Perhaps your CFO or Controller has become a master corporate juggler, figuring out how to “rob Peter to pay Paul.”

Is he or she jumping through hoops to manage the ebb and flow of your cash trickle? If so, that’s a major indicator that your business is in trouble and needs help. This wears on controllers and CFOs, and soon all their efforts are redirected away from planning. In addition, there is no room for unexpected changes that need to be expected.

Clearly, cash is the lifeline of business. One of the first orders of business when we start working with distressed clients is to help them begin managing from their cash flow statements, rather than from the P&L statement. As necessary, our experienced consultants and accountants help clients build new models that more accurately reflect their financial situation and identify solutions to help bridge gaps and set priorities. These solutions may include a comprehensive turnaround plan or a smaller assessment of operations, or a variety of other solutions tailored to each client’s situation.

If outside capital is required, our investment bankers can assist clients with a wide variety of options ranging from bridge financing to long-term debt and / or equity.
