Mezzanine Financing Services

Mezzanine Financing provides businesses with an alternative to issuing more stock or taking on overly burdensome senior debt. Ideal for mid-market organizations aiming to finance expansions, buyouts, or new product lines, mezzanine capital typically features an interest component plus potential equity warrants. This structure appeals to borrowers needing substantial funding but wanting to avoid diluting current shareholders.
‍
Commercial Finance Partners helps you position your business to attract mezzanine investors by analyzing cash flow projections, growth potential, and risk profiles. We negotiate terms that balance your repayment capabilities with attractive investor returns, ensuring you don’t relinquish excessive control. The result is a strategic infusion of capital—complementing senior loans—that supports transformative initiatives. As your revenue scales, these subordinated obligations can be repaid systematically, preserving ownership stakes and fueling continued upward progress.
