MIAMI – November 14, 2024 – eCapital Corp. (“eCapital”), a leading tech-enabled finance provider specializing in tailored solutions for businesses across North America and the United Kingdom, announced the successful completion of a $30 million asset-based lending (ABL) facility for an established energy services company. The funding will support a significant Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP) transaction, marking a pivotal milestone in the company’s transition to employee ownership and its commitment to workforce empowerment.

The transaction was completed in collaboration with ButcherJoseph & Co., a leading investment bank specializing in ESOPs and ownership transitions, whose expertise in employee ownership structures was instrumental in successfully executing this ESOP transaction. The complexity of this deal required a lender with in-depth knowledge of both the energy services industry and the intricacies of employee ownership structures, which eCapital provided through its specialized financing and industry experience.

“This was a highly competitive transaction, and our strong client relationship, coupled with deep industry knowledge, gave us the edge,” said Brian Cuttic, CEO of ABL at eCapital. “By structuring the ABL facility around the company's accounts receivables and specialized equipment, we provided the flexibility needed to manage the demand and cyclical variations in job volume - challenges common in the energy services sector. Our collaboration with ButcherJoseph further strengthened our ability to deliver a solution that empowers not just this company, but businesses across various industries to grow and thrive.”

This transaction highlights eCapital’s role as a trusted partner, committed to providing customized financing solutions and industry expertise to empower small and medium-sized businesses to achieve their growth objectives.
