Bankruptcy Express Webinar: Examining the Valuation of Public Companies in Connection with Fraudulent-Transfer and Related Litigation and Bankruptcy Proceedings

Bankruptcy Express Webinar: Examining the Valuation of Public Companies in Connection with Fraudulent-Transfer and Related Litigation and Bankruptcy Proceedings

Speaking Engagement

Several high-profile cases have been working their way through the courts in which bankruptcy trustees or creditor trusts created under bankruptcy plans have challenged multi-billion dollar spin-offs and other leveraged transactions as fraudulent transfers, even though in each case the debtor entity was a public company whose stock traded at substantial equity values immediately following the transaction.

At the forefront of these cases is how the public equity or debt market’s valuation of the company should be treated by the courts. The cases also implicate issues of valuation of broader application, such as the role of discounted cash flow and other methodologies that are not market based, and the relative importance of after-the-fact expert testimony versus that of contemporaneous market data.

On December 12, 2012, Michael Genereux, Senior Managing Director of Restructuring & Reorganization at Blackstone and WilmerHale Partner Philip Anker examined these important issues.
