Allied Affiliated Funding announced the following recently closed transactions:
$2 million accounts receivable facility to a current Allied client who wanted to diversify and launch a new company in the healthcare industry. This at-home medical lab services business works with Medicare and third-party insurance companies. With the unknown challenges that come with starting a new company, in addition to the additional hurdles in medical billing, the owners approached Allied for help.
$5 million accounts receivable facility with a $1,000,000 letter of credit to an oil and gas chemical distributor/wholesaler. Though the company used to buy inventory (chemicals) for resale, when the oil and gas market took a downturn their product had to be sold for much less, creating a loss of almost $1,000,000 last year. To protect themselves from future industry downturns, the company changed their business model, essentially becoming a broker of these commodity chemicals. With the losses, their bank lender of ten years did not renew their line, leaving them without working capital or a collateralized letter of credit for their largest supplier.
