SR&ED Financing – You Could Wait For Your Cheque As The Alternative Option

OVERVIEW – Information on SR ED financing in Canada . Monetizing your SR&ED Claim eliminates waiting for your govt refund chq and maximizes the use of working capital and cash flow to replenish r&d capital expenditures

SR&ED financing is an great way of maximizing the whole Canadian SR&ED process in Canada. Of course Canadian business owners and financial managers can wait for their refund , there is certainly nothing wrong with waiting for money ; let's dig in.

But if you choose to finance your claim now you can in effect continue to maximize the overall potential of this great Canadian program. Funds can be used for immediate purchase of equipment, allowing you to maintain your competitive market position - an excellent strategy might be to use a portion of the fund as a down payment on a lease or purchase of equipment, thereby reducing your overall borrowing cost.

When we meet with business owners and financial managers one of the key questions we are always asked is how much money can be financed under a claim. That answer is that, in general, you can get 70% or more of your overall claim, which is, of course, the combination of both the federal and the provincial claims as a total.

Since the claim you are financing is a cash grant, and non repayable the financing you receive under a SR&ED tax credit financing is yours for any corporate purpose. So typically the funds are used for working capital, purchase of new equipment, and even the repayment of any Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) arrears that you might have if you are in the unfortunate case of owing government super priority payments such as GST, Source deductions, etc.

If you are in a position of financing two years of claim, which is the allowable backdating under the program, you can of course get immediate financing ( FOR THE 70%) of the total of the two years claims . That can be very significant dollars in some cases. So as an example, you have filed a SR&ED claim for two years, the current fiscal year and your previous fiscal timeframe.

Let’s say those two claims total $450,000.00 as an example. So over the last two years you have expended 450k, (probably much more) on research and development. You have had your claim prepared by a competent SR&ED consultant , and are now waiting for you technical and financial audit , which are standard during the SR&ED process .

So what is the option? As we stated it is a case of waiting, in our estimate between 3-12 months for your cheque, or, as we suggest for consideration, financing that claim now. Under of 70% rule you immediately obtain cash flow and working capital in the amount of $ 315,000.00 to use for general corporate purposes.

When the claim is processed, approved and paid by the government you of course receive the balance of the 30% of the claim less financing costs. Financing costs are higher than normal business financing might be via your chartered bank, as in essence you are factoring a receivable that is due to your firm.

In order to ensure a solid and easier financing of your claim we again re state the fact that it is good to have your claim prepared by an experienced person in this area, which in some cases, but certainly not always, be your accountant or C.A. firm. We say ‘ not always ‘ because SR&ED claims preparation and analysis is very industry specific and is not what we would call a ‘ core competency ‘of every C.A. in Canada , and that’s an understatement ! It's those SR&ED consultants that understand form T661 very well and complete it accurately and with the proper information leading to a successful claim... and refund!


In summary, it should probably go without saying that every Canadian firm should consider filing for their non- repayable SR&ED refund.

Speak to an experienced, credible, advisor in this area to initiate your claim financing.

Asset Based Lending – Non Bank Revolving Business Credit Line Facilities

Tweet



Is There Some Fuzziness Around Your Firm’s Ability To Get The Business Credit Line It Needs? Here’s a Solution!

OVERVIEW – Information on asset based lending and non bank operating and revolving facilities and how these financing solutions can improve working capital and cash flow for Canadian business owners

Asset based lines of credit are a unique way for Canadian business owners to achieve operating liquidity outside the chartered bank environment.

Asset based lending, also commonly known as 'ABL ' financing in Canada, is not debt financing, and should not be confused as such - It is operating and working capital financing.

Asset based lines of credit are used by medium sized firms and larger firms throughout Canada, and are growing in popularity. In general they are inappropriate and difficult to structure for small firms and start ups - In those two cases it might be more advisable to focus on straight receivables financing solutions such as factoring.

Canadian asset based lines of credit are structured around some of the following parameters:

- Industry fundamentals such as asset quality and perceived industry risk

- Your general credit profile

- Size of the financing facility and who is offering the facility (the industry is somewhat fragmented in Canada


We noted your firms ' general credit profile ' as a key consideration. Probably the most surprised of our clients are the ones that now understand that while overall financial statement strength is one factor in the financing facility such as this, it is absolutely not the most important factor. Why? That is because an ABL facility focuses more on assets than operational performance.

