What is Business Equipment Leasing?

Equipment leasing lets your business use equipment in exchange for periodic repayments instead of buying it upfront. You don't own the asset, and it doesn't appear on your balance sheet, helping keep your debt-to-equity ratio lower compared to other forms of financing. At the end of the lease term, you typically have the option to return, upgrade, or buy the asset.

Leasing is a flexible, cash flow-friendly way for your business to stay up to date with the latest equipment without tying up capital or taking ownership.

Things To Consider Before Applying

Potential drawbacks to be aware of

  • You don’t own the asset unless a purchase option is available at the end of the lease.
  • Leasing can cost more in the long run compared to buying outright.
  • Lease agreements often have strict terms.
  • Early termination fees may apply.

Questions to ask yourself

  • How quickly is new/upgraded equipment released?

  • Will leasing free up cash for other business priorities?
  • Am I okay with not owning the asset right away?
  • Can I commit to the lease terms for the full agreement period?
