Business Financing In Canada: Your Search For Revolving Loans & The Right Credit Facility Just Ended


















Business financing in Canada often ' revolves ' around the need to include revolving loans in your business finance mix. How does this type of credit facility work?

WHAT IS A REVOLVING LOAN FACILITY


Revolving loans are a type of business credit provided by banks and other commercial lenders that allow a business to draw down on financing and continue repaying and drawing down based on cash inflows from receivables, etc. These are known as ' facilities ' in that it is a type of service such as a defined line of credit that revolves.

WHY CONSIDER A REVOLVING LOAN?

Revolving business credit lines are a key tool in business finance and should be a part of your firm's overall business finance strategy. These ' revolvers' allow you to meet day to day operating needs and plan for anticipated cash flows based on sales and cash collection projections.  In more mature companies that are established, they are a part of the overall capital structure of the business and are complemented by other long term financings such as term loans, leases, etc.

HOW DO REVOLVING CREDIT LINES WORK?


Revolving business line of credit loans allows a company to access a defined amount, typically called a ' credit limit.  Normal uses of this type of credit facility are for buying inventory from suppliers, maintenance and repairs, funding marketing,  and addressing gaps in either the carrying of larger amounts of a/r and inventory or seasonal requirements based on the industry in question. A Typical revolving credit line is secured by the assets of the business - with the most common security being accounts receivable and inventory. In the case of asset-based lenders, they allow fixed assets that are owned by the company to be monetized within the same facility. Typically chartered banks do not include fixed assets as part of the' borrowing certificate ' that banks calculate monthly based on your levels of a/r and inventories.
In some cases, commercial lenders may utilize the concept of an Unsecured line of credit - which provides a certain level of borrowing based on a general security agreement - ' GSA ' on all the assets of the company. Typically personal guarantees of the business owners play a key role in unsecured credit.

The key aspect of revolving business lines of credit is clearly ' flexibility'. The continual drawdown and repaying of the facility creates a ' pay as you go ' scenario as businesses both use and consume cash as they run and grow their business. That's good news!

The key differentiator in business credit facilities that revolve is that it's not a term loan, via that continual drawing down and repayment we just referenced. However, like term loans, they do often come with ' limits’, but more importantly they vary with your assets.

Here an important distinction occurs. When it comes to bank credit lines these pre-imposed limits are often fixed and relate directly to typically receivables and inventory. However, if you chose an asset-based non-bank line of credit via a commercial finance firm that borrowing base typically has no upward limit if you in fact have growing sales and commensurate assets.

That monthly ' borrowing base' that banks and asset finance companies utilize comes with some pretty basic formulas. In the case of banks, utilizing receivables as an example the borrowing base is 75% of your A/R; asset-based lenders typically lend against 90%. (In both cases receivables must be under 90 days old). Those calculations are a key part of a revolving credit facility agreement, and establish your ' borrowing base ' which the lender documents regularly with a 'borrowing base certificate '

CALCULATING THE BORROWING BASED ON REVOLVING LOANS

Asset-based lenders and banks determine your borrowing power by ' margining' a discount factor against a specific asset based - most commonly receivables and inventory.  As an example, if an asset-based lender allows a discount factor of 90% on receivables, which is common, a 1 million dollar receivable portfolio can represent a revolving loan of 900,000.00. The same type of calculation applies to inventory, and asset lenders also allow your unencumbered fixed assets to be margined in the same manner! Banks typically have revolving loan facility agreements around a/r and inventory only, with possible exceptions.

Various nuances might exist in your A/R margining relating typically to issues such as government receivables, high balance concentrations with one customer, etc.

Revolving loans from banks come with various covenants and restrictions. In general, we can make the statement there is a lot less restriction from non-bank asset lenders on this issue.

What then are some of the key issues around pricing revolving loan credit facilities? No one disputes the fact that Cdn chartered banks offer the lowest cost business financing rates - if you can satisfy the risk profile desired by the banks. That risk profile typically includes growing sales, profits, clean balance sheets and demonstrable cash flows.

Interest rate pricing on non-bank asset financings varies proportionately to credit risk. The good news here is simply that almost any firm with sales and assets is eligible for asset-based credit lines. So it’s overall credit risk and the amount and type of debt a company has is the driver behind asset-based revolving loans and other alternative working capital solutions.

