El equipo de Distressed M&A de Livingstone ha asesorado de forma exclusiva al equipo directivo de <\/strong>Franz W\u00f6lfer Elektromaschinenfabrik Osnabr\u00fcck GmbH<\/strong><\/a> en su venta a <\/strong>MENZEL Elektromotoren GmbH<\/strong><\/a>, en el contexto de un proceso de insolvencia.<\/strong><\/p>

Franz W\u00f6lfer Elektromaschinenfabrik Osnabr\u00fcck GmbH, fundada en 1945, es l\u00edder del mercado en la producci\u00f3n de motores el\u00e9ctricos para su uso en tecnolog\u00eda de elevaci\u00f3n para el sector naval y en ingenier\u00eda mec\u00e1nica en general. El negocio principal de la empresa, que se distingue por su experiencia artesanal, es la producci\u00f3n de motores personalizados (especiales) con un elevado valor a\u00f1adido. La producci\u00f3n de motores el\u00e9ctricos altamente resistentes al calor y al fr\u00edo se lleva a cabo exclusivamente en Alemania.<\/p>

Tras hacer frente a dificultades financieras persistentes, el 17 de enero de 2019, ante el tribunal del distrito de Osnabr\u00fcck, la compa\u00f1\u00eda Franz W\u00f6lfer entr\u00f3 en concurso de acreedores y fue nombrado administrador concursal el abogado Stefan Meyer del despacho PLUTA Rechtsanwalts GmbH en L\u00fcbbecke.<\/p>

Franz W\u00f6lfer opera en base a proyectos, lo que a veces requiere altos costes de prefinanciaci\u00f3n a largo plazo. A pesar de tener un volumen importante de encargos lleg\u00f3 el momento en el que faltaron los recursos financieros para cubrir su producci\u00f3n. A finales de enero, siguiendo indicaciones del administrador concursal el equipo directivo de la compa\u00f1\u00eda contrat\u00f3 a Livingstone para estructurar un proceso de M&A apuntando a la b\u00fasqueda de inversores.<\/p>

\u201cEstoy muy contento por los empleados y la compa\u00f1\u00eda porque han encontrado una soluci\u00f3n a largo plazo tan solo cinco meses despu\u00e9s de la intervenci\u00f3n de la administraci\u00f3n concursal. Las medidas de reestructuraci\u00f3n necesarias han sido aplicadas de manera firme, y concluidas por el equipo directivo por lo que ahora podemos despegar\u201d, <\/em>dijo el abogado Silvio H\u00f6fer<\/strong>, quien dirige la compa\u00f1\u00eda como Director de Reestructuraci\u00f3n junto con el Director General Josef Winkels.<\/p>

En el transcurso de la administraci\u00f3n concursal la actividad comercial se mantuvo hasta estabilizarse en el momento de la implementaci\u00f3n de las medidas de reestructuraci\u00f3n necesarias. El Grupo Menzel, que se ha hecho cargo de la mayor\u00eda de las acciones, es un inversor con sede en Berlin y un socio ideal para Franz W\u00f6lfer debido a las sinergias compartidas y por su capacidad de reforzar la situaci\u00f3n financiera de la compa\u00f1\u00eda, y aportar experiencia.<\/p>

\u201cEstoy convencido del potencial de esta empresa familiar porque tiene productos avanzados de alta calidad, excelentes relaciones con los clientes y recursos humanos fuertes, altamente motivados y comprometidos\u201d,<\/em> dijo Mathis Menzel, Director General del Grupo Menzel<\/strong>. El Grupo Menzel cont\u00f3 con el asesoramiento legal del bufete berlin\u00e9s K\u00f6hler-Ma de GT Restructuring.<\/p>

Los 85 empleados mantendr\u00e1n su puesto de trabajo, y explica el abogado Stefan Meyer: \u201cEstoy contento de que se haya generado mucho inter\u00e9s por la adquisici\u00f3n de Franz W\u00f6lfer en un proceso de M&A donde los candidatos valoraron el mercado y la situaci\u00f3n de la compa\u00f1\u00eda. Con Grupo Menzel encontramos una buena soluci\u00f3n para los acreedores y para Franz W\u00f6lfer\u201d.<\/em><\/p>

El Dr. Andr\u00e9 Schr\u00f6er, Socio de Livingstone<\/strong>, a\u00f1adi\u00f3: \u201cCon Grupo Menzel hemos encontrado un inversor y al mismo tiempo un socio para la compa\u00f1\u00eda, que no solo promete un ajuste estrat\u00e9gico s\u00f3lido sino tambi\u00e9n visibilidad para el futuro\u201d.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
