Pandemic Losses Led to Debt Restructuring for This TN Company

The Company
This Company is a Tennessee-based concrete polishing and restoration service provider.

The Situation
The business has been around for a while but struggled through the pandemic. Having suffered losses for the past couple of years, covenant violations necessitated the refinancing of the Company’s bank debt and mezzanine financing. The mezzanine lender brought in Celtic Capital.

The Solution
Celtic Capital provided the Company with a $2,000,000 Accounts Receivable Line of Credit, a $400,000 Inventory Line of Credit and a $950,000 Equipment Loan. Our funding paid off the bank (line of credit and Company credit cards) and helped restructure the mezzanine debt.

The Result
Now that the refinancing has been completed, the Company’s focus is to turn around the P&L and put pandemic losses behind it. Management is encouraged in that prospects for 2023 are looking very good.
