Equipment finance that understands your business

Equipment that helps your business move forward.

Production businesses balance creative needs with equipment costs, project cycles, and frequent technology upgrades. A financing structure should consider where equipment will earn its keep and how it fits into an evolving production workflow.

Cameras, lighting, audio equipment and post-production systems can carry significant acquisition costs. Rather than focusing only on the monthly payment, we look at the equipment’s use, the business model and how the purchase supports production capacity.

The exact assets eligible for financing vary by program, equipment specifications and the applicant's business profile.

  • Live-event and production audio systems

  • Switchers, control rooms and virtual-production systems
Flexible options

Financing and leasing options to consider

The structure should reflect how the equipment will be used, how long it is expected to remain productive and the cash-flow needs of the business.

01

Equipment purchase financing

Discuss acquisition financing suited to eligible commercial assets, their estimated useful life and the business profile.

02

Equipment leasing alternatives

Review possible leasing arrangements and end-of-term responsibilities when these fit the equipment and program.

03

Working-capital considerations

Separate equipment financing from business working-capital needs; funding availability and suitability depend on the program.

Prepare for the conversation

What to prepare for an initial review

A few details about the business and equipment help make the initial conversation productive.

  • Production project pipeline, client contracts and historical revenue
  • Itemized camera or equipment quote and expected upgrade cycle
  • How much of the equipment will be owned versus rented to productions
  • Whether the equipment is new, refurbished or previously owned

Exact documentation depends on the financing provider and transaction. Please do not send Social Security numbers or sensitive banking information by ordinary email.
