Wingspire backs metal finishing firm with $45M in first-out financing
What's the deal? Wingspire Capital provided $45 million in first-out secured financing to an unnamed provider of metal surface finishing solutions for mission-critical components. The facility comprises a $10 million revolver and a $35 million term loan.

Where the money goes: The company will use the proceeds to refinance existing debt and add liquidity. Wingspire said the deal gives the borrower "enhanced liquidity and financial flexibility to support its continued growth."
