What is a Frontier Communications Receivable Put Option?
When a supplier receives a purchase order from Frontier Communications, or any company, credit lines and payment terms are established. The supplier invests money to manufacture or acquire the goods and absorbs the cost of salaries, overhead, and pays for shipping to deliver the goods to the client. This is done well before payment is made from the customer. Often times suppliers will “self insure” the goods, meaning, they will ship the goods without any payment protection and take a loss should there be a default. Sometimes suppliers don’t realize that a credit put option can be purchased to hedge their risk, and other times suppliers chose to absorb the risk themselves. Suppliers who self insure is an indication that the customer represents a small portion of the supplier’s overall business. For other companies whose relationship with the customer represents a large portion of their business, particularly without a credit put option in place, a bankruptcy default by the customer could be devastating.
A Frontier Communications Receivable Put Option is a contract between the supplier and a third party “boutique” financial firm who will buy the claim from the supplier if Frontier Communications were to file bankruptcy. A contract is established at the prevailing rate depending on risk and market volatility. Fees are paid based on the rate and length of the term. If a bankruptcy event were to occur during the term of the contract period, the supplier would be paid 100% of the contract value (exposed open receivables) at a predetermined time after the bankruptcy court has confirmed the supplier is a named creditor on the bankruptcy petition.
A Frontier Communications Receivable Credit Put Option can be an effective way for a company to leverage the financial capacity of a third party while protecting the safety of their bottom line. In the absence of credit insurance – which is not available to cover companies that credit insurers deem high risk – AR puts can mean the difference between a supplier taking an irreversible hit to their cash flow or remaining solvent if a bankruptcy event took place.
