“Asset Advantage were the only funder who would offer a 5-year deal for new-start businesses” 📢 Deal of the Week - £30,000 Finance Lease – Tanning Salon Equipment Thank you to Dan Moremon from PMD Business Finance for working with us on this deal. This deal represents the third deal in 15 months that Asset Advantage and PMD have done for this new-start beauty salon. Due to further increase in demand, they are looking to introduce another sunbed to reduce wait times for their customers.   👉 The funding solution £30,000 Finance Lease over 5 years for MegaSun P9S HybridSun sunbed. 👉 Why Asset Advantage? Dan Moremon said: “This customer originally came to me via the supplier, and I knew Asset Advantage were the best option for this customer, so I came straight to them. Asset Advantage are the only funder I know who would offer a 5-year deal for new-start businesses. I appreciate the experience of Vickey and Philip, and the fact that Asset Advantage always look at ways to do a deal.”   💡 Insight from Vickey Want, Assistant Director of Credit: Why I approved this new-start deal. “This new start business had very young directors, however, one had already demonstrated significant marketing expertise, which would be brought to encourage customers to the new salon. The directors were being backed by their parents, and most importantly, despite being young and relatively inexperienced, they had produced a great business plan which inspired confidence. Now, over a year on, we have funded 3 assets for this business, and the business itself is doing very well.” 🌟 We are running a webinar for members of our broker panel on New Start Businesses on Thursday 1 February.

🌟 Edition EIS Scale Up Tranche - Portfolio Spotlight As we continue to preview the businesses included in our 2023/24 Scale Up Tranche, this week’s spotlight is on ✨FOUR QUARTERS ✨ 🌐 Company Overview What began as a single unit on Peckham’s Rye Lane in 2014, FOUR QUARTERS has grown to five arcade bars in Bristol, Newcastle and London. Each site pairs craft beer and themed cocktails with authentically restored 80’s and 90’s gaming machines (think Pac-man, Pinball, Donkey Kong, and Tron to name a few). All machines operate using real US quarters for that nostalgic touch, and hence the name of the business! FOUR QUARTERS is a profitable and expanding business, offering customers the chance to fall in love with their pixelated heroes once again. 📈 Growth FOUR QUARTERS will add at least two further sites to the core estate within 18 months, as it progresses to becoming the UK’s best-loved and most successful arcade bar. We have selected FOUR QUARTERS for the Scale Up Tranche because of management’s proven ability to execute, a dynamic roll-out plan, and fundamental financial strength. 📣 Scale Up Tranche The Edition EIS Scale Up Tranche is open for subscriptions until 2nd April and features profitable-only businesses primed for scale and a carry back facility for investors. Reach out to us for more information as we embark on this exciting next phase of growth with Four Quarters. #PortfolioSpotlight #Investment #Hospitality #Expansion #Leisure #EIS #CarryBack #CapitalAtRisk

When the big deals dry up, Wall Street adjusts and digs deeper into the middle market. The headline story over the last few years is the significant decrease in funding and deal activity - particularly in the earlier stage VC and the later stage PE mega-deals. However, deals in the middle-market space have remained surprisingly robust, as detailed in this The Wall Street Journal article. From the story: "Middle-market deals made up a record 74% of private-equity buyouts by count in 2023, outpacing the previous high of nearly 72% set in 2019, according to PitchBook." It's important to remember that success in every industry comes down to the strength of relationships. Finance is no different. The upside to the big banks of getting involved with smaller companies is the opportunity to build those banking relationships earlier in the business maturation process. Without question those relationships will bear fruit down the road for the banks as those companies grow.
