GTFSolutions Introduces Permanent Take-Out Financing Support for Brokers and Agents Across Global Markets
In today's volatile lending environment, many projects stall after construction or initial development due to a lack of exit financing. GTFS aims to solve this critical gap by helping financial professionals secure permanent, long-term debt refinancing solutions, backed by institutional funding sources and enhanced by credit instruments such as Standby Letters of Credit (SBLCS), Bank Guarantees (BGS), and Conditional Approval Letters.
What Is Permanent Take-Out Financing?
Permanent Take-Out Financing is a long-term loan that replaces short-term or interim financing, such as bridge loans or construction debt. Typically used after project completion or stabilization, take-out financing allows borrowers to:
Lock in lower interest rates
Extend repayment terms (10–30 years)
Exit high-cost short-term facilities
Unlock additional equity for expansion
Increase project value through stabilized capitalization
This type of financing is critical for commercial real estate, infrastructure, energy development, industrial facilities, and other capital-intensive projects.
GTFS: Partnering with Brokers to Close the Loop
'Most brokers can secure short-term construction or bridge capital for their clients, but when transitioning into long-term take-out financing, they often hit a wall,' said Willard Dunne, Head of Operations at GTFSolutions. 'We're here to fill that void — and help brokers look like heroes in the process.'
GTFS provides brokers with structured support for permanent financing by coordinating with international banks, private lenders, and institutional funds. This allows for tailored loan products that suit a wide range of sectors, including:
Commercial real estate and mixed-use developments
Renewable energy and power plant projects
Port, airport, and transportation infrastructure
Healthcare and educational facilities
Hotel and resort construction
Large-scale residential projects
Case Study: From Bridge Loan to $35 Million Take-Out Facility
In early 2025, a broker representing a property development firm in British Columbia approached GTFS. Their client had completed a $28 million residential tower using a short-term construction facility but could not refinance due to the bank's tightening credit terms.
GTFS reviewed the project, verified revenue streams, and arranged a $35 million take-out facility from a European institutional lender, using a 12-month SBLC as credit enhancement. This allowed the client to pay off the high-interest bridge loan, free up $3.5 million in equity, and begin a second development phase.
'The take-out financing from GTFS was a game-changer,' said the broker. 'It gave our client breathing room — and gave us credibility with the lender and the investor group.'
Key Features of GTFS Take-Out Financing
GTFS's approach to take-out lending is uniquely structured around risk mitigation and client success. Key program benefits include:
Loan amounts from $5 million to USD 250 million

like SBLCS, BGS, and Conditional Approval Letters Available globally across North America, Latin America, Europe, the Caribbean, Asia, and the Middle East
Each financing package is custom-built for the project, with flexibility in collateral structures, repayment schedules, and jurisdictional considerations.
Broker Support and Participation
GTFS provides white-label, back-end support for brokers, ensuring they retain the client relationship while accessing global capital markets through GTFS's network. Services include:
Loan structuring and feasibility reviews
Preparation of funding memoranda
Lender matching and underwriting assistance
Credit enhancement advisory (e.g., SBLC, Proof of Funds)
Broker commission plans and co-branding options
'This isn't a cookie-cutter lending desk,' said Emily Johnson, Senior Credit Analyst at GTFS. 'We work directly with brokers to build solutions that make sense. Our job is to help them close — and get paid.'
Who Should Apply?
GTFS encourages applications from brokers and agents working on behalf of:
Clients with completed construction or stabilization
Projects exiting high-interest bridge or private debt
Developments requiring recapitalization or equity release
Real estate portfolios need consolidation into long-term debt
Owners looking to refinance for expansion or sale
Projects must demonstrate viability, operational cash flow (where applicable), and precise documentation. GTFS will assist in preparing complete lender-ready packages.
Compliance, Credibility, and Confidence
All GTFS take-out lending services are conducted with complete adherence to international compliance regulations. Borrowers and projects undergo:
KYC/AML checks
Instrument verification (when applicable)
Legal due diligence and escrow controls
Third-party financial audits (when required)
'We're in the business of sustainable capital,' said Linda Martinez, Legal Advisor at GTFS. 'Every deal must pass legal, financial, and ethical muster. Our brokers know they can rely on us to protect their reputation — and their client's future.'

