Equipment Financing Q&A

Common questions regarding underwriting guidelines, cash-flow evaluation, and Section 179 tax rules.

01. Can we utilize a Sale-Leaseback or Refinance structure to unlock working capital?

Yes. If your business owns hard machinery, commercial vehicles, or heavy equipment outright (or has significant paid-off equity), you can execute a Sale-Leaseback or Refinance Cash-Out.

Underwriting establishes the Orderly Liquidation Value (OLV) or Fair Market Value (FMV) of the asset. Capital is then issued up to 75% to 80% of the asset's evaluated value, structured as a standard Equipment Finance Agreement (EFA). The capital disbursed is unrestricted working capital.

02. Does an Equipment Finance Agreement result in a blanket UCC-1 lien over my entire business?

No. Under a standard Equipment Finance Agreement or Capital Lease, a specific-asset UCC-1 filing is attached strictly to the serial numbers and VINs of the equipment being acquired.

Unlike a traditional bank line of credit, our specialized equipment network does not place a blanket lien over your accounts receivable, inventory, or unencumbered business assets.

03. What specific cash-flow metrics do underwriters analyze for App-Only approvals up to $350,000?

In an App-Only submission (where standard long-form packages are waived), underwriting algorithms evaluate three primary cash-flow indicators across your 3 most recent bank statements:

  • Average Daily Balance (ADB): Ensures your account maintains sufficient liquidity to absorb the new monthly equipment payment.
  • Deposit Volume & Frequency: Requires consistent monthly revenue—typically demonstrating a baseline minimum of $20,000+ in monthly gross receipts.
  • NSF & Debt Stacking: Scans for excessive NSF occurrences and measures the burden of existing daily/weekly short-term ACH debt payments against incoming revenue.
04. How does Section 179 tax deduction interact with equipment financing?

IRS Section 179 rules dictate that equipment must be placed in service—not merely purchased or invoiced—before midnight on December 31st of that tax year.

An Equipment Finance Agreement (EFA) acts as a loan where the borrower takes immediate ownership and title, qualifying for 100% of the allowable Section 179 depreciation in the year deployed, even if you have only made zero or one monthly payment to the lender. (Always verify timing with your CPA).
