Distressed M&A & Section 363 Sale Advisory
Financial advisory support for Section 363 sales and distressed M&A transactions — structuring, DIP financing strategy, and court-ready analysis.
What Is a Section 363 Sale?
When a distressed business needs to sell assets quickly — inside or outside of a Chapter 11 proceeding — a Section 363 sale can allow a buyer to acquire assets free and clear of most liens and claims, often on a timeline measured in weeks rather than months. Structuring a defensible process, securing interim financing to fund operations through the sale, and preparing the financial analysis courts and creditors expect all require experienced, hands-on financial advisory alongside legal counsel.

Distressed M&A & Section 363 — Frequently Asked Questions
What is a Section 363 sale?
A Section 363 sale is a sale of a debtor's assets conducted under Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code, typically approved by the bankruptcy court, that can allow a buyer to acquire assets free and clear of most existing liens and claims.
How is a Section 363 sale different from a normal acquisition?
A 363 sale follows a court-supervised process on a compressed timeline, often involving competitive bidding procedures, and the financial and legal case for the sale must withstand review by the court, creditors, and other parties in interest.
What is DIP financing?
Debtor-in-possession (DIP) financing is financing extended to a company after a Chapter 11 filing, typically approved by the bankruptcy court, used to fund operations through the restructuring or sale process.
Do you represent buyers or sellers?
We advise companies, and in some engagements their lenders or creditors, on the financial aspects of distressed sale and financing transactions — always working alongside legal counsel.
