Restructuring Report and Expert Opinion

When financed companies get into economic difficulties, new challenges arise for the capital providers. In order to initiate successful restructuring, a resilient restructuring report is necessary - also for legal reasons.

Overview

Our restructuring reports take into account the highest court rulings of the Federal Supreme Court (BGH) and meet the requirements of the IDW S6 standard. In this way, lenders, investors and credit insurers meet their regulatory requirements and protect themselves against risks of contestation and liability. As a quality leader, FTI-Andersch is known throughout Germany for robust and meaningful restructuring reports - and as part of FTI Consulting, also handles international restructurings worldwide.

In our expert opinions, we make an objective and well-founded assessment of the ability to restructure on the basis of a comprehensive company analysis. At the beginning, the liquidity situation is analysed and, if necessary, appropriate short-term measures are taken. In addition, a detailed analysis of the financial and performance management, the market and competitive position as well as the causes of the crisis is carried out. Based on the results, potentials are identified, measures are derived and combined in an integrated corporate planning. In the process, the sustainability of the business model is also taken into account; using an ESG approach suitable for restructuring situations.

Together we define the focal points and the framework for action at the beginning of our work - our aim is to ensure an efficient work process and relevant results. You benefit from our experience and professionalism - we proceed with tact and safeguard the interests of all stakeholders.

Questions for the team

What is the aim of a restructuring report?

The aim of a restructuring report is to draw up a comprehensive concept to ensure sustainable competitiveness and profitability. The concept is based on reliable analyses and measures developed together with the company to secure liquidity and restore profitability. It also confirms the company's ability to restructure and serves as a decisive basis for the financiers' decisions on future cooperation with the company.

What are the critical success factors?

Of course, it is not possible without professional expertise and experience and, in many cases, international networks - this is the only way we can maintain our claim to quality leadership. On the other hand, empathy and sensitivity are also required. Central to the success of the restructuring is the acceptance of the measures developed and the necessary changes in the company. That is why we work closely with the experts in the company from the very beginning and jointly develop the measures required for the turnaround.

Restructuring report sounds drastic - what does it mean for a company?

A reorganisation report is not about throwing everything overboard and starting from scratch. Often crises are caused by external factors or because companies have not adapted to changed conditions – often they hold on to the tried and tested for too long. However, this does not mean that everything is bad. On the contrary: the existing experience and expertise often only needs to be channelled in the right direction – through targeted restructuring measures. We have been supporting entrepreneurs and managing directors as a team for more than two decades.
