When the business is under pressure

Cash flow, costs or performance may be putting pressure on the business. Acting early can make a real difference.

We help you understand what is driving the pressure, what can change and whether there is a viable way forward.

Our turnaround management and business recovery specialists help identify what is driving the pressure and whether there is a viable way forward.

That could mean stabilising cash flow, improving performance, changing the way the business operates or reviewing its funding.

We can also support you with Independent Business Reviews, options reviews, performance monitoring and crises.

Our focus is on protecting value and giving your business the best possible opportunity to recover and return to growth.

Restructuring a business that can recover

Acting early can give you more options.

Our business recovery services help you assess whether the business can recover and what needs to change and which restructuring options could provide the best outcome.

Depending on your circumstances, this could include:

  • Company Voluntary Arrangement (CVA)
  • Restructuring Plan
  • Refinancing or recapitalisation
  • Administration
  • Pre-pack Administration or sale
  • Accelerated M&A
  • Moratoriums
  • Examinership for eligible Irish companies

For eligible Irish companies, we also advise on Examinership and prepare Independent Expert Reports.

The business needs to change or raise funding

Your business may be viable but needs a different financial or ownership structure to move forward.

You may be considering refinancing, new funding, a change in ownership, a sale or a wider business restructuring.

We help you understand what each option could mean and choose a practical way forward. This can include refinancing, banking support, fundraising, recapitalisation, M&A, business sales, MBOs, MBIs and corporate restructuring.

By bringing together our restructuring, recovery and corporate finance expertise, we can find a solution built around what you want to achieve.

When the business needs to close

Sometimes recovery isn’t possible, or closing the business is the right commercial decision. If so, we’ll help you understand your options and responsibilities.

For insolvent companies, our licensed insolvency practitioners can advise on formal insolvency procedures including Administration, Creditors’ Voluntary Liquidation (CVL), Court Liquidation and Receivership.

For solvent companies, we can help you decide whether a Members’ Voluntary Liquidation (MVL) or Strike Off is the right way to close your company.

If an MVL is appropriate, our experienced liquidators can manage the process, including dealing with creditors and distributing remaining assets to shareholders.
