Restructuring & Turnarounds

Restoring Stability. Rebuilding Confidence. Creating Value.

Kreshmore Group partners with middle-market companies, boards, and lenders to restore stability and reposition enterprises under financial or operational stress. Our team combines restructuring experience, capital markets fluency, and hands-on execution to drive outcomes that preserve value and rebuild confidence across the stakeholder landscape.

Who We Serve

We advise management teams, boards of directors, and creditor constituencies facing inflection points — whether triggered by liquidity pressure, covenant defaults, performance deterioration, or strategic transition. Our balanced experience representing both debtors and creditors enables us to anticipate competing interests, align stakeholders, and execute solutions with speed and credibility.

Our clients often find themselves navigating unprecedented business challenges: supply chain disruptions compounding margin pressure, rapid market shifts requiring operational pivots, or legacy capital structures incompatible with current performance realities. In these moments, leadership teams need more than analysis — they need a trusted advisor who can stabilize operations, communicate effectively with lenders and investors, and chart a credible path forward.

Capabilities

Our professionals deliver comprehensive turnaround and restructuring services tailored to each engagement:

• Chief Restructuring Officer / Interim Leadership – Provide steady-state leadership and crisis management to stabilize the enterprise and restore operational control.
• Liquidity Management & 13-Week Cash Flow Forecasting – Develop disciplined cash flow visibility and scenario analysis to guide near-term decisions. Provide assessments of internal cash flows or models to deliver outside validation of forward-looking projections.
• Creditor & Stakeholder Advisory – Engage lenders, lessors, and investors to negotiate standstills, forbearances, and capital solutions.
• Liability Management & Debt Restructuring – Evaluate and execute strategies to optimize capital structures and manage maturity schedules.
• Contingency Planning & Business Assessment – Prepare executable paths for recapitalization, divestiture, or court-supervised restructuring.
• DIP Financing & 363 Sale Processes – Structure and execute debtor-in-possession financings and asset sale transactions in coordination with legal counsel.
• Out-of-Court Workouts & Recapitalizations – Pursue consensual resolutions that minimize cost and disruption while maximizing recovery.
• Article 9 UCC Sales – Manage secured party sales and related collateral dispositions under Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code.
• Assignments for the Benefit of Creditors (ABCs) – Facilitate structured state-level liquidation proceedings to maximize recoveries for stakeholders.
• Receiverships – Serve as or support court-appointed receivers to manage operations, safeguard assets, and execute orderly transitions.
• Wind-Downs & Liquidations – Oversee operational closures and asset monetizations that preserve value and ensure compliance with fiduciary obligations.

Our Approach

Kreshmore operates with an execution-first philosophy. We embed with management to stabilize the business, establish transparency with stakeholders, and drive toward actionable solutions. Our process emphasizes:

• Speed and Control – Rapid liquidity triage, stakeholder communication, and immediate operational visibility.
• Alignment of Interests – Balanced engagement across management, lenders, and investors to preserve enterprise value.
• Hands-On Execution – Senior professionals lead each phase, from analysis to implementation, ensuring accountability and measurable impact.
• Broad Industry Coverage – Having worked in nearly every major industry and segment, we bring experience across the business landscape.

In restructuring situations, time is not neutral — delay compounds uncertainty and erodes stakeholder confidence. That’s why our engagements begin with immediate action: stabilizing cash, communicating transparently with creditors, and establishing control over the variables that matter most. Our team brings the judgment to distinguish between near-term stabilization and longer-term strategic repositioning, ensuring that today’s decisions align with tomorrow’s outcomes.

Results

Our track record includes:

• $1.0B+ in liabilities restructured across manufacturing, transportation, and consumer sectors.
• Successful out-of-court recapitalizations that preserved equity value while improving liquidity profiles.
• Distressed M&A sales that have resulted in creditor recovery and even borrower upside.
• Creditor-led advisory mandates resulting in consensual restructurings and enhanced recoveries.

Each engagement is measured by a single standard — sustained performance improvement and stakeholder confidence. Whether advising a debtor, creditor, or board, our objective remains consistent: deliver outcomes that preserve value, protect constituencies, and position the enterprise for the next chapter.

Why Kreshmore

Restructuring advisory demands more than financial modeling and process management. It requires real-world operational judgment, credibility with lenders and investors, and the ability to lead under pressure. Kreshmore’s professionals have operated on both sides of the capital structure — representing debtors, creditors, and boards across a wide range of industries and situations.

This dual-sided perspective enables us to anticipate how different constituencies will respond, structure proposals that align competing interests, and execute solutions with the credibility and precision that middle-market engagements demand. Our senior team leads every phase of the engagement, providing continuity, accountability, and direct access to decision-makers throughout the process.

We maintain deep relationships across the restructuring ecosystem — commercial banks, private credit funds, ABL lenders, distressed investors, and legal counsel — ensuring that our clients benefit from early market intelligence and direct access to capital sources often unavailable through traditional channels.

Related Industries

Our restructuring engagements span a broad range of sectors including Industrials & Manufacturing, Transportation & Logistics, Consumer, Retail & Hospitality, Real Estate & Property, and Energy & Power.

Complementary Services

Many restructuring engagements evolve into strategic initiatives as stability is restored. Our integrated platform enables seamless transitions to Investment Banking & M&A for sale processes or recapitalizations, Strategic Advisory for operational improvement and exit readiness, and Real Estate Capital Markets for clients with significant property holdings.
