How we help
Case Study
The Napoleon Perdis directors implemented a range of cost-cutting strategies where possible to improve the bottom line; however, lease and employee entitlement obligations made this process somewhat futile. An unsuccessful private business sale campaign followed, due to the clear need for a business restructure to ‘right size’ the retail profile.
Worrells were appointed voluntary administrators to continue trade while restructuring the business for a potential buyer under a Deed of Company Arrangement (DOCA) solution.
Results
Iconic Australian brand saved
Business IP and stakeholders preserved. Customers keep the brand they love.
Minimal footprint & disruption
Quick dividend distribution. Four-month restructuring process end to end.
Who we help
I have no hesitation in recommending Worrells. I recently had the misfortune to be a creditor in a matter which became increasingly difficult due to several challenging legal issues. Dane and the team at Worrells continued when others would have taken the easy way out.
We speak with people and their advisors every day. We do this as complimentary and without expectation.
