CHALLENGED
SITUATION
Client: Global Fund
The Challenge
An operating business backed by real estate in growth phase, loss making and requiring existing lender refinance together with additional capital to fit out new tenant space. Our client was seeking very limited covenants over a five-year term to provide the business with time and stability to execute the business plan. It had previously undertaken a wide-market refinance process but had failed.
Our Role
Bayhead was appointed to source debt capital to replace existing loan. Together with the client, we produced a detailed Information Memorandum and then ran very discrete process to a small group of lenders we knew had the flexible capital to consider this asset situation.
The Outcome
Successful refinance and business on a stable footing.
