Background

About Walter Simson

I lead turnarounds for distressed middle market companies, restoring stability and cash flow. I step in when the situation is critical (cash is tight, profitability has collapsed, or a lender has stepped away). My focus is on core products/core customers and helping the team take decisive action. I have led turnarounds for more than 60 distressed middle market companies, restoring stability, cash flow and sustainable growth. I help CEOs with their most critical challenges, from cash flow and profitability to strategy and leadership. My work begins when the situation seems critical: when cash is tight, profitability has collapsed or a lender is stepping away. That's the moment the turnaround starts.I focus on what matters: core products, core customers, and a cost-efficient strategy around what drives value. Then we execute with speed and clarity. I use proven methodologies for operational transformation, scaling and crisis recovery. These are tools I've applied as both CEO and CFO at successful PE-backed companies.If you or someone you know is facing a crisis, I'm always open to a confidential conversation at no charge and with no expectations.
