OverviewSummary updated

Advantage Products Inc. has been in court-appointed receivership in Alberta since January 31, 2018, when HSBC Bank Canada obtained the appointment of Alvarez & Marsal Canada Inc. as receiver under s. 243(1) of the Bankruptcy and Insolvency Act, s. 13(2) of the Judicature Act and s. 65(7) of the Personal Property Security Act (file 1801-01297). Estimated book values as at February 7, 2018 show assets of $2,024,501 against liabilities of $1,568,687, unaudited; the receiver believes liabilities are significantly understated. HSBC, first-ranking and owed approximately $700,000, supports a sale. Some 44 unsecured creditors are owed approximately $683,000, CRA asserts GST and source deduction claims of between $90,000 and $100,000, and the receiver held approximately $945,987 in cash at April 16, 2018. A claims procedure with a May 31, 2018 bar date is proposed.

Each row is one filing's statement, copied as it reads and never computed. "Estimated" is the officer's forecast; "Under the plan" is the plan's or proposal's own term; "Final" is a declared or paid distribution; a row with no chip states no footing. A range is the two numbers stated; "of proven claims" is the document's own denominator.
