Financial Restructuring

Situation

Our client, £1.7bn PE backed business services organisation was in the process of restructuring their funding. The existing financial model had insufficient flexibility and was becoming a bottleneck in the process.

Swan Actions

  • Developed the financial model to have greater flexibility and faster turnaround times
  • Full Analytical Review of each of the divisional P&L, Balance Sheet and Cash flows
  • Scenario and sensitivity analysis to demonstrate base case and downside cases for the advisors’ reports
  • Stakeholder management, acting as first point of contact for financial forecast queries from third parties
  • Presented outputs to the senior exec team, showing cash flow and funding implications of each strategy in real time

Outcome

The financial model underpinned the successful restructuring of the business and the ongoing support of its lenders thereby avoiding administration.
