SHORT TERM CASH CRUNCH

Client Situation:

PE backed leading vitamin and supplement brands came together as a new company. The Newco found itself in a short-term cash crunch with an interest payment on their first lien term loan due within 90 days.

Engagement Objectives:

  • Client engaged Optimus to fast-track the lease capital raise process to meet a critical deadline and to secure upwards of $15 million to increase liquidity and ensure covenant compliance.

Engagement Objectives:

  • The clock was ticking! Client’s quarterly interest payment was due weeks before the typical time needed to secure and deliver a signature-ready lease facility. Expediting the process was critical!
  • Lease structure was of critical importance to get right, as their senior lender covenants precluded Client from certain lease structures.
  • Client was completing YE financial statements, which included restatement of line-items negatively impacting their credit standing.

Client Results

  • Optimus expedited and delivered $14.25M of liquidity via reimbursement in advance of the critical deadline.
