USE CASES

From introduction to impact—specialty finance solutions that deliver

Unlocking liquidity to accelerate strategic transformation

Strategic advisor meeting with a B2B client.

OVERVIEW
A strategic advisory firm working with a B2B services company developes a transformation plan focused on streamlining operations, launching a new service line, and expanding into adjacent markets.

CHALLENGE
The plan requires upfront investments in staff, systems, and marketing, but the business lacks the internal liquidity and has limited borrowing capacity with traditional lenders due to inconsistent historical performance.

SOLUTION
eCapital provides a $7 million working capital facility secured by receivables and future billing streams. This capital enables the client to fund its transformation roadmap without equity dilution, while the advisory firm stays on track with strategic milestones and value creation goals.

Unlocking liquidity to fund expansion after a successful advisory engagement

Financial sponsors meeting with healthcare professionals.

OVERVIEW
A strategic advisory firm works with a mid-market healthcare services provider to design a growth strategy focused on geographic expansion and technology upgrades. The plan is sound, but execution requires a significant increase in working capital to fund onboarding costs, lease expansions, and equipment purchases.

CHALLENGE
The client’s existing credit line is fully utilized, and its bank is unwilling to increase exposure without several months of financial re-evaluation. The advisory firm needs a financing partner who can move quickly and align liquidity with the client’s operational growth plan.

SOLUTION
eCapital collaborates with the advisory team to structure a $12 million asset-based lending facility secured by accounts receivable and equipment. Funding is delivered within weeks, giving the client the liquidity needed to roll out its expansion plan without delay. The advisory firm’s recommendations are successfully implemented, enhancing both client performance and advisor credibility.

Stabilizing cash flow to execute a strategic recovery plan

Attorney meeting with a manufacturing

OVERVIEW
A strategic advisory firm is engaged by a national distributor experiencing cash flow distress following supply chain disruptions and rising material costs. The advisors develop a restructuring plan focused on inventory optimization, supplier renegotiations, and margin recovery.

CHALLENGE
Although the recovery plan is viable, execution requires immediate liquidity to meet payroll, pay suppliers, and prevent further operational slowdowns. The company’s incumbent lender has imposed restrictive covenants, limiting access to much-needed capital.

SOLUTION
Working in tandem with the advisory firm, eCapital provides a $10 million accounts receivable financing facility, giving the company immediate access to working capital by converting invoices into cash. The financing stabilizes liquidity, allowing the advisory firm’s restructuring plan to proceed. Within six months, the company regains profitability and positioned itself for renewed growth.

Providing bridge financing to execute a strategic M&A recommendation

Attorney shaking hands with a client in an office setting.

OVERVIEW
A corporate strategy firm advises a fast-growing B2B technology company to acquire a smaller competitor to accelerate market share growth. The acquisition opportunity is time-sensitive and will strengthen the company’s market positioning, but requires additional working capital to fund due diligence, integration, and short-term operational costs.

CHALLENGE
The company’s existing financing structure does not accommodate acquisition activity, and traditional lenders require extended underwriting timelines that threatened to derail the transaction.

SOLUTION
eCapital works alongside the advisory team to deliver a $20 million bridge financing facility structured around receivables and recurring revenue contracts. The capital allows the acquisition to close within the client’s target window and ensured a seamless transition. The advisory firm successfully delivers its M&A recommendation from strategy to execution, securing measurable value for its client.
