Factoring companies are extremely important for most businesses that conduct manufacturing or are engaged in large-scale inventory transactions. Although there are many alternatives to factoring invoice, especially merchant advance account services, these companies are still very popular with businesses that have unique cash flow needs and large invoices that need to be financed on an ongoing basis. Most factoring companies are able to generate substantial gross margins by providing the specialized lending services.

Within the factoring company’s plan, a well developed three-year profit and loss statement, cash analysis, balance sheet, breakeven analysis, and business ratios page should be developed to showcase to a potential lender or investor the anticipated financial results of the business. Most banks and lenders are generally willing to provide a line of credit to a factoring company in order to to acquire invoices at a discount.

As it relates to opportunities, a factoring company can continually acquired additional rounds of capital in order to further fuel the growth of the business. Additionally, factoring companies can rapidly expand that the entire United States provided that they have the proper online management systems in place. Pertaining to threats, there is very little about this industry that has changed over the past 50 years outside of being able to work with companies on a nationwide basis. There are currently no known pieces of legislation or regulation that would impact the way that a factoring company conducts business.
