HOW WE WORK

Our Approach

Our Approach

A structured three-phase approach that maximises certainty, minimises disruption, and delivers optimal outcomes for all stakeholders.

PHASE 1

ASSESS, STRUCTURE & NEGOTIATE

Phase Title

4–16 weeks

We establish the facts, develop a viable restructuring strategy and align the key stakeholders around an agreed solution.

Financial & Operational Assessment

Review financial performance, operational constraints, liquidity needs, funding options and immediate value-preservation priorities.

Creditor & Stakeholder Engagement

Engage major creditors, funders and stakeholders to understand positions, negotiate priorities and build confidence.

Agreed Restructuring Plan

Develop the restructuring strategy, negotiate the core commercial terms and assess the most appropriate informal or formal implementation route.

PHASE 2

FORMAL IMPLEMENTATION, WHERE REQUIRED

Phase Title

Typically 15–20 business days

Where a pre-packaged business rescue is appropriate, the statutory process is used to implement the restructuring already agreed in principle.

Business Rescue Filing

Initiate the formal process only where the statutory framework is the most effective way to protect value and implement the solution.

Formal Creditor Process

Publish the plan, convene the required creditor process and provide the information needed for informed consideration.

Voting & Approval

Use the statutory framework to secure approval and convert the negotiated restructuring plan into an implemented outcome.

PHASE 3

IMPLEMENT THE RESTRUCTURING

Phase Title

Varies by transaction

We execute the agreed financial, commercial and operational actions, maintaining stakeholder alignment through implementation.

Capital & Creditor Restructuring

Implement refinancing, creditor settlements or compromises, capital restructuring and transaction or asset-sale solutions.

Operational & Contractual Change

Deliver operational restructuring, contract renegotiations and the changes required to support a sustainable turnaround.

Turnaround Plan Execution

Provide interim management or stakeholder liaison where required and implement the agreed turnaround plan with accountability.

IMPLEMENTATION PATH

A clear route from diagnosis to delivery.

We do the restructuring work upfront, align the relevant stakeholders, and then use the most appropriate legal, financial and commercial tools to implement the solution.
