Paul Billingham, Said Jahani, Michael McCann and Matt Byrnes, all of Grant Thornton, have today been appointed as Voluntary Administrators of Arrium Limited and the majority of its Australian subsidiaries* (“Arrium” or “the Group”), following resolutions passed by the Boards of the affected companies.
The Australian and global Moly-Cop business is not affected by the appointment.
The Administrators will assume executive control immediately and, in conjunction with key stakeholders including employees, lenders, government and suppliers, undertake an urgent but comprehensive review of the core Australian steel and mining businesses.
“Voluntary Administration provides Arrium and its stakeholders time to develop options that will help preserve long term value and optimise the position of its creditors. Our focus will be to stabilise current trading, maintain business as usual across the Group’s affected operations, identify ways to restore the performance of key business units and develop an optimal solution that maximises the return to creditors.
“While we undertake our review of the business operations, we are conscious of the needs of all stakeholders and seek the support of customers, suppliers, lenders and employees so that Arrium can continue to operate on a business as usual basis,” said Paul Billingham, Managing Partner of Grant Thornton’s Australian Financial Advisory business.
The overseas operations of Arrium, principally the Moly-Cop business, should be largely unaffected by this appointment. However, they will also be supported by local Grant Thornton partners in each country as the Administrators develop an understanding of their needs to ensure that they too can operate on a business as usual basis while an appropriate strategy is developed.
The Administrators aim to run an efficient and transparent process that will also see a thorough and impartial investigation of the events and actions that have brought the Group to this position.
The Administrators will hold a first meeting of creditors within eight business days in accordance with the requirements of the Corporations Law. Creditors will receive further information by mail.
