Recapitalization
By: Bob Swain
Companies choose to undertake recapitalization transactions to accomplish a myriad of goals, including diversification of debt-to-equity ratios, defense against a hostile takeover, ensuring the lowest possible tax burden, and creating an exit strategy for investors such as venture capitalists. If executed properly by experienced professionals with a keen understanding of the markets and the needs of business and investors, a recapitalization offers tremendous opportunity for companies to advance to the next level of success.
When launching a start-up, companies often accept terms for borrowing money that they might not if their businesses had long track records and unlimited credit options. However, after their companies gain success, either showing steady growth or profits, business owners often opt to embark upon a recapitalization effort to improve liquidity. In most cases, recapitalization lowers a company’s debt-to-equity proportion by exchanging securities with higher risk, and therefore higher interest payments, for new financial instruments that utilize the company’s strong points, such as steady cash flow or a strong customer base, to lower interest pay-outs and overall debt cost.
By using a recapitalization to lower the cost of debt without eliminating that liability altogether, business owners realize more liquidity, or available cash, to operate and expand their companies. Moreover, a recapitalization allows owners to maintain control of their company rather than exhausting the terms of an earlier venture capital agreement and introducing the possibility of a sale or takeover. Especially in a small or mid-sized business, recapitalization offers owners the chance to eliminate personal liability that takes over their net worth and limits their ability to obtain credit for family purposes.
In short, recapitalization offers numerous benefits. Essex Capital Group has more than 47 years of experience in investment banking. For more information about financial options that could fuel the growth of your company, visit http://www.essexcapitalgroup.com/index.html.

Doing things the wrong way round

In Greece, the cart is sometimes put before the horse with suboptimal results. This appears to be the case with the recapitalization of the banking sector, where local credit institutions are struggling to attract the minimum private capital required in the planned share capital increases to avoid nationalization. Apparently, things would have been much better both for the state and their shareholders if banks had restructured before recapitalization and not the other way around.
Greece has set aside public resources of 50 billion euros for the recapitalization process and resolution costs of the banking sector, with government and central bank officials saying the amount is sufficient to cover their current and expected capital needs until the end of 2014.
Greek Bank Chief Says Deposits Safe

“…….there would not be a confiscation tax on Greek bank deposits after the head of the Eurozone said the Cyprus model could be used in other countries. “This view is wrong,” Provopoulos said. “If there is a shortfall in revenues, this will be covered with fresh spending cuts,” he said, raising the possibility that Prime Minister Antonis Samaras could be forced to break another of his vows, not to impose any more austerity measures.
Provopoulos’ comments came as Athens readies for another visit of Troika inspectors who want to check progress on reforms before releasing a delayed 2.8 billion euros ($3.5 billion) loan installment. The envoys are demanding a faster pace, including privatization and the firing of 25,000 public workers this year.”

Healing banks’ health key to Greek crisis progress

While deposits in February stood at 164 billion euros, little changed from the same month a year earlier as lenders clawed back deposits lost in periods of electoral turmoil and bailout negotiations, total outstanding lending to private companies and households was down 8.9 percent. Banks’ reliance on the ECB and central bank emergency liquidity lines dropped to 91.9 billion euros in March from 96.4 billion euros a month earlier.
“There’s a solvency issue and a liquidity issue, and they’ve got to solve both,” said Exotix’s Sterne. “Austerity plus credit choke equals disaster.”
