A prime mover was the immediate need. But it wasn’t the whole funding story.
A growing transport business had secured a major new contract, creating a strong opportunity and a much tighter cash flow cycle.
Customers were paying on extended terms, while key suppliers and operating costs were due much sooner. A delayed debtor payment had also contributed to recent banking and fuel related dishonours, making the asset finance requirement more difficult to support on its own.
Rather than looking at the prime mover in isolation, Earlypay looked at the equipment requirement alongside the business’ working capital position.
The result was approximately $450,000 in Equipment Finance, supported by a $300,000 Invoice Finance.
The Equipment Finance facility helped the business acquire the assets it needed to service the new work. The Invoice Finance facility, initially introduced across just two agreed debtors, helped provide the owners greater certainty around cash flow as the business continued to grow.
Together, the solution addressed two different needs within the same opportunity.
Today, revenue is growing month on month, the team is expanding and the business is strengthening its position for future growth.
For brokers, the takeaway is simple:
Sometimes the asset is the immediate need. But it can also be the signal to ask another question.
If a scenario does not quite fit at first glance, ask what’s driving the funding requirement? Looking at the asset and the business around it may uncover more options for your client.
Bring the scenario to us early and let’s look at the bigger picture together.
