Options for Financing Expansion

Whether your expansion plans require a larger facility, an acquisition, innovative production equipment, new technological systems, or a major renovation of existing facilities, assessing your organization’s financial strategy presents a wealth of opportunity if all options are considered, and for those who do their homework. The right strategy can significantly increase shareholder value and enhance the company’s ability to achieve both short and long-term strategies. Companies need to assess their financial strategy by asking the right questions:

• Will the current financial strategies support the company’s operating vision?
• How are innovative industry competitors financing expansion?
• What is an appropriate cost of capital?
• What financing avenues does the company have?

At Sisterson, we bring to your organization value and lasting impact through our motivated consulting professionals, who have unique capital and financing attainment skills. Our capabilities in addressing financing sources that drive shareholder value arise from a detailed plan of action that includes:

• Analyzing the current financing function - key aspects and related needs
• Understanding of the organization’s financing needs - what the funds are for, how much is needed, when, and how and when the funds will be repaid
• Investigate internal sources of financing - improve accounts receivable collections, reduce inventory, manage accounts payable, and reduce expenses
• Investigate external sources of financing - private sources, commercial banks, leasing companies, government agencies or equity sources
• Help develop a business plan and financing proposal - company and management background, funds required and repayment plans, and company financial information
• Provide external source contacts and help negotiate loan - select the lender and negotiate terms
