    Hidrovias do Brasil: Navigating Unchartered Waters: Video Supplement

    Boris Groysberg and Sarah L. Abbott

    Since its founding eight years earlier, Hidrovias do Brasil (“Hidrovias”), an integrated logistics provider serving corporate customers exporting products from South America via the Atlantic Ocean, had grown to 900 employees and $253 million in annual revenues. Hidrovias was founded by the Brazilian private equity firm, Pátria Investments, who had built the business from the ground up, forging and nurturing relationships with customers, investors, government entities, and suppliers. As Bruno Serapiao, Hidrovias’s CEO pondered next steps for the company, he considered: What had been the key drivers of Hidrovias’s success to date? What were the major challenges? And, what was the best path for the company going forward?

    Houghton Mifflin Harcourt

    Stuart C. Gilson and Sarah L. Abbott

    One of the leading publishers of textbooks and other educational materials for the U.S. K-12 educational instruction market has suffered a dramatic decline in sales and profits in the wake of the 2008-2009 financial market crisis and economic recession, and is now overburdened with debt. To regain its competitiveness the company has to significantly reduce its debt, by billions of dollars. Company management is trying to decide which of several options is best for achieving this goal, including filing for Chapter 11 bankruptcy, restructuring its debt out-of-court, or filing a “pre-packaged” Chapter 11 bankruptcy.

    Keywords: Restructuring; Capital Structure; Financial Crisis; Insolvency and Bankruptcy; Decision Choices and Conditions; Publishing Industry; Massachusetts;
