Our Approach
Acquisita specialises in advising and assisting the directors of companies which are experiencing financial difficulties.
We provide a team of specialists who can..
- help manage banking and creditor pressures whilst the strategy for survival is prepared
- help resolve the key management issues which typically arise when companies are in serious financial difficulties
- kick start the survival strategy.
We have achieved many successful turnarounds of companies in serious financial difficulties. This entails returning the company to stability and putting it in a position where failure is averted and a successful future can be achieved.
Our approach is very straightforward, seeking to involve existing key management and major stakeholders. The initial stages of our work entail reviewing the needs of the business..
- preparing a strategy for survival
- agreeing an action plan
Once the action plan has been agreed we are frequently requested to assist with implementation.
Acquisita is very flexible in the way it provides its services as we recognise that each situation is different. As a consequence we tailor our approach to each assignment.
Each turnaround assignment typically involves a small team of highly experienced advisors each of whom brings his own particular specialism. We find this brings the fastest and most effective resolution of the problems.
Turnaround Planning and Implementation
We work with all levels of management to help create decisive strategic and operational plans designed to turn around a stressed or distressed business.
How Acquisita can help:
- Small, experienced teams working at all levels of management to understand the potential causes of underperformance and help to develop a turnaround strategy
- Clear understanding of the needs of stakeholders and how to address differing agendas
- Development of operational plans to help support delivery of the strategic plan
- Focus on the potential financial and strategic impact of actions
Turnaround Executive and Management Service
A Turnaround Executive is a board level executive with responsibility for developing and carrying out a turnaround strategy, usually working alongside the other Board members who continue to manage day-to-day operations.
To help spearhead the recovery process, we can introduce one of our highly experienced and credentialed turnaround directors. Using our wide ranging contacts in the business world, Acquisita has brought together a panel of senior turnaround executives, all with a strong corporate track record. Their proven knowledge is vital in restoring shareholder confidence and creating a stable platform for the future. Whilst these individuals have the resources of Acquisita at their disposal, they remain independent "hands on" executives providing leadership in the business rescue process.
By taking executive roles, Acquisita's restructuring professionals have the authority to carry through major changes. All our individuals have extensive track records, and possess leadership qualities, business integrity and a firm command of financial, operational and legal issues.
How Acquisita can help:
- Crisis management designed to help stabilise the business to help enable turnaround
- Practical plans for restructuring the business and increasing the speed of the turnaround process
- Executives to fill critical leadership positions
- Help with ensuring a timely flow of information and analysis
- Management of communications with the Board, management and lenders
- Fallback planning
- Deep and broad support from Acquisita's network
