[headlines] ### Press Release ########################### Sun Setting a Legacy: PEAC Solutions Celebrates the Retirement Mount Laurel, NJ –– PEAC Solutions announces the upcoming retirement of Tibor Horvath, Senior Vice President, from his full-time role as the Global Lead in the Construction, Transportation, and Industrial (CT&I) Division, effective July 31st, 2025. A respected veteran in equipment finance, Horvath is concluding a distinguished four-decade career and transitioning into a consultant for PEAC, focusing on building the Material Handling and Forklift business sectors.
“His knowledge, leadership, and strong work ethic have played a crucial role in establishing PEAC Solutions as a leader in the construction industry. Less than three years ago, when we launched PEAC, we had minimal visibility or presence in the market. Thanks to Tibor's dedication, we are now recognized as one of the leading global leasing companies in this sector." Horvath joined PEAC in 2022 during a time of strategic expansion. His focus on building scalable vendor relationships has positioned PEAC as a premier financing partner across the CT&I space. Under his leadership, this business segment grew from $125 million in volume in 2022 to $340 million in 2025, and he played a direct role in on boarding over 20 new vendor partners during that time. Before joining PEAC, Horvath held executive leadership roles at several global finance institutions, contributing to his reputation as one of the industry’s most well-rounded and respected voices.
Throughout his time at PEAC, Horvath has been more than just a leader – he’s been a trusted mentor and advocate for his team and partners. His global perspective, deep industry expertise, and people-first leadership style will leave a legacy at PEAC and within the equipment finance community.
The leadership team and employees of PEAC Solutions extend our heartfelt gratitude to Tibor for his outstanding contributions. Horvath will continue to share his expertise and provide strategic guidance to PEAC Solutions. This shift marks not only the culmination of a remarkable career but also the beginning of a new way for Horvath to support PEAC's growth and future initiatives.

The case, EpicentRx, Inc. v. Superior Court (July 21, 2025), overturns the 2019 Handoush decision, which had held that such clauses were invalid if they deprived California litigants of their right to a jury. That ruling had created uncertainty for lenders and lessors who rely on out-of-state forums to avoid jury trials in California, where juries often favor borrowers. The Supreme Court clarified that California’s jury trial right applies only in California courts and does not override a valid agreement to litigate elsewhere. The decision restores confidence in using forum selection clauses as a tool to manage litigation risk. Bottom line: Lenders and lessors can once again count on having their disputes heard in their chosen forum—even if it means no jury. While the decision limits the ability to use the absence of a jury trial as a standalone argument, it does not foreclose other public policy challenges.
[headlines] Leasing and Finance Help Wanted [headlines] Originators Are Hunters The most valuable originators in the commercial equipment finance and leasing industry are hunters—those who proactively seek out and build relationships with vendors and end-users that yield high-quality assets. These top producers thrive on the chase. They approach the market with confidence and enthusiasm, taking genuine pride in winning new business. In contrast, most salespeople operate as account managers and processors. While managing existing relationships and handling inbound transactions are essential functions, they rarely lead to extraordinary results. Becoming a top performer requires a willingness to hunt. The hesitation for many is a lack of confidence and product mastery. True hunters possess a deep understanding of the solutions they offer, and they take pride in helping prospects realize the value those solutions bring. They are passionate advocates for their company’s offerings and are eager to share their insights. Hunters don’t wait—they initiate. They engage. They expand the footprint. It may be time to ask yourself:
The choice is yours. Embrace the hunt or manage the desk. Wheeler Business Consulting is working with individual originators and sales teams throughout the industry to ensure that they are well positioned in the market, capturing their fair share of business, and outperforming the competition.

[headlines] When It's Time to Move On
Know when to cut the cord. It happens in business, sports, you current job, and anything else that involves leadership. Once you start going down the road of hope versus certainty, you must be willing to get out. I see it with deals that I negotiate and with interpersonal relationships. Once they start hoping that that person will come back to them or that deal may close if we do this, it’s too late. You must be proactive versus worrying about it after the fact; it should have been done six months ago. The most important decisions a leader can make is understanding when to get out. You don't want to be the person who always "buys high, sells low. “You want to be the person who "buys low, sells high." You don't want to be on the downward trajectory. Your career is more important than the job you have now.
