Private Equity: When a company is more established than a start up, a private equity fund can provide help. There is a wide variety of funds specializing in practically every sector, stage, or size imaginable. These firms focus their investments on companies with cash flow. Often, these firms will provide some form of managerial and technical assistance to these companies. Again the principals from AllFundingOptions.com have developed extensive personal and professional contacts within the PE community.
Buyout Loans or Leveraged Lending: Often a company management or a private equity fund wishes to acquire controlling interest in a company or another company but it does not have enough capital to fund the acquisition on its own. In this leveraged buyout ("LBO") situation, the purchasing entity may opt to finance part of the transaction using debt from a third party source in either the form of a term loan or possibly even a lease. AllFundingOptions.com has strong relationships with these specialized lending sources has benefited the firm's many private equity fund clients.
Mezzanine Debt: Mezzanine debt is a form of financing that incorporates equity-based options, such as warrants, with a lower-priority debt structure. Because its priority is lower than conventional debt, this form of financing is often considered to be more closely related to equity. Mezzanine debt is often used to finance acquisitions and buyouts, where it can be then used to prioritize new owners ahead of existing owners in the event that a bankruptcy occurs. Again, the firm has a diverse range of contacts in this specialty lending sector thus assuring AllFundingOptions.com clients receive the best terms available to them.
Private Investments in Public Equities ("PIPEs"): When a company wishes to raise capital without experiencing the typical fall in stock price that usually accompanies a secondary public offering, the company may want to consider engaging a Private Investor (a PIPE). Public companies in need of financing can arrange privately for investors to buy stock in the company. AllFundingOptions.com has relationships with several firms that employ this structure responsibly.
Term Bank Debt: There are instances where a client does not have a specific piece of equipment that they are seeking to finance. When a company needs capital for general corporate purposes (except those listed below) a general term loan may be appropriate. In this most common form of corporate lending, a lending institution, most often a commercial bank, makes a loan to a company with a fixed maturity and often featuring amortization of the principal. In such instances, cash flow is of paramount importance as indicia of the ability to pay back the loan. AllFundingOptions.com has a wide range of relationships with non-bank banks, hedge funds, and other non-traditional sources.
Sale-Leasebacks, Including Real Estate: In this arrangement, the company sells an asset to an investor in exchange for cash, and then contracts to lease the asset back. Companies employ this financing technique in order to raise cash. Real estate is a better asset than equipment to use for a leaseback arrangement given the stronger resale markets for real estate. Typically, the asset is sold to the investor at market value, so the lessee can acquire capital that would otherwise have remained as a part of the long-term asset. While equipment assets are often used in such transactions, AllFundingOptions.com has significant commercial real estate experience in the instances where real property is the underlying collateral.
"Big Ticket" Equipment Leasing: There are instances where a client does not have a specific piece of equipment that they are seeking to finance. When a company needs capital for general corporate purposes (except those listed below) a general term loan may be appropriate. In this most common form of corporate lending, a lending institution, most often a commercial bank, makes a loan to a company with a fixed maturity and often featuring amortization of the principal. In such instances, cash flow is of paramount importance as indicia of the ability to pay back the loan. AllFundingOptions.com has a wide range of relationships with non-bank banks, hedge funds, and other non-traditional sources.
"Small Ticket" Equipment Leasing: Equipment leasing is very well suited to small to medium size businesses, because they are not likely to have a significant amount of capital, and would rather use it in other ways than purchasing the equipment. AllFundingOptions.com on a selective basis works with smaller companies that are seeking less than $100,000. Such equipment lease financings are often part of AllFundingOptions.com's vendor leasing programs.
Venture Capital ("VC"): Startup companies may want to consider trying to acquire funding from a venture capital firms ("VC's"). These firms focus their investments on startup firms and small businesses, especially in the technology sector, that they deem to have exceptional growth potential. Often, these firms will provide some form of managerial and technical assistance to these companies. Again the principals from AllFundingOptions.com have developed extensive personal and professional contacts within the VC community.
Venture Leases: Venture leasing may be appropriate for startup companies that do not wish to dilute their equity positions. This form of equipment financing is designed for early stage companies that often have venture capital backing. Such financing is a hybrid of traditional leasing and venture capital, and is designed to appeal to this specific market segment. Given the often complex structures of a venture lease, AllFundingOptions.com clients find that the firm's experience is often invaluable in negotiating these transactions.
Revolving Credit Facility: This is another instance were a client is seeking capital not necessary just to procure equipment but perhaps for working capital purposes. In this borrowing arrangement, the lender provides the client with a degree of flexibility by allowing the company to draw and repay different amounts of principal for different periods throughout the life of the credit facility. There is no requirement for a revolver to be fully drawn, thus this flexibility is especially helpful for companies in cyclical sectors (e.g., retail) where working capital requirement vary over the course of the fiscal year. Similar to the aforementioned term loans, AllFundingOptions.com has developed several commercial bank and "non-bank" bank sources of revolver lending. Again, cash flow and credit are indicia of the ability to pay back the loan.
Asset Backed Revolvers: This arrangement is most appropriate for clients that foresee a capital need requiring additional debt to be raised under the same terms. It is similar to Revolving Bank Debt in its structure, except that in this case, it is the value of a company's assets that is of paramount importance as indicia of the ability to pay back the loan, rather than its cash flow.
Purchase Order Financing: When a company receives a large order that its current financial resources cannot support, it may seek to receive financing in which the value of the order itself is used as collateral for the loan. The financing that the company receives may be used for any purpose that is required to fill the order. Vendors and suppliers are usually paid directly for goods or services that are necessary to fill the order. Purchase order financiers will take on some, admittedly limited, manufacturing risk. While not a common source of financing, AllFundingOptions.com has relationships with several institutions that specialize in this sector.
Factoring: Factoring is a financing option that has traditionally been closely associated with the garment industry but has gained increasing acceptance in other sectors. In this type of financing, a company sells or transfers title to its accounts receivable to another entity, "the factoring company". The factoring company then acts as principal, and owns the right to the first company's the receivables, but without recourse (the factor cannot turn to the seller in the event accounts turn out to be uncollectible). Factors often accommodate clients with "over-advances," loans in anticipation of sales, which permit inventory building prior to peak selling periods. AllFundingOptions.com works only with the most credible sources of factoring financing.
Financial Restructuring: When a company is financially distressed, an experienced financial advisor may play a significant role in a successful recovery. A comprehensive analysis of all aspects of the company is necessary in determining a more appropriate capital structure. AllFundingOptions.com and its strategic partners can take a leading role in this process by recommending financial and strategic options, assisting and participating in negotiations with other entities affected by the reorganization, facilitating any recapitalization or sale of assets, and determining an appropriate structure for any new securities or exchange offers to be made. Potential clients with over $25,000,000 in assets are the best candidates for the firm's financial advisory services.
Strategic Business Development: Sometimes money can not solve the needs of a company. There are times when management is too busy keeping operations moving and "they do not or can not see the forest from the trees". Additionally, its difficult to hire a solid well connected business development person, since these deals are often difficult to close and can take many months of maneuvering to get them closed. AllFundingOptions.com leverages years of Relationship Capital TM with Fortune 5000 executive contacts to help structure strategic win-win deals for our client. These deals often lead to better long-term valuations and potentially accelerates acquisition. This is an unique offer from AllFundingOptions.com --- not all types of companies qualify for this service.
