Intellectual Property Financing

Talk to EdgeWork Today

Lending backed by intellectual property (IP) is a novel approach that enables companies with significant IP assets to access and utilize the value of their intellectual property.

EdgeWork Capital provides support for businesses rich in intellectual property by utilizing industry-leading IP valuation tools and works with insurance companies that offer collateral valuation protection insurance policies around the lending of funds. This enables these businesses to secure loans against their intellectual assets. Additionally, EdgeWork Capital collaborates with a variety of insurance companies and lenders to facilitate these processes.

Companies usually have two primary ways to raise capital: they can sell equity or take on debt, depending on the strength of their balance sheets or cash flows. For new companies with valuable intellectual property, taking on debt may not be feasible, and selling ownership stakes can be less than desirable.

The rise of intellectual property (IP) – including patents, trademarks, copyrights, and trade secrets – has shifted company assets from physical items to intangible ones. However, accounting methods have not always adapted to this change. Consequently, many businesses undervalue intellectual property as a significant component of their worth. IP-backed lending offers business owners an opportunity to obtain debt capital that may be more affordable and less dilutive than traditional equity financing options.

Lending backed by intellectual property presents a new opportunity for both borrowers and lenders to access a valuable and previously underutilized market.

IP has to have generated a minimum of $10 million in revenue.

 

M&A Advisory.

To pursue an efficient acquisition strategy, the buyer needs the right foundational infrastructure – robust IT systems, a strong balance sheet, repeatable financials and operational models, and assets like distribution and sales networks that are set up for expansion.

The buy-and-build strategies that outperform typically rely on multiple paths to value creation. They take full advantage of multiple arbitrage, they identify and capture syneries and operational improvements, and they generate top-line growth.
