Governor’s Housing Conference Creating & Financing New Business September 27, 2013
6 C’s of Credit Evaluation • Character • Capacity (cash flow) • Capital • Collateral • Conditions • Common Sense
Character (Personal Credit) • Integrity of the borrower • Personal payment history • Willingness to repay.
Character (Personal Credit) Con’t. • Fair Isaac Corp. (FICO) is the company that originally developed the credit scoring methodology we use today. • On the next slide below are the financial behaviors and related factors along with the percentage weighting that each contributes to an overall credit score
FICO • 35% - An individual's history of making credit payments on time • 30% - The total amount of debt being carried along with available credit • 15 % - The age of an individual's open credit lines (more history is better) • 10% - The frequency with which someone applies for new credit • 10% - Wild card factors such as the types of credit lines
Capacity (Cashflow) • Borrower’s ability to repay loan • Debt to equity(leverage) ratio • Net excess (cash reserve)
Conditions • Macro and micro economic environment • Industry conditions & trends • Owners experience and length of time in industry
Conditions, Con’t. Porter’s 5 Forces • “3 forces” from “horizontal” competition: • Threat of substitute products • Threat of established rivals • Threat of new entrants • “2 forces” from “vertical” competition: • The bargaining power of suppliers • The bargaining power of customers.
Collateral • Secondary source of repayment • Commercial or residential property…..(with unencumbered equity) • Business assets (i.e.: account receivables, inventory, FF&E) • Cash value life insurance or marketable securities
Collateral, Con’t. • Example: Commercial or Residential Property • Market Value of Property = $1,000,000 • 80% of Market value = $800,000 • Current Mort. Balance = $500,000 • Available for Collateral = $300,000
Collateral, Con’t. • Account receivables aging less than 90 days – 50 to 80% advance rate. • Business assets (i.e.: office equipment, vehicles, and inventory) – 20 to 60% advance rate.

Providers of Capital • Commercial banks are only one source of capital for businesses. Borrowers should have a balanced mix. • Owner’s equity • Vendor credit • Equipment leases • Landlord concessions • CDC financing – US SBA 504 program • Seller financing
Corporate Cash Flow Template, Con’t. Typically, we look to see global cash flow coverage of 2.00:1 as that indicates that there is sufficient cash flow not only to service existing and proposed debt levels (corporate and personal), but to continue a reasonable lifestyle.
Cash Flow Takeaways • Business should be able to cover its debt service on a standalone basis – typically like to see at least 1.25:1 business cash flow coverage. • 3-years of historical cash flow coverage is preferred – an indication of sustainability • If the owner takes a substantial sum out of the business in salary and/or distributions, banks will look at personal income as well – called Global Cash Flow analysis.
Personal Income Analysis • In cases where the owner is taking a substantial amount of income from the business in salary and/or distributions, Bank’s will do “Global Cash Flow” analysis which incorporates the owner’s / Guarantor’s income (and personal debt service). This is typical in many medical and legal practices. • Personal debt service is considered for this calculation. • The following personal income is considered: • Salaries and wages • Interest income • Dividend / Distribution income • Net operating income (NOI) on rental properties (add back depreciation and amortization as well as interest expense).
