Reading the record

What Sabre Finance’s numbers say

Sabre Finance sits in the long tail of the SBA lending field, having approved 88 loans for a gross total of $15.1M since fiscal 2010. Its median loan of $148,600 is close to the $180,000 national median.

The median initial note rate across its 7(a) approvals is 10.50%, 3.75 points above the national median of 6.75%. Rate medians drawn across fifteen years reflect the mix of loan sizes and vintages a lender wrote as much as its pricing posture - a lender that grew fastest during a high-rate stretch will look expensive here even if its spread was ordinary.

Roughly 34% of its approvals went to businesses the SBA classified as new rather than existing, against 11% nationally - a meaningfully greater appetite for startups than the average SBA lender.
