Mezzanine Finance Advisory.
Mezzanine finance sits between senior debt and equity — subordinated, higher-cost, and often carrying an equity-linked feature such as warrants, used when senior debt alone can't cover the full requirement.
Subordinated Capital · Equity-Linked Debt · Capital Stack Gap Funding
Where This Applies
- Senior debt alone doesn't cover the full capital requirement for the transaction.
- The promoter wants to limit dilution compared to raising the full gap as pure equity.
- A subordinated position is acceptable in exchange for capital that ranks behind senior lenders.
- An equity-linked feature such as warrants can help price the risk appropriately.
How We Approach It
We size mezzanine capital to close the specific gap between what senior lenders will underwrite and what the transaction needs, structuring the equity-linked feature and repayment terms to match the promoter's own dilution comfort.
