FlexShopper Updates Status of Rights Offering
31 January 2025 - 12:00AM
FlexShopper, Inc. (Nasdaq: FPAY), a prominent
national online lease-to-own retailer and payment solutions
provider, today announced an update to its previously disclosed
rights offering. FlexShopper shareholders who participated in the
unit subscription that closed on January 10, 2025, are now eligible
to participate in the Series A, B, and C rights. Details of which
can be found in the body of this press release.
As a result of the initial unit subscription,
FlexShopper raised approximately $12 million of proceeds,
consisting of $9.4 million in gross proceeds from the subscription
and the conversion of $2.5 million of the Company’s subordinated
debt with NRNS Capital Holdings LLC. The $9.4 million in gross
proceeds was used to pay down borrowings under FlexShopper’s credit
agreement with Waterfall Asset Management, LLC. As a result of
these actions, FlexShopper estimates that the initial unit
subscription would have been approximately 15% accretive to
pro-forma earnings per share for the 2024 third quarter.
“The outcome of the initial unit subscription
demonstrates the accretive nature of our efforts to equitize our
balance sheet,” said Russ Heiser, CEO of FlexShopper. “We are
approaching the Series A, B, and C rights offerings from a position
of strength and I am excited to provide investors with an update on
our financial performance.”
