Why does leasing offer such significant advantages specifically for private equity firms?  
 👉 Take advantage of the opportunities offered by "Permitted Financial Indebtedness"!  
  
Leasing and hire purchase can fully leverage their advantages as an additional source of financing, especially in combination with structured group financing arrangements (syndicated loans, unitranche, (Nordic) bonds, etc.).  
  
For a PE portfolio company, it is – particularly in the current market environment – always beneficial to:  
 🔹 finance upcoming investments through leasing (or hire purchase), and  
 🔹 refinance already acquired assets via sale & leaseback!  
  
So where do the advantages lie?  
  
With leasing, financing can be structured:  
 👉 over a longer term (maturity-matched, even beyond the final maturity of the acquisition financing or the exit),  
 👉 at a lower to significantly lower cost (due to greater tax efficiency; particularly relevant with regard to the #InterestBarrier),  
 👉 without requiring the consent of senior lenders (as contractually provided),  
while at the same time:  
 👉 improving cash flow, senior leverage, and the equity ratio, and  
 👉 optimizing the valuation at exit!  
  
And leasing can be implemented quickly – even in Q4 before the reporting date!  
  
Sounds almost too good to be true?  
Let's talk!
