Optimize your Stratus solution by harnessing the power of financing from Key Equipment Finance.

Improved Cash-Flow Management

• Payments are fixed in amount during the term of the lease, so you can structure payments to meet your budgetary needs.
• Use your cash resources or credit lines for your core business or short-term liquidity needs instead.

Investment Protection

• Financed equipment can be expanded or upgraded during the term of the lease. A small change in the lease payment can get you a major change in your equipment.
• Also, flexible payment structures allow you to match financing to your project's timeline. You decide how long you wish to have the equipment.

100% Financing

• A lease allows financing of all products, software and most services – such as maintenance, training, consulting and freight – sold by Stratus Technologies.
• In addition, third-party products that are part of your equipment solution may be included in the financing.

Savings on Down Payments

• Avoid a large down payment – with leases you generally make only the first and last payments at the start of the lease.

Additional Source of Funds

• Financing equipment is a great alternative to using existing capital or bank lines. When capital funds are not available, an operating lease structure may allow acquisition of a system.
• Avoid financial covenants and other traditional loan requirements, such as compensating balances, client list reviews, and cash-flow projections.

Financial Reporting

• Operating leases can keep assets off the balance sheet and therefore improve productivity ratios. Productivity improvements come from using equipment, not from holding a piece of paper indicating you have title.
