As capital is reallocated to core operations, corporate balance sheets become cleaner and more productive.

ELT acquired this 425-acre former steel mill, through corporate divestiture, in 2015. After capital infusion, community buy-in, and strategic redevelopment planning, this blighted site is now on a pathway for a mixed use, waterfront development.

Our clients have seen immediate and positive impacts from divesting environmental liabilities. For publicly-traded clients, the removal of environmental liabilities has resulted in improved investor sentiment and immediate elevations in stock price – up to 17%. While these results are not guaranteed, and vary based on size and scope of company, unlocked capital and upgraded balance sheets win the approval of all company stakeholders and can improve the overall valuation of your company.

Our clients benefit from our financial strength, environmental experience, and our ability to close difficult transactions quickly and efficiently.

ELT can remove environmental issues that are known, unknown, above grade, at grade, below grade and on- and off-site (originating on-site and naturally migrating off-site), whether the issues occurred or were caused to occur in the past, present or future. In addition, ELT will agree to sign applicable regulatory orders and indemnify clients from and against potential future regulatory reopeners.

To learn more about divesting your liabilities, contact ELT to schedule a confidential discussion.
