The equipment need

The company had acquired a public works machine and wished to recover the capital on that purchase.

This outflow of cash weighed on its ability to finance its yards and its need for working capital.

The constraint was to maintain the full availability of the machine throughout the business.

  • Public works equipment
  • Associated construction equipment

The support described in the project

We structured an operation of equipment sale-leaseback relating to the machine already owned by the company.

We have validated the recovery value of the equipment on the basis of the acquisition invoice and its actual condition.

The financing was put in place over a period of 48 months, with a lease payment aligned on the capacity to repay the business.

The company retained the exclusive use of the machine without any introruption of activity.

The reported operational outcome

The liquidity mobilized during the cash purchase was replenished as soon as the contract was put in place.

The company has regained financial flexibility to respond to new construction projects.
