Case Studies
Real Outcomes. Real Impact.
Across sectors as diverse as healthcare, technology, retail, trades, transport, agribusiness, education and not-for-profit, our work speaks for itself. While every situation is unique, our approach consistently blends rigorous financial modelling, short-term cashflow control, capital structure assessment, and lender engagement-giving businesses the breathing space they need to recover, rebuild, and realise value.
Healthcare Provider-
Balance Sheet Restructure
Challenge: A private hospital faced mounting debt pressures, regulatory complexity, and declining liquidity following a period of underinvestment.
Our Approach: We built a robust integrated forecast model to give the Board visibility over future performance, supported by a rolling 13-week cashflow to manage immediate pressures. By analysing the capital structure and demonstrating sustainability to lenders, we created space for management to stabilise operations while meeting critical community needs.
Outcome: The hospital avoided insolvency, secured the funding needed for essential services, and preserved its role in local healthcare.
Specialist Trade Services- Recapitalisation and Growth
Challenge: A leading trades services provider supplying the residential construction sector was under acute financial pressure due to builder failures, delayed payments, and over-reliance on short-term facilities.
Our Approach: We developed a detailed financial forecast and granular cashflow model to map the funding gap. With this evidence base, we engaged with financiers to resize debt and with investors to secure new equity. The analysis also identified the optimal capital mix to support future growth.
Outcome: The business was recapitalised successfully, strengthened supplier confidence, and returned to a platform for sustainable expansion.
National Transport & Logistics- Succession Transition
Challenge: A family-owned transport operator needed a transition plan as the founding generation exited the business, while carrying debt and legacy operational inefficiencies.
Our Approach: We worked closely with management to build an integrated forecast that reflected realistic operating assumptions, alongside a weekly cashflow discipline to restore financial control. This underpinned negotiations with lenders for revised debt terms and provided a stable foundation for a smooth ownership transition.
Outcome: The business transitioned successfully to new ownership, maximising value for the family shareholders and protecting long-term customer relationships.
Agribusiness & Wine-
Lender Negotiations
Challenge: An established agribusiness in the wine sector faced liquidity stress from shifting market demand, high debt servicing requirements, and covenant breaches.
Our Approach: We stress-tested integrated forecasts across multiple demand scenarios and embedded a 13-week cashflow tool to highlight pinch points. By pairing this with a restructuring of the debt profile, we presented lenders with a credible path to recovery and negotiated terms that allowed the business breathing space.
Outcome: A revised debt package was secured, providing working capital flexibility and avoiding distressed asset sales.
Freight & Logistics-
Capital Restructure
Challenge: A mid-sized freight business faced pressure from rising costs, contract concentration risks, and high gearing, leaving it vulnerable to insolvency.
Our Approach: We designed a comprehensive forecasting framework to quantify funding needs, together with a rolling cashflow to manage volatility. Our capital structure assessment showed the unsustainability of existing gearing, which supported negotiations with financiers to reset facilities. This gave the business stability to re-focus on operations.
Outcome: The company achieved a stabilised capital structure, preserved customer relationships, and restored lender confidence.
Large-Scale Transport Group- Strategic Sale Preparation
Challenge: A major logistics group faced structural industry headwinds and required a pathway to realise shareholder value through divestment.
Our Approach: We combined a forward-looking integrated forecast with detailed cashflow analysis to demonstrate business resilience through the sale process. Alongside capital structure review and lender engagement, this ensured stakeholders remained supportive during preparations for divestment.
Outcome: A competitive sale process was launched from a position of stability, maximising value while ensuring continuity for customers and staff.
Not-for-Profit-Contract Remediation and Renewal
Challenge: A large not-for-profit organisation delivering essential community services was bleeding cash due to an unsustainable contract and structural weaknesses in its financial model. Without urgent intervention, its ability to serve vulnerable communities was at risk.
Our Approach: We rebuilt the organisation’s financial foundation by developing a comprehensive integrated forecast and a 13-week rolling cashflow to provide visibility and control. We reviewed the capital position, identified areas of structural imbalance, and supported negotiations to remediate a major funding contract that was undermining viability.
Outcome: The organisation restored financial stability, renewed stakeholder confidence, and is now flourishing with a sustainable platform to expand its community impact.
Technology Business – Product Investment Rescue
Challenge: A technology business had invested heavily in the development of a new product that ultimately failed to deliver the anticipated revenue. The financial burden of this investment threatened the stability of the underlying business, with mounting creditor pressure and the risk of insolvency.
Our Approach: We stepped in to manage creditor negotiations and secure vital breathing space for management. This involved:
- Comprehensive financial analysis and 13-week forecasting to establish the business’s true cash needs.
- Building and demonstrating a sustainable debt pathway to lenders to secure their ongoing support.
- Creating time and space for management to pivot towards a sales-led recovery strategy for the new product.
Outcome: With creditor patience secured and lenders reassured by clear financial modelling, management was able to focus fully on driving sales execution. Within months, the new sales strategy delivered a strong pipeline, stabilising cash flow. Debt levels reduced to sustainable levels, and the business successfully repositioned itself for long-term financial success.
