Investment thesis

Montage Capital offers growth debt as a less dilutive and faster alternative to equity financing. It targets capital-efficient companies with solid growth and an annual revenue run rate of at least $3M, providing term debt from $500K to $5M (or more with partners), customized to a company's needs. Its loan product lets early stakeholders retain control and ownership, and does not require institutional equity support. Capital can be made available in weeks rather than the months typical of equity rounds.
