Company administration is a formal insolvency procedure where an insolvent company is placed under the control of a licensed insolvency practitioner in Nottinghamshire, known as the administrator.
The administrator takes over management of the business to rescue it, sell its assets, or achieve a better outcome for creditors than immediate liquidation in Nottinghamshire.
Administration is appropriate when a company is unable to pay its debts in Nottinghamshire, but has underlying value in its operations, contracts, or assets.
It is often used when legal action from creditors is imminent, such as a winding-up petition, or when there is a genuine chance of business recovery or sale in Nottinghamshire.
The key benefit of administration is that it gives the company legal breathing space from creditors, allowing directors and administrators to work on a recovery strategy in Nottinghamshire.
Other benefits in Nottinghamshire include:
Automatic moratorium to stop legal action in Nottinghamshire
Option to rescue the business through restructuring in Nottinghamshire
Improved returns for creditors in Nottinghamshire
Protection of jobs and contracts in Nottinghamshire
Potential for pre-pack sale or business continuity in Nottinghamshire
Allows for an orderly exit if rescue isn’t viable in Nottinghamshire
Company administration initially lasts for 12 months in Nottinghamshire, although it can be extended with court approval or creditor consent.
Most outcomes, such as sale, liquidation, or Company Voluntary Arrangement (CVA) in Nottinghamshire are finalised well before the end of the 12-month period.
The administrator takes full control of the company’s affairs in Nottinghamshire.
They assess the company’s position, communicate with creditors, manage operations (if trading continues), and implement the most beneficial outcome, whether that is rescue, sale, or closure in Nottinghamshire.
In many cases, the company continues to trade under the administrator’s control in Nottinghamshire.
This is done to preserve value, complete contracts in Nottinghamshire, or maintain goodwill while a buyer is found or restructuring is arranged.
A pre-pack administration is where a pre-arranged sale in Nottinghamshire of the company’s assets is completed immediately after entering administration.
This is used to preserve the business and jobs in Nottinghamshire while avoiding the uncertainty of open-market asset sales.
Administration does not automatically write off debts in Nottinghamshire.
However, unsecured creditors are usually paid a proportion of what they’re owed from asset sales, and the remaining debts may be cleared through a subsequent liquidation or CVA in Nottinghamshire.
As in all insolvency procedures, the administrator in Nottinghamshire must review the conduct of the directors in the lead-up to insolvency.
As long as directors have acted properly, there is usually no cause for concern or penalty in Nottinghamshire.
Directors can appoint an administrator out of court if no winding-up petition has been issued in Nottinghamshire.
If legal action has already begun in Nottinghamshire, you must apply through the courts.
The cost of administration varies based on the size and complexity of the business in Nottinghamshire.
