Facility Amount: $500,000
The Company: This staffing company was incorporated in 2010 and just recently began official business activity via their contract with a large government contractor for the Department of Defense. This company provides the labor to handle the maintenance, repair, overhaul or upgrade of key air, land and marine equipment.
The Issue: This company needed start-up capital in order to fulfill their contract, meet payroll, and grow their business. The company was not eligible for a bank line of credit due to being a start-up and having a single account concentration.
The Solution: This client was referred to Allied by an existing Allied client. Factoring was the perfect financing solution for this company since they are a start-up and do not yet have any solid financial history. In addition, Allied was able to work with the single account concentration.
The Win: This “Funding by Allied” will enable the company to easily meet their payroll and grow their business, all while building a proven financial track record in hopes of eventually qualifying for a bank line of credit.

Date Funded: 1/6/12
Facility Amount: $5,500,000, including a $1.5M inventory line of credit and a $500K purchase order facility
The Company: This is a privately held corporation based in California that has been in the business of wholesaling health and beauty aid cotton products since 1994.
The Issue: This company is a returning Allied client that originally factored with Allied from 2006 through 2010. They left Allied in 2010 when they obtained a traditional bank line of credit. However, they discovered within a year that factoring was a better fit for their business due to Allied’s more flexible financing structure and entrepreneurial spirit. Allied’s financing does not require any restrictive financial covenants.
The Solution: This client reapproached Allied for financing. In addition to a factoring facility, Allied also provided a $1.5M inventory line of credit and a $500K purchase order facility. Allied’s strong customer service levels, broadened asset based product offerings and flexible financing options encouraged this company to return.
The Win: This “Funding by Allied” will provide the company sufficient working capital to meet their budgeted growth for 2012 while offering less stringent, more flexible terms.

Facility Amount: $2,500,000
The Company: This Northeast based service company is a producer of personalized direct mail and marketing materials (i.e., magazine subscription renewals, credit card solicitations, etc.) for companies and large organizations.
The Issue: After an acquisition in 2010, the company faced operational and financial challenges. Management performed a strategic review of the business, which included elimination of the low margin customers, closing facilities and reducing overhead, while identifying methods to improve efficiencies in the business. Unfortunately, the financial burden was too great and the company began seeking other options, one of which included selling the business.
The Solution: Allied was able to provide acquisition financing allowing the company to be sold through an asset purchase arrangement. The management team and workforce remained intact under the leadership of a new, industry experienced owner. Allied had an opportunity to enter into this transaction because of Joel Flig’s long term relationship with the referral entity and managing member. Flig was introduced on behalf of Allied, and then Allied’s Deal Team worked diligently, coordinating with seven different parties and at least nine different attorneys, to orchestrate the timely funding of this transaction.
The Win: This “Funding by Allied” will provide the company the working capital they need to meet the demands of their business. With this new funding, new management and a new capital and debt structure, the business is expected to become profitable again in 2012.

Date Funded: 9/6/11
Facility Amount: $300,000
The Company: Founded in 2008, this New York based company is the exclusive provider and installer of escalator handrail advertising in the United States. Their product is a non-permanent, patented film applied to an existing escalator handrail using their patented applicator process which allows for advertisements, branding and awareness campaigns to be placed on the handrails of escalators and moving walkways. This company is partnered with the world’s leading escalator handrail manufacturer and provider.
The Issue: Although initially slow to start, the company has recently obtained a tremendous amount of interest from numerous airports to procure this style of advertising. Since they are the exclusive provider of this product/service in the United States, they are growing now at a very rapid speed and need help with cash flow.
The Solution: A banker in New York at one of our referral banks who was familiar with Allied and our referral relationship with the bank, referred this prospect to Tanya Fontenot at Allied. Because the company is essentially a start up with no real financial history for the bank to consider, the bank was unable to provide funding. However, Allied was quickly able to provide a start up/growth capital factoring facility for this company.
The Win: This “Funding by Allied” will not only enable the company to stay current on fees with their licensee/partner, but it will also enable them to bid on more jobs so they can grow their business.
