The Tron Group, established in 1997, is a Boston-based private equity and consulting firm providing advisory services and investment capital to underperforming and financially distressed companies.

Tron's Advisory Practice provides consulting services and interim management to underperforming businesses, and advisory services to company creditors. Our consulting services include: developing and implementing turnaround plans; refinancing of debt and equity; crisis management; cash flow and liquidity management; divesture of underperforming assets and business units; management of creditor relationships; operational improvements; and providing interim management for CEO, CFO and Chief Restructuring Officer positions. Creditor services include: assessment of going concern viability; collateral valuation; sale and liquidation of assets; and consulting to Creditor Committees.

Tron Capital, Tron's Private Equity Group, has entered into an investment partnership, TPG/Tron Capital Partners, with The Procaccianti Group ("TPG" at www.procgroup.com). TPG is a Rhode Island based real estate investment company which has owned or developed over $4 billion of real estate. TPG/Tron Capital has $100 million of capital available to invest in the debt and equity securities of (i) stalled or non-performing multi-unit residential and commercial real estate properties, and (ii) distressed or underperforming operating companies primarily in the manufacturing, distribution and services industries. The focus is on businesses and properties in the Eastern United States which are experiencing liquidity problems as well as negative trends in operating and financial metrics. Some are also operating in bankruptcy or under a forbearance agreement with their creditors.

To maintain the independence of its Advisory Practice, Tron does not invest in any companies where it is engaged to provide advisory services.
