Abstract

This is the first of a two-case series (199-001-1 and 199-002-1). This case examines the circumstances surrounding a serious downturn in the trading performance of a medium-sized family owned, painting and contracting business. Cash flow problems and a breakdown in trust between the company and its bankers threaten its future. The task is to evaluate the financial position of the company to assess the likelihood of the bank being willing to provide sufficient funds to enable its survival. This case was written with the support of a Philip Law Scholarship awarded by The Case Centre.
