General economic characteristics of the company

Average turnover over the last 5 years: approx. CZK 250,000,000.

The company is currently unprofitable and in crisis.

The main reason for the company’s crisis is secondary insolvency. That is, the company is in a state of secondary insolvency when it is unable to pay its debts due to unpaid receivables from debtors (customers).

The loss for 2023 amounted to MSEK 3.5 million. In 2022, a loss of CZK 2.8 million.

The total amount of debts is about CZK 14,000,000,000. These are mainly overdue debts against suppliers.

The company has no debts towards banks and state institutions.

On the other hand, the company has rather large assets in the form of receivables from debtors totaling more than CZK 17 million, as well as assets in the form of goods in stock totaling about CZK 5.2 million.

  • Total current assets: approximately CZK 22.2 million
  • Total debt: about CZK 15.0 million

More detailed information about the economics of the company being sold, accounting records, legal documents will be provided upon request of the potential buyer.

Transaction format and the company’s operations after the change of ownership

The subject of the sale is 100% of shares in a joint stock company (a.s.).

Price: CZK 15,000,000.

The following options for the sale of the company may be considered:

  1. From the amount of CZK 15 million received for the sale of the company’s shares, the existing debts of the company will be fully repaid by the current owners and the company will be transferred to the new owners without debts.
  2. The new owner, buying the company for less than the amount specified in clause 1, will assume a written obligation to repay the company’s debts in the future at the expense of its own investments, internal reserves, as well as in the process of revitalization (recovery) of the company.

The top management and employees of the company are ready to continue their work even after the change of the owner, but for the seller the best option seems to be the change of the company’s management after its acquisition by the new owner. In this case, the current management of the company is ready to assist the new management in integration during the transition period (by separate agreement with the new owner).

The purity of the transaction, the absence of hidden financial and legal obligations is guaranteed by the personal responsibility of the owners, the process of gradual transfer of management in accordance with the agreement, legal mechanisms and regulations provided for in the Czech Republic.
