Sorry I missed you
Hi there, it’s Andrew from Hermes Capital.
I have not had much success reconnecting with you.
I just need to know whether or not to keep trying. To make it nice and easy for you, reply to my SMS with a simple keystroke and I will know what do to. But please do reply so I can stop calling if you are not interested. Reply with A, B, C, D or E.
A. Stop calling me with attempts to connect but continue to email me.
B. Don’t contact me, remove me from your list. We don’t currently and won’t ever need your help.
C. I want to talk, we need some help, but the timing isn’t right. Keep trying.
D. I would like to schedule a time to talk. We need some help. Please send your calendar link.
E. I forgot who you are. What’s this about?
Thank you.
Regards
Andrew

Funding a mining services business re-boot
Recently, a mining services business dealing with the wet & dry hire of equipment encountered setbacks in the mobilisation of large contracts, after the fleet had been largely either mothballed or retrenched. Despite the long-standing business being historically successful, recent financial data indicated a lack of serviceability – bringing the business to a standstill. The need for funding new equipment, re-certification of mothballed equipment and further working capital was apparent, with a total funding requirement estimated for $1M.
Structuring SME merger and acquisition deals
Hermes was recently approached to consider a Management Buyout of a strongly performing manufacturing business. Despite numerous concerns, Hermes was able to tailor a unique funding solution to help acquire and position an appreciation of the true value of the business.
Wheelhouse, Security & Runway: The Real Deal
In December, Hermes was asked to fund a mining services business with a funding requirement of $6 million, comprising $4 million in term debt and $2 million in debtor finance, for a 12-month period over which time the business would be “turned around”. Hermes applies three key criteria when assessing a funding opportunity, as this month’s case study illustrates. The three criteria can be summed up in three words: wheelhouse, security and runway.
