A Seventy-five year old manufacturing firm was experiencing substantial losses due to weak market conditions. The Lender had made demand, and was pressuring the Company to repay all debts. Kellogg was engaged in order to:

1. Negotiate a one year extension agreement with the Lender. This allowed the Client to focus on turning operations around.
2. Evaluate financing alternatives, in light of operating losses.
3. Obtain $1.5 Million of new financing from a combination of sources: New Commercial Bank, State supported loan fund, New Equity from two sources. Kellogg prepared the financing books, negotiated deal terms and closed the transactions.

What Our Clients Say

“Dave has now done two tours of duty with Ageless Innovation. When we started the company, we knew we did not yet need a fulltime CFO, but we needed the knowledge and experience of a seasoned finance professional. Dave jumped right in to help us set up our banking relationships, establish our loan with the BDC-RI, set up and populate our systems and most importantly be a strong financial partner for the co-founders. Dave quickly became part of the team and helped steward us through the first couple of years. When the time came to hire a full time CFO, Dave helped with all aspects of the hiring and transition processes making it seamless.

Unfortunately, a year later we were back in the CFO search process and my first call was to Dave. Within hours we were meeting and the next day he was back in the office as our interim CFO helping us with another hiring and transition. Dave jumped back in and we never missed a beat. We still rely on Dave for advice and guidance and he has become a trusted friend to me and to the company.”
