Alliance Funding Group Acquires Pinnacle Capital Partners

Alliance Funding Group (AFG) acquired Pinnacle Capital Partners, an independent specialty finance and leasing company based in Tacoma, WA.

Founded in 2000, Pinnacle is an industry specialist with a focus on the beverage, dental lab, construction, and specialty vehicle markets in addition to working capital solutions. As a direct originator, the Pinnacle team brings a full-service platform with deep industry knowledge and expertise.

AFG, based in Tustin, California, is an independent specialty finance company with core strengths in small ticket and middle-market equipment leases and short-term working capital solutions. In addition to its headquarters in Orange County, AFG also has an operations and sales office in Portsmouth, New Hampshire and a sales office in Los Angeles, California.

“I am very excited about our partnership with AFG and the alignment of two companies that will originate over $200 million in its first year,” stated Brent Hall, Pinnacle’s founder and president. “Pinnacle will be able to leverage the resources of a larger company while bringing to AFG a tenured management team and a developed sales platform in the northwest. Pinnacle will become a part of Alliance Funding Group and will operate under the AFG brand while still utilizing its private label brands in core markets.”

The acquisition brings together a management team with over 100 years of experience and a collective sales organization that is national in scope with expertise in small ticket, middle-market, and working capital products.

“Both culturally and synergistically, this combination creates a specialty finance and working capital platform that is poised for real growth and success,” said Brij Patel, Founder and CEO of AFG. “I have known Brent Hall for many years through the industry and I’m truly excited to have someone of his caliber along with Pinnacle’s organization to add to AFG’s current tenured sales and management team.”

Alliance Funding Group Expands Into Federal Financing; Funds Initial Transaction.

TUSTIN, Calif., November 20, 2019 (Newswire.com) – Alliance Funding Group (“AFG”), in collaboration with a prime contractor and AFG’s investor, completed funding of an approximate $4.8 million multi-function device refresh for a major U.S.-based military installation.

The federal financing helped the military completely refresh its full contingent of aged multi-function devices with over 700 new devices. The financing was in conjunction with a broader services solution, allowing the installation of new devices, maintenance and supplies on a managed service, firm, fixed-price, five-year basis.

The financial solution is the culmination of a broad-based education process, which AFG has entered into to better understand and penetrate the federal finance discipline, as it continues to expand its unique niche into differentiated industry disciplines. “We have partnered with an industry-leading expert to develop a dedicated, financial solutions-based ‘go to market’ team to take advantage of a very large, yet underserved market,” mentioned Brij Patel, President of AFG. “It is AFG’s intent to fully understand and capitalize on this market opportunity, such that we can appropriately educate our investor market while seeking to partner with key federal prime contractors and help the federal end-user market achieve its capital equipment and technology requirements.”

“This financing will act as a catalyst to more quickly propel AFG forward in this very unique space. It not only acts as a resume underpinning, but the ‘hands-on’ learning, the documentation building, the understanding of the market drivers is something that will accelerate this endeavor and act to broaden our own revenue base,” stated Mike Willerer, AFG’s Director of Operations. “I can’t speak highly enough for the collaboration with our prime contractor and our investing partners. I hope and expect that we can parlay this into a deeper relationship by bringing capital, service and financial structural ideas to this market.”
