NCP enters administration

Change
National Car Parks (NCP), which operates 340 car parks across the UK and employs 682 people, has entered administration and appointed PwC as administrators.
NCP enters administration
Why it matters
NCP's board appointed PwC as administrators after the company ran out of cash and became unable to meet obligations to landlords and creditors. PwC, acting as administrator, is taking steps to stabilise operations while assessing options for the company's future, including a possible sale. All 340 car parks are remaining open for now and staff are remaining in post. The company has significant rent payments due at the end of March and employs 682 people.
Implications
  • Landlords and creditors face unpaid balances and immediate payment shortfalls, including rent due at the end of March.
  • Administrators assume decision-making authority over stabilisation, sale processes and creditor recovery, replacing the board's control.