We are not telling clients that they can get an asset based line of credit if their firm is in a serious death spiral, but if your firm has challenges such as temporary operating losses or an extenuating circumstance setback you still are a very strong candidate for asset based financing credit.

How do these facilities work? Very simply it's a similar version of a bank operating line of credit, but without many of those restrictions, covenants, additional collateral requirements, etc. Receivables, inventory, and sometimes equipment and real estate are margined to their proper values. Typically that is receivables at 90-100% of invoice value, inventory at 40- 80%, and equipment and real estate per acceptable appraised values.

Are there any drawbacks to such a facility - we can think of two discussion points and they aren’t necessarily hard and fast drawbacks - those two points are :

- Pricing
- Reporting

Asset based lines of credit traditionally have higher pricing than bank lines, and you are more often than not required to do detailed reporting of a/r, inventory values, etc on a monthly basis . We point out to customers that additional reporting can sometimes turn into a benefit as it helps you understand your business better!

In summary, asset based lines of credit are financing facilities that provide alternative funding to typical banking type arrangements. They almost always give your more capital, you do not incur debt, and in many cases can help your firm either regain its financial footing or grow more quickly.
Talk to a credible, experienced financing expert for information on this unique type of financing.

What Are the Three Types of Financial Statements? Which One Suits My Firm Best?

Tweet

Business owners will find out at some time in the business history, (usually early on!) that they require financial information to satisfy essentially two bodies - shareholders/management, and, secondly, lenders!



There are essentially 3 types of financial statements:



Audited

Review Engagement

Internal



Audited Statements - Companies who require audited financial statements. Why does a company require an audited financial statement? Business owners quickly realize this type of statement comes with a very significantly higher cost. So why the need? The best way to describe the need is that there is an important interest in the company, and that interest comes from an owner /shareholder, or lender. The audited statements report to those two parties and validate that the auditor, an independent third party, is saying that the financial represent the true picture of the company, and if there are any serious inadequacies then those are pointed out.

Any ' inadequacies' relate to GAAP, which, stands for Generally Accepted Accounting Principles '. Let's use a quick example. There are primarily two methods that corporations use to count and record inventory. If the company was using an alternative method, the auditor would point out that the GAAP is in effect being broken. That's a quick simple example. We are most familiar with public companies requiring audited financial statements.

That is because a public company has usually thousands of investors. They, 99% of the time, don't get to meet management or see the company. They rely on the audited financial statement to reinforce the credibility of the financials. Audited statements are costly and time consuming to prepare, and require significant company and auditor inter-action. However the importance of the audited statement can't be over emphasized.

Review Engagement Statements - This type of financials statement ranks 2nd in the hierarchy of financial statements.

(Audited is # 1!). Review Engagement Statements are prepared by a 3rd party accountant; however they come with only 3 basic elements to them.

1. The accountant should have a ' reasonable knowledge of the company'
2. His questions, comparisons, and discussions should provide an inference that the financial statements seem reasonable
3. The statements should be presented in a manner acceptable to GAAP ( even though individual accounts aren't checked )

Internal Financial Statements - These are exactly what are inferred. They are financial statements prepared internally for management, or for monthly reporting to their bank. We can essentially say that management or the third party accountant simply collects information, summarizes it, and notes that information is somewhat restrictive in nature as it lacks the additional due diligence in Notice To Reader and Audited statements.

In summary, there are 3 times of financial statements. They are given various weight and significance based on who prepared them, and how, and under what standards of accounting competency. A start up firm might start its history with internal statements, as the company grows it would be required by lenders and other stakeholders to prepare Notice to Reader Statements. As the company grew very large, and went public perhaps the need to prepare Audited Financials would be a necessity.

Business owners and financial managers should continually be determining if the type of statement they currently prepare satisfies current needs, and management should also be looking at the next evolution in the company's financial reporting needs.

Hungry For Best Equipment Leasing Rates ? Here's Our Recipe !

Looking For The Best Equipment Leasing Rates in Canada - Here's Who To Talk To !







Information on how Canadian business owners can access and achieve the best leasing rates in Canada . Knowing how asset finance and equipt loans work is key - here's why !

