Why an Inperium Partnership

Payroll

The team needed help consistently meeting payroll. Financial inconsistency had created an environment where several group homes were not able to serve at their full capacity, which further contributed to inconsistent income.

Debt

Large lines of credit and mortgages amounted to over $2.4 million in debt, which they were struggling to operate under.

Documentation Errors

The organization’s line of credit borrowing base certificates contained material errors and misstatements, while books of record were understating losses reported to the board. The team struggled to adapt to a fee-for-service model.

How Inperium helped

Stabilizing

Inperium offered the organization a loan to meet payroll needs and stabilize operations. Meanwhile, Advancing Opportunities voted to approve an interim management team provided by Inperium.

Securing a Path Forward

Inperium’s management team negotiated contract advances for the organization, further stabilizing their financial situation and setting them up for profitability.

Financial Independence

Management helped the organization meet the new fee-for-service model, and within a few months, Advancing Opportunities was creating enough cash flow to cover payroll and operating costs.

Process and steps

1

Inperium loans the organization $400,000 to make payroll. Advancing Opportunities approves an interim management team provided by Inperium.

2

Inperium’s management team meets with the State of New Jersey Division of DDD to request $350,000 in contract advances.

3

Inperium works to right-size the organization to meet a new fee-for-service model, setting them up for future success and compliance.

4

By the end of the calendar year, Advancing Opportunities was financially stable, covering their own payroll and operating expenses.

Results

After partnering with Inperium, Advancing Opportunities successfully negotiated the termination of two unnecessary leases, paid off lines of credit, loans, and mortgages, and settled all state advances. They’ve been able to open three new group homes to increase revenue and serve more people. Advancing Opportunities is now financially stable and serving their community according to their mission.
