With a deep understanding of corporate finance and extensive experience working with businesses across industries, Huntington National Bank provides personalized lending solutions that address the specific challenges and goals of each organization. Whether companies need to secure working capital, finance a new real estate development, or manage their debt portfolio, Huntington’s lending services are designed to help businesses achieve their financial objectives.


Asset-Based Lending

Asset-based lending (ABL) is a specialized form of lending that allows businesses to borrow against their assets, such as accounts receivable, inventory, equipment, or real estate. Huntington National Bank’s asset-based lending solutions provide companies with access to revolving lines of credit or term loans based on the value of their assets, offering a flexible and scalable financing option.

Key Features:

  • Revolving Credit Lines: Businesses can secure a revolving line of credit that adjusts based on the value of their assets, providing ongoing access to working capital. This is ideal for businesses with fluctuating cash flow needs, allowing them to draw funds as needed and repay them as their financial situation improves.
  • Term Loans: Huntington also offers term loans under asset-based lending arrangements, allowing businesses to leverage their assets for a lump-sum loan that can be used for large capital expenditures, acquisitions, or debt refinancing.
  • Collateral-Based Lending: With asset-based lending, businesses pledge their assets as collateral, which reduces the risk for the lender and often results in more favorable loan terms. Huntington carefully evaluates the company’s asset base to determine the loan amount and structure that best suits its needs.
  • Flexibility and Scalability: As a company’s assets grow, so does its borrowing capacity. This makes asset-based lending a scalable solution that evolves with the business, ensuring that access to capital increases in tandem with the company’s asset base.

Who Benefits from Asset-Based Lending?

  • Manufacturers, Distributors, and Wholesalers: Companies with significant inventory or accounts receivable benefit from Huntington’s asset-based lending solutions by unlocking liquidity tied up in their assets.
  • Seasonal Businesses: Businesses with seasonal cash flow fluctuations can leverage their assets to access the working capital they need during slower periods and repay when revenue picks up.
  • Rapidly Growing Companies: Businesses experiencing growth but facing challenges in securing traditional financing can use asset-based lending to fuel expansion without diluting ownership or taking on restrictive debt covenants.

The bank helps businesses refinance existing debt on more favorable terms or restructure their obligations to improve cash flow and reduce financial strain.
  • Leveraged Buyouts (LBOs): Huntington provides financing for leveraged buyouts, enabling businesses or private equity firms to acquire companies using a combination of debt and equity. The bank’s corporate finance team works closely with businesses to structure LBO transactions that maximize value while minimizing risk.
