Using Accounts Receivable Financing to Manage Cash Flow

accounts-receivable-financing-product-image-1280.jpg

Accounts receivable (AR) financing is a process by which your company sells some or all of its commercial invoices to a factoring company at less than face value, in exchange for a quick infusion of cash which can be used for any business purpose.

This process is also called ‘factoring’. With factoring, businesses can get an advance on invoices as soon as the buyer agrees to pay. So instead of waiting 30, 60, 90 or even 120 days for customer payment, factoring can provide cash immediately.

For AR financing, you need to have an ‘approved to pay’ invoice from your clients. Purchase order financing is another good option for getting cash advances on large orders before invoicing your clients.

How Does Speritas Capital Help?

Speritas Capital can arrange AR financing from $250,000 to $30 million to support start-ups to lower middle-market companies.

Companies experiencing high growth, negative equity or credit issues can benefit from accounts receivable financing.

If you’re able to use other types of collateral, you may want to consider using an asset-based line of credit.

Because Speritas Capital is a debt advisory firm, we have access to a wide variety of asset-based lending structures. We’re not beholden to any one lender or structure so we can use our creativity and experience to design a structure that truly fits the needs of our clients.

We work with clients to develop a financial presentation which properly represents the status of the turnaround, the strength of the collateral pool, and the sustainability of the business.

We can also arrange financing for each asset type separately.

So whether you’re a smaller firm looking to grow through accounts receivable or purchase order finance, a lower middle market firm looking for more liquidity or a lower cost of funds, or an operating company looking at an acquisition, we can help you assess your options, introduce one or more lenders, and assist in structuring the deal.
