Aviation case study

Invoice discounting facility facilitates Management Buyout

Hilton-Baird Financial Solutions is delighted to have assisted a business servicing the aviation sector in securing the funds required to facilitate a Management Buyout (MBO).

Established over 30 years ago, our client was looking to undertake an MBO whereby one of the founding members of the company would buy out the existing chairman, with the outgoing shareholder retaining a non-executive role.

To facilitate this MBO, Hilton-Baird’s team worked with the management team to evaluate the funding requirements thoroughly and ascertain the most appropriate options. As with many MBOs, there was a need to utilise cash reserves to complete the transaction, so cash flow became key.

Utilising our specialist knowledge of the commercial finance market, our team identified funders who would suit our client’s needs and were able to flex their requirements around security to fit the circumstances. A confidential invoice discounting facility was subsequently secured against their UK sales ledger.

We are thrilled to have supported our client with securing the right cash flow facility to move forward under their new management structure and we look forward to seeing them go from strength to strength.

Hilton-Baird Financial Solutions helps businesses identify the most suitable funding for a wide range of funding requirements. To explore your options with our award-winning team, please call 0800 9774833 or schedule a call back.
