TRG was hired by the Bank Group to analyze the Company's upcoming liquidity needs and identify mutually beneficial covenants to the forbearance agreement to maximize asset recovery. A store-by-store profitability analysis and comprehensive 26-week cash flow model clearly demonstrated the need for action. Results: TRG's accurate forecast of upcoming cash needs motivated management to radically restructure the business in a timely manner. The Bank Group has been completely paid-in-full. The chain has been rationalized and restructured to a significantly smaller size and continues as a viable operating entity.
