60 WHAT WAS OUR INVESTMENT FROM

61 INVESTMENT WHAT WERE THE OPTIONS?

62 OWNERS’ REQUIREMENTS Desire to “substantially grow” the business Growth was only possible with significant investment Not to be “endlessly” repaying debt Present a well capitalised business to the market No personal guarantees being offered A genuine belief that owning a smaller percentage of a much larger entity is better and more secure than owning a larger percentage of a smaller entity

63 MAINSTREAM LENDERS? NO! Debtor book already taken No fixed assets of any material value No personal guarantees available Therefore, no security to offer mainstream lenders which is a requirement

64 INVESTMENT In order to raise the required finance AND meet our requirements our decision was 50% Equity and a 50% Mezzanine Finance In total: £600,000

69 THE NUMBERS SPEAK FOR THEMSELVES! Could we have done this without investment? … NO

70 EXPERIENCE OF

71 General opinion that Equity Funders seek to “control” the business What is our experience with FY? Initial high level of control (lasting 3 months) Imposition of high level reporting - different to what we were used to Once FY had seen the business was running well – very little control Quote from Envirodoor’s FY Portfolio Manager: “This is your business, not ours. You run it in the way you want it run. I just want to make sure that we receive a return in 5 years and that you don’t go bust in the meantime.”

72 FY’s Impact on business New reporting measures - Initially a “pain” but only because it was “new” to us BUT, once everyone in the business were used to the reporting systems: FY’s requirements provided the business with: excellent reporting systems new KPIs to help run the business and assist it to grow easy analysis of key areas of the business using “dashboards” made the business easier to manage Honest Appraisal: “FY’s input and requirements have been a huge help to the business and not a hindrance”

73 OUR FUTURE WITH

74 Need to repay loan and give return on investment! BUT IN ADDITION TO THIS: Envirodoor has ambitious acquisition plans “£1.2million available to Envirodoor in 2014 for further growth” from FY It is hoped and intended that FY will support Envirodoor in both its strategic acquisitions in 2014 AND its organic growth plans
