Book excerpt: Business and Industry Guaranteed Loans - Tangible Balance Sheet Equity (US Rural Business Regulation) (RBS) (2018 Edition) The Law Library presents the complete text of the Business and Industry Guaranteed Loans - Tangible Balance Sheet Equity (US Rural Business Regulation) (RBS) (2018 Edition). Updated as of May 29, 2018 In this final rule the Rural Business-Cooperative Service (the Agency) amends existing regulations relating to Business and Industry (B&I) loans made or guaranteed by the Agency by modifying the provisions that address the evaluation of credit quality. Changes to these underwriting provisions were originally proposed on January 16, 2004. The scope of this final rule is more limited than originally proposed but also implements a change not originally discussed in the proposed rule. Specifically, in the case of the refinancing of USDA or other Federal agency debt only, the Agency is modifying the definition of tangible balance sheet equity to include the off balance sheet value of tangible assets to the extent of the difference between the depreciated book value of real property assets and their current market value supported by an appraisal or the original book value, whichever is less. In these limited cases, the adjusted tangible balance sheet equity will also include qualified subordinated debt owed to the owner. As stated above, these adjustments to the equity calculation will apply only in cases where the Agency is asked to guarantee a refinancing of outstanding debt currently owed to or guaranteed by a Federal agency, including the Small Business Administration. The intended effect of this action is to facilitate Agency guarantees of certain refinancing loans that otherwise would not meet the equity requirements because the financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles do not reflect the current market value of real property assets owned by the borrower. In the case of all direct or guaranteed loan applications, the tangible net equity calculation may include a restricted universe of qualified intellectual property. The Agency is also increasing the equity requirements applicable to energy businesses.