Savvy Canadian business owners and financial managers know that leasing is not always about price, it often should focus on issues such as structure, terms, covenants, etc. However, having said that, how does the business owner ensure that he is in fact getting a rate that is very competitive, if not ‘the best ‘that his firm can achieve?


Let’s look at the factors that affect lease pricing. Lease financing in Canada is a specialized industry, and we encourage clients to ensure they seek out and work with a trusted, credible, and experienced lease financing advisor in this area of acquisition financing.



So what factors affect your lease rates – first and foremost it is overall credit quality. But let’s review some of the inherent math of leasing to ensure you can make that overall credit quality work for you.


The overall amount of the asset you are financing affects the rate in many cases – larger transactions with higher credit quality also play a large component in the overall final rate. Lease financing in Canada can range from five thousand dollars to 50 million dollars and of course everything in between. The other key factor you should realize is that the term of the lease (in other words the length or amortization of the lease) is also a critical factor in final lease pricing. Longer terms tend to drive better rates. Why is that? Simply because the lease firm is locking in a guaranteed yield on the transaction, and when that yield is even longer in term that affects you’re pricing – usually for the better.


Realize though that in certain cases your overall credit quality of your financial may necessitate a shorter term being offered or approved. In that case lease pricing tends to go up. So a Canadian business who thinks they can get the best rate for a 2 year lease is often mistaken – lessors in Canada tend to prefer lease terms of three to five years.


Many of our clients are unsophisticated financially, so when it comes to lease financing and pricing them also do not fully understand how some structuring features in leasing affects their pricing. When you are asked to provide a lessor with either a down payment or a security deposit this increases the overall yield to the lessor – so you are laying out cash and financing less, therefore driving the rate up.


Utilizing a financial calculator (not a regular calculator) will allow you to exactly determine the exact rate you are being quote. By simply entering values for:


Term
Value of your deal financing
Monthly payment quoted
End of term obligation


Will allow you determine the exact rate you are being quoted.


If you think the rate is too high you of course have the option of calling every lease company in Canada, revealing your financial information, and negotiating a rate. By the way, we don’t recommend that! The best solution is to work with an experienced leasing specialist to ensure he or she feels you have a ‘competitive ‘best rate. THis dangers of doing that on your own are that your financial condition is quickly spread all across the industry, and secondly credit reports on yourself and your firm are potentially drawn and lowering your overall credit scores for your firm and yourself as a potential guarantor


We also advise clients that working with larger more established firms will generally drive the best rate for your transaction. Why is this? Simply because these firms themselves are funded in a more cost effective manner than small firms who are capitalized from private type sources.


In summary: rate of course isn’t everything, but it’s important. Understand the key elements of how a lease price is calculated; work with a trusted advisor to ensure you understand how your firm’s credit quality will be adjudicated. We also note that the type of asset and its overall collateral value play a role in your best lease pricing.

How to Pick a Trusted Financing Advisor

Tweet

Many business owners and financial executives want to ensure they can rely on an independent 'trusted' financing advisor when it comes to their business finances. How does one pick such an advisor? Naturally in today's environment business owners don't have time to waste, and if they have financial or growth challenges they are looking for someone that can bring expertise and solutions to their business.

We are constantly told that business owners are looking for a firm they can trust, respect, and has, of course, credentials.

We believe this whole area of developing a trust between the advisor and the company is a two way street. It is incumbent on the business owner to make sure the goals and needs of the company are made very clear. Business owners or financial managers should not blur the issues to the point that each party does not understand the goals and the respective roles.

When a trusted financing advisor is chosen he or she needs to be given access to the reins and information on the business and its challenges.

Business owners need to ensure that the specialist firm they are dealing with has experience either with the challenges they are facing, or the particular industry the customer is in. Many business financing challenges are industry specific, so this is not the time to be training and advisor on your business! Most people realize though that many financing challenges are somewhat generic in nature, so although an industry expertise is often helpful, it is clearly not always 100% required.

The business owner and financing advisor need to be able to have effective dialogue and communication on what the operational and financing issues are. Many times there are what we call ' warning signs ', yet in other cases companies are already clearly in trouble.

