Oaklins team in Vienna advised the seller in this transaction. Prior to this, the team was mandated in 2012 by Hypo Alpe-Adria-Bank International AG to perform an independent business review for refinancing purposes of the target. Based on the outcome, our team was mandated to make an operative and financial restructuring and was asked to take over a trustee function for an envisaged sell-side process. After an insolvency plan process, the transaction was closed in April 2014.
