Football debt us high risk so I'm sure I heard banks have an appetite to come to an arrangement that will get it off there books.
Happy to be corrected if what I'm saying isn't true or I've misunderstood what I thought I'd heard

Private arrangement with who? Was it not with the bank? That's what I thought buyhibs were trying to do?

As part of your proposals, Buy Hibs has stated that a dividend of up 10% would be offered to financial backers. Will this not take money out of the club into the private investor’s pockets?
This is the proposed (we will be revising downwards) that the CIC could return and we have included as a guideline for any potential investors that may be willing to provide a loan to BuyHibs and would require interest payments on their loan. This is not an investment opportunity for money makers. Investors will be Hibs people and we expect all monies to remain within the club.
This bit concerns me, why would we wanting to take on a loan (more debt)TOP CASH BACK

For the avoidance of doubt, the wages figure in the accounts includes all staff. That is football staff and admin.
The amount for football staff is not in the public domain. I do, though, remember the playing staff % being mentioned at the AGM in 2012. Can't remember if it was mentioned in 2013.

Thanks for the replies.
I'm confused though as to why a "10% dividend" rule is needed to allow the CIC to pay interest on a loan. Dividends are paid to shareholders, not to lenders. Unless I've picked this up wrongly?Mature, sensible signature required for responsible position. Good prospects for the right candidate. Apply within.

Kilmarnock sold the hotel and a couple of the directors cancelled existing loans to the club.

With the Owner "Stewart Milne Group" increasing his stake in the club with £4.5m.

I don't see why any bank would offer debt forgiveness when the value of the assets are roughly equivalent to/greater than the value of the loans and a clear timeline to pay the mortgages off. The club has £6.5m(?) mortgages, with ER and EM being worth at least that I would have said. This isn't 'bad debt' in the sense that debt far outweighs the assets and the debtor can't make the scheduled payments. It is a bit of a stretch for buyhibs to expect, and seem to budget for, the bank forgiving some of the debt.

Its common knowledge that the bank takes a "haircut" in these instances by agreeing a reduced figure making it worthwhile for both parties.
BuyHibs are hoping for the same although the bank's chances of being repaid and security in respect of our loan mean it might not be so easy to achieve.

On the matter of other clubs settling their debt, my opinion is that the banks saw those debts as vulnerable because they were secured on assets of diminishing value and the clubs themselves were close to insolvency. For those reasons the banks were happy to give a discount for immediate cash - they didn't just write off the debts for no reason. In our case the debts are secured by personal guarantee so if the club was to fail the bank would get their money anyway. That means they may look less favourably on a discount for immediate payment.
On a minor matter, they've misunderstood my question about converting the existing company to a CIC - converting the holding company needs a problem before it can be a solution, I was suggesting converting Hibernian FC Ltd to a CIC - that's the company that actually owns all the assets and fields a football team and the one whose share capital they're proposing to buy. If that was a CIC ER and EM would be locked into the club. They'd have to sell off the land a EM before conversion if they don't want to keep it though.

This whole thing reminds me of the French epigram, "plus ca change" but in this case, it appears that the more things stay the same, the more they change, if you know what I mean.

Brian Kennedy was hoping to get 3%p.a.from Rangers but was prepared to get none.The use of 10% is way above any kind of return available for a loan shows woolly thinking at best or ignorance at worst.There should be no mention of a dividend in any shape or form.What security would be offered to those making loans?Don't think that possibility has been mentioned anywhere.