 
TERM LOANS VERSUS REVOLVING LOANS 

Commercial lenders have a clear separation around term loans versus revolving loans/credit lines. Credit criteria for a term loan involve a firm's total credit profile with a focus on clean balance sheets,  profits, and the ability to generate cash flow as repayment of the loan over several years.
Business financing when it comes to credit lines is all about operating performance. Credit lines don't require fixed payment terms, they ' revolve ' and we can make the case they come with a maximum amount of financial flexibility. A bank or an alternative lender offering non-bank lines of credit ultimately like the facility to revolve and at some point be very significantly reduced before it is drawn down again based on the needs of the business.  When it comes to revolving loans from either banks or an ABL lender it's your revenue and operating performance that allows you to access short term operating capital.
CONCLUSION

Revolving loans and bank or asset-based lines of credit provide a safety net for the business as the credit facility allows you to draw down on cash flow needs over time as your company generates sales. Interest rates are often higher when accessing business capital via an alternative lender but these ' ABL ' lenders provide capital when a company can't access traditional bank financing, particularly for small business and medium-sized companies who can't access public markets.
If you're on the search for the right type of credit facility for your firm your search will almost always end well by seeking out a trusted, credible and experienced Canadian business financing advisor who can assist you with your credit facility needs.

A Business Line Of Credit In Canada : It’s True That ABL Revolving Lines Deliver !





















Eliminating The Tough Road In Accessing Business Credit Lines






Business line of credit
needs may often require the business owner/financial mgr look beyond the ' norm' associated with revolving credit lines. That's where ABL asset based lending and revolving loans come in - they're the viable bank alternative. Let's not forget though that bank facilities of this type offer low cost and flexibility if they can be accessed. Let's dig in.

An ' ABL ' is the acronym for the non-bank business credit line via the asset based lending solution. With the focus on using your assets as collateral the true ' borrowing power' of the facility provides your firm with a flexible cash flow solution based solely on the balance sheet assets. The facility actually suits every type of company but is often most successful for firms that have uneven financial statement ratios, fluctuating profits, and cash flows that might not resemble true operating cash flow performance.

Many companies, but not all as we've mentioned, used the facility to facilitate a turnaround or restructuring around their overall capital structure when that is mandated by owners or lenders! Many firms that are financed by Canadian banks might find themselves on the wrong side of covenants and ratios that often can only be solved by a new third party solution.

Solutions around asset based revolving lines demand that your firm has a good handle on your overall cash conversion/business cycle. That knowledge, combined with the ability to borrow a higher amount on your overall collateral will deliver the proper turnaround in your business finances. In some cases true asset based lenders will also consider term debt if it is appropriate and feasible.



WHY CONSIDER AN ABL BUSINESS CREDIT LINE / REVOLVING CREDIT FACILITY?




Many new clients at 7 PARK AVENUE FINANCIAL aren't fully aware of the differences in ABL loans as compared to bank credit or other facilities. They have found via experience that bank credit is difficult to get given the personal guarantees, covenants, and other obligations Canadian chartered banks might impose. Accessing all the bank credit you require can easily become a full-time job! As one of our mentors used to say ' tuition is very expensive in the school of experience '!


There are a number of reasons why your firm might consider an ABL revolving line. Some of these reasons might include:

ABL Finance will provide significantly more, and immediate liquidity to the business

Firms that might be under a cash flow crunch or constantly facing bulge financing needs due to issues around seasonality, etc will find themselves fully financed

Asset based credit lines tend to almost automatically grow as your revenues rise Growing sales requires constant replenishment of working capital due to the build-up your investments in receivables and inventory consistent with any company with growing sales.

ABL financing is 'covenant friendly', with asset based lending companies place much less, or even no focus on debt to equity ratios, financial leverage, outside collateral, etc ( ABL Lenders can do this as they constantly update your overall all asset coverage around aged payables, receivables, fixed asset lists, etc - The software and reporting mechanisms ABL lenders use provides them with a total update on how your firm is doing


In summary, asset based lenders who feel comfortable with their asset security, as well as your firm's ability to provide regular updates on performance, provide a significant amount of liquidity into the Canadian business financing landscape.

