Support Strategic Transitions
Disciplined structures that support timing-sensitive transactions and maintain operational stability
Bridge and mezzanine financing are used when timing, liquidity, or structural requirements exceed the flexibility of traditional facilities. We structure and secure disciplined solutions that allow companies to complete acquisitions, manage transitional obligations, or bridge to permanent financing — without disrupting operations or long-term stability.
Addressing timing, liquidity, or structural constraints
Bridge and mezzanine financing become relevant when immediate requirements cannot be met through existing facilities. Common drivers include closing deadlines, refinancing execution risk, sequencing of lender approvals, covenant resets, temporary liquidity needs, or timing gaps related to asset sales or long-term financing. These situations require a structure capable of supporting the business through a defined transition window.
A temporary structure that preserves continuity and aligns with defined future events
The objective is to establish a controlled framework that supports the business during a short and clearly defined period. This includes maintaining liquidity, ensuring operational stability, aligning repayment with confirmed future cash-flow events, and preventing short-term requirements from constraining long-term financing arrangements.
A disciplined architecture for bridging short-term and subordinated obligations
We assess timing constraints, repayment sources, refinancing pathways, and lender expectations to engineer a structure that manages transitional risk while reinforcing financial discipline. This framework improves predictability, reduces execution risk, and ensures a smooth progression toward permanent financing or other planned outcomes.
Each mandate presents distinct requirements — acquisition-related timing gaps, inter-facility refinancing, temporary liquidity constraints, or conditions tied to lender approvals. We tailor the structure to address these specific elements while ensuring full compatibility with the company’s financial profile, cash-flow capacity, and longer-term objectives.
Tailored to Transitional Needs
Sustainable Outcomes
Although temporary, these facilities must remain manageable and clearly anchored to validated repayment events. By ensuring obligations align with refinancing outcomes, asset sales, or defined cash-flow ramp-ups, we help maintain stability throughout the transition and protect the integrity of the company’s long-term financing structure.
It refers to short-term or subordinated debt structures used to support acquisitions, liquidity requirements, or refinancing events when permanent financing is not yet available.
Typically during acquisitions, refinancing transitions, lender approval sequencing, covenant resets, or timing gaps between financial events.
We assess timing constraints, cash-flow expectations, repayment sources, and the pathway to long-term financing to design a solution that is sustainable and lender-aligned.
A disciplined structure ensures the facility remains temporary, predictable, and in line with the company’s long-term financing objectives.
Risks relate to timing, execution of the long-term financing event, lender alignment, and cash-flow variability. These remain manageable when the structure is tied to validated repayment sources and a confirmed refinancing path.
