Real Estate in Restructuring:

In virtually every corporate reorganization, in or out of bankruptcy, real estate decisions are an important part of the turnaround plan. In some cases, real estate might be the first or second largest asset, and an integral part of the plan of reorganization. In smaller entities, where real estate might consist of only one or two assets or liabilities, the restructuring of a loan or monetization of an asset might make the difference in profitability.

Services include:

• Portfolio analysis and valuation
• Creditors Committee representation
• Expert testimony
• Interim real estate management
• Lease and easement abstracting
• Rejection claim analysis
• Leasehold and fee interest disposition

Recapitalization:

Business owners may choose recapitalization financing in order to fund ownership transitions in their companies or to sell a majority interest, generate liquidity, increase shareholder value or gain greater operational flexibility. In addition, a recapitalization is often an attractive alternative to an initial public offering or sale.

Axia professionals work with business owners, management teams and shareholders to develop and implement recapitalization strategies that meet our clients' specific goals and objectives. When a recapitalization is needed to support growth opportunities, we combine our comprehensive knowledge of capital markets with our personal relationships with private equity, mezzanine capital and senior debt sources to ensure our clients find the right financial partner with the best possible financing terms.

Divestitures:

Business owners, management teams and private equity groups have to decide the most effective way to manage their portfolios. This includes deciding which businesses to grow and which to discard.

Axia professionals assist business owners, management teams, and private equity groups to divest non-core assets, exit portfolio acquisitions, and restructure holdings in order to reshape a company's message to investors, employees and other interested shareholders. Additionally, divesting non-core assets allows management to focus its attention on its core business. We work with clients considering a divestiture to develop strategies intended to maximize optimal value.