Revised Fiscal Year 2025 Guidance: Net sales of $1.83 billion to $1.88 billion; adjusted EBITDA of $273 million to $283 million; adjusted EPS of $0.50 to $0.60. Warning! GuruFocus has detected 7 Warning Signs with BGS. Release Date: August 04, 2025 For the complete transcript of the earnings call, please refer to the full earnings call transcript. Positive Points B&G Foods Inc (NYSE:BGS) demonstrated sequential improvement in trend and performance in Q2 2025 after a challenging Q1. The company completed two key divestitures, which are expected to sharpen focus, simplify the business, and improve margins and cash flow. The U.S. frozen vegetables business is expected to turn profitable in the second half of 2025, with a projected increase in segment adjusted EBITDA. B&G Foods Inc (NYSE:BGS) is committed to reducing leverage and expects to reduce it to 6x within the next 12 months. Cash flow continues to be strong, with $17.8 million generated in net cash from operations during Q2 2025, up from $11.3 million in Q2 2024. Negative Points Q2 2025 net sales were down 4.5% compared to the previous year, with base business net sales down 4.2%. Adjusted EBITDA for Q2 2025 was $58 million, a decrease of 9.3% compared to the previous year. The frozen and vegetables business unit experienced a significant decline in segment adjusted EBITDA due to higher costs and trade spend. The specialty business unit saw an 8% decline in net sales, primarily due to lower Crisco oil pricing. Selling, general, and administrative expenses increased by 9.4% in Q2 2025 compared to the previous year, impacting overall profitability. Q & A Highlights Q: Bruce, can you clarify the expected decline in core business sales for the second half of 2025? A: Yes, excluding divestitures, we expect base business sales to be down about 1% for the second half. This includes a benefit from the 53rd week, which will add approximately $15 million to $20 million in sales during the fourth quarter. Q: How are you planning to mitigate the impact of tariffs, particularly in the spices and flavor solutions segment? A: We are implementing targeted pricing actions to recover tariff costs, primarily affecting garlic and black pepper sourced from China and Vietnam. There will be some lag due to retailer lead times, but we expect to offset some of the impact with productivity and cost savings efforts. Q: Can you provide more details on the impact of recent divestitures on your guidance for the year? A: The guidance adjustment is primarily due to the divestitures. The outlook for the second half remains consistent with our expectations following the first quarter results. Q: What is the status of your spices and seasonings business, and are you seeing any benefits from increased home cooking? A: The spices and seasonings business is not fully meeting our expectations. We anticipate slight growth in the second half, supported by targeted pricing to recover tariff impacts. The category is benefiting from increased demand for fresh proteins. Q: Are there any plans to change sourcing strategies to mitigate tariff impacts on spices and seasonings? A: We are exploring alternative sourcing options, but most spices are grown in regions already subject to tariffs. We have found some alternative sources for garlic and onion outside of China, but pricing adjustments will still be necessary.

Revenue: $22.7 billion, up 35% year-over-year. Core Loss Per Share: $1.24, showing significant improvement from the previous year. Free Cash Flow: Usage of $200 million, better than expectations due to higher commercial delivery volume and favorable timing of CapEx. Commercial Airplane Deliveries: 150 airplanes in the quarter, 280 in the first half of the year. BCA Revenue: $10.9 billion with an operating margin of -5.1%. BCA Backlog: $522 billion, up more than $60 billion sequentially. BDS Revenue: $6.6 billion, up 10% year-over-year. BDS Operating Margin: 1.7%, showing significant improvement. BGS Revenue: $5.3 billion, up 8% year-over-year. BGS Operating Margin: 19.9%, up 210 basis points compared to last year. Debt Balance: $53.3 billion, down $300 million in the quarter. Cash and Marketable Securities: $23 billion. Warning! GuruFocus has detected 6 Warning Signs with BA. Release Date: July 29, 2025 For the complete transcript of the earnings call, please refer to the full earnings call transcript. Positive Points Boeing Co (NYSE:BA) announced its largest wide-body order ever for up to 210 commercial airplanes, indicating strong market demand. The company delivered 150 commercial jets in the quarter, marking the most deliveries in the second quarter since 2018. Boeing Co (NYSE:BA) achieved a production rate of 38 airplanes per month for the 737 and is on track to request an increase to 42 per month. The 787 program successfully increased its production rate to seven airplanes per month, with stable key performance indicators. Boeing Global Services (BGS) delivered strong financial results with a 19.9% operating margin, reflecting improved commercial and government volume. Negative Points The 737-7 and -10 certification is delayed to 2026 due to prolonged technical solution development for engine anti-ice. Boeing Co (NYSE:BA) reported a core loss per share of $1.24, despite improvements compared to the previous year. Free cash flow was a usage of $200 million in the quarter, reflecting ongoing challenges in working capital management. The 777X program continues to grow inventory as it moves towards entry into service, impacting financials. Boeing Defense and Space (BDS) margins remain low, with ongoing challenges in stabilizing fixed-price development programs. Q & A Highlights Q: Can you explain the $2 billion better performance in free cash flow for the second quarter and how it affects the full-year target? A: Brian West, CFO, explained that the $3 billion figure is a reasonable assumption for the year. The first half free cash flow usage of $2.5 billion exceeded expectations, with the second quarter usage of $200 million being better than anticipated. This was driven by better BCA delivery performance and timing items, including an incremental $700 million from 13 777 deliveries. The third quarter is expected to mirror the second quarter, with a potential $700 million one-time DOJ payment. The fourth quarter is anticipated to be positive, setting up for a strong 2026. Q: How do recent trade agreements and tariffs impact Boeing's order momentum and pricing? A: Kelly Ortberg, CEO, noted that recent trade agreements have been beneficial, particularly the Japan agreement, which includes zero tariffs on imports. The order environment is strong, and Boeing is managing pricing to reflect the constrained environment, which helps offset inflationary cost growth. The focus remains on avoiding retaliatory tariffs with China and maintaining favorable trade terms with Mexico and Canada. Q: What are the long-term production rate plans for the 737 MAX and 787, given the strong demand? A: Kelly Ortberg stated that Boeing is stabilizing the 787 production at seven per month and plans to increase rates as market demand is strong. For the 737 MAX, the current rate is 38 per month, with plans to increase in increments of five, no earlier than six months apart, pending FAA discussions. The focus is on maintaining stability and high-quality production. Q: Can you provide an update on the engine anti-icing issue with the 737-7 and -10? A: Kelly Ortberg explained that the delay is due to unresolved design issues affecting airflow into the engines. The engineering designs have not met expectations, requiring additional design changes to meet de-icing requirements. The certification is now expected in 2026. Q: How is Boeing addressing the challenges in Boeing Defense and Space (BDS) and what is the outlook for margin improvement? A: Kelly Ortberg highlighted that BDS is focused on stabilizing production and executing development programs. Recent contract wins have been cost-plus, avoiding past mistakes of fixed-price development contracts. The goal is to return to high single-digit margins, with active management and derisking of programs being key strategies.
