Equipment Leases Inc. Warns Businesses to Secure Financing Now as Oil Price Spike Risk Threatens Lending Conditions

SALT LAKE CITY - Rezul -- Equipment Leases Inc., a national equipment financing firm serving businesses with capital needs ranging from $250,000 to $250 million, today cautioned U.S. business owners to consider securing equipment financing before the current Iran-driven oil price escalation reshapes credit conditions and raises equipment costs.

"We've seen this script before," said Steve Hansen, CEO of Equipment Leases Inc. "In 2022, oil hit $130 a barrel within weeks of the Ukraine invasion. In 2008, we saw $147 before the financial crisis. When oil spikes, lenders get cautious, costs climb, and the window for favorable financing terms closes fast."

The warning comes as Hansen published a detailed economic analysis examining the step-by-step fallout of oil reaching $120 to $200 per barrel - from supply chain disruption and stagflation risk at the lower end to full global recession territory if prices reach $200. The analysis is available at equipmentleases.com.

For businesses that depend on equipment to operate - whether in transportation, manufacturing, construction, food processing, or oil and gas - the advice is straightforward: don't wait.

"Equipment costs are tied directly to energy prices. When oil moves, so do steel, logistics, and manufacturing input costs," Hansen added. "Businesses that secure financing now lock in today's conditions. Those that wait may face a very different lending environment six months from now."

Equipment Leases Inc. has assisted clients through multiple economic downturns and oil price cycles, offering financing solutions that preserve cash flow and provide tax efficiency even during volatile periods.
