The equipment need

The head of a single-member company had a stock of professional equipment acquired from own funds and fully paid.

This capitalization weighed on its liquidity while its order book required advances on purchases and raw material.

He wanted to turn this locked-in value into cash while continuing to use the machines every day.

He first asked us about the exact list of parts to be supplied, because there was no visibility on the course of such an operation.

  • Production equipment already held
  • Tools and related equipment
  • Internal handling equipment

The support described in the project

The equipment was valued at its market value, then purchased by the financial agency and immediately made available to the company.

We aligned the lease payments over 48 months to keep the monthly charge absorbable by the margin on the current orders.

An end-of-contract purchase option has been introduced to ensure that the company recovers full ownership of its equipment at the end of the contract.

The reported operational outcome

The company has collected between $57,300–$115,000corresponding to the value of its equipment.

There were no interruptions in production: the machines remained on site and available throughout the business.

The liquidity thus restored was used to finance the purchase of raw materials necessary for the order book.

The officer obtained a complete list of the required documents from the first exchange, thus avoiding the usual round trip.

Applying the experience to a new project
