Background of the Study

Debt management is a critical aspect of financial restructuring for construction companies, as the industry often requires significant capital investment for projects while facing cash flow volatility due to the cyclical nature of construction activities. Financial restructuring refers to the process of reorganizing a company's financial structure to improve its financial health, ensure liquidity, and optimize debt repayment (Reyes et al., 2024). For construction companies in Kebbi State, Nigeria, where infrastructure development is essential for regional growth, the ability to manage debt effectively can mean the difference between successful project completion and business failure.

The construction industry in Kebbi State is growing, fueled by both government infrastructure projects and private sector investments. However, companies in this sector often face financial challenges, including high operational costs, delayed payments from clients, and difficulties accessing financing (Ibrahim & Oladipupo, 2023). As a result, many construction firms are forced to rely on debt financing to meet their capital requirements. However, poor debt management can lead to liquidity problems, which may hinder the completion of ongoing projects and affect long-term profitability.

Previous studies have shown that effective financial restructuring strategies, such as renegotiating loan terms, issuing new equity, or refinancing existing debt, can provide construction companies with the resources necessary to continue operations and grow their businesses (Wright et al., 2023). However, there is limited research on the specific debt management strategies employed by construction companies in Kebbi State. This study aims to explore the financial restructuring strategies used by construction companies in Kebbi State and evaluate their effectiveness in managing debt and ensuring financial stability.

Statement of the Problem

Many construction companies in Kebbi State are grappling with financial distress due to ineffective debt management strategies. These companies often face liquidity problems, high-interest rates on loans, and difficulties in meeting debt obligations. Without effective financial restructuring, these firms are at risk of default, which could negatively impact the construction industry in the region. This study seeks to address the gap in understanding by examining the debt management strategies employed by construction companies in Kebbi State and assessing their effectiveness in improving financial stability and long-term profitability.

Objectives of the Study

1. To evaluate the financial restructuring strategies used by construction companies in Kebbi State to manage debt.

2. To assess the impact of debt management strategies on the financial stability and profitability of construction companies in Kebbi State.

3. To provide recommendations for improving debt management practices in the construction sector in Kebbi State.

Research Questions

1. What financial restructuring strategies are most commonly used by construction companies in Kebbi State to manage debt?

2. How do financial restructuring strategies impact the profitability and financial stability of construction companies in Kebbi State?

3. What are the key challenges faced by construction companies in Kebbi State in managing debt, and how can these challenges be overcome?

Research Hypotheses

1. There is a significant relationship between financial restructuring strategies and improved debt management in construction companies in Kebbi State.

2. Financial restructuring strategies positively affect the profitability and financial stability of construction companies in Kebbi State.

3. Construction companies in Kebbi State that implement effective debt management strategies are more likely to maintain financial stability and complete projects successfully.

Scope and Limitations of the Study

This study will focus on construction companies operating in Kebbi State, Nigeria. The research will examine the debt management strategies used by both large and small construction firms in the region. Limitations include potential biases in self-reported data from company executives and the limited availability of financial data due to the lack of transparency in some companies' financial reporting.
