restructuring purposes.

Insolvency

Sometimes the situation may be more critical. This may require the use of a formal insolvency process to deal with personal or corporate debt or to recover value for stakeholders.
