  • 99P STORES LIMITED

    CAPA to audit 250 stores on discount chain

    CAPA has been instructed to audit nearly 250 stores across discount chain 99p Stores Limited, which is now in administration.

    Alix Partners, the corporate restructuring and turnaround specialist, was appointed as administrators of 99p Stores in March, following a decision by the discount chain's owner, Poundland. Poundland acquired the company back in 2015.

    Alix Partners said the appointment supports a strategic decision by Poundland Group to operate its entire retail estate under the Poundland fascia. No staff are affected by the appointment.

    The administrators have now instructed CAPA to carry out a property audit on the chain, covering its 248-store portfolio.

    This will involve a forensic analysis of 99p Stores' vast property outgoings and data on invoices owed to the business. CAPA’s auditors will use bespoke software to uncover multiple elements such as errors in utility bills, or ‘overspend’ by the companies on various payments. This in turn will help generate cash for the business.

  • JAEGER

    CAPA instructed on more than 50 Jaeger store leases

     

    CAPA has been instructed by Alix Partners, the corporate restructuring and turnaround specialist, to advise them on the leasehold retail portfolio of Jaeger - the fashion brand now in administration. This comprised over 50 sites in central London and affluent market towns.

    Peter Saville, Ryan Grant and Catherine Williamson of Alix Partners were appointed joint administrators of Jaeger in April, after the owner of the business, Better Capital, was unable to attract suitable offers to buy the company.

    In May, Edinburgh Woollen Mill (EWM), the owner of multiple fashion brands, acquired the Jaeger brand and stock and secured a licence to occupy in order to ‘trial’ the stores.

    As part of the process CAPA marketed all stores, leading to substantial premium offers and disposal of certain stores not retained by EWM.