Are There Disadvantages To The ABL Facility And A ABL Revolving Line Of Credit?



99% Of the time asset based lending will always cost more than traditional bank financing. The bottom line interest rate and the focus on continual reporting is the tradeoff your firm gets from it's access to maximum liquidity. However, similar to bank financing the ABL environment allows you to pay for only the credit you utilize. ABL lenders have a higher cost of financing as they are typically financed privately and have higher costs around the monitoring of collateral and reporting.


Fundamentally it's all about the cost of financing benchmarked against the ' risk ' associated with your firm or its industry. It's at these times that looking at alternatives make sense.


Revolving credit facilities are primarily used for growth; and in some cases they are a solid re-financing alternative.

HOW DOES THE ABL BUSINESS LINE OF CREDIT WORK? THE REVOLVING CREDIT AGREEMENT


The ability to constantly access and drawdown working capital/cash flow needs is the key attraction of securing the proper line of credit facility. The assets that make up and drive this type of business credit are:


Receivables

Inventory

Equipment / Real Estate (if applicable)


As these two ' current asset' levels rise and fall so does the line of credit accessibility. Technically speaking the bank, or the asset based line of credit provider determine your firms access by establishing what they call a ' borrowing base' - typically on a monthly basis


In the case of a bank facility, typical margins against these two assets are as follows -


A/R = 75%

Inventory - 50% (varies)


The asset based lenders who provide lines of credit typically offer higher margin borrowing:


A/R - 90%

Inventory - 50-75% - (varies)


We can with confidence and experience say that asset based non-bank credit lines, while more costly, almost 99% of the time offer more borrowing power.

True revolving facilities are the most typical credit line - your firm draws down on the facility and then pays the facility down as you collect receivables and generate cash. The facility ' revolves ' - hence the name 'revolver'. The key drives of that ' revolving ' tend to be the turnover over inventories and collection of receivables as the company completes its sales cycle.

Many industries find themselves perfectly suited to asset based credit; examples might be distribution companies, manufacturers, distributors, etc.

In current times many firm are service or software-based , and these firms focus on the collection of a/r or their ability to contract clients via recurring revenue streams. When you set up your facility with the asset based finance company you will mutually agree on a ' borrowing base ' which will identify the maximum you can draw down at any time. Revolving credit facilities make the most sense economically when they ' revolve ' allowing you to minimize borrowing costs which at the same time being able to access capital when you need it.

This is why good attention to your inventory turns and DSO ( the key measurement of receivable turnover ) are so critical for the ownership/management team.

Asset based lenders use bank lockbox agreements to allow them to control the overall facility and ensuring the funds you receive are used to constantly pay down the facility. Over time your ability to have the facility ' revolve ' properly will have a key place in determining facility size, rates, collateral monitoring, etc.

If your firm has a good relationship with your lender you can often negotiate an ' over adance ', allowing you to temporarily ' over-borrow ' above the approved facility size. In these cases we always recommend clients be prepared to put together a realistic cash flow projection based on the current situation and needs of the business. Those situations might arise out of the ' seasonality ' in your industry, or your ability to take advantage of special vendor pricing, etc.

One other possibility surrounding this type of facility is the potential for the asset based lender to include a ' term loan component ' in the overall structure of the facilities. Payments can be adjusted to be made separately on the loan or also utilizing the ' balloon repayment ' scenario, allowing for the loan to be collapsed when the facility is paid out by another lender.

 Suffice to say good asset coverage is required in these latter two scenarios. Although almost all Canadian banks have an ' ABL ' division Canadian borrowers will always struggle with the concept of trying to understand the difference between bank ABL and non bank ABL.

In the U.S. ' second liens' are popular, allowing lenders to be 2nd on charges of equipment already secured by another lender; this practice is very uncommon in Canada. When banks do provide ABL loans in Canada their rates are often considerably better than their non-bank counterparts - however minimum loan sizes are often in the 5-10 Million range and upward. Banks will take a more extensive look at a multitude of factors in these larger ABL loans such as overall credit quality, pricing, and the company's ability to comply with the operational aspects of loans.

