Senior debt financing is a cost-effective option that allows owners to avoid diluting their equity (providing the company has asset and/or cash flow coverage to support the debt).  RSM EquiCo Capital Markets can assist with the structuring, originating and placing of senior credit facilities with banks, commercial finance companies, institutional investors and senior debt funds.

We advise clients on all phases of the senior debt financing process, including preparation and presentation of a comprehensive private placement memorandum, solicitation of lenders, and coordination with other professional advisors to complete the transaction cost effectively.

Senior debt advisory assignments include, but are not limited to:

• Performing a debt capacity analysis and advising on establishing optimal capital structure parameters
• Raising debt (both cash flow and asset-based) to affect a recapitalization/shareholder liquidity event, management buyout or leveraged buyout
• Raising debt to fund organic growth, expansion into new markets, acquisitions, or non-recourse or partial-recourse project financings
• Consolidating multiple financing agreements into a single credit facility
• Improving terms and conditions of existing agreements or diversifying financing sources
• Restructuring the balance sheet to improve debt capacity, reduce restrictive operating covenants, or to resolve a distressed situation
