Chief Restructuring Officer  ·  Middle Market

PRH seeks mandates where executive leadership is intact and the company is committed to financial restructuring as the path forward.

Cutting costs limits what a business can do.
Restructuring the balance sheet frees it.

When cash is constrained and the business plan is solid, PRH will co-invest fees, working alongside management towards a favorable exit. That way, cash stays in the business where it is needed most.

A Different Kind of Partner

Who Knew the CRO Could Be
the CEO's Greatest Advocate

To the CEO:

I have been in your room many times. Not as a visitor, but as the person brought in when the situation has become untenable and the board is demanding a change.

I know what you are worth. Not what the board thinks right now, or what the lenders are saying in conversations you are not invited to. What you are actually worth to this business. And more importantly, what you will be worth to the business when my work is over.

I am not your replacement. I am your partner for the hardest season this business will face.

And when it is over, when the balance sheet is restructured and the creditors are managed and the business has runway again, you will be more important than me. Because you stayed. Because you knew this business was worth fighting for and you had the conviction to stay and fight for it.

I am not taking over the business. I am taking over its debt. And I will hand back a company to you that is more free to operate and to execute your vision.
