Capital Restructuring / Special Situations

CI provides strategies for companies that are experiencing or contemplating bankruptcy protection, or companies that are simply financially distressed. CI services include the identification of restructuring alternatives, renegotiation or replacement of existing debt obligations, renegotiation of lease obligations, the sale or closure of non-core assets and in the development of turnaround strategies.

CI seeks to maximize the value of a financially distressed company. Consistent with our other services, we take the time to gain a deep level of insight into a distressed company’s strengths and weaknesses; assess its operations and unit-level management team; and evaluate its present and future financial position and operating potential. We focus on the identification, evaluation and execution of viable alternatives. Most frequently, we attempt to implement these alternatives out-of-court, but we may also recommend that a distressed company work under the protection of and with the restructuring opportunities afforded under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code.

Our extensive knowledge of typical debt structures, valuation issues, current industry conditions and capital markets provides the basis for effective negotiation with creditors, investors, landlords, vendors and others.
