Imagine a world where companies grow 30% a year

Most of our clients live in that world already, with 20-50% growth typical (and yes, some go well beyond that). But if you think that’s a comfortable place to be, you’d be wrong.

Sustaining that level of growth while maintaining enough cash is incredibly hard. And ironically, that growth still isn’t fast enough for most VCs - so their doors stay shut. Banks won’t even pick up the phone.

I understand the VCs’ logic: they already have companies growing faster in their portfolio, so that’s where their attention goes. But zoom out to a societal level and the outcome is absurd - we end up starving some of our best businesses simply because they’re not growing fast enough.

Yet from a credit perspective, these companies are often as good as it gets. They’ve had to make hard decisions on cost, which means:

• They’re usually at or near profitability

• Their growth is more sustainable

• Their products are stronger because they’ve been forced to prioritise what works

But without access to capital, that growth becomes harder to maintain.

Some were too early to market. Others scaled too fast and shed unprofitable revenue when they retrenched. Some pivoted multiple times before finding a dependable model. And many in defense face painfully slow procurement cycles.

Sound familiar? We’d love to help - and better still, we’ll work to minimise your dilution as founders.
