Old Hill Partners provided a $30 million senior secured revolving-to-term credit facility to a specialty finance company that provides working capital to small businesses in the form of merchant cash advances. The facility was secured by a first lien perfected security interest in receivables originated by the borrower.
“We believe that the merchant cash advance space is in the process of emerging from a challenging period and represents an attractive alternative credit opportunity. We have over a decade of experience in this asset class, which allowed us to understand the recent distress in the industry and execute on this transaction relatively quickly. We worked very closely with the borrower to craft a custom transaction, secured by strong collateral and ensuring an alignment of interests of all involved,” Peter Faigl, senior portfolio manager at Old Hill, said.
Old Hill Partners is an alternative asset manager focused on asset-based lending transactions with small- and medium-sized businesses.
