Netuno
COMPANY
Founded in 1993 by two long time friends, Netuno USA has become a major supplier of quality seafood to the US and other international markets.
OVERVIEW
- The company, a seafood importer, was in default of its revolving line of credit
- The bank had transferred the loan to its workout group, which, in turn, reduced availability and increased the interest rate on the facility
- The above actions severely restricted the company’s working capital and created an over advanced position
ACM VALUE ADD
- ACM was retained to serve as the Chief Financial Officer of the company
- ACM professionals assumed control of treasury management functions and took over all communication with the existing lender
- ACM approached the credit markets seeking a new $5 million revolver with better advance rates that would alleviate the working capital strain
- After only ninety days from the start of the assignment, ACM closed a new $5 million revolver with a large regional bank
- The new facility is priced at 1% above prime – saving approximately $350,000 in annual interest expense
- The new facility provided higher advance rates that led to increased availability at closing, immediately improving the company’s liquidity position
- ACM professionals successfully closed a new $5 million revolver saving the client $350,000 in annual interest expense
