AFP Imaging

AFP Imaging Corp., a NASDAQ listed company based in Elmsford, New York, is a manufacturer of imaging equipment sold worldwide to the medical, dental and publishing industries.

OEM Capital was asked to assist AFP Imaging Corp. in increasing its credit line to secure an acquisition. The company it was seeking to acquire was unprofitable and AFP Imaging Corp. was just beginning to show profits after large losses incurred from restructuring its operations. We helped management prepare a financially sound post-acquisition consolidation program and devised a financial structure attractive to lenders.

OEM Capital’s presentation of the acquisition’s attractiveness showed relatively modest risk while the opportunity’s exposure to a large number of potential lenders caused the company’s existing lender to reconsider the line of credit amount it had initially proposed prior to our involvement. Our work resulted in a loan over 50% higher than the company’s lender was initially prepared to fund.

Our success with AFP Imaging Corp. illustrates that, whether a business is healthy, under performing or distressed, superior results­ can be realized for the shareholders by a well executed approach by merger and acquisition professionals who are knowledgeable about the state of the financial markets and the intentions of its participants.
