Understanding the Capital Needs of Truck Dealers
Truck dealerships operate in a capital-intensive environment. From inventory financing to facilities expansion, working capital to succession planning, every stage of a dealership’s life cycle presents distinct capital challenges. At our auto dealer advisory firm, we offer deep domain expertise in structuring capital to match both short-term operating needs and long-term strategic objectives.
We advise on:
- Inventory Financing (Floorplan Lending): Structuring or renegotiating lines of credit to enhance liquidity and margin flexibility.
- Growth Capital: Raising senior or mezzanine debt and equity to support acquisitions, new locations, or vertical integration (e.g., leasing, service centers).
- Ownership Transitions & Recapitalizations: Guiding dealer principals through buyouts, generational transitions, and ESOPs with smart, tax-aware capital structuring.
- M&A Advisory: Leveraging capital markets to drive consolidation strategies, secure financing for roll-ups, or manage divestitures.
