From the administrators' statement
The Directors of the Company engaged KR8 Advisory Ltd to advise on its financial position and the options available following receipt of a statutory demand. It is understood that the Directors were also taking their own legal advice at this time.
The Company was unable to discharge the statutory demand in full, and it was determined that in the absence of a reduced settlement agreement being reached with the landlord creditor, the Company would be insolvent on a cashflow basis, as it was unable to meet its liabilities as and when they fell due.
Having regard to their fiduciary duties and the advice received, the Directors confirmed their intention to file a NOIA.