It is safe to say though that on balance there is more lender risk in asset based loans given constantly changing assets of the borrowing firm, along with major fluctuations in cash flow and often struggling working capital ratios, which is why various conditions will be imposed by a Canadian bank or non-bank LOC provider. We can (again) say with confidence (and, again experience!) that conditions imposed by asset based lenders are less onerous and more flexible. To some extent the actual limit on the line of credit can almost automatically increase without further applications, etc


What then is the bottom line of your firm's search for revolving lines of credit? The key points include:


Consider the entire funding landscape currently available in Canada


Be open to looking at both bank and non-bank solutions - aka ' traditional' versus ' alternative’


Have a strong sense of your working capital and cash flow needs


Ensure you have the data to allow a bank or non-bank lender to consider the credit facility - typically that's financials, aged receivables, inventory, payables, etc

ALWAYS BE OPEN TO A PLAN B!



In certain cases your company either may not be eligible for an asset-based credit line. There are numerous other solutions that can provide a similar type of liquidity including accounts receivable credit lines, purchase order financing and inventory loans, sale-leaseback scenarios, factoring loans, etc. Each of these types of facilities has different pricing and benefits attached to them.

Certainly a sole accounts receivable line of credit is always more achievable and can meet the needs of many firms, particularly those with smaller facility size requirements. Although there is no hard and fast rule our experience at 7 Park Avenue Financial is that for firms requiring facilities less than 500k these secondary solutions we have highlighted will often do the job, particularly if your firm doesn't qualify for a true ABL through a commercial lender or the bank.

Solutions such as the factoring line of credit are easily put in place, so business owners and their financial mgr's should always investigate types of asset-based financing.

These secondary types of offerings, versus the operating line of credit, are generally easily accessed, and certainly, approvals are more quickly put in place.

In summary, if you’re focused on shortening the journey on the tough road to business cash flow and working capital financing consider all options, including speaking to a trusted, credible and experienced Canadian business financing advisor who can assist you with funding needs... that deliver.

Business Financing In Canada : Which Credit Facility Works For Your Company?









Here’s The Important Stuff On Business Credit Facilities In Canada





OVERVIEW – Information on the choice of credit facility arrangements that are available to the Canadian business owner. Business financing success is determine by the flexibility and type of financing you need to run and grow your business








Business financing in Canada, (despite the belief of some) still involves choices in the type of credit facility that works best for your firm under different circumstances and needs. We're reviewing the ' important stuff ' on these types of finance. Let's dig in.

When we talk ' credit facilities ' it's important to distinguish between various types, i.e. loans, revolving credit lines, leasing facilities, etc. Credit facilities of various types complement the shareholder equity in the business. That balance of debt and equity is critical to business success as it really determines both financial pressures and flexibility around your borrowing requirements.

Whether you're looking at short term operating needs of longer in nature ' term loans' it's all about ensuring you have the flexibility to run your business. In effect it's your ' back up plan '!

The positive aspect of ' working capital' / ' revolving' facilities is that they are ' evergreen ' in nature, constantly allowing you to draw on funds based on traditional collateral such as receivables and inventory and the cash flow that comes from those two assets. Think of these types of credit lines in effect it’s a credit card for your business, allowing you to constantly draw on funds as needed.

Long term loans can vary anywhere from 3 to ten years for a business - in the case of a commercial mortgage 15-20 years are in fact reasonable time frames for such a finance need. The best term loans for your company match the asset to the cash flow.

Using our analogy of comparing the business line of credit as a ' credit card' for your business it's important to... you guessed it... not max out the facility! Firms that are constantly at their borrowing maximum on credit lines and term loans are of course perceived as being in at least some form of financial distress.

The security for business lines of credit themselves are either some or all of the business assets or in some cases just the ' cash flow ' the company generates. Rates from either banks or non bank commercial finance companies will reflect the credit quality and collateral of the loan or credit line.

It's important to have a solid credit line facility in place as it's the ultimate daily ' safety net' for your business.

If you're looking to understand business credit facilities such as:

Term loans

Equipment Leases

Business Lines of Credit (bank and non bank)


seek out and speak to a trusted, credible and experienced Canadian business Financing Advisor with a track record of success who can assist you on the... important stuff'!
