Film Finance

Debt Financing Solutions.

At Planet X, we provide structured production finance designed to close funding gaps efficiently and responsibly

Loans Against Film Tax Credits

We offer cash-flow facilities secured against government-backed film and television tax incentives. These loans allow producers to access anticipated rebate or credit value during production rather than waiting until post-completion reimbursement.
Key characteristics:

• Secured against verified, eligible tax credit claims.
• Structured in line with jurisdictional regulations and audit requirements.
• Designed to improve production cash flow without equity dilution.
• Repaid directly upon receipt of the tax rebate.

This enables producers to maximise available incentive value while maintaining financial control of the project.

Gap Loans Secured Against Pre-Sales

We also provide gap loans secured against executed pre-sale agreements.Where distributors have contracted minimum guarantees payable on delivery, Planet X can advance funds against those agreements, enabling production to proceed without delay.

These facilities:

• Are secured against signed territorial distribution contracts
• Provide liquidity prior to delivery-triggered payments
• Sit within a structured recoupment framework
• Reduce reliance on additional equity

Our underwriting approach is disciplined and market-driven, ensuring that debt exposure remains proportionate to the project’s commercial profile.

Planet X’s objective is simple: to deliver transparent, structured finance that enables independent films to close funding confidently and reach market without unnecessary
