Business Acquisition
A commitment letter is the closest thing to “financing clarity” in the middle of a live acquisition. It is not the final loan agreement, yet it should lock the core economics and conditions so everyone can close.
If you want the full breakdown, see: Secure your acquisition financing with a lender commitment letter.
In plain terms, it confirms the lender’s intent to fund subject to stated conditions. It helps you negotiate with the seller, coordinate diligence, and plan closing steps. It also exposes the real constraints early: leverage limits, covenants, collateral expectations, and closing deliverables.
| Section | Why it matters | Risk if vague |
|---|---|---|
| Facility size and structure | Defines senior debt, any tranche split, amortization logic | Last-minute resizing can break the equity plan |
| Pricing and fees | Sets the true cost of capital and closing costs | Surprises appear at closing and delay approval |
| Collateral and guarantees | Clarifies lien package and sponsor support | Hidden guarantees can kill buyer appetite |
| Conditions precedent | Lists diligence and documentation required to fund | Open-ended CPs turn into moving goalposts |
Problem: the buyer treats a soft indication as a commitment.
Fix: get the core terms in writing, then run diligence against the stated CPs. If the lender is not willing to write down conditions, the “approval” is not mature.
Financely runs acquisition financing as a structured lender process, with a lender-ready package, coordinated outreach, and term sheet workflow. Start with: SMB acquisition finance and our overview of small business acquisitions.
