Factoring Options for Bankruptcy Reorganization

DIP Financing Lender for Small Business

Businesses in financial distress find their sources of new funding shrink just when they need cash flow financing the most. A company’s ability to obtain new monies advanced from their current lender may be cut off, and they may also default on their loan covenants. Does a potential business bankruptcy loom large because of financial difficulties caused by triple digits MCA loans or customers not paying you? Are you behind on your small business loan payments? Can you get a business loan after bankruptcy or even during the bankruptcy process? Is no lender talking to you because of your credit report or credit history?

Unpaid Taxes Piling Up?

Many times, businesses are also behind on their tax payments. This is where Debtor in Possession (DIP) Financing from Bankers Factoring can help to utilize non-recourse invoice factoring if their continuing operation is in jeopardy, and they are contemplating filing for Chapter 11 bankruptcy as an option. You are also worried about being shielded from personal liability.

For many distressed companies, there is hope for new financing. Using the United States Bankruptcy Courts, they can file for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection. This will allow them to take advantage of Debtor-in-Possession (DIP) financing to help them reverse course, give them restructuring support, and return to profitability. You can utilize alternative lenders as part of the reorganization process, like Bankers Factoring.

Debtor in possession financing is available for companies with as little as $100,000 B2B sales per month. Please read the top strategies to avoid business bankruptcy.

Even with an SBA loan, you can use DIP financing or small business bankruptcy factoring.

Debtor in Possession (DIP) Factoring as a Distressed Solution

Many lenders and other financing sources see Debtor in Possession financing as an attractive lending opportunity because of the special treatment that business bankruptcy loans receive under U.S. bankruptcy law. Under the law, DIP creditors are typically repaid before other creditors, even with bruised credit scores.

In fact, lenders will commit to a DIP Chapter 11 loan while they would not make a loan commitment to the same business in the absence of a bankruptcy filing because of the priority over existing debt, equity, and other claims.

What is the DIP Financing Process?

In DIP restructuring finance, the assets pledged as collateral must be sufficient to cover the debtor in possession financing, business bankruptcy loan, or credit facility. As part of the reorganization plan, Bankers Factoring offers you an A/R based debtor in possession financing facility.

Here’s how the DIP Chapter 11 financing process works:

When the company has located a DIP factoring company willing to finance its turnaround, it seeks court approval from the Bankruptcy Court. Typical DIP financing terms include a “first priority” security interest in the collateral, a market rate or even a premium rate of interest, an approved budget, and other lender protections. Creditors may object to the factoring facility if they feel it weakens their position. The Bankruptcy Court will decide whether to approve the new credit facility or loan.

Current Lenders Before Bankruptcy

If a company in Chapter 11 bankruptcy has existing secured loans and wants to borrow on a secured basis that is equal or senior to the existing loans:

  1. It will need to obtain the existing lender’s consent for the new facility, for example, from the Bank’s workout group, Small Business Administration or SBA.
  2. Or it will have to convince the Bankruptcy Court that the existing lender on your SBA loans will be “adequately protected” (their position will not be degraded by the new DIP credit facility).

A current lender who provided financing to the firm before its bankruptcy filing may be willing to commit to a DIP business bankruptcy loan, even if it has declined to make further advances before the bankruptcy proceeding. In addition to the added protection under the Bankruptcy Code, the lender may also have its own goals in making the DIP loan, for example, to help improve the company so that it can be sold to another party.

If The Bankruptcy Court Approves DIP Financing

If the Bankruptcy Court approves a DIP loan or funding facility and finds that it was made in good faith, the loan will not be subject to legal challenge. That differs from the same loan made outside of bankruptcy, which might have been subject to challenge.

Also, if your company has solid A/R but is losing money and the personal credit of the owners is low, Bankers Factoring can help with costs similar to credit card interest rates. Still, many banks and traditional lenders cannot offer an A/R-based business line of credit for a myriad of reasons.

How is Bankers Factoring’s Accounts Receivable Factoring used in DIP Financing?

Companies can also use A/R factoring as a financing tool in DIP financing, a possibility that many small business owners do not realize. Accounts receivable financing can be the fastest and most flexible way to obtain debtor in possession financing and recapitalization during the Chapter 11 bankruptcy process.

DIP Factoring can be a win-win for both the borrowing company and the factoring firm. The company obtains needed financing not based on its credit status, and the DIP factoring firm achieves priority status under the Bankruptcy Code. Has merchant cash advances caused your bankruptcy?
