Manning told the Herald: “We have advertised the business for sale as a going concern. All interested parties should contact the liquidators as a priority. We are currently liaising with several interested parties.”
The first liquidator’s report, released today, lists total assets and Evolution’s total deficit as “unknown” at this point.
Funds on hand at the time of the liquidation were $5963 with debts – still being assessed – somewhere north of $462,000.
There are two secured creditors: ANZ Bank, owed $82,446, and Cheryl Renouf Ltd (owner of MTF Finance Whakatāne), owed $32,443.
