The equipment need
A company had bought a very lightly used demonstration forestry machine at auction, for well below its new value.
Having paid for it from its own funds, the company wanted to replenish its cash.
- Used forestry machine (demonstration model)
The support described in the project
Leaseworld structured a sale-leaseback on the forestry machine, building on the favorable gap between the price paid and the equipment's actual value.
The refinancing recovered a large share of the capital tied up in the machine.
The reported operational outcome
The company restored its cash position while keeping the use of its forestry equipment.
