12:00 PM Pacific       1:00 PM Mountain

2:00 PM Central       3:00 PM Eastern

Good commercial underwriting is the foundation of solid lending decisions.  Part of that is calculating a borrower’s ability to repay the loan, also known as debt service coverage.  Do you know how to calculate it and which method to use?  Find out more with this timely webinar.

AFTER THIS WEBINAR YOU’LL BE ABLE TO:

• Distinguish between traditional EBITDA and Uniform Credit Analysis (UCA), including key information derived from each
• Confidently describe the debt service coverage ratio within credit presentations and during periodic review, including identification of primary debt service coverage and secondary sources of repayment
• Identify capital expenditure trending in financial statements to better understand the subject entity’s capital expenditure requirements
• Clearly document and identify debt service requirements for various loan types
• Realize the need for transaction-level sensitivity (or stress testing) to understand debt service coverage in adverse conditions

WEBINAR DETAILS

Many community financial institutions rely on traditional EBITDA analysis in determining borrower repayment ability. But does EBITDA provide everything we need to know? What about considerations for capital expenditures and dividends provided to entity ownership? Are we missing key elements which drive the borrower’s ability to generate satisfactory cash to satisfy repayment requirements?  

This presentation will review traditional EBITDA analysis, including adjustments which should be considered to EBITDA in determining borrower repayment ability. It will address the Uniform Credit Analysis, specifically net cash after operations and UCA cash flow coverage. Other debt service coverage considerations, such as the free cash flow method for determining repayment ability, including considerations for capital expenditures and how these expenditures impact the borrower’s repayment ability will be included. 

WHO SHOULD ATTEND?

This informative session will benefit everyone involved in the underwriting and approval of commercial loans, including executive management on the loan approval committee, commercial loan officers, credit analysts, loan underwriters for commercial loans, branch managers with commercial lending authority, loan review staff, and auditors.
