At Abacus Finance, we specialize in cash-flow-based, senior secured loans to lower middle-market private equity- and family-office-backed companies. Our tailored approach emphasizes speed, certainty, and trusted collaboration—ensuring our sponsor clients can move quickly and confidently through each stage of the deal process. Whether it’s new platform investments, add-ons, or refinancings, our solutions are built for momentum and success.

Unlike traditional loans, our cash-flow-based lending solutions allow you to leverage your company’s past and projected revenue to secure financing for your next acquisition. Access capital faster and obtain more flexible terms from trusted private lenders for business acquisitions without having to pledge your company’s physical assets as collateral.

We work across a wide range of industries, bringing more than 125 years of combined experience to the lower-middle-market lending sector. Our sponsor finance lending solutions are tailored to ambitious private equity- and family-office-backed companies looking to upgrade and expand operations.

When Your Next Acquisition Can’t Wait

When it comes to acquisitions, every delay is a missed opportunity that can cost you thousands or even millions of dollars in upside potential. Underwriting an asset-backed loan can take weeks or even months, and lenders typically don’t allow firms to borrow against the full value of the asset.

Our sponsor-backed lending solutions are ideal for asset-light companies with a strong cash flow, such as start-ups, service-based companies, and lower-middle-market firms. They provide immediate liquidity for smaller companies looking to remain competitive in tougher markets. Because the underwriting process depends on revenue rather than assets, we can approve financing much faster than with asset-based funding. This means no more delays or missed opportunities.

A Partner You Can Trust

Lower-middle-market firms need every advantage they can get, including agile financing that considers the whole picture. When you partner with Abacus Finance, we’ll pair you with senior-level professionals who personally handle your financing needs. This hands-on approach ensures more streamlined communications and creative financing solutions from an expert who knows your business inside and out. Our priority? Long-lasting partnerships with each one of our clients. Explore all our cash-flow-based lending options, or reach out for a consultation today.
