OUR EXPERTISE

What We Cover in Private Credit

01

Deal Screening & Opportunity Assessment

Rapidly assessing potential private credit opportunities through borrower profiles, sector context, leverage review, business model quality, and initial risk-return assessment. We help investment teams prioritize opportunities before committing deeper diligence bandwidth.

02

Borrower & Business Due Diligence

Analyze borrower fundamentals, revenue drivers, customer concentration, margin stability, working capital intensity, cyclicality, and competitive positioning. Our research helps lenders understand whether the business can sustain debt through changing market conditions.

03

Financial Spreading & Credit Analysis

Convert borrower financials into structured credit analysis covering revenue trends, profitability, cash flow generation, leverage, coverage, liquidity, capex needs, and debt servicing capacity, amortization and interest payment (cash / PIK) schedules, borrowing base capacities, and monthly cash flow forecasts. We help create a cleaner, decision-ready view of credit quality.

04

Highlight key investment merits, risks, and structural considerations. Assessed sources & uses of funds, transaction structure, and deal participants. Our outputs support faster internal approvals and sharper investment discussions.

05

Cash Flow & Debt Capacity Analysis

Evaluate normalized EBITDA, free cash flow, debt service capacity, repayment ability, leverage and interest coverage trends, and downside resilience, conducting scenario and sensitivity analysis. We help credit investors assess how much leverage a borrower can support without weakening risk protection.

06

Covenant & Documentation Review

Track financial, maintenance, and incurrence covenants, reporting requirements, baskets, restrictions, security packages, guarantees, and key lender protections. We help identify covenant weaknesses, flexibility risks, and potential early warning indicators.
