A private equity-backed Energy & Utilities Services company faced significant cash flow challenges due to rapid growth and the need for immediate funding to sustain operations. Approaching $250 million in revenue through multiple entities, the parent company is a leader in large-scale energy and infrastructure projects for Fortune 500 clients. However, milestone-based invoicing with extended payment terms created financial strain during peak demand, requiring additional liquidity to maintain momentum and meet project commitments.
SouthStar Capital provided the company with a customized $4.5 million A/R Facility, addressing its working capital needs while maintaining its relationship with the existing senior lender. This facility carved out specific receivables owed by key debtors, ensuring the company could continue operations, support critical infrastructure initiatives, and expand its project capacity. With this funding in place, the company is well-positioned to take on larger contracts, further reinforcing its leadership in the energy and utilities sector. This transaction highlights SouthStar Capital’s ability to deliver flexible financing solutions that empower businesses to overcome financial challenges and capitalize on new opportunities.
