CLIENT SUCCESS STORIES 

Josuda Corp. d/b/a Shade Tree Powersports

Middlefield, Ohio and Big Lake, Minnesota

 

Situation: The company peacefully surrendered its assets, which included inventory from two locations and a distribution center, to a secured creditor.

 

Actions: HYPERAMS’ team reopened the store and restarted the webstore, which had both been shut down for three months. After significant success in the Ohio location, HYPERAMS also opened the shuttered Minnesota location that had been closed for over eight months with a significant amount of unsold product.

Results: HYPERAMS’ strategy to reopen the physical stores and the e-store resulted in a superior net recovery for the secured lender over any bulk purchase offers it had received.

Sale Strategy Achieved Superior Results Over Bulk Purchase Offers

Fields

Central and Western Canada 

 

Situation: Parent company Hudson’s Bay Co. decided to exit its general merchandise banner Fields. Hudson’s Bay was able to sell a portion of the stores to a going concern buyer, and needed to close the remaining 84 stores. 

Actions: HYPERAMS conducted a store closing sale over a five-month period, staggering the store closing sales by market to provide the most efficient cost recovery while selling through millions of dollars of inventory in the supply chain.

Results: HYPERAMS exceeded its projected net recovery value as a percentage of cost by more than 5.0%.

Staggered Store Closing Strategy Reduced Expenses and Increased Recovery Values

Fox & Obel

Chicago, Illinois 

Situation: Restaurant equipment retailer filed for Chapter 7 Bankruptcy and shuttered its doors immediately.

Actions: After the store had been closed for a week, HYPERAMS reopened the store within two days to conduct a highly successful three-day store closing sale. After the sale, HYPERAMS set up a live/webcast auction for the equipment.

Results: HYPERAMS sold 98% of the inventory during the store closing sale, with the remaining inventory and equipment sold during the auction. HYPERAMS returned the property to the landlord empty and in good condition. The client recovered 40% more in proceeds by holding the three-day store closing event prior to the auction and exceeded expectations in the sale of fixed assets.
