It’s no secret the current macro environment is ripe with distressed investment opportunities for lenders and equity seekers, as well as restructuring opportunities for businesses. Proskauer M&A Partners Christopher Ahn, Kristian Herrmann, and Ben Orlanski, as well as Chad Dale of our Restructuring & Bankruptcy group, will be joined by Steve Simms, Senior Managing Director and Co-Leader of the Corporate Finance & Restructuring group at FTI Consulting, for a high-level discussion demystifying distressed M&A deals. We will discuss current market trends, common issues that arise in distressed transactions and other considerations.
Topics to be covered:
- What challenges and opportunities does the current environment present for investors and lenders?
- What variables are causing borrowers in certain industries to experience the greatest amount of stress?
- How to rationalize an over levered balance sheet out of court (versus in court).
- How to acquire an over levered business out of court (versus in court).
