The challenge
What needed to change
The founders were focused on a transaction, while the operating company still needed accountable leadership, steady reporting and coordination with its stakeholders and regulator.
The approach
How this result was achieved
-
Provide day-to-day leadership
The engagement account describes an interim CEO appointment to maintain operational decisions through the sale period.
-
Protect operating continuity
Kept core operational processes and commercial reporting in focus while founders and advisers handled the strategic transaction.
-
Coordinate stakeholders
Managed the relationship between the operating team, stakeholders and regulator during diligence.
-
Maintain the revenue plan
Used the existing performance plan as the reference point for the reported commercial result while the transaction progressed.
The reported outcome
The archived summary reports a nine-month appointment, revenue 18% above plan and a sale that closed on preferred terms. Those statements have not been reconciled against public financial or transaction records.
