Home Mezzanine Finance

Mezzanine Finance

Flexible Financing to Bridge Growth and Opportunity

Mezzanine finance is a form of subordinated debt that stands behind senior debt in the hierarchy of claims on property assets, yet it precedes equity. This financial instrument is usually secured by a second mortgage on the property being developed. It is designed to fill the funding gap between the developer’s equity contribution and the amount of senior debt available.

At Alpha1 Financial Solutions, our experienced team specialises in mezzanine finance solutions. We’ll guide you through the process, connect you with suitable lenders and negotiate competitive terms to help you achieve your business goals. Whether you’re a property developer seeking project funding or a business owner looking to expand operations, we’ll equip you with the knowledge to make informed decisions.

Mezzanine Finance

What Is Mezzanine Debt Finance?

Mezzanine finance combines debt and equity features to help companies raise capital for expansion, acquisitions, or major projects without significantly diluting equity. Positioned between senior debt and equity, it offers higher yields due to its subordinate ranking and may include equity conversion rights. Businesses gain capital without immediate ownership loss, while lenders benefit from higher returns and potential equity stakes, albeit with greater risk.

When to use

Why Choose Mezzanine Loan Financing?

Mezzanine loan financing is an attractive option for businesses seeking capital due to its higher leverage, flexible terms and potential for preserving ownership control. It offers a unique blend of debt and equity financing to fuel growth and bridge funding gaps. 

  • Increased Borrowing Capacity - By incorporating mezzanine finance, developers can enhance their borrowing capacity without diluting their equity stake.
  • Flexibility - The terms of mezzanine finance are often more flexible than those of senior debt, allowing for tailored repayment schedules and covenants.
  • Control Retention - Developers can retain control of the project, since mezzanine lenders typically do not demand ownership stakes or significant decision-making power.

HOW IT WORKS

How to Apply for a Mezzanine Loan?

Step 1: Initial Consultation and Project Assessment
We begin by understanding your business objectives, funding requirements and project details. We’ll discuss your growth strategy, financial position and desired loan terms.

Step 2: Submission of Financial and Project Details
Once we’ve defined the exact requirements of your bridging loan finance, we’ll leverage our experience and network of lenders to negotiate the best bridging loan finance rate for you.

Step 3: Indicative Offer and Due Diligence
Once a lender expresses interest, they may provide an indicative offer outlining the proposed loan terms and conditions. We’ll then assist you with the due diligence process, which may involve in-depth financial analysis, market research and legal reviews.

Step 4: Formal Approval and Fund Disbursement
If the due diligence is satisfactory, the lender will issue a formal loan approval. We’ll review the terms with you, clarify any queries and negotiate on your behalf to secure the best possible outcome. Once the final agreement is reached, the funds will be disbursed, allowing you to proceed with your project.

FAQs

FAQs About Mezzanine Finance

What makes mezzanine finance different from equity financing?

Mezzanine finance differs from equity financing because it allows you to secure funding without giving up significant equity in your business. Unlike equity financing, it is structured as debt that converts to equity only if repayment conditions are not met.

What is the typical loan-to-value ratio (LVR) for mezzanine finance?

Lenders generally offer mezzanine finance with an LVR of 70-85%, depending on the project type, the borrower’s profile, and the value of any senior debt in place.

Are there any restrictions on how mezzanine finance funds can be used?

Mezzanine finance is versatile and can be used for various purposes, including property development, business expansion, acquisitions, and refinancing, as long as the lender approves the use case.

How is the interest rate determined for mezzanine finance?

Interest rates for mezzanine finance are typically higher than senior debt due to the increased risk. Rates depend on factors such as the project’s size, the borrower’s creditworthiness and the overall risk profile.
