Around half of our annual loan activity supports a wide variety of acquisitions, including:

  • Horizontal and vertical acquisitions
  • Leverage buy out
  • Management buy out
  • Spin off
  • Carve out

Expansion

Leveraging your assets to drive additional capital can power your growth plans, including:

  • New product development
  • Geographic expansion
  • Entry into new markets
  • New customer acquisition

Recapitalization

Your capital structure involves balancing debt and equity. It means juggling revolver, term, senior vs. sub debt, equity, mezzanine and other variables. Our extensive expertise can help with:

  • Dividend recap
  • Realignment of term & revolving debt
  • Support of liquidity events
  • Any other increase, repayment or consolidation of shares

Senior Secured Financing plays an important role when firms are recovering from challenging circumstances. These situations may include:

  • Covenant breakage or limitation
  • Cash flow obstacles
  • Customer concentration issues
  • Receivables management
