Overview

Direct Lending for New Hampshire operators.

Direct lending is non-bank, privately negotiated debt provided to middle-market companies. It bridges the gap between bank syndicated debt and high-yield bonds — typically with tighter covenants, faster execution, and more flexibility on structure than the public markets. Summit arranges senior secured, unitranche, second-lien, holdco, and structured equity-debt hybrids for both sponsor-backed and non-sponsored borrowers.

In New Hampshire, direct lending demand is concentrated in manufacturing and healthcare — sectors where Summit's lender bench has deep underwriting history. We structure deals against New Hampshire bank deposits, AR, and equipment, and execute documentation under the state's commercial finance rules.

Whether you operate in Manchester, Nashua, or a secondary market, the same desk handles intake, term-sheet negotiation, and funding — so New Hampshire operators get institutional execution without local-bank delays.
