State of Distressed Debt: Houlihan Lokey’s Tuck Hardie Is Back
Description
“It may or may not be good ... or binding precedent, but I think ConvergeOne will actually make the holdout risk worse because the minority lenders will now point to it and say ‘Sorry pal, you can’t jam this down my throat in court, so you’re not jamming it down my throat out of court either,’” says Houlihan Lokey Managing Director Tuck Hardie. He joins Bloomberg Intelligence’s Noel Hebert and Phil Brendel on this episode of the State of Distressed Debt podcast to review the workout landscape, sponsors’ exit strategies and LME trends. Prior to that, Phil and Noel reflect on high yield’s run and current vulnerability. To conclude, BI’s Negisa Balluku discusses the latest developments in First Brands, Spirit Airlines, Lifescan and Incora, while Phil reviews 2025 Prepack Plan Performances and Ardagh Group.
The State of Distressed Debt podcast is part of BI’s FICC Focus series. Listen on Apple Podcasts and Spotify.
Also, a heads up! Negisa and Phil will be at the Beard Group’s 32nd Annual Distressed Investing Conference on Dec. 2-3, 2025. We are excited to hear from the top professionals on the latest machinations in distressed investing.
