Lenders Get Better Results With Higher Risk Loans
Arrow

KGI Advisors Inc., a financial advisory firm, often represents lenders involved in higher risk financing transactions - new loans as well as restructuring or extension of existing loans.

Many lenders ask KGI to produce a Quality of Cash Flow Projections (QCFP) report. Benefits of a QCFP report to a lender include:

  • Credible analysis of a borrower's liquidity and projected cash flow
  • Strategies and analysis for loan structuring and pricing
  • An independent and objective third-party professional report
  • Completion of critical transaction due diligence
  • Additional talent and resources to efficiently complete transactions
  • Compilation of key observations and findings, assumptions, and data

A QCFP report is a valuable resource to lenders for:

  • New loans in higher risk situations, including bridge financings
  • Loan restructuring
  • Additional lending required by an existing borrower
  • Forbearance or extension to complete a capital transaction, including a sale or refinancing

KGI's Quality of Cash Flow Projections analyze and assess:

  • Income statement and balance sheet integration
  • Credibility of financial models and underlying assumptions
  • Financial covenants and credit ratios
  • Profitability improvements
  • Historical to forecast/projection comparisons
  • Borrowing base and collateral coverage
  • Reserves and one-time/non-recurring items
  • Sensitivities and alternative scenarios

Depending upon the lender's requirements, KGI can deliver either a written report or a compilation of critical data and analyses. A QCFP is typically completed in 2 to 6 weeks, depending on the scope of work and the availability and quality of the company's data and information.
