Target Stage: We are seeking experienced venture debt providers to fuel accelerated growth between our recently closed Series B round and our projected Series C round.

Capital Purpose: This debt facility will be used exclusively for highly specific, return-generating activities that require immediate capital, such as:

1. Customer Acquisition Cost (CAC) Pre-funding: Covering the up-front sales and marketing expenses needed to onboard large enterprise clients, given our predictable Lifetime Value (LTV).
2. Strategic M&A: Providing dry powder for small, accretive technology acquisitions that immediately enhance our product feature set.
3. Working Capital Optimization: Bridging gaps in cash flow related to large annual contracts (e.g., contracts paid quarterly or semi-annually).

Financial Health: ScaleUp SaaS is a healthy, revenue-generating entity with:

1. $15 Million in Annual Recurring Revenue (ARR).
2. A high Gross Margin (75%+).
3. Predictable cash flows from long-term contracts.
4. A clear LTV:CAC ratio exceeding 4:1.

Funding Structure: We are looking for a $5 Million Term Loan Facility, typically structured with interest-only payments for the first 12-18 months, aligning repayment with future revenue milestones.

Security: This debt will generally be secured by the company's assets (excluding IP) and is a non-dilutive alternative to selling additional equity at this growth stage.

Investor Requirement: We require a proven lender with significant experience in the SaaS venture debt space who understands the nuances of subscription-based financial models.
