  24. Leveraging Strategies

  25. Assumptions • Current: • Established 48% • Early-Stage 38% • Start-Up 14% • Borrowers • All strategies use same three products • All strategies can be done in isolation or combined • All strategies leverage Board’s $3.5 million into $10 million of loanable funds on a sustainable basis • Target: • Established 50% • Early-Stage 30% • Start-Up 20%

  26. FINANCE PROGRAMBusiness Model Assets Mezzanine loans Deferred payment loans Borrowers Senior below-market loans Cash is converted into “earning assets” by making recycling loans and investments 2. Debt and equity represents cash that can be invested and loaned. Capital Sources Debt Equity • 1 Institutions make debt • and equity • investments in exchange • for interest or shares. Liabilities/Capital

  27. New Markets Tax Credit • A new federal incentive program under which taxpayers are allowed to reduce their federal income tax payments by 39 percent of the amount invested in a qualifying Community Development Entity (CDE)– a for-profit organization that makes business loans and investments in low-income areas.

  28. New Markets Tax Credit Investors Invests $30 million in exchange for $11.7 Million (39%) NMTC Lender CDE Board Makes $10 million market-rate loan Makes $10 million long term loan (funded over 3 years)

  29. New Markets Tax Credit • Sources of Funds • Investors that expressed interest in purchasing NMTCs such as: • Enterprise Social Investment Corporation • Bank of America • Bear Stearns • Leverage • Base Case: 5 to 1, Best Case: 5 to 1 • Return on Investment • Base Case: 32.98%, Best Case: 33.30%

  30. Loan Guaranty • A risk-sharing partnership between CIWMB and one or more existing small business loan guarantors – preferably with a California Financial Development Corporation (FDC) that provide guaranties of up to 80 percent on small business bank loans of up to $350,000.

  31. Loan Guaranty 3. Provides up to $12 million in loans Lenders Borrowers 2. Provides up to $12 million in guarantees 1. Contributes $3 million Small Business Expansion Fund Board

  33. Loan Sale • Selling loans to secondary market investors, such as the Community Reinvestment Fund, and using the cash to make more loans. Interest rates on the loans would be structured so that loans would be sold at a premium.

  34. Loan Sale 2. Gives Board up to $3 million in notes RASP Borrowers 1. Makes up to $3 million in loans per quarter 4. Gives up $3 million in cash for relending 3. Sells up to $3 million in loans per quarter Investor

  36. Equivalent Equity Investments • Forming a financing partnership with an established non-profit Certified Development Financial Institution (CDFI) that would agree to use funds obtained through PRIs, low-interest loans that foundations provide, or EQ2s, long-term, low interest loans made by commercial banks to community development organizations.

  37. Equivalent Equity Investments Borrower Makes $50 million in recycling loans EQ2/PRI Investor Board CDFI Provides $10 million loan or recoverable grant Invests $10 million Provides $30 million credit line Bank

  38. Equivalent Equity Investments • Sources of Funds • Organizations that have made EQ2 or PRI investments such as: • Ford Foundation • Citibank • F.B. Heron Foundation • Leverage • Base Case: 5 to 1, Best Case: 5 to 1 • Return on Investment • Base Case: 0.06%, Best Case: 12.50%

  39. Comparison of Four Strategies (+) Above Average, (0) Average, (-) Below Average

  40. Performance Against Criteria • Financing capacity: Leveraging ratio ranges from 5:1 to 19:1. • Financial stability: Loan-loss reserves, blend of below-market rate and market interest rates produce adequate cash flows to finance losses and to sell loans at no less than “par”. • Market responsiveness: Proposed loan products respond to needs of different recycling companies • Customer friendliness: Use of intermediaries can reduce loan approval and processing times. • Affordability: Below-market rates, extended loan terms and deferral of interest and principal payments will reduce loan repayment burdens.
