Reorganization Plan for AS PlusPlus Capital Rejected by Harju County Court

Appeal Pending for the Reorganization Plan

Tallinn, Estonia, 7 October 2024. PlusPlus Capital (“PPC”), a leading pan-Baltic and Finnish technology-driven receivables management group, was informed on 4 October 2024 of the denial of the Harju County Court (the “Court”) regarding the homologation of the reorganization plan (the “Plan”) of its parent company AS PlusPlus Capital (the “Parent Company”), which had received broad support from investors.

The Parent Company finds that the Court has based its rejection to a large extent on incomprehensible grounds, such as the broadly arbitrary and fact-distorting objections by Balcia Insurance SE, which accounts for only 0.2% of all claims covered by the Plan. In contrast, the creditors of the Parent Company, who have expressed their support for the restructuring by voting in favor of the Plan, represent more than 90% of all claims covered by the Plan.

However, as a result of the specifics of the reorganization proceedings of the Parent Company, the majority of creditors who supported the Plan cannot actively participate in the subsequent proceedings and express their support in favor of the Plan. Dissenting creditors, by contrast, may object to the Plan on an ongoing basis and throughout the entire proceedings.

Kaarel Raik, Member of the Management Board of PlusPlus Capital: “We consider questionable a decision in which the unconstructive criticism of a minority creditor with an insignificant stake takes precedence over the support of the majority of creditors regarding the feasibility of the reorganization plan of AS PlusPlus Capital and the financial forecasts contained therein. Accordingly, we will file an appeal against this decision in order to be able to resume the reorganization plan“.

Although a delay in the approval of the reorganization plan will inevitably postpone the start of the payments, AS PlusPlus Capital continues to take all reasonable measures to protect the interests of the creditors, primarily by building up necessary financial reserves to ensure that the delay caused by the court proceedings does not result in a corresponding extension of the timetable for the implementation of the plan in the future.

As a result of the rejection of the reorganization plan and the termination of the reorganization proceedings, the Harju County Court also appointed a temporary trustee for AS PlusPlus Capital at the request of Balcia Insurance SE. The trustee has been instructed to submit a report to the Court by 29 November 2024.

AS PlusPlus Capital does not consider itself to be permanently insolvent and therefore sees no reason to file for insolvency. After a first analysis of the Court's decision, AS PlusPlus Capital is optimistic that it will be granted permission to continue with the reorganization plan as part of an appeal, which would eliminate the need to file for bankruptcy, as Balcia Insurance SE had previously sought.

Kaarel Raik, Member of the Management Board of PlusPlus Capital: “We strongly believe that an insolvency scenario would be directly detrimental to the interests of our creditors, as it would result in a significantly lower recovery of claims compared to the proposed reorganization plan. We will therefore continue our efforts to find a mutually beneficial solution“.
