Key Terms

sale–leaseback financial

A sale–leaseback is a deal where a company sells an asset—usually real estate or equipment—to get cash and then immediately rents it back so it can keep using it, like selling your house and signing a lease to stay living there. It matters to investors because it boosts short-term cash and can change ongoing costs and reported debt, which affects how a company’s financial health, cash flow and valuation are viewed.
