Revolving Working Capital Credit Facilities for U.S. Exporters

We arrange revolving credit lines that convert export receivables and eligible inventory into dependable working capital. You get an asset-based facility with clear controls, lender-standard reporting, and a path to increase availability as sales grow. We handle structuring, underwriting, and distribution to lenders that actually close.

Straight talk: if you can evidence clean receivables, traceable inventory, and repeat exports, we can package a borrowing base that supports a revolving line. No drama. No vague promises.

What you get

  • Facility type: revolving ABL against export A/R and eligible inventory. Purchase order add-on if needed.
  • Use of proceeds: production, freight, supplier terms, duty, and general working capital tied to export orders.
  • Tenor: 12 to 36 months with automatic renewals subject to performance.
  • Pricing: spread over SOFR or Base Rate, commitment fee, and unused line fee. Final terms set by credit outcome.
  • Optional support: U.S. EXIM Working Capital Guarantee Program to expand availability on foreign A/R, where eligible.

Borrowing base, at a glance

Collateral Typical advance Key exclusions
Export A/R 70% to 90% based on buyer quality and terms Contra, intercompany, disputes, past-due beyond aging cap
Inventory 30% to 65% on finished goods and raw materials Obsolete, consignment, work-in-process except where carved out
PO finance add-on Case by case with takeout via A/R availability Unconfirmed orders, buyers in restricted markets

Availability equals the lower of the borrowing base or the committed line, less reserves. Lenders may require dominion of funds and a lockbox with a deposit account control agreement.

How we work

  1. Screening call and data room. We map the collateral, buyers, seasonality, and shipment terms. You upload AR agings, inventory reports, contracts, bank statements, tax returns, and management accounts.
  2. Underwriting file. We build the borrowing base model, covenant set, intercreditor needs, and a lender pack that stands up to credit committee.
  3. Distribution. We run a targeted process to asset-based lenders and specialty banks with export appetite. We are chaperoned and operate with forward flow relationships.
  4. Term sheet and closing. We negotiate pricing, reserves, borrowing base language, audit cadence, and reporting. We project-manage documents through to first draw.
