The term pre-pack
administration is now widely used in insolvency circles. It is a term
used to describe a process whereby the insolvent company’s assets
are sold to a third party prior to the insolvent company going into
any formal insolvency process. It is most commonly used in conjunction
with the administration procedure. Pre-pack Administration can save
your business by writing off debt and emerging stronger as a Phoenix
company. We have specialist experience and offer practical advice. You
can get a free consultation (see below).
Any deal is usually agreed prior to the Insolvency Practitioner
being appointed, but the anticipated appointee may well advise on the
terms and structure of such a deal.
The pre-pack administration processes are used as they
are acknowledged as a good way of extracting value from assets prior
to an insolvency, when publicity can cause values of goodwill and such
like to be lost. It keeps staff and management involved in the business,
and assists continuity of trading.
The pre-pack is also used where it is unlikely that
sufficient cash will be available to fund a trading administration,
whilst potential buyers are sought. Pre-packs have always been available
but their use has spiralled in recent years as many new types of businesses
have found themselves insolvent.
The pre-pack has
been criticised in some quarters, as providing the creditors with a
fait accompli. The deal has been done and everybody has to take its
effects. Any decent Insolvency Practitioner will document the steps
taken to get maximum value and there will be good business reasons for
taking this type of action.
