## Why it went into administration

- Creditor pressure / legal action
- Funding withdrawn / unable to refinance

## From the administrators' statement

As a result of growing sales, as outlined above, we understand the Companies invested in additional stock to meet increasing demand, and sought to improve its direct-toconsumer channels, including via improvements to its websites.

The Companies had been seeking to refinance their banking facilities since November 2022. During this period, a potential discrepancy within the Companies’ facilities was identified and accounts were frozen pending a full reconciliation.

The Companies immediately sought to accelerate their debt refinance options; however, given the Companies’ inability to access all available funds, at a time when cash reserves would already be typically lower due to trading seasonality, the Companies’ working capital position deteriorated and the Companies experienced increased creditor pressure.
