Supporting Your Business Through Change

Whatever the driver, the key to ensuring an effective transition from the business you are to the one you want to be is to seek professional advice on your options and the steps you can take to bring about change in the most effective, least disruptive and minimally risky way.

At IMD Corporate, our corporate solutions team specialize in helping businesses who face difficult choices and who require legal advice and support as they undergo transformation.

With lawyers operating across several offices throughout the UK and Europe, e are here to assist you wherever you may be and whether the business you require help with is domestic or international.

Our service is prompt and efficient and can usually be delivered for a fixed price to ensure costs are predictable and can be easily budgeted for.

How we can help

We can assist with a variety of restructuring exercises on behalf of both solvent and distressed corporate entities and in the provision of advice to company directors who may face personal liability for sanctioning transactions at an undervalue or which amount to a preference.

We can also help in the provision of advice to shareholders, corporate lenders, secured and unsecured creditors and insolvency practitioners.

Types of restructuring

We can help to plan, implement and attend to the legal formalities associated with:

  • rationalisation projects, to dispose of non-essential property, equipment and personnel;
  • streamlining exercises, to improve operational and business efficiency;
  • the issue of new shares, to facilitate the raising of additional capital;
  • the conversion of a limited company to a plc via a public offering to attract external investment;
  • company demergers, to separate out different parts of a company’s business;
  • hive-ups and hive-downs, to facilitate the transfer of assets and liabilities between a parent company and its subsidiaries;
  • business sales and mergers, to effect a full or partial market exit;
  • debt refinancing, to secure a lower rate of interest and better repayment terms; and
  • company voluntary arrangements and other insolvency options, to keep a financially distressed business afloat.

Additional services

We can also provide specialist advice on:

  • large-scale redundancy programmes which require employee consultation;
  • joint venture and outsourcing arrangements that raise TUPE considerations;
  • employee share option schemes;
  • share redesignation following changes to a company’s share capital;
  • legal due dilligence in the run-up to a business sale or company merger;
  • strategies to maintain adequate intellectual property protection;
  • corporate governance and compliance matters, including the need for amendments to be made to your articles of association and other constitutional documents;
  • the resolutions of disputes between directors and shareholders;
  • the transfer of business activities from the UK to Europe and vice versa;
  • the process international companies need to go through to secure a fiscal residency certificate for tax purposes; and
  • competition and anti-trust concerns.
