Debt Advisory & Placement

Debt advisory for complex financing decisions.

Sabine Growth Capital Partners advises middle-market companies, fund managers and sponsors on debt financing, refinancing and recapitalizations. We assess cash flow, collateral and existing obligations, develop the financing strategy, and manage a targeted lender process across banks, non-bank lenders and private credit funds.

Analytical advisory

More than lender access.

A lender list is not a financing strategy. Before approaching the market, Sabine evaluates what the business can support, how the facility should be structured and which credit issues need to be addressed. We then prepare lender-ready materials and manage a targeted placement process.

Financing solutions

Middle-Market Debt Advisory

Debt advisory and placement across refinancing, asset-based finance, corporate credit, acquisitions and fund finance. Each mandate begins with the financing requirement and the credit, not a preferred lender channel.

Refinancing & Recapitalization

Debt advisory for upcoming maturities, lender transitions and capital structures that no longer fit the business. We assess debt capacity, existing obligations and liquidity needs, then develop a targeted refinancing strategy.

Asset-Based & Structured Credit

Financing evaluated against receivables, inventory, equipment and other identifiable collateral. We analyze borrowing-base availability, structure the facility and identify appropriate bank, non-bank and specialty finance providers.

Corporate Credit

Senior, unitranche and junior debt for growth, investment and general corporate needs. We compare facility structures, cash-flow requirements, covenants and lender fit.

Acquisition & Ownership Transition

Debt financing for acquisitions, shareholder redemptions and ownership transitions. We evaluate the proposed transaction against the business’s debt capacity and ongoing liquidity needs.

Fund Finance

Warehouse and SPV facilities, subscription and capital-call lines, NAV facilities and management-company financing. We evaluate borrowing entities, repayment sources, collateral and lender requirements.

Structuring & Analysis

Debt-capacity modeling, collateral and borrowing-base analysis, liquidity planning, covenant assessment and lender-ready materials. Define a supportable financing structure before approaching lenders.

Channel neutral

We work for the borrower.

Different situations belong in different markets. Sabine compares capital across three lender channels so the recommendation follows the mandate—not a house product.

  • 01

    Banks

    Commercial banks and specialist teams offer corporate lending, asset-based financing and fund finance. They can be a strong fit when cash flow, collateral and the broader banking relationship meet their credit requirements.

  • 02

    Non-bank lenders

    Specialty finance companies, factors and warehouse providers offer financing built around particular assets, receivables or structures. We consider these lenders when a specialized approach fits the borrowing need.

  • 03

    Private credit funds

    Direct lending funds and business development companies provide senior, unitranche and junior capital. We assess their capacity and structural flexibility alongside pricing, covenants and execution requirements.

How we work

Understand. Structure. Position. Place.

  1. 01

    Understand

    Evaluate the business, financing objective, timing, financial performance, collateral and existing obligations. Identify missing information and issues that could affect execution.

  2. 02

    Structure

    Test debt capacity, liquidity and borrowing-base availability. Develop sources and uses, proposed capitalization and lender-selection criteria, including downside scenarios.

  3. 03

    Prepare lender-ready materials that explain the request, repayment sources, collateral, key risks and supporting evidence. Resolve material information gaps before starting outreach.

  4. 04

    Place

    Run targeted lender outreach, compare proposals and negotiate commercial terms. Coordinate diligence, documentation and closing requirements with management, lenders and counsel. Financing remains subject to approval and definitive documents.

The firm

Senior judgment. Direct accountability.

Sabine is built for mandates where the details matter: unusual structures, competing objectives, time pressure and lender selection across markets.
