How to Achieve a
BUSINESS RECOVERY



    successionleadershipchange.com
Four Key Questions...
    One Commitment
1. Investigate the business:
   What’s Going On Right Now?
2. What are the Immediate Risks?
3. Seriously assess the business viability:
   Will it Survive the Recovery Process?
4. What can be done (practically)?
5. Identify the Recovery Plan

             successionleadershipchange.com
Investigate the Business
   - What’s Going On?
• Review Financial information including: Aged
  creditors & debtors; Balance Sheet; P&L;
  forward cash projections

• Understand the Business
• Canvas views from CEO, CFO, staff, advisors:
  - What are the constraints?
  - What are the opportunities?
            successionleadershipchange.com
Will it Survive
the Recovery Process?
• What short-term funding needs?
 - Cash available now
 - Cash requirements
 - Cash generation options
• How long can the business sustain on its
  current path?


          successionleadershipchange.com
What are the
       Immediate Risks?
• Identify risk areas & what can be done to
  stabilise the company & preserve value:

  -   Where is value leaking?

  -   What are the regulatory or legal risks?

• Implement controls accordingly
• Assess the CEO & current management:
  could they achieve a business recovery?

            successionleadershipchange.com
What can be done
     (practically)?
• Sales & customer specific strategies?
• Supplier & debt strategies: what can you
  offer them for support?

• Cost reduction strategies?
• Working capital reduction strategies?
• Equity strategies?
          successionleadershipchange.com
The Business
         Recovery Plan
• Based on the previous questions:
 - Create a Recovery Plan that specifies
     how, when and where you will deploy
     resources, what the conditions are of any
     further debt/equity commitments & any
     conditional decision (stop/go) break points

 -   Deploy a monitoring program to provide
     ‘real-time’ feedback on all key risks

           successionleadershipchange.com

  and Good Luck!
