ICSM's November News Update - including a listing of who has gone bust in runners and riders

Welcome to our November Newsletter

I have said it for months that when the furlough scheme ends in September many 'zombie firms' would go under once their life support is withdrawn. Now the Insolvency Service have confirmed my worst feats with a 56% increase year on year of failing companies for September. And I can only advise that in the coming months many more firms will call it a day due to a number of reasons. Debt is the big one, but also a loss of trade due to the lockdowns and changes in working practices. With many workers staying at home to work rather than heading into town there's been a drop in business for cafes, sandwich shops, pubs, coffee rooms, newsagents and small shops and 9/11 outlets. Then there's labour shortages and fewer HGV drivers causing problems across the sectors.

So if you are waiting in vain for payment from your struggling clients and customers act now to make sure you get paid by using our FREE 90 day membership and FREE legal letters that get results from accounts departments that have put some payments on stop.

Complete them online and send them off and you will find that the vast majority of times you get paid soon afterwards due to the escalating pressure on the debtor. If there is still no payment then our debt collection sector can help. They pull in hundreds of thousands of pounds for our members - often on invoices members have given up on. 

I have seen and survived four recessions and believe me cash flow is king. It's your money - you've supplied the goods and services to your customer - so ensure you get paid with our help.

Surge in insolvencies as furlough ends
ICSM has predicted for weeks that there would be a rise in business collapses once the Chancellor Rishi Sunak’s money ran out. Money that is the furlough scheme that has pumped billions into companies to get them through the covid crisis.

Ian Carrotte of ICSM said 1,446 companies had gone under in September – a 7.2% increase on the previous month as the scheme came to an end. He said: “It is no surprise these firms are going bust as many have not been able to trade due to the lockdowns, HGV driver shortage, labour shortages and debts as their overheads still have to be paid. Overall September’s figures are more than 50% up from the same month in 2020.”

The Insolvency Service said: “A recent Bank of England report found that a third of UK’s small businesses were classified as highly indebted with debt levels of more than 10 times their cash balances, compared with 14% before Covid-19.”

Ian Carrotte said too many firms were allowing companies in trouble to have extended credit terms with little prospect of being paid if they go into administration. He said: “We have been offering free ICSM membership and free legal letters this autumn so to help firms get paid. The legal letters often do the trick as they come from ICSM – one of the most respected credit intelligence groups in the UK. And our debt collecting service pulls in hundreds of thousands in unpaid invoices for members every year. If you don’t get paid – don’t delay.”



Largest failure since Carillion
Building firm NMCN has collapsed into administration after failing to sign off its 2020 accounts and secure a re-financing of the business. Reporting in Construction News last month David Price wrote: “The utilities-focused outfit confirmed that it had filed notice of its intention to appoint Grant Thornton as administrator of the £400m-turnover business. NMCN has unveiled a string of growing profit warnings over the past year, and expected to report a pre-tax loss of around £43m for 2020. Its collapse is the biggest corporate failure in the construction sector since Carillion went bust in January 2018.”

He reported that ‘the administration concerns the parent company of the group, NMCN PLC, and its NMCN Sustainable Solutions Limited subsidiary.’ He added: “The group said its other subsidiaries were not ‘currently’ affected and that NMCN had received offers from interested buyers to take them over as going concerns. The remaining subsidiaries are expected to be sold during the administration process, with the proceeds being used to settle creditor claims. Shareholders are not expected to receive any dividends from the process.”

ICSM understand the firm was expecting to report a pre-tax loss of around £43m for 2020. Ian Carrotte said this was the largest corporate failure in the construction industry since 2018 when Carillion went bust owing many millions of pounds.



West firm owed £2.5m
Last month Plymouth's URBN Construction went bust owing 182 creditors a total of £2.5 million. William Telford of Plymouth Live reported: “URBN Construction left just £44,400 in assets, but was faced with claims totalling more than £2.5m for money owed. Even the taxman, HM Revenue and Customs, will not receive the full £345,687 it is due, despite being a preferential creditor. And 20 former employees are unlikely to see any of the £65,262 that is owed to them.”

Ian Carrotte of ICSM said that around 2,000 building firms had collapsed since 2019 and the start of the Covid-19 crisis.

