[John M. Collard, turnaround manager and investor says his product is me!]
Turnaround Specialist says his 'product is me'

Specialist: John M. Collard's job, which he has done around the world, is to turn around distressed companies, but Network Technologies presented a different challenge.

When John M. Collard arrived at Network Technologies Group, Inc., an empty desk and chair were all that filled his office. There was no computer. The file drawers were empty. The walls were bare. "There was nothing here," Collard recalled. A turnaround specialist whose job is to rescue troubled companies, Collard had been hired by the investors and the board to figure out what was going on inside, to stabilize the company, and to find and hire his replacement. This time was different.

[The rise and fall Saga of Network Technologies Group, Inc.!]
The rise and fall Saga of Network Technologies Group, Inc.

Collard Discovers Bank Fraud and Accounting Irregularities, the 1st day on the job.
The company is forced to liquidate amidst Federal and State Investigations. Four top executives indicted on federal charges of mail, wire and bank fraud.
Mercantile recovers only $2M of the $3.5M it had invested.


The company grew to $30 million in 2001, but then the telecommunications slowdown was a catalyst for management to 'cook-the-books'. John M. Collard was hired by the equity investors as Chief Executive Officer on July 1st, 2002, and found bank fraud, theft, money laundering, and accounting irregularities. The company could not find additional investors to put in more cash and couldn't make payroll July 12th. Collard was forced to lay off all 125 employees, while authorities looked on. Police presence was necessary to maintain order. The company assets were auctioned off on August 27th to partially repay Mercantile, the primary secured creditor. Investigations by both Federal and State authorities produce Federal Grand Jury indictments for mail, wire, and bank fraud against top executives. Three plead guilty and are sentenced to prison terms and restitution.   Civil suits and litigation were extended for years, well into 2007.
