US Capital Partners Provides $6 Million Facility Heavily Weighted towards Inventory for Suki
US Capital Partners, LLC finances innovative and expanding US business with higher inventory than accounts receivable, to support marketing drive and strong impending sales growth.
SAN FRANCISCO, APRIL 2013 – US Capital Partners, LLC has provided an accounts receivable line of credit scalable to $5 million together with a $1 million inventory line of credit for Suki, LLC (“Suki”), doing business as OhMiBod®. Suki is the creator of the original iPod® vibrator.US Capital Partners is a private investment bank that makes direct debt investments, participates in debt facilities, and arranges equity placements for small to lower middle market companies.
“We are delighted to have secured this timely financing,” said Brian Dunham, CEO at Suki. “With sales ready to escalate following TV celebrity endorsements and our home-party business model, we required additional working capital to support our current and future inventory needs. We therefore approached US Capital Partners to place a scalable accounts receivable line of credit and an inventory line of credit.”
“Companies with significantly higher inventory than accounts receivable are generally declined by traditional lenders,” said Jeffrey Sweeney, CEO and Managing Director at US Capital Partners. “Inventory and accounts receivable lenders will usually advance financing principally on accounts receivable, and only modestly on inventory based on trailing sales, this being an indicator of inventory credit strength for inventory advances. US Capital Partners is one of the very few lenders in the marketplace that can close a deal where the ratio of inventory to accounts receivable is ‘upside down.’ We are very pleased to have financed this innovative US business.”
