FINANCING GROWTH

… and may be the ideal form of financing for companies with significant value growth potential.

May not be suitable for long-term growth plans as the majority of debt available is usually short-term, variable rate and asset-backed, requiring a mortgage. Debt has serious consequences if the business does not perform.

IPO is difficult to plan due to the volatility in stock exchanges, is limited in size and brings reporting requirements. A depressed stock price is a problem when negotiating with strategic investors.

More appropriate for companies that have completed their growth and value-creation cycle as most strategic investors will require majority ownership and control.

Helps company grow faster without liquidity risk through equity and long term debt support.

Provides negotiating power to portfolio company during negotiations with customers, suppliers and potential investors.

No control requirement.
