Factoring companies buy unpaid invoices from businesses for immediate cash, taking on the job of collecting those payments in exchange for a fee. Think of it like selling an IOU at a discount to a buyer who gives you cash now instead of waiting; this speeds up cash flow but reduces profit on those sales. Investors watch a company’s use of factoring because heavy reliance can signal tight liquidity or higher financing costs, while judicious use can improve working capital and growth capacity.