Plymouth Live said creditors included Burrington Estates (New Homes) Ltd, owed £51,462, while MEP Systems Ltd, based in Estover, Plymouth, was owed £159,523, Plymouth’s YGS Landscapes Ltd is £37,669 out of pocket, Westcountry Fabrication Ltd were taken for £87,333.Others included Exeter’s System Six Kitchens are owed £119,338, Pavilion Construction Ltd, in Newton Abbot, lost £93,179, builders merchants RGB Holdings Ltd, were hit with a £59.135 loss, and Ashburton’s Devon Tarmasters (SW) Ltd was owed £33,943.



Fashion insolvencies
The Covid-19 lockdowns that forced many businesses to close appears to have claimed another victim in the fashion store Roland Mouret based in London’s West End. The high-end luxury store is widely reported as being on the brink of appointing administrators.

The Sunday Times reported Roland Mouret filed the notice due to the slump in sales of their designer dresses. Roland Mouret is owned by designer Roland Mouret and businessman Simon Fuller and their landlord Grosvenor Estates. Other fashion stores killed off by the lockdowns and a switch to online shopping include Laura Ashley, Debenhams, Jaeger, Ralph & Russo and Oasis.

Types of Insolvency
Administration
Administration applies to limited companies and partnerships and is intended to get the company out of trouble and trading again if possible. Administrators can be appointed to a company that is unable, or is likely to become unable, to pay its debts. They can be appointed by the courts (on application from a creditor, directors or partners), the holder of a qualifying floating charge over the assets of the business, or the company or its directors. An administrator's primary goal is to rescue the company as a going concern. If this isn't possible, the administrator will try to get a better result for the creditors than would be possible if the company was wound up. If neither of these is possible, the administrator will sell the company's property to make at least a partial payment to one or more secured or preferential creditors, such as employees or the bank.
Administrators Meetings Para 51
This statement by the administrator of his proposals must be accompanied by an invitation to an initial creditors' meeting (Sch B1, para 51(1)).
Bankruptcy
This can only apply to individuals (including sole traders and individual members of a partnership). Bankruptcy petitions may be presented to the court by the individual, by creditors who are owed £750 or more, or by the supervisor of an individual voluntary arrangement. A bankruptcy order is made by the court.
Company Voluntary Arrangement (CVA)
A company comes to an arrangement with its creditors to pay the debts in full or in part over time. A CVA begins with the company (or its adviser) drafting a formal proposal at a Creditors' Meeting to pay part or all of the debts. If the proposal is accepted by the creditors, the arrangement will become legally binding and the directors will retain control of the company.
Compulsory Liquidation
This is the winding up of a company or a partnership by a court order (a winding up order). A petition is normally presented to the court by a creditor stating that he or she is owed a sum of money by the company and that the company cannot pay.
The Official Receiver becomes liquidator when the order is made but an Insolvency Practitioner will be appointed to take over if the company has significant assets. The liquidator's role is to realise the company's assets, pay all the fees and charges arising from the liquidation, and pay the creditors as far as funds allow in a strict order of priority.
Compulsory Liquidators Appointed S 136
When a winding-up order has been made, the Official Receiver is initially appointed as liquidator (section 136, IA 1986). The company's creditors and contributories may appoint another individual, who must be a registered insolvency practitioner, to act as liquidator (section 139, IA 1986). More than one liquidator can be appointed to act jointly.
Creditors' Voluntary Liquidation
Here the shareholders pass a resolution to wind the company up without the need for a court order. A Creditors' Meeting is held to nominate the appointment of a liquidator and consider a statement of affairs. Creditors can appoint a committee to work with the liquidator, whose role is to realise the company's assets, pay all the fees and charges arising from the liquidation, and pay the creditors as far as funds allow in a strict order of priority.
Creditors' Voluntary Liquidation Deemed in Consent Meeting
Creditors are now 'deemed to have consented' to a decision or resolution if 10% of creditors (by value) have not objected to it. In other words, if objections are not received by the specified decision date, creditors are 'deemed to have consented' to the decision or resolution.
Individual Voluntary Arrangement (IVA)
An individual comes to an arrangement with creditors to pay his/her debts in full or in part over time as an alternative to bankruptcy. The arrangement is set up by a licensed Insolvency Practitioner who will put it to a meeting of creditors. If the proposal is accepted at the meeting, the agreement reached with the creditors will be legally binding. An Interim Order is sometimes issued by a court and will immediately protect the debtor from any legal action by creditors.
Petitions to Wind Up
A winding up petition is a legal notice put forward to the court by a creditor. The application, in effect, asks the court to liquidate the company as they believe the company is insolvent. Proceeds of the liquidation can be used to pay back creditors.
