About TMAC
Built on Relationships Since 1991.
For 35 years, TMAC has paired equipment finance experience with responsive, straightforward service.
Our approach
We start with your situation, not a rate sheet. We listen, structure around the real deal, and move quickly so financing keeps pace with your business. Our aim is to be the easiest finance partner you will work with.
An independent platform
Today TMAC is an independent equipment finance and capital platform, backed by a substantial network of institutional and private capital partners. That independence lets us finance equipment across many industries and structure terms that fit. A dedicated buy/sell desk acquires, structures, and places equipment finance receivables, adding speed and liquidity for our customers, vendors, and capital partners.
The Shibaura relationship
TMAC began as the captive finance arm for Shibaura Machine, and we remain a Long Standing Finance Partner connected to Shibaura. We continue to support Shibaura customers with the same responsive service and dependable execution that has defined those relationships for decades.
In Memory of Our Founder
A legacy built on relationships.
TM Acceptance Corp was founded in 1991 by Gregg Newhuis, on a simple conviction that financing is about relationships. Over more than three decades, his entrepreneurial spirit, deep industry knowledge, and genuine commitment to clients built TMAC's reputation as a trusted, straightforward partner.
Gregg believed in treating people well and structuring financing around what a business actually needed, never a rate sheet. That standard left a lasting impact on the company, its capital partners, and the many customers it served over the years, and it still guides how TMAC works today.
Building on the foundation he laid, TMAC has grown from a single relationship into an independent equipment finance and capital platform serving businesses nationwide, carrying his standard forward into its next chapter.
Today, his son Justin Newhuis helps carry that legacy forward as Strategic Advisor.
"Financing is about relationships."
