Distressed Debt, Restructurings and Workouts CLE: 2018 Outlook

To learn more about this webcast please visit our website:

In the second half of 2017, the distressed and restructuring communities witnessed a slew of key judicial opinions that concern some of the most material and contentious components of today’s Chapter 11 landscape, including makewhole premiums and cramdown interest rates (Momentive Performance Materials), nonconsensual third-party releases (Millennium Health) and plan gifting (Nuverra). These decisions will likely not only have a material impact on recoveries that secured and unsecured creditors are entitled to receive as part of a company’s Chapter 11 reorganization, but also how and where companies will conduct their complex, in-court restructurings in 2018. During this course, the panel will revisit these decisions, analyze the rulings and discuss the impact that they may have on 2018’s restructuring landscape.

Business restructurings, bankruptcies, and reorganizations create distressed debt investing opportunities. This webinar will address recent developments in Federal Income Tax with respect to market discount, cancellation of indebtedness income, original issue discount, and debt restructurings involving disregarded entities.
