XYZ Company

Loan Request: PHP 8 million credit line

President & Owner: Robert Santos

Nature of the Business:

Developed, manufactured, and sold scientific medical instruments, needles, and


catheters that allowed rapid and less invasive access to a number of different organs
and vessels. These products represented an alternative to traditional surgical
procedures and allowed analysis or corrective treatment with less risk and trauma and
at a lower cost.

XYZ had experienced extraordinary growth, fueled by heavy spending on research and
development and a rapid expansion of its sales force. Its technical staff was very well
regarded for developing new products. The combination of the innovative products and
a rapidly expanding market resulted in sales growth in excess of 30% per year.

Management met the financing pressures by heavy reliance on short-term credit, by


leasing, instead of buying, some manufacturing facilities, and by establishing a
connection with DEF Company, a leading distribution firm that did not have the
capability to manufacture on its own. DEF Company purchased PHP 12 million of capital
stock of XYZ Company. The four purchases of stock of DEF Company are shown in Table
A.

Mr. Santos was thoroughly dissatisfied with the company’s current loan arrangement
with BBB Bank, from which it had a credit line of PHP 6 million with accounts receivable
and inventory pledged as security. He was perfectly willing to pledge the company’s
accounts receivable, inventory, or anything else that the bank thought would be
desirable security as long as the arrangement was fair to the company and specific
enough so that he could count on having the funds available when he needed them.

A call was made to BBB Bank and learned that its experience with XYZ Company had
been thoroughly unsatisfactory. The company had maintained extremely low balances
with its bank and on several occasions had overdrawn its account. The pattern of
minimal earnings, despite excellent products that were well received in the trade,

1
seemed to be the direct result of Mr. Santos’ determination to spend heavily on
research and development and on marketing.

Upon visiting the XYZ plants, it can be observed that the production process involved
several hundred products typically produced in small lots. Desired inventory levels are
as follows:

• 8 weeks Raw materials storage & processing


• 10 – 12 weeks Finished goods inventory

Mr. Santos has a manual inventory system. He has postponed purchasing a computer-
based inventory control system that will link purchasing, production, and sales because
of the tightness of his cash position. Supplier credit terms is 30 days.

Sales were made to over 1,000 retailing outlets. These accounts had been extended
open lines of credit on net 30 terms without investigation. Most of the hospital orders
were served by DEF Company who is their major distributor. Accounts receivable on
XYZ’s books as of December 31, 2017, included PHP 500,000 due from hospitals,
representing 8.3% of the total. An aging of the receivables was as shown in Table B.
