Debtor in Possession
Unless there is a reason to appoint a trustee, the debtor corporation’s management is permitted to continue to run the company while in bankruptcy.
The Debtor in Possession has the same responsibilities as a trustee in a reorganization case.
Copyright ©2012 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Prentice Hall
18-16
Creditors’ CommitteeThe Creditors’ Committee is elected in a liquidation case, and is appointed in a reorganization case from the largest unsecured creditors. Makes decisions on behalf of all
creditors Reviews ongoing transactions of the
debtor in possession and can object Handles negotiations with any creditor
regarding settlement or continued business.
Copyright ©2012 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Prentice Hall
Benefits of Chapter 11
Benefits of being the Debtor in Possession include: Rejecting executory contracts Cancelling unexpired leases Legal protection from creditor action, such
as lawsuits or repossession of property
However, day-to-day operations may become more difficult as lenders, suppliers, customers, and employees are aware of the bankruptcy filing.
18-17
Copyright ©2012 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Prentice Hall
Reorganization PlanA plan may be filed at the time of the bankruptcy filing (“prepackaged bankruptcy”) or by the debtor corporation within 120 days of filing. Other interested parties may file proposed plans after 120 days. Identify classes of claims Specify the expected payout of each class Claims within a given class must be treated
alike Define the expected requirements for
execution of the plan Must be fair and equitable

18-23
Corporate Liquidations and Reorganizations
Copyright ©2012 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Prentice Hall
18-24
Reorganization Value
Approximates fair value of entity without considering liabilities Discounted future cash flows of reorganized
business Consider business and financial risk
Reorganization value determines how much creditors recover
Emerging business will either use1. Fresh start reporting2. Report liabilities at present value and
forgiveness of debt as extraordinary item
Copyright ©2012 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Prentice Hall
18-25
Fresh-Start Reporting
Fresh-Start Reporting recognizes that the emerging company is a new entity.
To qualify,1. Revaluation value immediately before the
reorganization plan is confirmed must be less than post-petition liabilities and allowed claims, and
2. Holders of existing voting shares receive less than 50% of emerging entity
Copyright ©2012 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Prentice Hall
18-26
Apply Fresh Start ReportingAllocated reorganization value to identifiable assets
Unallocated amount is an intangible called “Reorganization value in excess of amounts allocated to identifiable assets”
Liabilities at current value at confirmation date Deferred tax benefits are first applied to reduce any
intangible asset recorded
Prepare final reports of old entity The effects of adjustments to asset and liability
accounts are shown, so that ending balance sheet of old entity = beginning balance sheet of new entity
Copyright ©2012 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Prentice Hall
Continued Reporting of Old Company
If a company does not qualify for Fresh-Start Reporting, then
Report liabilities at the appropriate interest rate under GAAP
Report debt forgiveness as an extraordinary item

Reorganization Example
Tig files for protection under Chapter 11 on January 5, 2011. Accordingly, it reclassifies prepetition liabilities obtains short-term financing acquires additional equipment continues operations through June 30, 2012
when the plan is approved, with a reorganization value of $2,200
First, we'll look at the statements pre and post reorganization. Then we'll go through the entries and adjustments that occurred.

Changes to Assets
Fair values and revaluation amounts are shown on 6/30/12 for comparison.Tig continues operations, records depreciation, and even acquires equipment from filing on 1/5/11 to reorganization on 6/30/12.
The reorganization revalues the assets to their fair value on that date. Patents are completely written off.
Tig records an intangible "Reorganization value in excess of identifiable assets" of $250. Not all reorganizations result in this intangible.

18-32
Changes to LiabilitiesUpon filing on 1/5/11, Tig reclassifies the unsecured and partially secured liabilities at that point as Pre-petition Liabilities Subject to Compromise.
Pre-petition Liabilities Subject to Compromise are then reclassified or settled according to the plan.
Accounts payable on 12/31/11 does not include any of the $600 due prior to filing.
Taxes payable are still to be paid, and eventually recorded again in full.
Copyright ©2012 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Prentice Hall
18-33
Changes to Equity
Some of the creditors receive stock in the reorganized firm. The old shareholders also receive stock, but now own only $100 of $800 of the stock at book value.
Although some APIC was recorded in reorganizing, it was subsequently eliminated. If it had been sufficient to wipe out the deficit, no intangible "reorganization value in excess of identifiable assets" would be recorded.
The Deficit is removed!

18-34
Can Tig Use Fresh Start?
On 6/30/12 there were $255 in post-petition liabilities. All $2,300 pre-petition liabilities were allowed by the courts. Firm value is $2,200.
1. Liabilities exceed reorganization value2. Old shareholders retain less than 50%
Yes, fresh start is appropriate.
Post-petition liabilities $255 Allowed claims 2,300 Total liabilities $2,555 Less reorganization value (2,200)Excess liabilities $355

Calculate Balance in Retained Earnings (Deficit)
If sufficient APIC had existed, there would be no intangible asset, and excess APIC would remain on the balance sheet.
Deficit, 6/30/12 (1,000)
Gain on debt discharge 455
Loss on asset revaluation (105)
Final measure of deficit, 6/30/12 ($650)
Write-off Additional paid in capital 400 Reorganization value in excess of identifiable assets (intangible asset) ($250)
Copyright ©2012 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Prentice Hall
18-40
Eliminate Deficit in Equity
The $1,000 deficit on 6/30/12 is adjusted for the gain on debt discharge and loss on asset revaluation. The net $650 deficit eliminates all of the APIC and creates a $250 intangible.
Reorganization value in excess of identifiable assets 250
Gain on debt discharge 455
Additional paid in capital 400
Loss on asset revaluation 105
Deficit 1,000

18-41
Simplifying Assumptions
All transactions are recorded on 6/30/12.
Generally this takes some time. Creditors may have interest between
submission and approval of plan. All pre-petition debt is approved. The $2,200 reorganization value of the
firm probably used a discounted cash flow firm valuation model.
