Equipment Financing and Leasing

Leasing is the simplest, smartest, and most cost effective way to acquire new and used equipment. Benefits to your business include:

  • Speed. Access funds quickly and easily to get your equipment in operation and generating revenue fast.
  • Expedited Profitability. Match the financing payment term with the additional revenue generated by the equipment to achieve profitability as quickly as possible.
  • Flexible and Customized Solutions. Tailor a program to fit your month-to-month or year-to-year cash flow needs. Easily add or upgrade at any point during the lease term through add-on or master leases.
  • 100% financing. Finance 100% of any purchase, including all applicable taxes, maintenance, training and supplies (up to 30%).
  • Tax Savings. Deduct lease payments from your corporate income.*
  • Improved Cash Forecasting with Fixed Payments. Hedge against rising interest rates by locking in a low monthly payment that is fixed for the term of the lease.
  • Balance sheet management. Structure the lease as an operating expense, and the debt will not appear on your balance sheet as a liability. Because lease payments are treated as expenses, they can be written off immediately. Both your financials and tax treatment benefit.*
 

*Check with your tax advisor to see how this may apply to you.
