Unlock Capital Now: Turn Owned Equipment Into 2026 Budget Flexibility

As firms begin planning their 2026 budgets, many are facing the same challenge: how to fund important initiatives without adding strain to next year’s bottom line. One powerful yet underused strategy is a sale-leaseback, a way to turn previously purchased equipment into immediate working capital.

By leasing back assets your firm already owns, you can inject cash into the business quickly, without giving up the tools your teams rely on.

What Qualifies?

Sale-leasebacks are not limited to one type of equipment. If your firm owns any of the following, you may be able to convert those assets into liquidity:

• Audiovisual and presentation systems

• Networking gear and IT infrastructure

• Copiers and multifunction devices

• Firm-issued laptops and mobile devices

• Software licenses

• Office furniture and modular systems

If the equipment is still in use and in good condition, it could be a candidate for a structured lease, putting capital back on your books without disrupting daily operations.

Why Now?

Budget planning often brings competing priorities. A sale-leaseback gives firms a way to fund wish-list projects, long-delayed upgrades, or team-wide refreshes without cutting into new spend.

Consider using the returned capital to:

• Jumpstart initiatives that might otherwise get delayed

• Create budget room for additional proposals

• Offset increased costs elsewhere in the 2026 plan

• Maintain strong cash flow going into Q1

Rather than making difficult tradeoffs, firms can reallocate existing value; no need to postpone investments just because capital is tied up in equipment.

A Strategic Financing Move

Sale-leasebacks are not just about short-term funding. They’re part of a smarter approach to asset management. Leasing offers structured payments, better visibility, and lifecycle alignment, helping your team plan refreshes more effectively and avoid one-time disruptions down the road.
