Few deals create a win-win situation as effectively as sale-leasebacks do.
In a leaseback, both the buyer and the seller benefit immensely from the agreement, because each can protect their business interests and grow their respective enterprises. Therefore, it comes as no surprise that a sale-leaseback is a popular equipment financing solution among our network of business owners and entrepreneurs. In fact, many European retail businesses say they will turn to sale-leasebacks to bounce back in 2021.
Regents Capital Corporation will walk you through our sale-leaseback process, so you’re empowered to boost your business in the future too!
Sale-Leasebacks by Regents Capital
A sale-leaseback is a financial transaction involving a sale of an asset to be leased back to the seller.
First, a business seeks a fresh inflow of cash from the sale of its asset, usually a piece of equipment. An entity — in this case, Regents Capital — buys the equipment and becomes the new owner. Then, the entity leases it back to the business that sold it.
By entering a sale-leaseback arrangement, the business raises capital and, at the same time, keeps using the asset it needs to continue operations. It also keeps the company’s balance sheets healthy, compared to other ways of raising capital.
For instance, if the business decides to take out a loan instead of a leaseback, the loan will have to be repaid and will be listed as a debt in the balance sheet. On the other hand, a leaseback transaction can raise the assets in the form of cash. And instead of listing debt, the business can count rent payments as business expenses.
The new owners also benefit from the ownership of a cash-flowing asset, backed by a long-term lease. Additionally, this investment doesn’t require much management.
