The Challenge

A technology manufacturer wanted to diversify their funding strategies to complement their existing bank lines and have an available alternative to cash. They were primarily interested in a capital lease structure to maintain ownership of the equipment and depreciation rights.

The Solution

First American presented the client with highly customized financing solutions for their diverse needs. This included a sale leaseback for UPS units which provided immediate liquidity through a reimbursement for the costs already incurred from the supplier, and progress payment financing for tooling equipment with long lead times and milestone payments. As a result of this flexible financing and the ongoing relationship with First American, the client is well positioned for both short- and long-term growth.