A financing advisor needs to be given information and clarification on issues related to:

- Sales

- Profits

- Current lenders

- Working capital issues

- Asset issues

- Future goals of the company

Naturally the above list is hardly all inclusive, but it is a solid start to the dialogue. The business absolutely has to have a handle on what the intermediate term goals are. Management needs to have a strong sense that the business advisor can assist in the recovery, and the advisor must be given the tools that he or she needs.

Both the business owner and advisor should have frank discussions around the probabilities of success and the timelines associated with that success. What's realistic, what isn't.

Business owners and financial executives should clearly check the background and experience of the advisor. References are of course highly recommended. Professional affiliations are of course important, but not critical. References from lawyers, bankers, and accountants are often excellent sources of information. The business advisor should clearly be indicating they have the right attitude and credentials around the business owners financing needs. It is certainly not unrealistic to have solid discussions around timelines and action items responsibility.

Ultimately business is of course people, so chemistry is important, and the business owner should have a sense they could work with the financing advisor. However, at the end of the day you don't have to like people to get the job done ( it certainly helps though!). Credibility and experience are ultimately always at the top of the list.

All engagements should of course be documented properly re success, work fees, etc. A credible business financing advisor will of course be willing to sign any required non-disclosure document.

In summary, a trusted business financing advisor is a valuable ' out of the company ' asset to any firm. Business owners and financial mangers should choose such an advisor carefully, and pay important attention to the qualities and capabilities that advisor can bring to the table, and ultimately, the firms success.

SR&ED Financing : Your Cash Flow & Working Capital Solution For Your R&D Capital Investment Recovery

Tweet

Turn Your Sr&ed Claim Into Cash Today ? Here’s How!





OVERVIEW – Information on the benefits of sr ed financing in Canada . A Sr&ed loan allows companies to recapture working capital invested in the government tax credit program know as ' SRED'

SR&ED financing (also known as SR ED / SRED Financing) is a very positive working capital strategy to monetize now your SR&ED tax credit filing. Let’s dig in !

Canadian business owners who have filed SR&ED claims in the past are already aware of the great aspects of this program, under which the Canadian federal and provincial governments provide a non repayable grant to your privately owned Canadian company for your expenditures relating to improved products and processes.
The fact that you can recover a very significant portion of your salaries, materials, equipment and portions of overhead is in our opinion the best program in Canada as it relates to government actually really helping Canadian business.
Many clients approach us and ask about ‘government grants and loans ‘. While there are of course many such programs out there the SR&ED program is real money under a much defined process. And it is non repayable – that’s a good thing.

Let’s assume you are aware of the program, have filed claims, or are filing your first claim. The claim is of course filed at the same time you are filing you year end tax return. The claim can be prepared by yourself, but in our experience 99% of claims are best prepared by specialized consultants of your accountant.

So you have prepared a claim and you have filed it. Of course you can wait for your government refund cheque, but that process involves of course also going through the review of your claim by Canada Revenue and in some cases having a technical audit of your claim.

The government website indicates that depending on when you are filing, whether it is a first time claim, and if you are filing for multiple years that you can wait anywhere from 4 – 12 months based on some of the above noted factors. CRA in Canada has a specialized team that works in this area and clients tell us that the overall review of your claim is a fairly standardized process – naturally the overall quality and back up your provide to your claim helps finalize proper adjudication and approval .

Can you get cash and working capital now for your claim? Yes you can. Simply work with a trusted, credible and experienced business advisor in this area and immediate financing can be provided for your claim.


Clients ask what the basic process is over view to get your filed claim financed. It is a very basic process not unlike any standard business financing application. The basic steps are as follows “

-Complete an application – i.e. business details, your current company financials etc
-Provide details of your SR&ED claim

A term sheet can be provided in a matter of days, and claims are financed at generally 70% of the total value of what you have filed, i.e. the combo of the federal and provincial portions. Financing can take place, in our experience in a matter of 2- 4 weeks.

You can of course use your SR&ED loan funds for any general corporate purpose, and no payments are made during the loan period. The loan period ends when you claim is processed by Ottawa and you of course receive the other 30% of the claim at that time, less any financing fees.

Consider maximizing the Canadian SR&ED claim by turning your filing into immediate cash flow. That is a solid working capital strategy that assists your firm in growth and competitiveness.
